Xenophobe
Slowly I've
Been becoming something other than a running man
And
I get stronger by the day
My minimum wage
Turns into a maximum rage!
Raised racing on a hamster wheel
Caught up in a cage
Where I'm going it's amazing
The way they
Treating us with treats
Keeping us complacent
I ain't a pet, but a pest
Without extermination
My verb to the nations
A real reverberation
Call it "desecration of the secular"
Bring back the sacred!
Take down the fake gods
And tear off the bracelets
Made of gold
Cups made of gold
I mean, cuffs made of gold
Cuz God made us bold
That's the boulder you throw
(Oh!)
Slay Goliath with the flow
Don'tchu know?
You don't know
Xenophobe
You ain't ever seen something like this
You ain't ever seen something like this
You ain't ever heard something like this
You ain't ever heard something like this
You ain't ever felt something like this
You ain't ever felt something like this
Xenophobe, don't fear THE OTHER
Call it what it is
That's the fear of YOUR BROTHER
Take cover, I mean
Cover your face
Color erased
Now you're feeling defaced
You claim there's no race
But there's always a trace
Laid hidden in our voice
This ain't a choice we made
It's just the way God made
The woman and man
Eve and A-dam
We just don't give a... (huh!)
'Bout the plan
To bring back the Kingdom of Heaven
Go to Church every Sunday
By Monday we're kicking
God out the Kingdom to make it our own
We ain't bothered when our brother is
Lost and alone
But who's at the throne of the culture?
Vultures like Dolce and Gabbana
Gucci and Prada
The new kings and queens is us
It's just we need to adjust
Embrace the new face
The new race
The few hate the fate of replacing
The known and the comfortable
For something so new, so true
It's uncomfortable
That's the total divine Other
When you can say that stranger's your brother
Treat women with respect like your mother
Do not be afraid of the unknown
Xenophobe
