Feet on the pavement, mind in the clouds
Either I make an appeal or the rage will just find a way out
We've been told stories, but it's not what it really is
When the bomb drops for the onslaught cops done shot a civilian
Nah man, this is not an opinion
Except for all of the most common of idiots
Got caught in a brawl for the city it's
A pity the piggies'll never follow the millions
The people know,
A bigger number of the amateurs can beat the pros
A bigger number of the challengers can tweak the polls
They're bringing up another caliber to keep control, so
It's back to the silence, adapt to the climate
They're mad and they're frightened, the Man is a sham so they have to defy him
Is he making a difference? bringing change to the system?
Or paving the way for the claim that the state shouldnt pay for their victims?
It's asinine, this is little more than a pantomime
We are little more than a cash supply for these cats who try to distract your mind, and then act surprised when we vandalise
Tell me again where the scandal lies
Tell me again why the people in charge ain't giving us a reason to stand behind them
The facts are blinding, but so many can't see them
Made to believe that the streets where they bleed are a garden of Eden
Fuck that, we know the truth
The only thing they've ever wanted is control of you
A hold on you a motion to look over you
Making sure you do what you’ve been told to do
It’s the start of ending, hope I've got your attention
I’ve honestly gotten so tired of all of this constant pretending
Gotta stick to the facts, when I spit this ima split the attack
Tit for a tat, so we sing and we rap, motivate the people in the city to react
Bringing back to the time where the music
Could have been used to inspire a movement
Firing through all the lies from the booth
Strive to acquire that sly bit of truth
Trying to prove that we're never gonna break
So im severing the tether with a letter to the state
Better to be clever than forever in a daze
So I'm getting to a level where I never hesitate
Straight to the jugular, straight to the point
So aim for the love cuz hate disappoints
Make it a choice
Don't play the same game they play to maintain the restraint in your voice
Gotta do whats good for business
Make a mistake, find a crooked witness
So that innocent blacks turn to hood delinquents
In about as much time as it took to spit this
Cooked statistics, dirty cops
Who, with a bit of help from their attorney, walk
We try to make a change with the words we drop
But they're always ahead like an early clock
It's how it is, not how it's gonna be
We've spent enough time dealing with this fuckery
Blood guts and guns, we've had enough of these
The people want a change so now we're headed for recovery
In a bruised up land,
The fools who choose the rules are chewed up scams
Get a new front man its a screwed up plan
When your senators are chilling with the ku klux clan
And we know that it all goes way back
Honest politicians are a needle in a haystack
Drop bombs over misplaced payback
Keep your Trump card, we don't wanna see you play that
The hate and belligerence
It's a shame it had to get to this
Start making a difference
Wake up, see the wasteland that you're living in
