Lyrics

This message is transmitted at the request of the President of the United States of America and the Office of Homeland Security In compliance with the United Nations, the President of the United States has declared Martial Law Curfew is now in place, return to your homes Any congregating of two or more people outside of your homes will result in you being arrested on sight Anyone possessing a firearm or any item or instrument that can be used as a weapon Will be deemed an enemy of the state and will be arrested on sight UN peacekeeping garrisons have severed all data transmissions and telephone communications for National Security Any violation of Martial Law will result in immediate arrest and trial for treason All traitors will be shot, America is now engaged in Civil War It's already started, maybe too late to stop It's already on, they shooting the cops They pushing the line, racism is high The country's divided, you know the fuck why The press of the pull, and push of the truth The public is dumb, delusional youth Our leaders are evil, lie after lie The public is armed, and ready to die (ready to die) (Civil War) What side you on when the shit pops off Black or white, wrong or right? (Civil War) Rich or poor, urban war Shit might just jump off tonight (Civil War) What side you on when the shit pops off Black or white, wrong or right? (Civil War) This shit is true Coming soon to a town near you They don't care about nothing, just personal gain These politicians wouldn't mind a war, motherfuck your pain Cops are killing people and never do time In the hood we killing each other like that ain't no crime I'm feeling the tension, don't tell me you don't These fools will get us all killed, don't tell me they won't There's guns on the streets, it's already too late The net's overloaded with pure racial hate Depressed, just instigate, they love a fight Don't give a fuck about who gets hurt just news that night They try and twist the problem like it's white and black But if you come to shoot me, yo I'm shooting back (I'm shootin' back) (Civil War) What side you on when the shit pops off Black or white, wrong or right? (Civil War) Rich or poor, urban war Shit might just jump off tonight (Civil War) What side you on when the shit pops off Black or white, wrong or right? (Civil War) This shit is true Coming soon to a town near you (Civil War) What side you on when the shit pops off Black or white, wrong or right? (Civil War) Rich or poor, urban war Shit might just jump off tonight (Civil war) What side you on when the shit pops off Black or white, wrong or right? (Civil war) This shit is true Coming soon to a town near you
