poetik suspekt - brown sugar blues lyrics

[intro]
i wonder what my mama say
if she were alive today
[?] on that sugar cane
the sugar took her life away
now in these streets i’m hustling
gotta put food on my daughter plate
c’mon

[verse 1]
can i take you back some, ’bout 1850
before the white men named apia city
would’ve pitied that we don’t know, they won’t teack you
uneducated dumb n+gga, they keep you
i see you angry as such
parole with the flag as they follow the dutch
how many slaveships followed us up?
fifty+five thousand recorded, they sold us
kinda like merchandise, you don’t believe it
the lie be my word precise
before the ‘burb and the ice, all the ‘burb, ‘burbin was worth more than the slave life
five dollars a head is what they said
when they sold two hundred and fifty three [?] islanders
they murdered pacific islanders
mass raves of a queen’s land, that’s why we say queen, b+tch
and i’ma say this real sh+t
ask poly kids today, how many poly slaves cut brown sugar cane up in queensland?
they don’t know this but they notice how many poly brown brothers play up in queensland
from the kingfield to the leefield
what did ice cube say? run, n+gga, run
where the os at the sea [?], when the police come we run, n+gga, run
[?], hebrew word for oppressor
massive, i might let these hollow tips get ya

[verse 2]
yeah, but to free your mind, ill, lemme talk about easter island
they were hunted down, most beaten and shackled up
[?] in the [?] but the rest shot down
south american exported, thus rapa nui left desolate
uh, ’bout ten of ’em came back
smallpox affected, they wiped out the rest of ’em
all we ask for the statues from, is that you broke, are you that dumb?
and now we k!ll our own cousins
say blood, say ’cause we use that gun
one of ’em topple like, “where you from?”
an uso got shot down, now he done
can’t even speak your mother’s tongue
it’s all the effects of oppression
the [?] and black alligator bay
what you think? bald heads gon’ educate?
speak on moldy heads, they decapitate
preach on my members, they left [?]
tell me what you know about black [?] day
tell me what you know about god’s hurricane
black panther, afro+american
poly panther, new zealand, it’s all in the givin’ now
but they separate us, try fade us
use poverty to contain us
turn the cameras on and tryna blame us
for when the camera’s off, full racist sh+t
[?] test my patience
bigotry on a daily basis
in a warehouse like [?], [?]
f+ck that, i’ma at a turn at these b+st+rds

[chorus]
i wonder what my mama say
if she were alive today
[?] on that sugar cane
the sugar took her life away
now in these streets i’m hustling
gotta put food on my daughter plate
middle finger to the government
lord, my people struggling
i wonder what my mama say
if she were alive today
[?] on that sugar cane
the sugar took her life away
now in these streets i’m hustling
gotta put food on my daughter plate
middle finger to the government
lord, my people struggling
