[Verse 1]
Let's see if our nation's flag is really on the moon
Let's take a trip just to see if what they say is true
Say we need change, somebody make it soon
Imagine my reaction they look in my face and say it's you
Hand's dirty I'm guilty of sinning
I know I'm wrong so I pray to the lord I'm forgiven
Black foreign rolling through the city
RIP Jeff I got all my brothers rolling with me
I don't trust nobody else with them
When everybody is against them I'm helping em
Let's build a new race of black men who educate themselves
Regulate themselves and dedicate themselves
Cause higher ups say they better hate themselves
Forever safe in jail we'll never make them tell
This is a new revolution
Colored people all around the world we're recruiting
Pray our kids gon be alright, they gon be alright, they gon be alright promise we won't get stupid
I say this because I believe that shhh
But homie open a book up and read that shhh
With all that's going on around you know it's hard to see that shhh
But oxygen's enough for you so breathe that shhh
Man for real one more thing, before you grab that steel
Think how long it took for me to grab that deal and then you could
[Hook]
Tell me who's running this world
Tell me who, Tell me who
Tell me who's running this world
Tell me who's running this world
Tell me who's running this world
Tell me who's running this world
Tell me who, Tell me who
Tell me who's running this world
Tell me who's running this world
Tell me who's running this world
[Verse 2]
I'm representing for the youngin who don't got much to believe in
Listening close to the words that I'm speaking
He's become accustomed to hanging out on the weekend
Black American's with no culture now I'm preaching
Now I'm teaching but they claim that were indecent
Unfaithful, with no customs, how the hell they expect us to stop reaching?
Let's make our own language
They gon teach police how we'll decieve them
How we'll rise up against the man and impeach him
Tell us we ain't smart enough to run our own households
Keep saying that we'll keep running the streets then
I'm tired of it we keep taking the beating
From those who make money while sleeping
And tax money the governments keeping
Like I don't need that 80 dollars
I know I hear it, but you don't that baby holler
Our women have the highest rate of abortion
Highest grades in these colleges, highest rate of extortion
Some voices fail to report them, no it ain't their fault
It's the fans who support them
So who's wrong? Who's right?
Who's gon stop the bs, stand up and fight?
It's messed up man our teens are the mothers now
Multi-colored kids trying to make their mothers proud
[Hook]
Tell me who's running this world
Tell me who, Tell me who
Tell me who's running this world
Tell me who's running this world
Tell me who's running this world
Tell me who's running this world
Tell me who, Tell me who
Tell me who's running this world
Tell me who's running this world
Tell me who's running this world
