Prince Lyrics

"Family Name" lyrics



Welcome. U have just accessed the Akashic Records Genetic Information Division.
This program is required 4 those wishing 2 obtain a marriage blessing from The
Kingdom. When u wish 2 begin this program, place ur right hand on the scanner
and tightly clench up ur buttcheeks as u might feel a slight electrical shock.
Please select the race history u desire. U have selected African-American. This
is your history:

First of all, the term "black and white" is a fallacy. It simply is another way
of saying "this or that". Let's examine the term "this or that" in its ultimate
form which is: "this" means the truth or "that which is resistant 2 it. When a
minority realizes its similarities on a higher level- not just "black"- but
PEOPLE OF COLOR, and higher still "INDIGENOUS", and even higher still, "FROM THE
TRIBE OF.", and yet higher- the "RAINBOW CHILDREN". When this understanding
comes, the so-called minority becomes a majority in the wink of an eye. This
action will cause a Reaction or Resistance. The source of this Resistance must b
banished as it is in direct conflict with the initial action. It cannot be
assimilated, 4 its very nature is resistance. In other words, ONE CANNOT SERVE 2
MASTERS. U r either "this" or "that" which is not "this".

End of part one. 2 continue, select the program Family Name and type in the
current government name u wish history on.

(London, England sometime in the early 1600s)

"We have the God-given right 2 run out of our colonies anyone who does not bow
down 2 our law. Hear, hear?"

"Come on, come on keep it moving here. What's your name boy?"
"Abu Cah"
"Well it ain't now; it's Tom Lynch."



Mirror, mirror what u see?
Have I still got those dark clouds over me?
Or am I really feeling what I feel? The last days of the Devil's Deal
Mirror, what u see?

Devil, devil what u know?
U been here since 1914, but now u got 2 go
U been hidin' behind corporate eyes
U wanna war, but u can't fight
Devil, u got 2 go

U might say, "what u mad about?"
But u still got ur Family Name
Pleased 2 meet u, Mr. Rosenbloom
I'll b John Blackwell just the same
What's ur Family Name?

Teacher, teacher what u say?
Did we really come over in a boat?
Did it really go down that way?
Or did I arrive b4 and ruin Thanksgiving Day?
Teacher, what u say?

Preacher, preacher is it true?
That Jesus wants me 2 give my money 2 the likes of u?
Ride around in ur Lexus Coupe/Drive us 2 the cleaners in a pinstripe suit
Preacher, that ain't truth!

U might say, "what u mad about?"
But u still got ur Family Name
Pleased 2 meet u, Mr. Pearlman
U can call me Clay. Can I play?

People, people what's ur name?
Maybe we should start all over
Let everybody get in the game
Put up a one-gloved fist
Make a sound, Violet Brown

U might say "what u mad about?"
But u still got ur Family name
Pleased 2 meet u Mr. Goldstruck.

We found this tape in the Akashic records. This is Thomas Jefferson:

"My fellow Americans, if there is a just God, we're gonna pay 4 this!"

"Black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics will b
able 2 join hands in the words of the old Negro spiritual: "free at last, free
