Allow me to re introduce Artists who speak 'bout the truth Dropping knowledge for the youth Hello, I'm here to reclaim my juice I want it now 'cause it's over due Snap on these actors who sold out the culture I need reparations from you, and all you Muh'fuckas How much you made off our blood you been sucking? If you aint bout it then don't interrupt us We breaking the structure Lil homie eating big brother Mad cuz we don't "Obey" We feel some type o' way Plus we got time today Black berets Feeling like f*ck a community if you don't own it Challenge who really control it Land of the free but they still won't admit that it's stolen Nigga, stay focused F*ck- shit- up til it aint no' mo' It's been too long on this status quo The revolution's televised The revolution's televised Smell like a free nigga don't it? Ain't no head starts, we gone start overthrowing! We gon' pop out with them skills we been honin. My people prudent 'bout our self improvement All these Black bodies embody the movement This for the culture and we speak it fluent Black folk' producing that life you're consuming. Give us the loot for the shit we influence Or we just gon have to take Action Now we got traction We taking off you hoes like we backed in Videos, tweeting, and gramming, and faxing No it ain't nice but you lucky we askin. This ain't a drill, the world behind us While we breaking these ties that bind us I suggest that you take off them blinders And you bump this shit as a reminder We gone f*ck shit up til it aint no mo I aint done with that yet Challenge the system that aide and abet the incompetent racists with mentals unchecked If you weak, of course you 'perceiving a threat' Sorry, I mean this with all due respect But get yo muhfuckin knee on my neck We gone f*ck- shit- up til it aint no' mo' It's been too long on this status quo The revolution's televised The revolution's televised You can cry yo tears at the minstrel show. You and all your peers 'bouta be exposed The revolution's televised The revolution's televised We the people energized (We the) Unity is recognized (People) Pushing back is ill advised (We The) Your positions compromised (People) Front line holding tight (We The) Shouldn't come as no surprise (People) See it with your own eyes (We The) The revolution's televised (People) Keep on applying the pressure We expect more than political gestures Don't push my niggas, we bringing the message Something bout all this oppression make me get aggressive, Then I be like Ooh That's how I move Im from the city where niggas is mad rude Plus you got me in a bad mood Hoarding my freedom like prized jewels This is art, I aint in the street You should be happy I'm write the heat Yo favorite rapper want Regi on the beat Study the greats and put my shit on repeat Heavy If this is the rapture, you should get ready Pray for yo' savior cuz I flow deadly My soul is colder than a broke levee We can just leave the hatchet unburied We gon f*ck- shit- up til it aint no' mo' It's been too long on this status quo The revolution's televised The revolution's televised The revolution's televised The revolution's televised
