a-f-r-o - malcolm spoke to me lyrics

[intro: malcolm x]

new bridges must be built
because in the minds of the majority of our people today, africa is too far
so, the only way you and i can point them in that direction is build new bridges
we have to have the type of understanding of africa
and the type of understanding of our people here, in order to build a bridge

[verse]

there’s not a majority of the story that i’m entering
i have to say that i must confess pained memories
slain enemies, every entity that bothers me
has to be puzzles, connected and solvin’ each piece
each one reminds me of a mirror with broken streaks
and each of those streaks are peaks of each part of me
oughta be profiled, denied a good kid
labeled an up+to+no+good kid, a hooligan
i’m soon to be brought up as taught up, but then i’m caught up, in this +
life of mines and the lines i describe
and the rhymes i twist, and the lyrics i fit it with
like a fitted cap, but that’s just an example
teenage years are a sample of the struggle, i’m combusted
touched with is the burst of the bubble
the rubble i step in, the trouble i’m consented with
remember that the best of me is fed up with everything
trust me, that’s no exaggeration
i’m the young man with bad luck facin’ him
i’m the young man, broken tears replacin’ his +
cold dark heart, and broken glass shards
stuck inside his mind, as i combine the hurt
and the words that converse the hurt’ll get worked
to my personality, every person perches over my insanity
’cause i’m perfect in +n+logy
[outro: malcolm x]

a line of communication between the two
and once the lines of communication have been established
and our african brothers can + can + um + stretch forward their hands and reach us
and we can stretch forth our hands and reach them +
why, there’s nothing that this blue+eyed man in this country will be able to do to you and me successfully from that day onward

i don’t think when a man is being criminally treated + that some criminal has the right to tell that man what tactics to use to get the criminal off his back
when a criminal starts misusing me, i am going to use whatever is necessary to get that criminal off my back
don’t blame a cracker in georgia for your injustices + the government is responsible for the injustices!

when you have a philosophy or a gospel + i don’t care whether it’s a religious gospel, a political gospel, an economic gospel, or a social gospel
if it’s not going to do something for you and me right here, right now, to h+ll with that gospel!

so, we have to have a new approach, a new appraisal + and this new appraisal and new approach has to be in tune with the reality of the conditions that we are in, after having + (fade out)
