Woop, woop, that's the sound of da beast |
[00:20.42] |
|
[00:31.04] |
Yes, indeed |
[00:31.54] |
Stand clear, don' man a talk, you can't stand where I stand |
[00:34.47] |
You can't walk where I walk, watch out, we run New York |
[00:38.03] |
Police man come, we bust him out the park |
[00:40.88] |
I know this for a fact, you don't like how I act |
[00:43.19] |
You claim I'm sellin' crack but you be doin' that |
[00:45.68] |
I'd rather say "See ya" 'cause I would never be ya |
[00:48.30] |
Be a officer? You wicked overseer |
[00:50.74] |
Ya hotshot, wanna get props and be a saviour |
[00:53.30] |
First show a little respect, change your behavior |
[00:55.79] |
Change your attitude, change your plan |
[00:58.35] |
There could never really be justice on stolen land |
[01:01.39] |
Are you really for peace and equality? Or when my car is hooked up |
[01:04.69] |
You know you wanna follow me, your laws are minimal |
[01:07.99] |
'Cause you won't even think about lookin' at the real criminal |
[01:10.43] |
|
[01:12.16] |
This has got to cease |
[01:13.65] |
'Cause we be getting hyped to the sound of da police |
[01:16.27] |
Woop, woop, that's the sound of da police |
[01:17.90] |
Woop, woop, that's the sound of da beast |
[01:21.14] |
Woop, woop, that's the sound of da police |
[01:23.70] |
Woop, woop, that's the sound of da beast |
[01:26.20] |
Now, here's a likkle truth open up your eye |
[01:28.63] |
While you're checking out the boom box, check the exercise |
[01:30.56] |
Take the word "Overseer," like a sample |
[01:33.62] |
Repeat it very quickly in a crew for example |
[01:35.59] |
Overseer, overseer, overseer, overseer |
[01:40.02] |
Officer, Officer, Officer, Officer, yeah, officer from overseer |
[01:42.45] |
|
[01:44.08] |
You need a little clarity? Check the similarity |
[01:46.82] |
The overseer rode around the plantation |
[01:48.01] |
The officer is off patroling all the nation |
[01:51.75] |
The overseer couldn't stop you what you're doing |
[01:53.97] |
The officer will pull you over just when he's pursuing |
[01:56.84] |
The overseer had the right to get ill |
[01:59.09] |
And if you fought back, the overseer had the right to kill |
[02:01.83] |
The officer has the right to arrest |
[02:03.95] |
And if you fight back they put a hole in your chest |
[02:06.70] |
Woop, they both ride horses |
[02:09.01] |
After 400 years, I've got no choices |
[02:10.50] |
The police them have a little gun |
[02:14.06] |
So when I'm on the streets, I walk around with a bigger one |
[02:17.31] |
Woop, woop, I hear it all day |
[02:19.30] |
Just so they can run the light and be upon their way |
[02:21.80] |
|
[02:23.17] |
Yes, indeed |
[02:25.72] |
Yes, indeed |
[02:28.03] |
Yes, indeed |
[02:30.59] |
Yes, indeed |
[02:32.15] |

[02:44.38] |

[03:01.76] |
Him want a salary, him want it |
[03:04.38] |
