Evil That Men Do - Queen Latifah

You asked, I came, so behold the Queen

Let’s add a little sense to the scene

I’m living positive, not out here knocked up

But the lines are so dangerous, I ought to be locked up

This rhyme doesn’t require prime time

I’m just sharing thoughts of mine

Back again cause I knew you wanted it

>From the Latifah with the Queen in front of it

Dropping bombs, you’re up in arms, you’re puzzled

The lines will flow like fluid while you’re guzzling

The sip I drop you on a BDP-produced track

>From KRS to be exact

It’s a Flavor Unit quest that today has me speaking

Cause it’s knowledge I’m seeking

Enough about myself, I think it’s time that I tell you

About the evil that men do

Situations, reality, what a concept!

Nothing ever seems to stay in step

So today, here is a message to my sisters and brothers

Here are some things I want to cover

A woman strives for a better life, but who the hell cares?

Because she’s living on welfare

I government can’t come up with a decent housing plan

So she’s in no man’s land

It’s a sucker who tells you you’re equal

You don’t need him, Johannasburg’s crying for freedom!

We the people hold these truths to be self-evident

But there’s no response from the president

Someone’s living the good life, tax-free

Except for a girl, can’t find a way to be crack free

And that’s just part of the message

I thought I had to send you about the evil that men do

Tell me, don’t you think it’s a shame?
