LYRICS

People

Right about this time, stay loose

Cool, chilled licks by one called, Arrested Development

Say, come on, selectah, easy

See, I was resting at the park minding my own

Business as I kick up the treble tone

On my radio tape player box, right?

Just loud enough so folks could hear it’s hype, see?

Outta nowhere comes the woman I’m dating

Investigation, maybe she was demonstrating

But nevertheless I was pleased

My day was going great and my soul was at ease

Until a group of brothers started buggin’ out

Drinkin’ the 40 oz, going the nigga route

Disrespecting my black queen

Holding their crotches and being obscene

At first I ignored ’em ’cause, see, I know their type

They got drunk and got guns and they wanna fight

And they see a young couple having a time that’s good

And their egos wanna test a brother’s manhood

So they came to test Speech ’cause of my hairdo

And the loud bright colors that I wear

I was a target ’cause I’m a fashion misfit

And the outfit that I’m wearing, brothers dissin’ it

Well I stay calm and pray the niggas leave me be

But they’re squeezing parts of my date’s anatomy

Why, Lord, do brothers have to drill me?

‘Cause if I start to hit this man they’ll have to kill me! See?

I am everyday people

You see, I am everyday people

I told the niggas, “Please let us pass, friend”

I said “Please”, ’cause I don’t like killing Africans

But he wouldn’t stop and I ain’t Ice Cube

But I had to take the brother out for being rude

And like I said before, I was mad by then

It took three or four cops to pull me off of him

But that’s the story y’all of a black man

Acting like a nigga and get stomped by an African

You see

I am everyday people (everyday, yeah)

You see, I am everyday people

The moral of the story is

You better look very hard at who you step into

‘Cause you might get killed, or shot, and it’s not worth it

Africans need to be loving each other, and unite
