[Verse 1]
[G]Hea[D]dliners, X -Clan,
who lead a mission they
call Blackwatch,
[G]carried Afro [D]-centricity
and rap pedagogy
to their limits
that's well into boredom
and beyond.
Dressed like Afro -Brooklyn
wise men
with huge hammered [G]gold ornaments
and wooden [D]staves,
the group ranted at the audience
[G]without break or [D]hook.
These were [G]good words
in inaccessible form.
[D]If X -Clan had a lesson to teach,
[G]or more [D]likely 360 degrees
[G]worth of lessons,
this was [D]no way to get anyone to listen.
[G]I get the feeling
[D]I'm not the target audience
for this product
as they themselves say
there's more [G]to the X -Clan
[D]than red Black and green.
I'm [G]still rolling with [D]the red white and blue
[G]Yo, I [D]have a question.
I want to ask
how [G]come all the [D]girls in your videos
are light -skinned with long [G]hair
[D]What's up?
You got a problem with real black [G]women
an[D]d speaking about women
all [G]the women in the black
[D]watch movement leaders
Are there a [G]bunch of groupies
[D]dominated by your macho attitud[G]es?
[D]Psst, couldn't [G]be me.[D]
Yo, them niggas ain't [G]real.
They're supposed [D]to be righteous.
I [G]was backstage [D]at the concert,
and all they was trying to do
[G]was hit some skin[D]s.
Man, they was surrounded by [G]girlies.
[D]Yo, yo, yo, babe, wha[G]t you mean?
[D]X -Clan.
They're anti [G]-Semitic, I [D]tell you.
For God's sake.
The professor [G]guy?
He's that son
of that [D]self -proclaimed
anti -white [G]activist
Sonny [D]Carson.
I seen him.
I [G]seen him in Crown [D]Heights.
They're troublemakers.
[G]You're [D]wearing that X,
[G]but are you willing [D]to [G]get behind
[D]the man today,
[G]who is the lead[D]er of the real X [G]-Clan?[D]
[G]The leader [D]of the real X -Clan
[G]is the Honor[D]able Minister [G]Louis [D]Parakar.
Sis[G]sy![D][F][G]
[D]Peace!
I am Professor X, the [G]Overseer.
[D]Blessings and all greetings
[G]in every [D]language of blackness.
[G]If [D]you have truly taken a ride
aboard the [G]pink caddy,
[D]you beyond a doubt have rea[G]lized
that you are one [D]of the original
[F]sons or daughter[D]s of God.
This must [G]not be taken lightly
[D]because of this [G]realization [D]is one of the
keys to our [G]people's liber[D]ation,
ultimately molding and Armageddon.
In observation an[G]d intolera[D]nce
of the shackled state that
blackness is in,
a step has been cre[G]ated.
[D]The Black Watch movement.
Black Watch is a spearhead movement
adding [G]on to the [D]weapon called
black nationalism.
You must realize that this weapon
of the old [G]and new generation
[D]can accept nothing but focused
energies
concentrated toward[G]s our
freedom [D]as a people
or our [G]death [D]in the struggle.
This [G]oath, freedom [D]or death,
keeps us consistent in our war against
the sys[G]tematic op[D]pressions.
Through the years, as stern activists
who have observed [G]our mis[D]takes
and triumphed as a people,
[G]we rea[D]lize we can no longer separate
[G]in our [D]be liefs, egos, or move[G]ments.
[D]Black nationalism is not [F]a religion.
I re[D]peat, not a religion.
It serves as a [G]never -bending umbrel[D]la for
all Blackness in the storm of ignorance.
thievery, senseless [G]death,
and [D]all else that would seek to trap us
in the mud of the pig's parlor.
[G]Rig[D]ht now, we need heart
and uni[G]fication.[D]
Our goals as Blackwatch [G]are
to black [D]-boot -stomp
the agony of [F]defeat with[D]in ourselves,
organization of [G]ourselves,[D]
and freedom for [G]ourselves,
[D]all in one non -robotic,
[G]pimp -st[D]rut groove.
So you must be totally sure
when stepping into the temple
of Blackwatch,
because when life into doors,
death no return.
[G]One of [D]the things we must
prepare ourselves for
is life commitment and [G]dedication
[D]to ensure trust within our people
so we can truly establish new [D]order.
This is an invitation to the
[G]other side [D]of your life.
