Şarkı sözleri

Land of the free, but the skin I'm in identifies me
So the people around me energize me
Callin' all aboard this train ride
Talk about raw hardcore, leavin' frauds on the outside
But the bad thing is anyone can ride the train
And the reason for that is 'cause we look the same
Lookin' all around at my so called friend
Light skin to the brown, the black, here we go again
Homie over there knows Keithan, but he be thiefin'
I don't trust him, rather bust 'em up
Out goes his hand and I cough
He once stole from me, yeah, I wanna cut it off
The black thing is a ride I call the nighttrain
It rides the good, the bad, we call the monkey trained
Trained to attack the black and it's true
'Cause some of them lookin' just like you
Ya'll look out for the nighttrain
Ya'll look out for the nighttrain
Stayin' on the scene, sittin' on the train
See all the faces look about the same
There go the sell out who's takin' a ride like Cargo
'Cause he deal the keys from Key Largo
Runnin' Nat narcotic, by George he got it
Takin', makin' the G's erotic
And the fiends they scheme, so he can put 'em down
But his method is wreck 'em, I put 'em in the ground
Got the nerve as hell to yell brother, man
He ain't black man, better yet he's Pac Man
Known to murder his own, traitor on the phone
Ridin' the train, self-hater trained to sell pain
The master's toy, his little boy
Hard to avoid he look with it, but he null and void
'Cause he ridin' the train you think he down for the cause
'Cause his face lookin' just like yours
Ya'll look out for the nighttrain
Ya'll look out for the nighttrain
More of the same, insane, who sayin'?
I'm flowin' like nighttrain, runnin' the pain of the black reign
You look, you laugh, you doubt and go out
And I'm gone, but the bass goes on
To talk the talk, walk the walk, the king of New York
Crack a lack, attack the black, to crack the back
Once again I test a friend with sincerity
Or consider him an enemy
Who am I to tell a lie? Rather push the Bush
Hope the cracker gets crushed, I'm rollin' with Rush
Leader of the bum rush
Russian, I ain't, spreadin' like paint
Lookin' at the pot I got and it's kickin'
But it ain't chicken, but it's livin' for a city
So sick and tired of a scene buckwild
Piled in a file, senile or child
They said it never been no worser than this
I'm on the nighttrain, they hope you don't miss it
Give you what they got to give you, just go
You musn't just put your trust in every brother, yo
Some don't give a damn, 'cause they the other man
Worse than a bomb, posin' as Uncle Tom
Disgracin' the race and blowin' up the whole crew
With some of them lookin' just like you
