Pharoahe Monch - Book Of Judges lyrics

(Verse 1:) America the ugly raped my mother Deceived my sister separated my brother Murdered my children hung my father Now they want me to rock the vote the f**s why bother? Seen them commercials for the army of whatever Picture me giving a damn, I said never! My minds too short my brain's too clever My spine is too strong every line pulls your lever Limitless rhymes for the indigenous the remedy PLAT! Getting' my money like the Kennedy's Flip it! Put em' in stocks collect anemities Rock, roll behold my epiphanies and Read em' and weep, heat I beat em' to sleep Mislead em' until we even-steven defeat em' with freedom of speech And we let them know that I'm the motherf**in' fire-starter Piss on the constitution and burn the Magna Carta (Chorus:) All I know is what I feel Deceive my eyes and distort what's real Only truth will set you free I rather die on my feet than delivery my knees (Verse 2:) We dying over black gold they harvesting in the sand Presidents living marvelous, they starving in Sudan It's obvious we walk a blind path to oblivion The book of judges read the scriptures unlike Gideon Light my fire, start my engine When Pharaohe becomes Moses its medicine for who listens A veteran with the might bringing with prophecy to fruition Motivation verses on an adverse condition Caught on the mainframe I see the maze man They watch you from the street light you and your main man The bar code around your neck same as your name brand You're lost in strange land no thoughts of a game plan (Chorus:) All I know is what I feel Deceive my eyes and distort what's real Only truth will set you free I rather die on my feet than delivery my knees (Outro:) Piss on the constitution, then burn the Magna Carta Piss on the constitution, then burn the Magna Carta Piss on the constitution, then burn the Magna Carta Piss on the constitution, then burn the Magna Carta Piss on the constitution, then burn the Magna Carta Piss on the constitution, then burn the Magna Carta Piss on the constitution, then burn the Magna Carta Piss on the constitution, then burn the Magna Carta (fade out)
