    The 
    knowledge 
    you're about 
    to hear 
    can 
    be 

    devastating 
    to 
    your 
    ear. 


    You 
    have 
    to 
    understand 
    that 
    what's 
    necessary 
    is 
    an 
    ideology 
    that 
    goes 
    beyond 
    the 
    whole 
    thing 
    of, 

    you 
    know, 
    just physical 
    state 
    of lack. 

    Because 
    what 
    we are talking 
    about 
    is surviving, 

    that's 
    the whole 
    thing, 
    we 
    have 
    to survive 

    in 
    this 
    country. 

    Thinking 
    while sitting, 
    my brain 
    starts 
    to 
    spin, 
    get 
    it, 

    I'm not 
    winning, 
    so go 
    back 

    to the beginning. 

    I'm looking 
    to the 
    mirror, 
    I'm 
    real, 

    don't want to 
    fake 
    him. 

    If 
    you can't 
    understand 
    it, 
    then 

    As 
    -Salaam -Alaikum. 

    Rahman 
    is my 
    child, 
    steady 

    B is 
    my name. 

    It's not the 
    same, 

    as the 
    next 
    man 
    will claim. 

    To 
    be 
    changing 
    for others, 

    my 
    heart 
    ain't winning. 

    If it's 
    meant 
    to be, 
    it is, 

    if it 
    ain't, I 
    won't 
    get 
    it. 

    But 
    nevertheless, 

    I persist 
    and 
    keep 
    using 
    being 
    toyed 

    Never 
    thought 
    it'd 
    feel so 
    confusing 

    But 
    I 
    know 
    who I 
    am, 

    the most 
    powerful 
    person 

    A 
    black 
    man, 

    while the 
    others 
    go searching 

    And 
    selling 
    their 
    souls without 
    a doubt 

    And 
    I would 
    never 
    be 
    labeled as 

    a hip 
    -hop somehow 

    The 

    Asiatic 
    ones 
    stand tall, 
    brave, and 
    bold 

    And 
    learn 
    from 
    the 
    greatest 

    story 
    ever 
    told 

    Those 
    who 
    understand 

    what 
    I'm speaking 

    I'm 
    not defiant, 

    by the 
    time 
    I'm almost 
    named 

    So I'm 
    making a 
    sweet 
    vagina 

    So 
    stand 
    by, 
    you 
    know the 
    plan 

    And 
    listen 
    to 
    renowned 

    young 
    black 
    man 

    There 
    is no 
    contradiction, 

    I'm 
    black and 
    I'm 
    proud. 

    There 
    is 
    no 
    contradiction, 

    I'm 
    black and 
    I'm proud. 

    Knowledge 
    is a 
    weapon 
    and it's 
    kept in 
    a shell, 

    it's 
    called a 
    brain. 

    Four
    teen billion 
    brain 
    cells, 

    knowledge 
    keeps dropping. 

    Heavy 
    as a 
    pounder, 

    weighs 
    seven 
    and one 
    -half 
    ounces. 

    Think
    in' 
    of things 
    we 
    do, 

    creatin' 
    the villain 

    You 
    can 
    never 
    top 
    us, so you 

    claimin' 
    it's 
    steal
    in' 

    Talk 
    about 
    no 
    music, 

    somethin' 
    steady 
    beatin' 

    But 
    nothin' 
    would exist 
    if 

    a law 
    didn't 
    cre
    ate 
    it 

    And 
    that's 
    a blessing, 

    it's 
    somethin' 
    I'm 
    blessed with 

    Don't 
    worry 
    about me, 

    cause 
    what 
    I got you 
    won't 
    get 

    A 
    preacher 
    told 
    me 
    I had to 

    come out 
    to my 
    level 

    Cause I'm 
    rhymin' 

    Now hip 
    -hop 
    is 
    blindin' 

    That 
    goes 
    to 
    say it's 

    metology's 
    to a 
    limit 

    You don't 
    like 
    what I do? 

    Fuck 
    you! 

    And I'm 
    in 
    it 

    Let's 
    talk 
    about hip 
    -hop 

    Created 
    by the 
    black 
    youth 

    Frontin' 
    with your 
    music 

    And 
    don't 
    even know 
    the 
    truth 

    Instead 
    of 
    criticizing, 
    give 
    us a 
    hand, 

    and 
    listen 
    to 
    the 
    ana
    logy 
    of a 
    black 
    man. 

    We 
    have 
    to survive. 

    We 
    exist 
    as 
    a nation. 

    We 
    have 
    to 
    survive. 

    We 
    exist 
    as 
    a nation. 

    So 
    listen 
    up 
    when I 
    speak and 
    pay 

    attention 
    and 
    understand. 

    And 
    I'm 
    talking 
    to the 
    original 
    man 

    Open 
    your eyes 
    and see 

    what 
    we're facing 

    You 
    gotta stand 
    strong, 

    cause we 
    need 
    a nation 

    Cause 
    black 
    is the 
    color 

    that made 
    all 
    the 
    others 

    To 
    learn 
    to respect 
    your 

    sisters 
    and brothers 

    These 
    teachers, 

    schools 
    would 
    never 
    teach 

    And 
    you'll 
    never 
    hear 
    it when 

    the 
    preachers 
    preach 

    I'm 
    playing 
    hard
    ball 

    with your 
    brain 

    Cause life 
    is 
    no game, 
    you don't 
    listen 

    When 
    niggas 
    stay 
    lame 
    and 
    look 
    back 

    From 
    where the 
    other 
    man 
    took 

    us, the 
    motherland 

    Africa, 
    we're 
    all 

    Muslims, 
    I'm pretty 
    sure 

    You're 
    not 
    that 
    naive, 

    cause 
    when 
    know
    ledge 
    is 
    taught 

    You're 
    forced 
    to believe 
    in the 
    facts 

    Open 
    up eyes 
    and 
    see 

    The 
    truth 
    shall 
    set 
    you free 

    You 
    can 
    bank 
    on 
    it, 
    our 
    time 
    has 
    come 

    Don't 
    run 
    when 
    the 
    deed 
    is done 

    Be 
    on alert, 
    se
    curity 
    is 
    our first 
    stand 

    An
    d 
    I'm 
    proud 
    to be a 
    black 
    fan 

    We 
    have 
    to understand 
    we 
    once 
    again 

    Talk 
    about 
    building 
    a nation 

    We 
    exist 
    as 
    a nation 

    The 
    reas
    on they 
    kill 
    black 
    people 

    or not 
    because 
    they 
    exist 
    as 
    wealthy 

    or 
    poor individuals. 

    They kill 
    them 
    because they're 
    black. 

    What 
    we 
    have to 
    understand 
    is 
    that 

    whether 
    we 
    recog
    nize 
    it or 
    not, 

    we consti

    We 
    must begin 
    to

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      "

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      "

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
