They say socialism’s bad and they don’t what it means
They say anarchism’s bad – but they have the wrong dream
- they have greed – and my dream’s to see greed rectified
we’re recruitin allies who see the truth and are inclined
- things stay the way they are – the way they are at this hour
cause we’re riddled wit ignorance – and this is their power
see we are – the people that are – thinking the system needs C P R
new life breathed in – cause it’s dead –
had enough of this one – need another instead
we need to re-think what we believe – and we need to go re-read
- The Lies my teacher told me – when he teach – he deceive
Read its bigger than Hip Hop – read that book and you’ll see
How rich old white men always profit when you buy industry CDs
From the Game to Little Wayne – the whole mainstream it’s plain
They sell stereotypes to kids – it goes right in their brain
On this we don’t have to be dependent – we can always back artists
That speak truth that’s independent - if you ya heard me
rap that’s evident cause I
miseducation – they hook that up (HOOK)
but the truth we can hook that up
hook that hook that hook that up
hook hook hook hook that up
Truth comes out my lips like it’s a folder – I put a cookie on my neck
To put a chip on my shoulder - - my 1st CD I tried to warn ya
That the world’s much bigger than what you eye’in on your corner
- I do my own research and I don’t follow many orders
not claimin ethnicity disrespects these man made borders
one of my many ways of not conformin – they teach us to be the same
but if we’re all the same then it’s borin - - misinformation is pourin
ads telling us we suck – but we can change our image
if we just spend a few bucks – but only sheep believe beauty
in skin deep is deep enough - - (true) beauty you find in your mind
by lovin yourself – helping others in need – you can feel real wealth
dedication to meditation – not medication is health
misinformation is stealth – aimed at sight of the masses
but if they watched They Live they might pick up the right glasses
and – (HOOK THAT UP) – (question all your classes) let’s…
- - The fact - that money - is the root - of all evil
- Means that capitalism could be the devil to the people
- They teach us – to look up – to the founding fathers
But I know they owned slaves and were native land robbers
Schools teach to the test – and pledge allegiance to the system
And they (hook that up) – need to reshape how we livin
- pledge allegiance to the earth and all life that’s arisen
so let’s (hook that up) – - - -I can see in these times
now people are known for ignorin war crimes
like in New York how they ignore horn honkin signs
- the rockafella drug laws is a blatant disgrace the way they (hook that up)
the ones flyin the drugs in they don’t never get chased (the way they – hook that up
- - I seen the face of kids sewin soccer balls out the states they (hook that up)
at seven days a week at nine cents a day
- the prices always rise – they try to pay the worker’s less
- a strange definition how they define success
- ya see my style precision – listen – I never be missin
a chance to keep questioning – cause I’m always stressin that we (hook that up)
OUTRO
revolution let’s hook that up
real education let’s hook that up
change doesn’t come from the top
the people always – hook that up
