Hey I got a project from school I gotta do and was wondering if any of you could offer some help. I have to find a song that talks about the meaning of life, and play the song and present the lyrics to the class and just explain the song for a couple min, and thats all the instructions we were given, so I guess it can be intrepeted anyway you want.
doesnt matter if theres swearing in the song or not just gotta be good

If you're religious, B.I.B.L.E. on Liquid Swords would work.

Ras Kass - Nature of the Threat
Ras Kass - Interview with a Vampire
i think im gonan use ras kass- interview witha vampire only problem is there is a few lines i dotn understand could someone explain them to me?
I created man in my image and the black man was first.
The scientific explanation, yea I made man out of dirt.
God:
Listen, single-celled organisms.
The homosapien, the albanein
Ras Kass:
What's that?
God:
White people.
Ras Kass:
They keep the world seperate and unequal.
God:
The teach you, right is wrong, wrong is right.
Up is down.
im a white guy and this verse sound sliek its basically ripping white ppl unless im interpreting it wrong which would be kinda ridiculous to present in front of a class full of white ppl
Originally posted by brett1012Don't use that song. Too much controversy. The perfect song for your project would be Deepspace 5- This Curse I Bear. I had a similar project to do a few years back, and that's the song i used. Got an 'A'.

If you want the song, just send me a PM.
and here are the lyrics for Deepspace 5- This Curse I Bear
playdough:
i swear, i care not what the man thinks/
my plan aint paper til drips with the fruit of my
lips/
yet, if i get no dap from hand clap/
from rap that i make, my tangible heart break/
manchild:
with my arms wide open, i hold opponents to my creed/
in arrangement, shoplifting stolen moments that i
need/
play stick ball with my chances, broke the window on a
street car named desire/
parked next to the chariots of fire/
listener:
held down in this quagmire tarnishing crowns as i
perspire/
dwindling empires as i plug wires to transcribe my
fire/
filling ears with my word lives wrapped tight to let
you describe/
the feeling through your own eyes/
manchild:
and they throw their souls up in the air, cause thats
the coin they like to toss/
they want life without the loss, they want christ
without the cross/
pretty faces, empty inside race the runway, although
some say/
gunplay move the crowd someday, by bloody sunday/
sev statik:
i dont bother writing flows about clothes and cars/
record sales is not a measure of how dope you are/
and this knowledge is what seperates us from them/
i rather snuff the page, then beat it down with my
pen/
playdough:
microphone testing, a blessing indeed/
i stay pressing the seed, hoping the hearts will
receive/
in grounds fertile, a brown journal holding the
picture/
a mixture of heart plus emotion form my lyric to your
spirit/
hook:
this curse i bear, this curse i swear/
yall never know the despair between the kick and the
snare/
i scream for you to wake up, but you just dont care/
you sleeping on my speaking, is my worst nightmare/
manchild:
grit my teeth and close my eyes, still see the misery
that kills men/
ill just take another step and draw the energy from my
children/
until then, ill just feel the pain and let you hurt
me/
cry my tears in a bottle, so you can drink it when
youre thirsty/
listener:
inviting you to constantly listen and not just hear/
to be here where i am would cause most people to not
do this next year/
for fear that nobody would listen and only sneer/
believing that your target audience wouldnt cheer/
makes you so anxious youll just stand clear/
well heres a tape and to my thoughts i hope you're
near/
to my concepts please adhere your mind and life/
in the way thats the most advantageous for your to
mirror/
playdough:
hey man, i gotta snare and a verse where im bearing a
curse/
got me wondering if smothering my kick to disperse
this hi-hat/
im setting it free, its gotta be the same night i
called it day/
what should i say?/
sev statik:
i write massive amounts of rhymes but the masses dont
hear/
dont care about checking me out, i swear/
i be cursing my verses and these statements i walk on/
i guess my talk is too rich for these fools, with
jewels in my songs/
hook:
listener:
bound by the realization of what it is that i get up
for/
because its not the sun not the day/
i do it for fear that ill lose my perception in the
long run/
losing the contrast proverbially of the night to the
days bright sun/
playdough:
a curse is squeezed in an ill verse, to a full bar
purse/
i couldnt spend or bend the rhyme pattern/
tryna represent with limited content/
then vent my feelings free inside of these emcees/
manchild:
see, its hard to hide the fact that its not
interesting when im listening/
me a disappointment go together like cigarettes and
nicotine/
and when it seems my dreams collide with a name on my
place card/
ill drop below the radar, simply focus on the day
star/
sev statik:
its seems to me im hated, cause i choose to be
creative/
im like a leper in a town of fools/
an outcast making statements against deception/
sending all of us to hell, worshipping the image of
wealth with a poor image of self/
listener:
doing work causing hurt always writing verbs/
speak absurd when you heard how i say these words/
fleshing out pounds of truth from this recording
booth/
when you finally came to care about this curse i bear/
hook:
