Here we go Everybody rise up (Now is the B Turn) People checkin out the time (Get ready, get ready) Everybody [VERSE 1: Laquan] Third eye shines like a force of light Tongue used as a tool to provide a Godly light Most are lost and blinded by vanity Africa's home and the birth of humanity How could a nation grow without its roots For the land is the tree and we're the fruit Awareness of black pride is kept aside It's time the mentally dead revise alive Pyramids prove we were first in existence Change our conditions and rise with persistance Position is fightening, words are enlightening For those who can't see the light of G-o-d Black is a state of mind, it's more than a skin color The skin color doesn't make you a true brother It's been said, return of the dead will take place For that time is now cause now is the B Turn [Chorus] Everybody rise up (Now is the B Turn) People checkin out the time (Get ready, get ready) Everybody rise up Everybody [VERSE 2: Laquan] Build up, set the field up, truth is vital A false statement's never made my recital Raise your vibrations and raise the vibrations of others In God's sight we're all brothers Pyramids to projects, subject to d**h State of mind and your brother is all we have left Grow into new growth or let your soul float In the fire of a false desire Mind is important, flesh is a vehicle
God is most powerful, man is a miracle Under the prayer that was spoken by Moses How do I know this? The Bible has told us Watch the books you read cause some books deceive An evil writer may attempt to mislead The sand of my homeland is what created man Seek knowledge and learn For now it's the B Turn [Chorus] Everybody rise up (Now is the B Turn) People checkin out the time (Get ready, get ready) Everybody rise up (You been waitin for the B Turn) Everybody (Here we go) [VERSE 3: Laquan] I am God's child, called unto destiny For He has blessed me though some think less of me God is within you, so let your heart guide God in the sky? That's all a big lie Freedom is not free, so how can I be free? Smoke screen clouds your eyes so you can't see Babylon has fallen, our time has come From the womb to the tomb as the young begin to bloom Some pump their fist and pose to be down with this Tackle the untruth, regroup and teach the youth Man can k** as well as heal As I wake the blind with words of steel Brothers and sisters, rise and become (try) Become number one (cope) Seek knowledge and learn (hope) Now's the B Turn [Chorus repeated w/variations until fade] Everybody rise up (Now is the B Turn) People checkin out the time (You been waitin for the B Turn) Everybody rise up (Now is the B Turn) Everybody (You been waitin for the B Turn)
