Yo the media the probably want us to quiet down Like we could simply forget Eric Gardner and Mike Brown And right now I think about Trayvon It's funny cuz I ain't never felt the same with hoodie on On this record I'm getting my bully on And if they thinking that this is just a song Well ya wrong I'm sounding off the record So people could the message I'm Babe Ruth with the truth swinging straight for the fences I'm out here in the trenches trying to save the defenseless See people talk about change but do nothing to make a difference I can't take hearing a mother cry Sons and daughters victims of homicide Everybody quiet I'm so sick and tired of the Murda I grew up inspired by the likes of civil rights leaders Who sacrificed their lives in order to lead us They marched singing go tell on the mountain But their great grandchildren could drink form freedoms fountain I wonder where would we all be now If Rosa parks never took that stand by sitting down And when I think about it now Would Ali still be considered the greatest if we fought in Vietnam But now where are the fathers where are the teachers where are the prophets and preachers I overstand my platform The hood ain't trying hear no Sermon on Sunday So through these bars I adapt to'um Cuz they thinking It's all about money cars Clothes and they killing it But they ignorant to the fact they straight up Just Willie Lynching it I'm down to go for broke To give my people hope So when they hear me what they hearing is Malcolm x with the Holy Ghost I'm a byproduct of Mandela and Martin With songs that pierce the hearts of men to repent I got my fist in the air for the revolution Cross on my shoulder man that just how we do it If you ain't bout the people then tell me what we're doing This is Kingdom music No confusion No excuses Revolution Music See we got to get it together to make sense of it all Our ultimate downfall We fighting the wrong war Come on That's if we're even fighting at all So how long we just gon sit back and watch our destruction While people that can do something choose to do nothing come Cuz we're more concerned bout our bills then these kids getting killed And we're so quick to complain Instead of working towards change Who gon teach our boys how to be men? Who gon teach our young girls to be women And not just twerking and stripping I mean where are father's? Where are the Teacher's? Where are the mentors? And where are the leaders? The Same book that was used to enslave us Is now the same book that's fueling our liberation Its not just bout making disciple of nation Bur it's about being world shakers and difference makers That's the call commission and proclamation This ain't a song see this is a declaration It's only right I turn this stage into my pulpit And try to convey some truth Cuz all I see is confusion It's either people sleeping Or they just being foolish You got all of these followers but what do you influence See this is more then music It's time to rep the movement You can't complain Stand for nothing and full of excuses I got my fist in the air for the revolution Cross on my shoulder man that just how we do it If you ain't bout the people then tell me what we're doing This is Kingdom music No confusion No excuses Revolution Music
