Would U lyrics with English Translations
Wen I speak, do you feel weak
Wen you hear my thoughts
Do you feel caught in the web of hopelessness
Wen I say black Do you feel it's an attack Or a lack of understandin' on my part Or just wrath Comin' from me do you see, me As a tret to your safety Wen I say whitey Do you consider dat bigotry If I say I cared not about politics Would you consider me an anarchist If I say no to religion Would that be considered An extention of my misconcepton About what you think of me Do you see what I mean
If I said I didn't smoke, or take coke Would you take it for a joke And cry then wonder why I told such a lie Are you upset because my poems sometimes make you fret About the future of things to come
Would you call me a brute, if I wore a suit Or said I was cute Do you think I would be a better writer If my poems were lighter Spoke more about nature Or some adventure that gave me pleasure
Would you love me more If I spoke less about the poor And talked about the women I adore
Now after listenin' to this Are you lookin' for a twist Or just another rhyme In the next line
The solutions that you seek Will not be in the streak Of a pen or even ten line of mine
The problems are the same But don't blame me because I see That part of reality That pains and stains the heart I came into this life With neither guns or knives I made no laws with all its flaws About black and white And what's wrong from what's right I speak I write of what I see Of men holdin' men in slavery Of colour, class and greed
So don't blame me if wen I speak You do feel weak, I did not create Tell me this now Would you accuse me of causin' a riot If I was quiet, would you
