[00:00.000] 作曲 : Jon Connor
[00:25.44]Look where we headed, *****s want baby mamas instead of weddings
They holler "she crazy" - you knew that before you got her pregnant
[00:31.05]Visualize the dream of Malcolm and Martin opposite
[00:33.61]We all God's children, making the devil's adoption list
[00:35.95]Free will keep overriding our common sense
Born with a conscience, but over time we buildin' up a tolerance
[00:40.96]Immunity to scrutiny, that's just how the world turn
[00:43.61]And Alfred taught me some people just want to watch the world burn
[00:46.21]Ashes to ashes after flashes of decisions made
[00:48.78]The world disintegrates, as shallowness takes center stage
[00:51.33]As I pen this page, some would say that I'm a renegade
[00:53.49]Cleanin' out my closet, I'm just man enough to renovate
[00:56.11]Seduction or corruption'll have us all ****ed
[00:58.33]Before we all stuck, see the light before we awestruck
[01:01.03]Back to that baby mama, *****, here your little boy come
[01:03.70]Lifetime to build a future, only seconds to destroy one
[01:08.07][Hook Jon Connor]
[01:08.59]Rise - they say my message is a weapon
Say hello to Mr. AK47
Send me to the jury or the reverend
Cause I'm 'bout to spray this extra clip I left in
[01:16.69]So rise, mother****er, rise
[01:18.81]Oh, what's the point?
[01:19.46]You will die or probably commit suicide to this joint
[01:21.84]My *****, they say my message is a weapon
[01:24.24]Say hello to Mr. AK47
[01:27.19]Jon Connor]
[01:31.54]Before they close my casket, I want my words to reach to the masses
[01:34.61]Before they have me in shackles sayin' I didn't pay my taxes
[01:37.26]We laughing, but what's wack is that this shit could actually happen
[01:39.73]Shit is real life, the lights and the cameras just a distraction
[01:42.05]Spoon fed out the mob from the time we open our eyes
[01:44.71]We don't try to seek the truth, we more comfortable with the lies
[01:47.08]Like if I told you black was blue and you never knew all this time
Or 1+1 was really 3, you'd go out of your ****ing mind
[01:52.20]Kids is suicidal, homicidal, wanna be famous
[01:54.87]Hopin' that the video of the trial gon' go viral
[01:57.14]How we've spiralled as a generation, not enough answers
[02:00.25]Too many questions, I close my eyes and count my blessings
[02:02.64]I'm realistic about this life, shit, that's why I write shit
That make a ***** think twice and focus on the right shit
[02:07.57]When happiness ain't got a price, man, that shit is priceless
But it takes some folks they whole life to recognize this, so
[02:13.48][Hook]
[02:14.65][Talib Kweli]
[02:38.28]Violence begets violence, but killers respect the silence
[02:41.05]Not religious, but I still pray to God and respect the science
[02:43.58]We're deaf when the kids is crying, and stare when the TEKs is firing
[02:45.98]So we the endangered species, they'd rather protect the lions
[02:48.60]In the Matrix looking for Zion, dying by the gat
Is as American as the bacon that they're frying with the fat
[02:53.86]They lying, them *****s flat when they clappin' at 'em like blap
[02:56.41]Your opinion on the matter don't matter, matter of fact
[02:58.83]They be aiming it at our back cause we market it as a target
[03:01.59]Went from modern day prophets to martyrs dying for profit
[03:04.01]Went from body rockin' to molly popping
[03:05.77]*****s will probably wipe your heart
[03:07.23]Probably stop at the sight of this ***** rockin'
[03:09.10]At the supermarket shopping
[03:10.55]Trying to cop a shotgun with a debit card
[03:12.13]Listening to demagogues
[03:14.32]Who's representing Brooklyn like Decepticons
[03:15.77]This is the new Renaissance
[03:16.80]My accountant get 5% cause he respect the gods
[03:19.25][Hook]
