Lyrics: Prince. Come. Race.

Lie down, fair one and come away
Till the rain is over and gone, gimme the beat now
Face the music
Lead line
Face the music

If the air is a little thick in this room tonite
I reckon it's the result
Of an onslaught of separatist rookies
Overcome by this colorful sight

Talkin' so fast that even they
Talkin' so fast that even they
Don't know what they mean

Of all the things that base a rhyme
How is it that you every time
Regurgitate the racist lines
That keep us apart?

Thank God
This ain't monopoly
You'd make us all go
Back to start

Race in the space I mark human
Face the music
Race, face the music
We all bones when we dead

Race in the space I mark human
Face the music
Cut me, cut you
But both the blood is red, I gotcha

Race, race
Check it

Three seats over there's a lady black
Entrusted to her care is a little white girl
And the fact of the matter is

Before her momma or another kid at school
Tells her about the fallacy
That one race rules over the other
She'd be a much better off left fool
Face the music

If we never heard about the evils
That those before us committed
Then how my dear, tell me now how my dear
Tell me now how now would we know

And then the band say
Race in the space I mark human
Face the music
Race, face the music
We all bones when we dead

Race in the space I mark human
Face the music
Cut me, cut you
But both the blood is red, I gotcha

Race, race
Face the music

Down with H I S T O R Y and all this BS propagandi
Keepin' you from me and me from you as we grow
I don't wanna know, I don't wanna know
Why those before us hated each other

I'd rather believe they never did
I'd rather believe, I'd rather, I'd rather believe
That there's hope for a kid

And if he imitates the best
I guess that's what I'll try to be
And I will let the rest dissolve
With my guitar underneath the sea

Race
Face, face, face, face, face
Face the music
Face the music, now
Face the music

Race in the space I mark human
Face the music
Race, face the music
We all bones when we dead

Race in the space I mark human
Face the music
Cut me, cut you
Both the blood is red, get it?

Race, got it

Race, face the music
Race, race
Face, face the music
Race, race

Face, face the music
Race, race, race, race
Face, face, face the music
Race
