Now get the f*ck up off me nigga As I, struggle to keep my balance and composure I'm 'posed ta, propose a toast to players on every coast-a The lyrical roller coaster, mind-bender 'Stead of watching these sucker MC's I'm seeing just how they lying to the general population Don't be patient, get up and stand up for your life Don't you agree or understand we lost some rights at 1-1-9? Come dumb, come young, come blind unwind confined To the situation, we facing, cause in time, tick tick boom Tick, boom, tick, tick-boom Tick, boom, tick, tick-boom Tick, boom, tick, tick-boom Tick, boom, tick, tick-boom "You're gonna die here" When will we all, awake up out this dream Come here and smell the Folgers, the soldiers are human beings Man acting as if he was the supreme being Clocking the souls of men out like he was G-O-D and W-A-Rrah, there'll be no tomorrow but sorrow And horror will follow the hollow hearts battle for dollars Politicians, modern day magicians Physicians of death, more health care for poor health Who making us ill, they making us kill That's making me spill my guts (chill Big, lay in the cut) For what? I refuse to sit in the backseat and get handled Like I do nothing all day but sit around watch the Cartoon Channel I rap about, the Presidential election and the scandal That followed, and we all watched the nation, as it swallowed And chalked it up, basically America you got FUCKED The media shucked and jived now we stuck - damn! "Can't be heard clearly" "You're gonna die here" Operation Anaconda, ask yourself Was it full of bleeps and blunders, did they ever find Osama? And why in the f*ck did Daniel Pearl have to pay the price For his life and his wife plead twice? See Al-Amin got life and Fred got dead, Hampton To dampen the dream of all the Panthers They got they answer for ransom As we read together, as we dream together Count your blessings whenever you feel that things won't be no better But it got to, you gave me this microphone so I must rock you Your brainwaves, airwaves, energized and shocked you Y'all got me, well I got y'all, long as I know y'all listenin' I'ma always bring food for thought to the table in the kitchen Now eat nigga!
