From the comandante to the presidente I did it for you, said it was the people's coup Took the rule from the few, it didn't come out the blue Say the rich can all stew, we took they shit and now they sue And the courts are kangaroo, and torches bring the fire Now we Kang like Liu And Spartacus league, we out yo league like Drew We brewing something twisted, and we know you all conflicted Obsessed with all the goods and by the ring you are afflicted Listen Aye tell 'em, you a got choice Say it's the pen or it's the lead Gotta change your ways or else we coming for your head And we been inspired by the blood already shed What we got to lose, shit don't improve We good as dead (What we got to lose, shit don't improve We good as dead) And free trade is cool, and they say it's so efficient Better be self sufficient, check yo gini coefficient Say we needed dependence, cause our states were so deficient Conceived of a plot, and then it sprang at independence It's the people's spring, but they'd rather have the bling The wolf wasn't lone, let's give everyone a home But they give us microloans Aye tell em, you a got choice Say it's the pen or it's the lead Gotta change your ways or else we coming for your head And we been inspired by the blood already shed What we got to lose, shit don't improve We good as dead We good as dead What we got to lose, shit don't improve We good as dead (What we got to lose, shit don't improve We good as dead) There's a specter haunting America, the specter of debt When the system falls apart, you better pack you a vest It's best to stay abreast, when we get beset Said that rate wasn't set, that's how it made us all depressed A world upside down and now your house is repossessed Taxes kept state skeptics, they always beck'd But it begs the question, why Republicans run a deficit Who cares about the policy, you reppin' your set And it's all a fucking show, you know these niggas on set Could have made a Migo reference, why the bosses filled with deference And they show no reverence, if you ain't got no reference Say they is they preference, in they residence Let my words be my legacy, my remnants And if you get to heaven, send remittances Minutes, seconds, remembrance They called us slaves, they were belligerent I'm sentimental, you don't have to guess my sentiments White Supremacists have the influence They attacked us, but we the menaces We the citizens, the denizens F*ck the borders let us in You the people can't pretend All living a life of sin The civil war is heat, so we fighting in the street Don't wanna sound oblique, beware of the fascist creep Oh, how they made us weep Took the wheel while we were sleep Ran us off a cliff, it's steep Unload the clips, on back of Jeeps
