Take The Power Back - Demo

Lyrics

Bring that shit in
 Huh
 Check it out
 In the right light, study becomes insight
 But the system that dissed us teaches us to read and write
 So-called facts are fraud
 They want you to allege and pledge and
 Bow down into their God
 Lost the culture or the culture lost
 Spun our minds and through time
 Ignorance has taken over
 Yo, we gotta take the power back
 Bam, here's the plan, motherfuck Uncle Sam
 Step back, I know who I am
 Raise up your ear, I'll drop the style and clear
 It's the beats and the lyrics they fear
 The rage is relentless
 We need a movement with a quickness
 You are the witness of change and to counteract
 We gotta take the power back
 Yeah, take the power back
 Come on, come on
 We gotta take the power back
 The present curriculum, I put my fist in 'em
 Eurocentric, every last one of 'em
 See right through the red, white and blue disguise
 With lecture I puncture the structure of lies
 Installed in our minds and attempting to hold us back
 We've got to take it back
 Holes in our spirit causin' tears and fears
 One-sided stories for years and years and years
 I'm inferior? Who's inferior?
 Yeah, you need to check the interior
 Of the system who cares about only one culture
 And that is why we gotta take the power back
 We gotta take the power back
 Come on, come on
 We gotta take the power back
 Ah yeah
 We came here to break this shit down
 Hell yeah man
 Aw shit
 Don't stop, you don't stop, so
 Don't stop, you don't stop, so
 Don't stop, you don't stop, so
 Don't stop, you don't stop, uh
 ♪
 Uh like this, uh
 Come on, uh! Yeah
 Pump the beat, yo, hey!
 Uh
 The teacher stands in front of the class
 But the lesson plan he can't recall
 The students' eyes don't perceive the lies
 Bouncing off every fucking wall
 His composure is well kept
 I guess he fears playing the fool
 The complacent students sit and listen to that bullshit
 That he'd learned in school
 What about that?
 The system is overwhacked
 In the classroom, forced to go back
 I can't see, what they're running from
 No regrets, the teacher's 'sposed to teach my point!
 Come back and see it all change
 Back for time, wanna see the rearranging
 Fucked up for taking the wheel with tact
 Come one, we gotta take the power back
 We gotta take the power back
 Come on, come on
 We gotta take the power back
 ♪
 No more lies
 No more lies
 No more lies
 No more lies
 No more lies
 No more lies
 No more lies
 No more lies
 Uh, come on
 Take it back y'all
 Take it back, take it back, take it back y'all, c'mon
 Take it back y'all
 Take it back, take it back, take it back y'all, c'mon
 Uh
 Yeah
