letra de a white man's heaven is a black man's hell remake - louis farrakhan
verse 1
why are we called negroes?
why are we spiritually deaf, dumb, and blind?
why is everybody making progress
yet we seem to be lagging so far behind?
why are we mistreated?
why are we in this condition?
stripped of our name, our language, our culture, our god, and our religion
(ooh, ooh, ooh, tell me why)
here in america, all of our religious training
has been gotten by the preacher
and he has told us of a heaven way up in the sky
that we can’t enjoy now, but rather after we die
but all of the years that we’re living
for us, there’s nothing but h-ll (h-ll)
pain, torture, and misgiving
yet the bible speaks of a heaven
filled with material luxuries
which the white man and the preacher
has right here, so we see
so my friend, take it for what it’s worth
heaven and h-ll are just two conditions, and they’re both right here on this earth (tell me why)
(woo! heed the call, ‘all, it’s easy to tell, white man heaven is a black man’s h-ll)
so let’s check back into history, which rewards all research
and tell just plainly
that before the white man gained entry to the east
he was living in the caves of europe, on the level of beast
eating juniper roots and eating fish raw
til god sent moses to civilize him and teach him the law
then following many of his explorers
he gained entry into asia and africa
from china, he took silk and gunpowder
from india, he took jute, manganese, and rubber
he raped africa of her diamonds and her gold
from the mideast, he took barrels of oil untold
deceiving, raping, robbing, and murdering everything in his path
the whole black world has tasted of the white man’s wrath
(woo! heed the call, yall it’s easy to tell, white man heaven is a black man’s h-ll)
so my friend, it’s not hard to tell
a white man’s heaven is a black man’s h-ll
verse 2
before we came to america
we were living in the east by the nile river
living in luxury
enjoying freedom, justice, and equality
we wore silken robes, and slippers of gold
we were the wealthiest and the wisest people, untold
now we are the poorest of the poor
n0body wants us at their door
so my friend, it’s easy to tell
white man’s heaven is black man h-ll
hook
you oughta heed the call yall, it’s easy to tell
white man heaven is a black man h-ll
verse 2
when the white man came to america
he told the indian, “i am your white brother”
he said, “red man, i’ll treat you the best”
yet and still he pushed the indian further west
with his white woman and firewater (ooh, ooh)
tricks and lies, he stole america (ooh, ooh)
the original owner of this nation
is cooped up on a reservation
so my friend, it’s easy to tell (easy to tell)
that a white man’s heaven is black man h-ll
hook
you oughta heed the call yall, it’s easy to tell
white man heaven is a black man h-ll
verse 3
he needed someone to work the land
his back was too weak, he needed you, black man
so he commissioned sir john hawkins
to commit the worst, most grievous sin
to take a man who’s born to be free
and bring him down to slavery
to sell a man as merchandise
on his body, put a price
so my friend, it’s easy to tell
that a white man heaven is a black man h-ll
hook
ah, oh, heed the call, yall, it’s easy to tell
white man heaven is black man h-ll
(break)
verse 4
john hawkins showed up in our country
telling us of a land filled with luxury
he said “black man, follow me to america”
there you’d find gold for your labor
our for parents were tricked onto his boat (ooh)
since that time we’ve been wrestling with the goat (ooh)
we landed here, to jamestown, virginia
400 years to suffer
so my friend it’s easy to tell
white man heaven is a black man h-ll
hook
you oughta heed the call yall, it’s easy to tell
white man heaven is a black man h-ll
(break)
verse 5
when the slavemaster wanted to have some sport
he would yeep on our pants cruelties of the worst sort
buy them at stake, hang them on trees
his ears were deaf to our parent’s please
though you were pregnant black women, you pull the plow (ooh, ooh)
like a horse like a mule, sweat from your growl (ooh, ooh)
he’d feel your wounds with his wicked seed
his half white children, you were meant to breed
ah, my friend it’s easy to tell
white man heaven is a black man h-ll
hook
ooh you’ve got to, heed the call yall, it’s easy to tell (easy to tell)
white man heaven is a black man h-ll
verse 6
so called negro, open up your eyes
black land everywhere is on the rise
he has kicked the white man out of asia
and he’s going fast out of africa
with every ounce of strength and breath
his prize give us liberty or give us death
the whole plan word was the eyes on you
to see what the so called negro is going to do
so my friend it’s easy to tell
our unity will give the white man h-ll
hook
ooh you’ve got to, heed the call yall, it’s easy to tell
white man heaven is a black man h-ll
break
in the fifteenth chapter genesis it reads
“and god said to abram know of a surety that thy seed will be a stranger in a land that is not there. and they shall serve them and they shall afflict them 400 years. but after that time, i will come and i will come and judge that nation that they shall serve.”
verse 7
our god and saviour, allah has come (ah, ah)
he has declared the white man’s day is done (ah, ah)
