Just Don't Learn
Brand Nubian

We dealin with death, in abundance

Dirty guns and, the pungent smell, of those who fell

Bodies, like commodoties, ready to sell

Take you around the world for a hundred dollars

Meanwhile, a little baby hollers

Hopin that she doesn't follow in her mother's footsteps

of drugs and sex, every day, more thugs to arrest

And today could be the day you catch a slug in your chest

Funny thing about life - nobody, gets out alive

The trick is to see, how long, you can survive

We deprived of our basic needs

Sufferin at the hands of a racist greed

In the black wo-man's where I place my seed

When they grow, will they know, that I tried to make it better for them?

Will I be dead or inside of a federal pen?

Niggaz just don't learn, niggaz just won't learn


As we walk through the valley of dry bones

Death from, New York to Cali, the shit hits homes

Niggaz with 40 calibers, that'll split ya bone

Other niggaz with silencers, with gats that's chrome

It seems the violence only escalates, I'm concerned

When the slug penetrate your flesh, see it burn

Livin with the constant threat, that it could be yo' turn

Niggaz just don't learn, niggaz just won't learn


On 8th Ave, keep bouncin in the Mave'

He don't even know the type of problems he gon' have

He facin obstacles, greed, it's the large city need

Remember when he ain't smoke weed

Jail hold's raw, spittin seed

In the Polo Grounds, in 89 we dodged steed


All the slaves ain't freed

Make him the captain, muh'fucker we'll lead

Shoot him in the chest muh'fucker will bleed

Cause way he's goin he's gon' need God-speed

I seen a man die, gettin shot in the eye

And then leave this earth with a sigh

I wish I had a dollar for every funeral parlor

that I been to, and I ain't tryin to end to

I've been a friend to a lot of dead niggaz

With multiple gunshots, niggaz used to run spots


Now little shorties don't have a chance

Cause hard times be comin down like a avalanche

We play the streets until we carried on a ambulance

Day by day we be the victims of the circumstance

See the poison has us movin at a steady flow

It filters through your radio and your video

You ever once stop to think and wonder why it's so?

We don't know cause we blinded by the fog of 'dro, so we let it go

We dedicate our whole careers to save our dyin nation

Cause what we facin is the process of elimination

So busy chasin that our history begins erasin

A savage nation that is headin for anihilation

Time out - put the killin to a drought

And shorty stop runnin around puttin all them dicks in yo' mouth

I be concerned cause we burn baby burn

and we just don't, learn
