Wake Up

Letra
Come on

Come on, although you try to discredit

You'll still never edit

The needle, I'll thread it

Radically poetic

Standing with the fury that they had in '66

And like E-Double, I'm mad

Still knee-deep in the system's s**t

Hoover, he was a body remover

I'll give you a dose

But it will never come close

To the rage built up inside of me

Fist in the air, in the land of hypocricy

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 (what?) the judges (what?) the feds

Networks at work, keeping 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

Yeah

Yeah, back in this

With poetry, my mind I flex

Flip like Wilson, vocals never lacking that finesse

Who I got to, who I got to do to wake you up?

To shake you up, to break the structure up

'Cause blood still flows in the gutter

I'm like taking photos

Mad boy kicks open the shutter

Set the groove

Then stick and move like I was Cassius

Rep the stutter step and left a bomb upon the fascists

Yeah, the several federal man

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 metaphors

Networks at work keeping 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

What was the price on his head?

What was the price on his head?

I think I heard a shot

I think I heard a shot

I think I heard a shot

I think I heard a shot

I think I heard a shot

I think I heard, I think I heard a shot

Wake up

Wake up

Wake up

Wake up

Wake up

Wake up

Wake up

Wake up

How long? Not long, 'cause what you reap is what you sow
