(Spoken:)
Come
Come on. although ya try
to discredit, ya still never
edit the needle.
I'll thread it,
radically poetic
Standin' with the fury that
they had in '66.
and like E double,
I'm mad. still knee deep
in the system's shit.
Hoover, he was a body
remover. I'll give ya
a dose. but it can never
come close to the rage
built up inside of me.
Fist in the air,
in the land of hypocrisy.
movements come
and movements go.
Leaders speak,
movements cease.
when their heads
are flown.
Cause all these punks
got bullets in their heads.
departments of police,
of the judges, of the Feds.
Networks at work,
keepin' people calm'.
you know they went after
king when he spoke
out on Vietnam.
He turned the power
to the have nots
and then came the
shot.
yeah!
Yeah, back in this
wit' poetry, my mind I flex.
flip like Wilson,
vocals never lackin'
dat finesse.
Whadda I got to, whadda I
got to do to wake you up.
to shake you up,
to break the structure up.
'Cause blood still flows
in the gutter.
I'm like takin' photos.
mad boy kicks
open the shutter.
Set the groove. then stick
and move like I was
cassius. rep the stutter
step. then bomb a left
upon the fascists. yeah!
The several federal
men who pulled schemes
on the dream and put it
to an end.
Ya better beware
of retribution with
mind war.
20 20 visions and murals
with metaphors.
Networks at work,
keepin' people calm.
ya know they murdered X.
and tried to
blame it on Islam.
He turned the power
to the have nots
and then came the
shot.
Uggh!
what was the price
on his head?
what was the price
on his head?
I think I heard a shot
I think I heard a shot
I think I heard a shot
I think I heard a shot
I think I heard a shot
I think I heard,
I think I heard a shot.
He may be a real
contender for this position
should he abandon his
supposed obediance to
white liberal doctrine
Of non violence and
embrace black
nationalism
Through counter
intelligence. it should be
possible to pinpoint
potential trouble makers
and neutralize them.
Neutralize them.
neutralize them.
Wake up!
wake up!
wake up!
wake up!
Wake up!
wake up!
wake up!
wake up!
How long?
not long,
cause what you reap
is what you sow

So happy to have discovered Lucky Voice. We'd never tried karaoke before, but this is so much fun! So many great songs and so easy to use. Love it!
