Rock the Nation [Cd]

We livin' in a mean time and an aggressive time A painful time, a time where cynicism rots to the vine In a time where violence blocks the summer shine Lifetimes, go by in a flash In search for love, in search for cash Everybody want to be some fat tycoon Everybody want to be on a tropic honeymoon Nobody want to sing a little bit out of tune Or be the backbone of a rebel platoon It's too soon to step out of line You might get laughed at you might get fined But do you feel me when I say I feel pain everyday When I see the way my friends gotta slave And never get ahead of bills they gotta pay No way no way! Some make a living doing killing Colombian penicillin Some are willing to play the villain they just chillin' To pass the time, pass the information Or pass the wine Pass the buck or pass the baton But you can't pass the police or the pentagon The I.R.S. or the upper echelon I think it's time to make a move on the contradiction [Chorus] Bom-Bom, rock the nation Take over television and radio station Bom-Bom the truth shall come Give the corporation some complication! This is the dawning of our time I say it one more time To emphasize the meaning of my rhyme To rise above all the dirt and grime Add the right spice at the right time Fuck the constitution Are we part of the solution or are we part of the pollution Sittin' by and wonderin' why, Things ain't the way we like to find them to be, to be For you and for me the people over there and the ones in between Check our habitation are we a peace lovin' nation Peace lovin' nation I have a reasonable doubt I think I'll just spell it out There's no need to scream or to shout The N.R.A. just bought a man's soul Then he jumps up and shouts gun control The government says that killing's a sin Unless you kill a murderer with a lethal syringe So I ask again "are we peace lover's then" Some of them slang guns when they six years old Some of them end up in some six foot hole This whole damn place seems to, lost control So I raise my voice before I lose my soul [Chorus] This is the way I'll express my feelings Vibe revealed and revolved spinning on a record y'all Try to confiscate take what I communicate with It's ancient gift of the lip steady creating Activating passing vocal vibrations to the blind plus the seeing Human doesn't mean just being Be coming don't believe it just belife it Belongings or beloved rehearse it or recite it While shining drop your guns and move your tongues Battle motivation in no time lyrics come Sometimes fun others run their mouth or away My mind co beaming like an early sun ray One day we'll get the picture and all combine Less the talking bout mines is mine and become one mind Every piece of the puzzle has its place To build the piece of the puzzle called the human race Taking it long enough we crush the formal journalistic Dyslexic critters talk backwards to rap words I'm sure raising my hands with questions and demands Statements and a plan with a map of the land [Chorus]
