Dance With The Devil

Big Daddy Kane

C'mon

Swing your partner, I'm about to start the 
Dance across the land, the Kane will scar the 
People of our community, cause we're soon to see 
The future of the world to be without unity 
So brothers and sisters, let's check our history 
To reveal what's been hidden a mystery 
Because we're headed for self-destruction 
And you know that the government, doesn't give a (fuck) when 
One black brother sells another one dope 
And he can't cope, so he dies without hope 
Many of us live on this level 
Mislead victims who dance with the devil

Guns are bein bought over the counter like candy 
Comin in handy for chumps to act manly 
Once before they were only for the law 
But no more for sure, lookin at a L.A. gun war 
Even in Brooklyn, lives are bein tooken 
The Bronx is dyin while the box is steady cookin 
Capsule after capsule, settin a trap to 
Destroy all our kind without a hassle 
I couldn't kill my brother, about a color 
Or cocaine, not even over a rope chain 
In this world I'm considered a rap rebel 
To correct those who dance with the devil

There's no survival 
Bodies come in D.O.A, Dead On Arrival 
Everytime someone ships in artillery 
Begins the game wonderin who will the killer be 
There's no war, so the Navy must want to see 
Drugs and guns shift into our country 
So we can shoot each other and sell each other death 
And imprison all the other ones left 
So it's time to start to rise 
We can't be uncivilized, we gotta realize 
That bein the baddest doesn't matter when your life is had 
So let Michael Jackson be Bad
No time to devestate, we gotta elevate 
To a higher level.. than dancin with the devil

Lookin at the fall of our new generation 
Makes me wonder about the Emancipation Proclamation 
We're considered to be free, but did slavery devour 
When we're still slaves to mental death and power 
Misled and unknowin, people are goin 
More and more beneath, instead of growin 
Express Yourself, was said by N.W.A. 
So stop givin trouble a play 
Because those who chose to oppose never rose they all froze 
At thirty-two degrees to enemies 
That already tricked em and made em fall victim 
Mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmm, just look at them 
What we need is peace and love and more love 
But I don't see none of the above 
So one for the bass and two for the treble 
(Come on y'all) Don't "dance with the devil"
