Şarkı sözleri

As a teen I was a link between
doc martens and doctor Martin Luther King Junior
I had a provocative future
I had a provocative future
 leaving bodies in sutures
the knife in your pocket to the Glock or the Ruger
molotov, Kalashnikov, I thought we oughta be shooters
 
the cops would piss me off how they would not even do shit
but to the cadre, who were part of the movement
the fighting, I saw the slaughter was futile
to survive it, you know you gotta be brutal
excitement, it taught me how to be ruthless
 it coincided with pride that you can find in this music
 Youth it wasn't easy, wouldn't change it for nothing
 the painful mistakes and tough repercussions
Despite self destruction we did something of substance
 Killing your sisters and brothers is counter productive
Anybody hear about the revolution
 Concrete Jungles and institutions
Ruthless leaders owe us restitution
40 acres and retribution, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
The revolution yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Retribution
Imagine Fred Hampton in a Fred Perry
Slam Dancing, revolutionary
Mindset behind the drive to survive
By 1995 I'd left the violence behind
I'd strive to thrive by applying my mind
To rhythm and rhyme that was designed to define
contradictions and conditions of our position in time
The mission remains, the approach is refined
As vultures encroach on the culture to dine
And hopelessness gropes at our throats and our spines
Law enforcement endorses torture and crime
And politicians in the system want to force us to die
I have African peers who are passionate leaders
Biographical scripts written for actors in theaters
In Portland Oregon since I've been gone rapping for years
Anybody hear about the revolution
 Concrete Jungles and institutions
Ruthless leaders owe us restitution
40 acres and retribution, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
The revolution yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Retribution
