Tony D - Stop Racism Lyrics

[Tony D]

Style within yes, there is no goal too grim

I teach the way yo, to match the color of my skin

So get it right y'all, my family had to organize

Comin over on a boat you see they had to realize

that they were one yes, in a nation of so many

Nationalities of people, knowledge we had plenty

as an equal, but still some considered us an outcast

Names like guinea and wop, is what was used in the past

to describe us nonetheless we kept our head up

Knowin in the future we shall all drink from the same cup

Unity is what I'm strivin for G, so let it be

Ebony and ivory in our community in harmony

Livin, perfectly together as a whole

From the bottom of South Africa to the North Pole

When I look at a human you can say I'm color blind

Cause I see them with my eyes but I judge them with my mind

Stop racism



[Tony D]

Hardheaded individuals say media blow up

is the cause of all racism, it's mentally throw up

So grow up and learn that the problem exists

Like Markie said, we gotta unball our fists

and put away the bats and throw away the knives

and get rid of the guns, that can hurt the lives

of our children, you see I pray for the future

It was once quoted, to let knowledge uproot ya

To build as one, and elevate and keep climbin

Stop racism, the cause that I'm rhymin

I can't wait for the twenty-first century

It's gotta happen now, cause that's the way it's meant to be

But you say how, can we do this you gotta put your mind to it

And know like Bo and just run right through it

My conclusion to the topic will be racism MUST end

Apartheid you're THROUGH with the message I send

Stop racism



[Tony D]

There's a handful of people I'm unable to reach

It's like tryin to find a certain grain of sand on the beach

A few friends of mine said it's a worthless cause

Like Run-D.M.C., it'll only "Pause"

and keep goin, some people will remain prejudiced

It's my job to make 'em see through the fog in their midst

Would it suffice this is the church, and this is the steeple

There's many religions, but there's only two people

That's man and woman, and woman and man

And if I can I'ma make 'em understand

That twenty years after Martin Luther King

It's still the same 'ol thing

We fed the world, and saved the farms

We even greeted the homeless with open arms

But when it comes to racism and apartheid

The people run away and try to hide

That's not the answer, the problem can be solved by you

I'm doin mine, now what you gonna do?

Stop racism



[Tony D]

Yo, the message I send is racism MUST end

Not only in South Africa but here in the U.S.

and everywhere else in the country in the world

on the planet for that matter y'knahmsayin?

Blacks and whites, reds, greens, yellows, oranges

Everybody must live, AS ONE, as man is supposed to be

And from Tony D, I'm outta here, harmony for the 90's
