WAKE UP Lyrics

Intro Come on! Chorus Ugh! Come On! 1. Verse Although you try to discredit You 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 you 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 2. Verse 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 Chorus Yeah Yeah, back in this 3. Verse Wit' poetry, my mind I flex Flip like Wilson, vocals never lackin' that finesse What I got to, what I got to do to wake you up To shake you up, to break the structure up 'Cause this blood still flows 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 shutter step Then bomb a left upon the fascists 4. Verse Yeah, the several federal men Who pulled schemes on the dream And put it to an end You better beware Of retribution with mind war 20/20 visions and murals with metaphers Networks at work, keepin' people calm You know they murdered X And tried to blame it on Islam He turned the power to the have-nots And then came the shot Solo 1 Bridge Ugh! What was the price on his head I think I heard a shot (4x) Outro I think I heard a shot I think I heard, I think I heard a shot Chorus Wake up! (8x) Solo (wild) Yeah! End How long? Not long 'Cause what you reap Is what you sow
