Sticky, sticky, sticky don't get caught by surprise
Tricky, tricky, tricky keep your eyes open wide
Hold on, hold on gotta be strong to survive
The clouds shall open and jah jah shall provide
Can't beat their slogans can't bring on them speech
Them black water soldiers want fe march through your streets, oh
T.V. and internet program your sleep and
Them loot up and shoot up and then them deceive
Look away, look away
Pay the price, pay the price
We get stronger now, they can't push us
Them huff and them puff but we gon' blow them down
Revelations, revelations
Blood for oil, blood for food, blood for money
Bubble pop, trickle down voodoo economics
Most of them profits go to fill them greedy pockets
Too big to fail who's paying for them bombs and them rockets?
Now it's time for the hungry to eat up
Now it's time for the suffrah to free up
Each one, teach one, no time to sleep
It's the weepin' and wailin' and gnashing of teeth
Look away, look away
Pay the price, pay the price
We get stronger now, they can't push us
Them huff and them puff but we gon' blow them down
Revelations, revelations
Can't kill my prophet for a profit
Not for an ounce of gold will I sell my soul
If there's a will there's a way
When the lights are shining, don't look away, no look away
Never run, never run
No bite your toungue, no bite your tongue
No beg, them steal for a crumb
Then why want fe rule you with a gun?
Look away, look away
Pay the price, pay the price
We get stronger now, they can't push us
Them huff and them puff but we gon' blow them down
Revelations, revelations
