After reading couple of Charu's article about the music, it enlightened my listening abilities.(for this matter, i'm strictly not recommending charu for idiots..he's the real joker from dark knight..he just upsets that established order).
So with that insight i listened to this song and i was realizing few things abt the song, then i immediately downloaded the lyrics and read it once...wow..what a song.
The pain that colored people underwent for the past several decades had been just put up in a 4.42 mins song in a most beautiful way. This song is a brutal truth, not only abt colored people, but it hold good to any type of discrimination...the questions he put forth and how arrogantly he breaks them to pieces are just mindblowing... for example:
"Beat me, hate me
You can never break me
Will me, thrill me
You can never kill me
Jew me, sue me
Everybody do me
Kick me, kike me
Don't you black or white me
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
Tell me what has become of my life
I have a wife and two children who love me
I am the victim of police brutality, now
I'm tired of bein' the victim of hate
You're rapin' me of my pride
Oh, for God's sake
I look to heaven to fulfill its prophecy...
Set me free"
You can never break me
Will me, thrill me
You can never kill me
Jew me, sue me
Everybody do me
Kick me, kike me
Don't you black or white me
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
All I wanna say is that
They don't really care about us
Tell me what has become of my life
I have a wife and two children who love me
I am the victim of police brutality, now
I'm tired of bein' the victim of hate
You're rapin' me of my pride
Oh, for God's sake
I look to heaven to fulfill its prophecy...
Set me free"
This is definitely not a person asking others to treat him equally, but it just says how he feels when u ill treat.When u listen to this song with utmost abilities and all your senses open, then you'll never discriminate your fellow human !!!!
MJ, whatever the world may call you, i just adore you !!!!!!
