Persistence Of Time (1990) - 03.Keep It In The Family
Mankind, The public enemy's not the man who speaks his mind The public enemy's the man that goes and acts blind Searching for an answer that he'll never find An action from reaction and you can't make a retraction Once you've put your head out And then you're blue in the face, As you try to state your case
You can think with your dick but it can't shout Yo, I try to understand what the hell is going on I can't imagine how things ever got so far gone You separatists, say you want your own state I'll give them a state, a state of unconsciousness Retribution, no solution, constitution Discrimination, through the nation, raining hatred
I yell, when there's schism you must rebel I yell, so you'll hear I yell, I refuse to live, in, your hell I am what you fear I'm the truth, I don't keep it in the family Live your life, take someone else
Keep it in the family The real world's outside your door You can't keep it in the family You've got the longest way to fall
Keep it in the family Don't even try to tell me what you think is right When to you blacks are niggers and jews are kikes And you expect to be taken seriously But your actions, they're more than curiously Juvenile, you emulate what you hate And you don't even know why you feel this way 'Cause daddy hated this and mommy hated that And your own ability to reason's like a tire gone flat Yo, I try to understand what the hell is going on I can't imagine how things ever got so far gone You separatists, say you want your own state I'll give them a state, a state of unconsciousness Retribution, no solution, constitution Discrimination, through the nation, raining hatred
Keep it in the family The real world's outside your door You can't keep it in the family You've got the longest way to fall
When you keep it in the, when you keep it in the, When you keep it in the family
Acting out of pure cold hatred 'Cause of what another's race is Color of another's face is Different, and your own frustrations Taking on a violent nature Full of hate, so full of hate You'd kill a man is that your fate Your street becomes a police state Why the hell do you hate?! Hate, hate!!! I'm not gonna stand for it Someone's gonna pay for it I yell, we rebel We're the truth and we won't keep it in the family Live your life, take someone else
Keep it in the family I'm the thing that you most fear I don't keep it in the family I am the truth you won't hear
Keep it in the family You can't keep it in the family You've got the longest way to fall Keep it in the family
