They see the drugs and the guns and the slums
With the blood on the floor with they tears in they eyes

They putting all of my partners in front of Your Honors
My brothers and sisters
Be honest

The country perplexes me
Minorities born in inequity
Upbringing unequal society threatens me
Why? for fulfilling my destiny
Resources are limited
Especially for those with a felony
I can't accept what this idiot telling me
Gotta have soul to know the recipe (AH)
The system is flawed
If we're not involved in reform then the issues that plague us will never be solved
I'm sick of it all
This one's for the dawgs
United we stand divided we fall
Hard to believe that my people are free
When all of the niggas I know, they all stuck behind bars
This one's for the dawgs
Man, this ain't freedom, boy this is hell
We living in boxes fathers stuck in the cell
Its screwed I'm scrooged ain't saved by the bell
Just open your eyes it ain't hard to tell
They don't want us free
They want us to fail
But that is why we strive for transcendence
We don't want limits, we want independence
This passion for privilege I have is relentless
Let my people go
Or you'll feel my vengeance
I revved up my engine
It's time to go
Let's get to the mission
Wake up see the vision
Dawg they don' murdered every leader that don lead us
Starving and ain't no body fed us
In case you wonder why my people fed up
Cuz your prez, he in the office with his legs up
We gotta WAKE UP

We gotta WAKE UP
Everything ain't really what it seems
We the people gotta be a team
Plot against the presidential schemes
WAKE UP
Everybody running from the truth
Every time they see us want to shoot
Man, its blood in the streets and the roots
Awe man WAKE UP

Everything ain't really what it seems
WAKE UP
We the people gotta be a team
WAKE UP
Everybody running from the truth
Every time they see us want to shoot
Man, its blood in the streets and the roots
Awe man, WAKE UP
