Luyện nghe bài hát Beast Within

We must learn to together as brothers or perish together as fools...MLK

Intro
For us to get united, spirit—say it again
For us to save our dignity, we try to forgive
content, that's it—say it again
This is that cause to die for so we can live

This little ditty starts about K
I was at the state fair, I the day
I was suckin' on Slurpee I had in my
Then smack, it splattered all the place

I could feel the sting on my and cheeks
To find out what happened I up to see
kids older, different color than me
They fly swatters still ready to swing

I could that those kids just wanted to fight
But I want that, I just wondered why...But
Before I wonder, I was quickly told why
the you knows did it to me just because I was light

Now I don't know how that was all about
I just know what had left me in a state
Thank God I'd heard that man M-L-K
I him back then, I feel him more to-day

As we up, we were pretty much friends
Yet I was taught by my elders that was a difference
The difference were talking about was based on skin
the presence of the devil when they were talk-in'

No problems I knew 'til high came
'Til sunny day brought in a storm of acid-rain
Guys started pushin' me, about skin
up my hair, pushin', laughin'

Callin' me a kind of boy, guys I thought were
All without cause, my faith was shaken
But lookin' back, I can see happened
An elder of my friends must started talkin'

Must have opened their eyes to the man's sin
Now there's of that, I've lived it firsthand
It comes from our elders and the
When identity is skin, it serves to spread the within

Not long I was talkin' with a gal
One who I liked, who saw me as a pal
She that she was goin' with the guy who pushed me down
Then I used that one word and it got
What never got around was it was said in
To a bigoted attack I had done nothin' wrong
I forgave and said I'm sorry to everybody and Mom
But it matter, hate kept marching on

that tit for tat, I tried to keep faith
Faced off with that for spreadin' the hate
That day we were sittin', T-V
That Stepdad much for diversity

That Stepdad said that one and I asked him to stop
But he on sayin' it 'til I made him stop
I grabbed him by his just below his chin
Jerked him from the "Don't ya (pop-pop) say it again!"

Mom came in cryin', I let go of him
Another explosion based on skin
Such words just spread division, no matter who uses
walls of mass destruction, no one's innocent

A alcoholic, my soul wasting away
Hip Hop thumpin' loud in my all day
It's what me alive, but I was haunted by the hate
It reminded me of and the things he used to say

Stepdad comes from fear and hate, Rap's from real
But the gun talk and the racial pride hits me about the
And the talk of revolution, like that'll set things
Don't blink before you it, there'll be no U-S-A

Words of that Stepdad echoed in my
"You better get wise boy, they really you dead"
My thought, "my heroes really want me dead?"
"You learn to shoot a gun for your own self-defense?"
Those thoughts resounded in me
I searched for soul, some shared humanity
Yet I turned, just hate harassing
When the says we're one blood, one humanity

I get free, it's plain as day to see
How the media's always stirring up controversy
Just to us up by gender, creed and ethnicity
Those polls are phony, they just tell us what to think

Yeah, those in put forth a nice face
But they trap us in our skin when they us of our race
It's done to distract, while are put in place
The finishing touches on new state

If I offended any good-willed people, I apologize right now. That was not my intent. But we are being played each other. We need to forget about race and follow the money. Now that'll get us somewhere...

For us to save our dignity, we must try to
Character content, it—say it again
