When the revolution come

What side will you be on?

When the revolution come

What side will you be on?

I'm on that wave, I'm on that wave

I'm on that wave, I'm on that wave

I'm on that wave, I'm on that wave

I'm on that wave, I'm on that wave

When the revolution come

A cop told me, for a **** like you

Nothing better than a jail

Then it made sense 'cause his idea of heaven is my hell

And fuck a politician 'cause the devil is the president as well

That's when these bars start marching through my dreams

Like Martin Luther King writing letters in his cell

Welcome to the belly of the beast

Welcome to the gutter where peanut butter jelly is a feast

And all we ever have is each other

I told you Machavelli was a priest

He told me keep my head up

I listened to his sermons everyday

I meditate on everything he preach

So when I get fed up

It'll send a **** into peace

'Till you bury me a G up in the streets

Let me continue

Let me just talk to the rebel within you

If the government pay for every inmate

And the judge own a stake in the penitentiary

Where the hell he gon' send you

Guilty or not, I just wanna build me a spot

Far from the drama for my family and my mama

If I stay around here, I'ma kill me a cop

When the revolution come

What side will you be on?

When the revolution come

What side will you be on?

I'm on that wave, I'm on that wave

I'm on that wave, I'm on that wave

I'm on that wave, I'm on that wave

I'm on that wave, I'm on that wave

When the revolution come

Rambunctious reckless rebels reverse and revenge

Reminded revelations recycle to reveal a tragic end

Erase empathy

Emotionless energy enslaved

Entitled envious enemies ready to engage

Vigilant, violence and furnace filled volumes

Vaccinated visionaries vocal your visions at various volumes

Offend the offenders, oppressors and objectors

Open mind, outsource, out-stand, outshine, outlast

They're outlandish at first

Lingering lobbyist listing logistics

Levitating laws, limiting living

Laugh long, laugh loud

Lucifer is listening

Unaware, undecided, unwavering united

When the revolution come

They let you get a little money

No you can afford to buy new shit

Then you turned on us

That's how the empire do shit

Gave you a little coin

Now you selling your soul 'cause you ain't wanna lose it

When they tired of your ass

They gon' take that fake upper class pass

And show you where the noose is

Haha, now I'm loving it

Another traitor double-crossed by the government

The original reptile

You a stepchild, you could never be one of them, pysch

Another bites the dust, that's the price of trust

It costs you twice as much

Now who's gon' ride the bus to come fight with us

When the revolution come

What side will you be on?

When the revolution come

What side will you be on?

I'm on that wave, I'm on that wave

I'm on that wave, I'm on that wave

I'm on that wave, I'm on that wave

I'm on that wave, I'm on that wave

When the revolution come
