ask (always seeking knowledge) – ode to the 3rd world lyrics
sit back and reminisce, it’s always been like this
can’t escape the death kiss, given to the ghetto kids
media figured ignorance is bliss, justice went for a p-ss
wounded, wonder where, when and why the world went amiss
i dismiss, this hypocrisy, some like to call it democracy
beautiful idea, yet it doesn’t apply to my poor peer
you smile to me, but why are you carrying a spear
lend me your ear, so you can hear, it’s crystal clear
little boy continue to live in fear, the pain won’t disappear
it happens here, happens in zaire, happens everywhere
from the darkest corner of delhi, all the way to delaware
boy be aware, life ain’t fair, yet no one really seem to care
smell treason in the air, lack of reason, like a forbidden love affair
ghetto kids prepare, waiting for the righteous heir, he ain’t here
‘it’s difficult to free fools from the chains they revere’
couldn’t say it better, that’s why i am quoting voltaire
don’t despair, but dare, to rise like a russian bear
never forget the victims of deir y-ssin, the world is mean
truth is hidden never seen, live on legends of jenin
in our blood, like crack runnin’ through the fiend
even the innocent done sinned, the past you can’t rescind
seems like truth and lies are closely twinned, feel chagrined
the trees will know, if you tell your secrets to the wind
it’s a hint, because these truths the paper wouldn’t print
