Now i shall tell a story that's filled with words
That start with the letter n

Step into the world of a nigger, figure
To stay a little while so pack your bag up bigger
First of all just let me introduce you seduce you
Into a frame of mind that's easy to get used to
Nigger hasn't always meant a man with melanin
It used to be a piece of wood that sat on the cotton gin
Masta put it there and it wouldn't move, smooth
So what does it mean, to be a nigger with an attitude?
You tell me that a nigger's crazy or lazy
Not about the skin so, don't let it faze me
Well you amaze me, with that ignorant bizull-shizzit
Get a grip on the new fit
Cause that's a lame frame of brain for the nineties
I know the game so it don't sting, my mind sees
So what the fuck you wanna race for the trigger
I ain't the one, i ain't the nigga

Nigger is a word we use today, you say
It don't mean the same if you spell it with an a
But that's an argument that makes me itch, i twitch
If i took the t out will i still mean bitch?
My name is e-roc, and i ain't the nigger main
Save your sellout strut shit for soul train
Cause i've been known, to knock a motherfucker out
Without a doubt, the coup gives me much clout
But there's a factor when i know that my skin is brown
And never ever will i put another brother down (gawwwd damn)
So i make the mental rule to massacre the word
Cause when i hear it, it gets, me straight stirred
It's mental trash so i'm pickin up the litter
I ain't the one and i ain't, the nigger
My people use this word each and every day
You see a nigger, slap a nigger, that's what i say

I can do rhythms like.."

My attitude is this (what?) don't call yourself a niggerole (why?)
Unless you're just an oakie-doke it'll make you sicker though
Cause it's all about a mind-time mind-frame
The system is a chess game with, pawns all the same (haa haa)
Until we change our mind to ?
Identify yourself, it's a part of being concious (yeah)
If i call myself a gangster then i'll rob you with a gat (yeah)
If i call myself a brother then you know i got your back (yeah)
If i call myself oppressed then i'm clear on where i'm at
But if i call myself a nigger what the fuck is that? (yeah, you know)
Don't be the coolie or the moolie or a boob with the jigger
Don't be the one... don't be the nigga
