Bambu - Iron Shiek lyrics
[Bambu - Iron Shiek lyrics]
Take the shit you learned in
High school and dump it
And if you still in school tell your
Principle the curriculum don't cut it
A 100 Miles And Running and nothing to show
Diploma and nowhere to go
Join the working force and leave home
Minimum wage
Living this way is close enough to a slave
That if you working day in and day
Out with just enough money to pay
The slave owner who provided you
Water, gas and power by the hour
You won't even know your kids
Devoured by the same shit consuming you
Consumer movement using you
To build the shit for wealthy men to continue
Fucking you nothing new in the sun
Say something and get hung
But follow the model of profit or
The people with a gun
And if a tree falls will anybody hear it?
If ain't nobody near it
They will if you take the
Whole forest with it uh
From playing out NWA
To playing a whole beat CD from MTK yah!
From 1 to a 1000 we gather around it
We learning some we ain't scared of 'em
Fight back fight back
Fight back you better fight back
Take the shit they say on
Television and kill it
Newscasters spit it like snake
To keep citizens ignorant
But fuck that with a fist
Weather woman try to warn us
But barely cover her tit's it's the game
Men lie, women lie, but
Numbers keep the money piling up
The Iron Shiek let the iron speak
And sent to occupy your running
Till blood cover his feet
Be strategic as they are
When they killing ours
Equate a women's worth by what was left
To spend on a Visa card
Or bombing water pipes that
Lead to drinking wells
Like Palestinian villages get done by Israel
Real talk till the wheels fall off or
The steering wheel locks
We yelling and nodding till we get whiplash
Working hard and still stuck here
Like a spin class
MTK we got a W, W for the win
IGW the dick who told America fibs
A W when they bred the
Whole Boo-Yaa Tribe clique
The W, where we still bumping DJ Quik
Dare to struggle, dare to win x6
Dare to struggle and dare to win yeah
High school and dump it
And if you still in school tell your
Principle the curriculum don't cut it
A 100 Miles And Running and nothing to show
Diploma and nowhere to go
Join the working force and leave home
Minimum wage
Living this way is close enough to a slave
That if you working day in and day
Out with just enough money to pay
The slave owner who provided you
Water, gas and power by the hour
You won't even know your kids
Devoured by the same shit consuming you
Consumer movement using you
To build the shit for wealthy men to continue
Fucking you nothing new in the sun
Say something and get hung
But follow the model of profit or

And if a tree falls will anybody hear it?
