Dead prez - We Need a Revolution lyrics
[Dead prez - We Need a Revolution lyrics]
I'm tired i'm tired
I'm tired of struggling, dog
I'm tired of struggling, dog
The system ain't gon' change
Unless we make it change
The White House is the rock house
Uncle Sam is the motherfucking pusher man
What I gotta do to make sure ya understand?
Spit it on a beat by Timbaland?
What I gotta do? Kidnap Aaliyah?
Take her melody? Make it relevant?
Hold her harmony hostage
To these People Army verses
Stash the arms in the churches
Bombs in the purses
Just when you think it's calm on the surface
We bomb on the first
Uncle Toms gets nervous every verse
Revolutionary curse words
First come first serve
It ain't no lost love, freedom cost blood
That's word to the Mossberg, nigga
We need a revolution we need a revolution
The system ain't gon' change
Unless we make it change
We need a revolution we need a revolution
The system ain't gon' change black power!
RBG's, RBG's, RBG's - nigga this that RBG's!
Black power! The system ain't gon' change
Unless we make it change
Got a cure for AIDS and cancer
Wanna know? Come follow me now
Diabetes and sickle cell even mad
Cow - wanna know how?
I can stop these cops from killing
I can feed these hungry children
I can stop racism, a product of capitalism
I can unpack the prisons and turn
Religion back to we livin'
I can stop the Bloods from peelin' caps
And the Crips from peelin' back
And get your cousin off crack
I can stop the war, that's in the black hood
Get the money right back to
The poor for sure and
If you with me nigga, let me know
Let's go, if ya really wanna know
(I wanna know) we need a real solution
Motherfuck they constitution!
RBG's off in this thang they hip to the game
Gettin' off the chains
The system ain't gonna change
Unless we make it change
You are now listening to WRBG
The People's Radio
It's a takeover, not a makeover
I'm tired of struggling, dog
I'm tired of struggling, dog
The system ain't gon' change
Unless we make it change
The White House is the rock house
Uncle Sam is the motherfucking pusher man
What I gotta do to make sure ya understand?
Spit it on a beat by Timbaland?
What I gotta do? Kidnap Aaliyah?
Take her melody? Make it relevant?
Hold her harmony hostage
To these People Army verses
Stash the arms in the churches
Bombs in the purses
Just when you think it's calm on the surface
We bomb on the first
Uncle Toms gets nervous every verse
Revolutionary curse words
First come first serve
It ain't no lost love, freedom cost blood
That's word to the Mossberg, nigga
We need a revolution we need a revolution
The system ain't gon' change
Unless we make it change
We need a revolution we need a revolution
The system ain't gon' change black power!
RBG's, RBG's, RBG's - nigga this that RBG's!
Black power! The system ain't gon' change
Unless we make it change
