“Each One Teach One” is about the duty of Five Percenters to share their knowledge with another person from the 85% of the population. The end-goal is for them to wake up, as they have been misled by the remaining 10%, the elite.
This is an upbeat rap song set in the context of black nationalism in...
[Verse 1: Wise Intelligent]
Each one teach one
That’s how; what we do best
Teaching you savage righteousness
Learn to be true to this
It’s not like ya’ feel soft
In a science of everything in life
And about one century from now
These Devils around
Wanna paint me white
Jesus Christ is known to some
Symbolic to the gods
Was an original man
Today has blonde hair
And blue eyes
Little white lies are overlooked
By those they rose
They failed to see
Sticking the pins in the heads of the youth
They making the duty much harder for me
That's the nation's civilization
A fatherless state of such
Poor Righteous Teachers on the case
But suckas’ won’t be suckin’ much
Rich slave makers of the poor
For such a stand to kids ya lie
Cries of poverty, what's gotta be that
Which got me like, free me or die
So they say “Oh hell, here they come”
Black men from Jerusalem
With that science of law and order
Entitled “Each One Teach One”
[Hook]
Now
Tell ‘em how we, oh
Now listen
Tell ‘em how we, oh
Now listen
Tell ‘em how we are
Tell ‘em how we are P.R.T
Tell ‘em how we, oh
Now Wise say
Tell ‘em how we, oh
Now Wise go
Tell ‘em how we are
Tell ‘em how we are P.R.T
[Verse 2]
Each One Teach One
Got positive and I give that of the truth
Ask you "Who is that mystery God?
Does he exist? You show no proof"
Black people are poisoned from the start
Pin in the head
Fear in the heart
This results of what you teach them:
Black church, white men on the wall
You tell them God be's that of a spook
Symbolic to that of Casper
Pictures you show of the son of the God looks like the slave master
Has to be some tricks to this
‘Cuz these just ain’t the facts
Why? God is true and livin’
Listen, Jesus Christ was Black
Lack a little, lose a lot
My message to the fools
None of us own forty acres
None of us own mules
Schools are open all the time
Culture, Shaheed's, also mine
Teachers rest within the ghetto
Those who seek shall surely find
Culture Cipher Cipher miles
And some miles to be exact
That’s four hundred and some years
They kept the truth away from Black
Now, each one teach one
I’m symbolic to the sun
See this moon reflect the light
Onto me Understanding
And
[Hook]
Tell ‘em how we, oh
Now, Wise say
Tell ‘em how we, oh
Now Wise go
Tell ‘em how we are
Tell ‘em how we are P.R.T
Tell ‘em how we, oh
Now Wise go
Tell ‘em how we, oh
Now Wise go
Tell ‘em how we are
Tell ‘em how we are P.R.T
[Verse 3]
Each one teach one
Black man teach woman
And she’ll teach youth
The truth about himself, herself
And proof was living proof
Of math and math is mind
And mind created all that be's
The sun, the moon, the stars
The number of planets and all that seem
Some try chasing dreams
But never find the dreams they seek
Wake up is all I ask
‘Cause dreams imply to sleep
Keep the statement I apply
It’s truth and some it hurts
What if a murder miss the proof
The drugs, the school, the crack, the church
Bear witness to He
The builder and destroyer
And all you negative snakes
I hate it for ya’
“Oh hell, here they come”
Black men from Jerusalem
With that science of law and order
Entitled “Each one teach one”
Culch!
[Hook]
Tell ‘em how we are
Shaheed!
Tell ‘em how we are
Tone!
Tell ‘em how we are
Tell ‘em how we are
Tell ‘em how we are P.R.T
Tell ‘em how we are
The Wise!
Tell ‘em how we are
Culture!
Tell ‘em how we are
Tell ‘em how we are
Tell ‘em how we are P.R.T
