This message is transmitted at the request of
The President of the United States of
America and the Office of Homeland Security
In compliance with the United Nations
The President of the United
States has declared
Martial Law curfew is now in place
Return to your homes any congregating of
Two or more people outside of
Your homes will result in you being arrested
On sight anyone possessing a firearm
Or any item or instrument that can
Be used as a weapon will
Be deemed an enemy of the state and
Will be arrested on sight uN
Peacekeeping garrisons have severed
All data transmissions
And telephone communications for
National security
Any violation of martial law will result in
Immediate arrest and trial for treason
All traitors will be shot America is
Now engaged in civil war (Civil war)

It's already started, maybe too late to stop
It's already on, they shooting the cops
They pushing the line, racism is high
The country's divided, you know the fuck why
The press of the pull, and push of the truth
The public is dumb, delusional youth
Our leaders are evil, lie after lie
The public is armed, and ready to die
(Ready to die)

(Civil war)
What side you on when the shit pops off?
Black or white, wrong or right? (Civil war)
Rich or poor, urban war
Shit might just jump off tonight (Civil war)
What side you on when the shit pops off?
Black or white, wrong or right? (Civil war)
This shit is true
Coming soon to a town near you

They don't care about nothing
Just personal gain
These politicians wouldn't mind a war
Motherfuck your pain
Cops are killing people and never do time
In the hood we killing each other
Like that ain't no crime
I'm feeling the tension
Don't tell me you don't
These fools will get us all killed
Don't tell me they won't
There's guns on the streets
It's already too late
The net's overloaded with pure racial hate
The press just instigate, they love a fight
Don't give a fuck about who gets
Hurt just news that night
They try and twist the problem
Like it's white and black
But, if you come to shoot me
Yo I'm shooting back

(Civil war)
What side you on when the shit pops off?
Black or white, wrong or right? (Civil war)
Rich or poor, urban war
Shit might just jump off tonight (Civil war)
What side you on when the shit pops off?
Black or white, wrong or right? (Civil war)
This shit is true
Coming soon to a town near you

(Civil war)
What side you on when the shit pops off?
Black or white, wrong or right? (Civil war)
Rich or poor, urban war
Shit might just jump off tonight (Civil war)
What side you on when the shit pops off?
Black or white, wrong or right? (Civil war)
This shit is true
Coming soon to a town near you
