Come on Ugh Although ya try to discredit Ya still never edit The needle I'll thread it Radically poetic Standin' with the fury that they had in '66 And like E-Double I'm mad, still knee deep in the system's shit Hoover, he was a body remover I'll give you a dose but it could never come close to the rage Built up inside of me Fist in the air in the land of hypocrisy Movements come and movements go Leaders speak movements cease when their heads are flown Cause all these punks got bullets in their heads Departments of police (what?), the judges (what?), the feds (the feds) Networks at work, keepin' people calm You know they went after King, when he spoke out on Vietnam He turned the power to the have-nots And then came the shot Yeah Yeah, back in this With poetry my mind I flex Flip like Wilson, vocals never lackin' dat finesse Who I got ta who I got to do to wake you up To shake you up to break the structure up Cause blood still flows in the gutter I'm like taking photos Mad boy kicks open the shutter Set the groove Then I stick and move like I was Cassius Rep the stutter step Then bomb a left upon the fascists Yeah, several federal men Who pulled schemes on the dream And put it to an end Ya betta beware Of retribution with mind war 20/20 visions and murals with metaphors Networks at work, keepin' people calm Ya know they murdered X And tried to blame it on Islam He turned the power to the have-nots And then came the shot Uggh! What was the price on his head? What was the price on his heaad? I think I heard a shot (x5) I think I heard, I think I heard a shot Black Nationalism He may be a brave contender for this position Should he abandon his supposed obedience to the white liberal doctrine of non-violence And embrace black nationalism Through counter intellence it should be possible to pinpoint potential trouble-makers and neutralize them x2 And neutralize them x6 WAKE UP x8 Hey! How long, not long Cause what you reap Is what you sow! |
