i was born to two college students

hella student loans

and even then

they could tell i didn't quite belong

and now my microphone got hella continents to roam

and some oceans when i'm focused

really in my zone

i'm really getting grown

i might beat the statistics

twenty right now

twenty-nine is on my wish list

trying to leave an imprint with some thickness

so the archaeologists gotta dig it up

just to dig it

equipped with bob dillon's spirit

vision of montamussa

a staple in my city like washington

no abdullah's

you digging in that coolers

so that alcohol can fool ya

into thinking you got a universal sense of humor

and like bilous

i got the bear necessities

fruit snacks

and hella trees is what i need for relief

'cause even pussy got its complications

and i ain't got the patience

and my statements seem to get me into trouble

the letter after v

i'm just like you except i'm double

and that's cool

i give you something new you can work up to

ladies succumb to

the rupee bandwagon just to stand up on the band's bus

ankle grabbing damage

good to be two ex end it

old

the hebrew to the hard working negro

the underground people get lost in dimensions

trying to figure out what we know

suicide is therapy but what i need relief for

this shit here

it make me cut your head off

go to war with them niggas

get your lid off

we don't need no drums

boy

those things thump

brothers and sisters

i want to see your hands up right now

let me see you

see your hands

i want everybody to make up some noise

i want to hear some revolutions out there fellas

i want to hear a little revolution

brothers and sisters

the time has come

for each and every one of you to decide

whether you are going to be the problem

or that you are going to be the solution

that's right

you must choose brothers

you must choose

it takes five seconds

five seconds a decision

five seconds to realize your purpose here on this planet

it takes five seconds to realize that it's time to move

it's time to get down with it

brothers

it's time to testify

i want to know

are you ready to testify?

are you ready?

are you?
