The Racist

The Racist - Boogie Down Productions

I've been taught to respect my elders and behave

Even if when they were young they sold slaves

Truth and understandin' is what I crave

In the land of the thief, home of the slave

Turn your page to a brief demonstration

'Cos now in '90 it's strictly information I'm givin'

Teachin' on a regular basis

Today's lecture is about the racist

We're not out to exaggerate or diss him

But show the symptoms and facts of racism

Understand the racist ain't equal

There's about five different types of racist people

First of the five different types of cases

Is the individual brought up racist

Here you have young men and women

Brought up in the Great White Way opinion

This opinion introduced by the parent

To the civilized becomes transparent

The civilized man could look through the faces

Make the analysis and see the racist

Number two case which y'all must hear

Is the individual racist out of fear

Here you have people that fear the African

And conjure up new ways of trappin' him

Number three is the unconscious racist

Not knowin' they're racist they invade your spaces
