Now from A Tribe Called Quest

And i'm here tonight with The Jungle Brothers

And we're about to get into this thing called

Black is Black is Black is Black



Yeah, uh-huh! aah, baby!

Said yeah! ah hah!

Black is Black is Black is Black



In America today, i have to regret to say

Something, Something is not right

And it deals with Black and White

Tell me Mike G is it me?

Nah, it's just society

Filled with propagander, Huh!

Why do we meander, Huh?

In a zone with hate for peace

All of this B.S must cease

All i am is one Black man

In a mighty big White hand

Brother Brother, Sister Sister

If you're Miss or if you're Mister

Listen please to this fact

Black is Black is Black is Black



Black is Black is Black is Black

Black is Black is Black is Black



Way back when in '68

When brothers didn't have it great

They fought back with civil rights

That scarred the soul, it took the sight

The common foe you plainly see

On the streets or on T.V

Segregation was the king

Vietnam was full in swing

Martin Luther had to shout
