Meet the G That Killed Me Lyrics

[Intro: Frances Cress Welsing]
Every black person who says that they're a leader needs to pen blazing questions about HIV
And get an answer to the question "How could it be in a book published in 1969?"
Under chemical and biological warfare
Tell 'em

[Verse: Chuck D & Flavor Flav]
Man to man, I don't know if they can
From what I know, the parts don't fit (Ah shit)

How he's sharin' a needle with a drug addict
He don't believe he has it either
But now he does, he doesn't know
'Cause he goes straight to a ho

Tell you what who was next on the butt
Wild thingin' on a germ runnin' wild
Yo stop! But the bag popped

Damn!

[Outro: Flavor Flav]
Ay yo, Terminator man, yo meet the G that killed me

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

Dabbling a little in the homophobic territory of early ‘90s rap on this controversial skit, Public Enemy speaks on the then recent subject of AIDS in the black community.

The skit opens with a spoken word segment sampled from a speech by Frances Cress Welsing, who was one of the promoters of the conspiracy theory that AIDS/HIV was created by the US government as a biological weapon and purposely unleashed upon the black community.

The rest of the skit is a monologue by Chuck D, in which he details how the disease of AIDS is spreading amongst heterosexuals in the black community: in this case, a drug addict who contracted AIDS from sharing hypodermic needles, who then infects a prostitute, who then infects Chuck D after his condom breaks.

The sketch ends with a somber Flavor Flav telling Terminator X about “the G who killed me”; implying that Chuck D’s story is actually Flavor Flav’s.
