Lyrics for Song: Down
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Tura Satana
They say that equality
Is for everyone
Black and white, rich and poor
Male... and female
Bullshit
And you can fuck that American dream
Livin' in America
I know what it means
To be on welfare have no health care
Walk down the street and be scared
And unprepared for a system
That's built on hate
And gives permission to rape
Discriminates against color
While it wrecks
And disrespects my sex
I ain't down
Down for the system
That's why i resist them
Lied to and betrayed
(listen)
Muthafuck
The establishment and all that it stands for
Censor and dismiss
The media and demands for
Sexual commodities equality void
With anorexic images of bodies destroyed
From diets to pills
To throwing up till it kills
Continual false definition of what sells
Ten pounds thinner, miss America winner
But i ain't down
You can keep your muthafuckin' crown
Not down for the system
That's why I resist them
Lied to and betrayed
You've got to raise the critical questions
'Bout their intentions
That you were taught to believe
Talkin' it from the system
That's set up to deceive
That's set up to deceive
Based on lies that were taught to you
In school
History's been polluted
They're treatin' you like a fool
If you think that they're
Playin' it straight today
It's up to you to find out
And make it your own way
Don't buy the lies
They try to disguise
You say you want to be down?
You gotta tear it down
So you say that you're
Politically minded
But you stay blinded
Lookin' for the truth
Eyes closed, you can't find it
They keep believin' it
But the way I'm seein' it
Here's how I'm feelin it
At 10...you suck
At 9...you're fucked
At 8... you're a sucker
At 7... a muthafucker
At 6...you're jacked
At 5 ...straight wack
At 4 ...your a clown
All the way to 1
And we're done
Are ya down
