Song: we don't stop
They gotta war for oil, a war for gold
A war for money and a war for souls
A war on terror, a war on drugs
A war on kindness, a war on hugs
A war on birds and a war on bees
They gotta a war on hippies tryin' save the trees
A war with jets and a war with missiles
A war with high seated government official
Wall Street war on high finance
A war on people who just love to dance
A war on music, a war on speech
A war on teachers and the things they teach
A war for the last five hundred years
War's just messin' up the atmosphere
A war on Muslims, a war on Jews
A war on Christians and Hindus
A whole lotta people sayin' kill them all
They gotta a war on Mumia Abu Jamal
The war on pot is a war that?s failed
A war that's fillin' up the nations jails
World war one, two, three and four
Chemical weapons, biological war
Bush war one and Bush war two
They gotta a war for me, they gotta a war for you
We can't stop it when the beat just drops
And we don't stop
We can't stop it when the rebel rock
And we don't stop
We can't stop until we hit those heights
And we don't stop
We can't stop because we love this life
And we don't stop
Dance to the new day, sing to the new day
Rhyme to the new day, transform hell into
Heaven God lives through, grab hold of today
Yesterday is over, tomorrow may be too late
Everything is one but the one is off balance
Music made for the dollar like soul and talent
Really ain't it all about a feelin' you was havin'
As a child runnin' wild before the mind programmin' set in
Threatenin' your establishment
Get in this energy, lay back and sit
The next men wreckin' to the master's lips
Head spin brethren, get to askin' if
Where, when, Mr. President, "What do you know?"
It's evident settin' in slow, "How does it go?"
An unprecedented event is about to unfold
The devil can't stop, won't stop blockin' the globe
Fall in a cell here, freedom come knockin' at the door
They try lockin' it though but we about to explode
We got the firefly, tiger eye apocalypse flow
So deep in the bottom of your bottomless soul
Send mind darts flyin' out without a pistol
Redesign lost minds got outta the cold
Bring order to a world that is outta control
"Truth", you say, I say, "How do I know?"
We can't stop it when the beat just drops
And we don't stop
We can't stop it when the rebel rock
And we don't stop
We can't stop until we hit those heights
And we don't stop
We can't stop because we love this life
And we don't stop
I wanna rock with punks because I love punk rock
I wanna rock with heads because I love hip hop
I wanna rock my beats all around the block
If I was in Baghdad then I would rock Iraq
I wanna rock with punks because I love punk rock
I wanna rock with heads because I love hip hop
I wanna rock my beats all around the block
There is just one love so the planet we rock
New world days and new world nights
New world wrongs and new world rights
Puttin' new world funds in the new world banks
With the new world guns on the new world tanks
New world devils and new world Gods
New world jails see the new worlds hard
New world names sing the new world songs
New world planes are the new world bombs
New world's flyin', the new world's dyin'
The new world's cryin', the new world's tryin'
New world sons and new world daughters
They are already sellin' us the new world water
New world beats for the new world to bang
New world streets for the new world to hang
New world president, new world drugs
New world resident, new world thugs
New world players for new world sports
New world trials for the new world courts
New world lawyers and new world laws
New world prisons and new world bars
New world fight, the new world's fists
New world lightin' up the new world spliffs
New world smoke in the new world lungs
New world's chokin', the new world's done
We can't stop it when the beat just drops
And we don't stop
We can't stop it when the rebel rock
And we don't stop
We can't stop until we hit those heights
And we don't stop
We can't stop because we love this life
And we don't stop
We can't stop it when the beat just drops
And we don't stop
We can't stop it when the rebel rock
And we don't stop
We can't stop until we hit those heights
And we don't stop
We can't stop because we love this life
And we don't stop
We don't stop
We don't stop
We don't stop
