Come on   Uggh   Come on, although ya try to discredit   Ya still never edit   The needle, I'll thread it   Radically poetic   Standin' with the fury that they had in '66   And like e-double I'm mad   Still knee-deep in the system's shit   Hoover, he was a body remover   I'll give ya a dose   But it'll never come close   To the rage built up inside of me   Fist in the air, in the land of hypocrisy      Movements come and movements go   Leaders speak, movements cease   When their heads are flown   'Cause all these punks   Got bullets in their heads   Departments of police, the judges, the feds   Networks at work, keepin' people calm   You know they went after king   When he spoke out on vietnam   He turned the power to the have-nots   And then came the shot      Yeah      Yeah, back in this   Wit' poetry, my mind I flex   Flip like wilson, vocals never lackin' dat finesse   Whadda I got to, whadda I got to do to wake ya up   To shake ya up, to break the structure up   'Cause blood still flows in the gutter   I'm like takin' photos   Mad boy kicks open the shutter   Set the groove   Then stick and move like I was cassius   Rep the stutter step   Then bomb a left upon the fascists   Yea, the several federal men   Who pulled schemes on the dream   And put it to an end      Ya better beware   Of retribution with mind war   20/20 Visions and murals with metaphors   Networks at work, keepin' people calm   Ya know they murdered x   And tried to blame it on islam   He turned the power to the have-nots   And then came the shot      Uggh   What was the price on his head?   What was the price on his head      I think I heard a shot (5 times)   I think I heard, I think I heard a shot      Background 'black nationalism'   'He may be a real contender for this position should he   Abandon his supposed obediance to white liberal doctrine   Of non-violence and embrace black nationalism'   'Through counter-intelligence it should be possible to   Pinpoint potential trouble-makers '   'And neutralise them'      Wake up! wake up! wake up! wake up   Wake up! wake up! wake up! wake up      Spoken 'how long? not long, 'cause   What you reap is what you sow.'
