Dead prez - Animal in Man lyrics

Help me! You ask me to help you?!
Man is evil
Capable of nothing but destruction!

Once upon a time
There was a very serious situation growing
There was a farmer and a
Farmyard filled with animals
And this is the story of their times

Old man Sammy had a farm
Walked the land with the rifle
Most of the time shit was calm
His whole life was maintained
Off the everyday labor
From the mules in the field to
The cattle in the stable
This is how he kept food on his table
(maxin')
You would have thought he was disabled
By the way he be relaxing
Acting like Mr magnificent
But the animals was
Thinkin' somethin' different
The sentiment was tension in the barnyard
Throughout the years they had
Been through mad drama
With the farmer, word is bond, god
And they all came to one conclusion
They argued there was no way
They'd ever be free if it was up to humans
Therefore the only course left was
Revolution which was understandable
And since the pigs promised to lead it
In the interest of all the animals
They planned a full attack
Under the leadership of Hannibal
The fattest pig in the pack
The next morning on the farm
Everything was calm just before dawn
But before long the sun got so hot it
Made the farm seem electric now check it
This is when that shit got hectic
Directed by Hannibal, the animals attacked
Old Sam was in a state of shock
He fell up on his back and dropped his rifle
Reachin' in vain
Each and every creature from the
Field at his throat
Screamin' "Kill, feel the pain!"

This is the animal in man
This is the animal in you
This is the animal in man coming true
This is the animal in man
This is the animal in you
This is the animal in man coming true

After they ran the farmer off the farm
The pigs went 'round and called
A meeting in the barn
Hannibal spoke for several hours
But when he talked about his plans for power
That's when the conversation turned sour
He issued an official ordinance to set
If you not a pig from this
Day forth then you subordinate
That's when the horses went buckwild
One of them shouted out
"You fraudulent pigs
We know your fucking style!"
Hannibal's face was flushed and pale
All the animals eyes full
Of disgust and betrayal
He fell the same way Sam fell
They took his tongue out of his mouth
And cut his body up for sale, for real
You better listen while you can
Its a very thin line between animal and man
When Hannibal crossed the line they
All took a stand what would you have done?

This is the animal in man

This is the animal in man
This is the animal in you
This is the animal in man coming true
This is the animal in man
This is the animal in you
This is the animal in man coming true

This is the animal in man
This is the animal in you
This is the animal in man coming true
This is the animal in man
This is the animal in you
This is the animal in man coming true

Remember
