Could we be in heaven, no, that ain't the lesson

Bein' here on earth where we here to get to testin', boy

Ain't no restin', boy, they get to steppin', boy

We come 'round guessing boy, and they arrest them boys

Yeah, But I beg the question, will I go to jail when I try to take my stand against them?

Will I get shot down, murdered, and slept on?

They feel like they've won, but you haven't, oh, but you haven't!

I said I beg the question, will I go to jail, when I try to take my stand against them?

Will I get shot down, and murdered, and slept on?

They feel like they've won, uh but you haven't, oh, but you haven't!

Lookin' up at all the people, watchin' all these things unfold

Passersby, they wonder why THE SPACEMAN'S story is untold

It's for a cause, you take a pause, and ask if you would do it too

Standin' up to get knocked down, you've jabbed me with your butcher tool

Indoctrinating all those people that fill up your pocket line

Whip up on our backs, feel like it's Egypt when we step outside

Money on our minds, cause it can buy us just a little time

And you're living in denial, he's comin' back, he'll take your life

Could we be in heaven, no, that ain't the lesson

Bein' here on earth where we here to get to testin', boy

Ain't no restin', boy, they get to steppin', boy

We come 'round guessing boy, and they arrest them boys

Yeah, But I beg the question, will I go to jail when I try to take my stand against them?

Will I get shot down, murdered, and slept on?

They feel like they've won, but you haven't, oh, but you haven't!

I said I beg the question, will I go to jail, when I try to take my stand against them?

Will I get shot down, and murdered, and slept on?

They feel like they've won, uh but you haven't, oh, but you haven't!

Ah!
