Capital-X - Revolutionary lyrics

[Intro Capital-X Talking] If you don't stand with me, you stand against me See I place the blame for all our social ills that have caused Discomfort and unhappiness Squarely on the shoulders of those that are responsible: the people That are in control I say It's time for a people's revolution, led by the politically conscious... [Capital-X] I'm tired of the hypocrisy and the mockery of justice Tired of seeing our children, carried off in prison buses I'm tired of the brutality and all the corruption They arrest us nothing, I'm ready to do something The prison industry, and the corporate hustle Need to be dismantled as we continue to struggle Open up your eyes, stop living in a bubble The country you'd die for, is real quick to f** you I reach out to touch you, with revolutionary sounds When I die I'll leave more than sad songs, and a hump in the ground I want to leave a world liberated, free from oppression Free from repression, wars and racism I'll put a bullet in ya brain, if it'll make a difference In dismantling colonialists and imperialism I wanna see every politician, rotting in prison That's not a mission statement, that's my f**ing mission [Chorus] [Call and response] Say I Am...I Am, A Revolutionary...A Revolutionary I Am...I Am, A Revolutionary...A Revolutionary Say I Am...I Am, A Revolutionary...A Revolutionary I Am...I Am, A Revolutionary...A Revolutionary [Verse 2] The government has us, working to d**h, or dieing in cages f** the American dream, no one sees wealth earning wages f** Kennedy's speech trying to make us all complacent We went from chattel slavery, to economical enslavement They take our rights to bare arms, leaving us all hopeless Cause unarmed people are slaves, at any given moment Our system is broken, I speak for the unspoken For every grieving mother, and d**h penalty opponent It's genocide and slaughter, of our sons and daughters Guns are in order, guerrilla's without borders I'm old school, so f** a new world order What I spit will bless your kids just like holy water I stand against our oppressors, with a mic and a shank Cause I'd rather die free, than have a dime in the bank f** a Benz f** a Bentley f** an MTV crib I'm tired of living, how they tell me to live [Chorus] [Verse 3] They send hundreds to their d**h, with enemy appointed attorney's Guilty or innocent, they show you no mercy It's constitutional, if you're convicted by jury You think it's justice, till your first born's on the gurney Thousands executed, and they'll be thousands more Those being executed, Brown or poor I'm declaring war, on the fascist ba*tards It's prisoner against guard, like it was slave against master Being captured, is not an option Political imprisonment, I won't be silenced I'm a product of my environment, so I'll go out violent Sparking up prison riots from Corrocan to Elmira For the juvenile lifers, born to be lifeless Tell me how much more can one be Christ like The lethal injection, modern day crucifixion What I spit will have them seeking a murder conviction [Chorus]
