Shame on a nigga who try to run game on a nigga (2X)
Chorus
[RZA]
Drunk like 20 white boys in the back of a pick up truck
With hockey pucks and skateboards on their way to Woodstock
Leave home the glock, and have a gun the size of a black hole
Two planets, don't get frantic
Throw your hands up in the hair, don't panic
Supreme Arm Leg Leg Arm Head, Wu-Tang Clan as tight as strong dread

Shame on a nigga who try to run game on a nigga (2X)
Chorus
[Serj Tankian]
Come wit that ol' loco
Style from my vocal
Couldn't peep it with a pair of bi-focals
I'm no joker! Play me as a joker
Be on you like a house on fire! Smoke ya!
Crews be actin like they gangs, anyway
Be like, "Warriors! Come out and playiyay!"
Burn me, I get into shit, I let it out like diarrhea
Got burnt once, but that was only gonorrhea
Dirty, I keep shit stinks in my drawers
So I can get fzza-funky for yah
Murder, taste the flame of the Wu-Tang RAHH!
Here comes the Tiger verse Crane!
Ow, be like wild with my style
Punk! You playing me, chump, you get DUMPED
WU! Is comin THROUGH! At a theatre near YOU!
And get funk like a SHOE!

Shame on a nigga who try to run game on a nigga (2X)
Chorus
I'll fuck ya ass up (4x)
Bitch!

[RZA]

@@HopeRock425 f"irst of the n word doesn't mean sub-human it is just the Latin word for the color black and to this day the Spanish word for the color black is Spanish,"

In fact, the word "n" was invented to exclude the African people from humanity, the concept of slavery being a paradox to christian societies involved in the African slave trade (you can't reduce a man to slavery even if his skin was black).

Therefore, the slavers had to deny the human identity of the African slaves by using a word with which the people couldn't connect them to humanity (in order to have a good conscience), especially in France and England.That is why they didn't just translated the spanish or portuguese word negro (which means black) into black in english or noir in french.

Reducing the Africans to the colour of their skin with the word "Black" wasn't enough to avoid the paradox, so they created the word "n" which means sub-human.
The Spanish and the Portuguese were less concerned about this problem because they had fought for centuries in the reconquista against the the muslims who used the African people enslaved as soldiers against them.

"second blacks we're not genosided they were seen as barely human object to be used which is just as bad and wrong as genesis but a genocide is when whole communities are systematically killed and destroy just to make sure they don't "

Even if it wasn't the purpose, the atlantic slave trade resulted into a massacre. I've never said it was a genocide.

"Native Americans, lastly," I agree that it was a genocide

"these dudes are Armenian, they get a pass." I agree. It was the point of my statement.

"I am a Ukrainian so my people were genocided against by the Russian Empire that wanted to systematically absorb our culture into theirs so that first statement doesn't apply to me. Also there is something called surgdom which was basically slavery and many Ukrainians were a part of that."

If the Russians wanted to absorb the Ukrainians, it means they didn't want to exterminate you. So it is not the definition of a genocide. They just wanted to exploit you and get rid of your identity like the slavers did to the african people who were enslaved.

Nevertheless, guess were the name slave comes from? From the word Slav as the Slavic people were the majority of the people enslaved and sold to the muslims. Congratulation! You got yout n word pass certificate for you ancestors having being enslaved!

So if your ancestors were considered as sub-humans, there is no offences using the word "n" as there is no competition in suffering. Furthermore, nowadays the concept of being considered as worthless people is more sociological than ethnic, so most part of humanity are "n" for the rich people.

P.S : the "n"word pass doesn't applies for the "j" people because of the word #g-0-y. and because they were greatly involved in the atlantic slave trade of the africans.

Thank you for the debate. I must admit I wasn't enough accurate in my first comment.

Let's make things clear. If your people were victim of massacre or genocide (like the Armenians by the Turks, the Irish by the English etc.), then we can say that they were considered as "n" too back in the days.
In fact, the word "n" was invented to exclude the African people from humanity, the concept of slavery being a paradox to christian societies involved in the African slave trade (you can't reduce a man to slavery even if his skin was black).
Therefore, the slavers had to deny the human identity of the African slaves by using a word with which the people couldn't connect them to humanity (in order to have a good conscience).
Reducing the Africans to the colour of their skin with the word "Black" wasn't enough so they created the word "n" which means sub-human. The fact that it was specifically assigned to the Africans doesn't mean that they own the word or the concept of having been treated like shit though. Thus the word "n" is independent of the color of your skin.
So if your ancestors were considered as sub-humans, there is no offences using the word "n" as there is no competition in suffering. Furthermore, nowadays the concept of being considered as worthless people is more sociological than ethnic, so most part of humanity are "n" in my opinion.
Nevertheless, I'm surprised how the African-Americans still identifying themselves to a colour, using the term "Black-people", that still denying their African origins. The Asians would be offended if you reduce them to the term "Yellow-people". The Europeans wouldn't be offended if you use the term "White" as the creator of this classification was European and put the Europeans on the top of the pyramid.
P.S : the "n"word pass doesn't applies for the "j" people because of the word #g-0-y.

@HopeRock425

@@N0Time thanks for the pass and the debate.
But what you got wrong is that the term was actually coined by the Portuguese who "discovered" South America when searching for trade routes to Asia, and because the people there were black it was how they referred to them, soon the term spread throughout Europe and the reason it didn't change is because to people who didn't know the language just thought that it was a new word as people were quite uneducated back then, after the slave trade started the word started gaining the connotation as less human but this was not it's origin.

Shit, I must be the only person on the planet who likes this cover. I love both System of A Down and Wu-Tang Clan. I just love the fast guitars and Serj's vocals are really awesome. Awesome how he put Ol' Dirty Bastard, Method Man and Raekwon's verses in just two minutes. I love Heavy Metal and Old School Rap so this is a blessing for me. Don't hate appreciate, Wu-Tang Clan and System of A Down ain't nothing to fuck with!
