poetik - brown brother lyrics

[intro: documentary narrator & poetik]
various conflicting theories have been advanced by scientists — an explanation of the origin of cannibalism. some are of the opinion that it grows from a bleak and savage mind, that on eating an enemy, its desirable qualities were acquired by the consumer. others said revenge, with the chief reason being put first indulgence of human flesh, that the mere k!lling of an enemy was not considered to be of sufficient satisfaction, but by eating him he and all his family were indoubtedly disgraced. the fact that their grandfathers were among the most ravenous cannibals in the history of the world is [?] a source of secret pride. proud to the already+enormous mouths and bush+like hair, the [?] but savage [?] for their brown faces

yeah
alright, look

[verse 1: poetik]
i’m brown like the bandana hangin’ out my backside
brown like the fresh [?] i can’t afford to test drive
brown like the khaki suit that fits me so well
brown like the brother with me sharing my cell
brown like the label on the bottle that i swig from
brown like the nicotine b+tt that i smoke out
brown like coco rice, brown like cleveland
brown like my people eatin’ seconds at the cookout
brown is the ghetto queen that gives me that good love
a troubled life sweeter with a hint of brown sugar
brown like the [?], young homies get they tag on
brown like the blunt i rotate and get your drag on
brown is what they see every time they pull me up
brown skin on my wrist they twist and handcuff
lookin’ at the news, another wanted brown face
the same kind of brown face that they used to [?]
they call me “coconut”, say i’m brown like dirt
brown like the poly slaves they used to blackbird
i’m brown like the choir and the pastor at the church
brown is my blessing, brown is my curse
[chorus: poetik, lamuel and together]
brown brother, never let the past fade out (oh, oh)
remember where we from, we the people from the sun (oh, yeah)
brown brother, more than just your skin tone (oh, yeah)
more than just a child on the [?], you got heart, got soul
brown brother, even whey they knock you down (oh, oh)
never let ’em keep you down, stand tall, rise for our people (oh, yeah)
brown brother, we ain’t the slaves, we the masters (oh, yeah)
the future’s right now, proud polynesian panthers, stand up

[verse 2: poetik]
proud of my heart as i stand tall with honour
like the faith of my soul, yeah, i got it from my mama
brown queen, stay strong like my father
brown king, brown like the fresh prince i watch on tv
brown like the earth when we pour out liquor
remember all the brown angels in the sky no longer with us
some brown like tamasese who got shot down
brown like tamaiti who they got locked down
brown soldiers on the frontline, unity is honour
brown like a blood or crip, still i’m brown like obama
inadequate lower+class breed, they portrayed us
two sides of a coin like two halves of a day
my eyes seein’ polynesian doctors, lawyers, builders, mathematicians
brown politicians politickin’ for our brown rights
this is what it sounds like when a brown uce spits the truth
raise your fists, raise the roof
fear not the bigotry encountered on endeavours
believe a prejudiced mind could change in due time
most importantly, recognize a brown woman’s worth
brown is my blessing, brown is my curse
[chorus: poetik, lamuel and together]
brown brother, never let the past fade out (oh, oh)
remember where we from, we the people from the sun (oh, yeah)
brown brother, more than just your skin tone (oh, yeah)
more than just a child on the [?], you got heart, got soul
brown brother, even whey they knock you down (oh, oh)
never let ’em keep you down, stand tall, rise for our people (oh, yeah)
brown brother, we ain’t the slaves, we the masters (oh, yeah)
the future’s right now, proud polynesian panthers, stand up

[verse 3: uptown squite]
brown like the bag that we sip out
early on a sat+rday, tippin’ the brown liquor, the brown bottle
brown uce, brown over brown
brown dirt trample as we travel, brown grounds
brown+skin beauty, get her chastised, spit on by the white+skin
[?] brown pasifika, polynesian sun+dip
photos in the black+and+white, can’t hide the brown face
profile and violate, the brown people irate
brown like the switch we crack
throw the brown herbs and the homie toss me a sack
let it crumble; this brown pain, gots to blow it away
it’s brown [?] so don’t go hand me a k
’bout to hear them now, another brown wasted away
[?] talk about, brown fingers grippin’ the cage
brown like the walk across the oceans
as the brown folks navigated brown lands, take it from our brown hands
i’m a brown man, warrior like [?]
head to the sky like a big [?]
that uptown brown baby born on march 1st
brown is my blessing, brown is my curse
[chorus: poetik, lamuel and together]
brown brother, never let the past fade out (oh, oh)
remember where we from, we the people from the sun (oh, yeah)
brown brother, more than just your skin tone (oh, yeah)
more than just a child on the [?], you got heart, got soul
brown brother, even whey they knock you down (oh, oh)
never let ’em keep you down, stand tall, rise for our people (oh, yeah)
brown brother, we ain’t the slaves, we the masters (oh, yeah)
the future’s right now, proud polynesian panthers, stand up

never let the past fade out (oh, oh)
remember where we from, we the people from the sun (oh, yeah)
brown brother, more than just your skin tone (oh, yeah)
more than just a child on the [?], you got heart, got soul
brown brother, even whey they knock you down (oh, oh)
never let ’em keep you down, stand tall, rise for our people (oh, yeah)
brown brother, we ain’t the slaves, we the masters (oh, yeah)
the future’s right now, proud polynesian panthers, stand up

[outro: narrator & lamuel]
a majority of [?] from south africa and england that picked on the tongalei and the samoan. [?] aotearoa, new zealand. so they form a, a, a special squad to go out early in the mornings to [?] and raid. break down pacific island people’s [?]
(polynesian panthers)
