wake up lyrics

Come on!
Ughh!

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
Department of police, the judge, 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 fitnesse
Whadda I got to, whadda I got to do to wake you up
To shake you up, to break the structure up
'Cause blood still floods in the gutter
I'm like takin' photos
Mad boy kicks open the shutter
Set the groove
Then I stick and move like I was Cassius
Rep the stutter step
Then bomb a left upon the facists
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
The 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

Ughh!
What was the price on his head?
What was the price on his head?

I think I heard a shot(x5)
I think I heard, I think I heard a shot.

'He may be a real contender for this position if he abandons his supposed obedience to white liberal doctrines of non-violence, and embraces black nationalism.'
'Through counter-intelligence it should be possible to pinpoint potential trouble makers, and neutralize them...And neutralize them, and neutralize them, and neutralize them.'

Wake Up!(x8)

How long? Not long,
'cause what you reap is what you sow
