uncle usi taught me

Singer:brother ali

mm-hmm

uncle usi taught me

can't teach what you don't know

can't lead where you don't go

can't reap what you don't sow

can't fool the people no more

you know me i'm a globe traveler

soul ambassador

reporting live from the world wide massacre

no mask for the truth that animates me

see it and i speak it wherever it takes me

i'm in the republic of iran at a conference

talkin' 'bout the cops and their nonsense

and how they like to hunt black folk with no conscience

and how they want to preach human rights

its preposterous

request from the audience spit that uncle sam goddamn

drawing out the round of applauses

i was rocking a capella before this

because i know that rapping in iran is lawless

ahh sh-- you know me though anything for the people

the clapping kind of tapped in to my fat rapper ego

i fell into the trap plugged in my mac and let the beat go

didn't think that nobody would hear though

here we go

can't teach what you don't know

can't lead where you don't go

can't reap what you don't sow

can't fool the people no more

oh

here he go

can't teach what you don't know

can't lead where you don't go

can't reap what you don't sow

can't fool the people no more

this is how it go

friday we greet each other at the mosque

but here there's only one and the government preacher talks

which struck me as odd but nothing could prepare me for

a big ass mob chanting death to america"
