Fleein' the scene again with blood on my cortez

Might, be lookin' at murder my team can't afford this

Just another predicament, unexpected i'm inflicted with

But this time was different, completely sober not liquor bent

It seems my callin's kickin' in, no longer a citizen

Labeled street terrorists by terrorists committin' bigger sins

Killin' for the dividends and pillagin' millions of men

While we just tryin' ta keep respect within the streets we livin' in

Rebellious attitude with no gratitude for america

Where uncle sams plan for the poor is war or a pair of cuffs

This country doesn't care for us, time to become aware and trust

Nothin' that's presented by government sponsered media

Spendin' more money on prisons and wars than on schools

And makin' up their own rules as they play us for fools

Strippin' our weapons and tools, that could be used to fight back

Against tyrannical rule, when civil rights been hijacked

It's like that, you disagree? explain this to me

Natives were raped and robbed but ain't taught in school history

They skip over the misery if it benifits their propaganda

Hope i live to see the day all righteous souls unite and stand up

Strapped up takin' shots at cops if that's what's needed

Kill a few before my life is lost and i've succeeded

In helpin' to overthrow, a system out of control

It's just a matter of time before the battle unfolds

[Chorus:]

It's just a matter of time, what ya gonna do?

Don't be stagnent, gather your mind before they come for you

Be prepared to battle for freedom, that's what it's comin' to

Refuse to be their cattle let's bleed 'em, then start with somethin' new

You wanna ride? i got that extra gun for you

Don't be scared to die fightin' for somethin' true

See thru their wicked agenda, make moves to remove the center

Of operations they're stagin', cagin' us up for legal tender

They slap our face in the gang files, no case when we face trial

Convincin' the public we're nothin' but criminal waste piles

That need to be disposed or enclosed with an urgency

A state of emergency i declare til they murder me

You really think they plottin' on your death? homie certainly

Just listen to the words i speak, you think that they ain't heard of me

A northern cali rebel pullin' sheets back

Lookin at police like slaughtered cattle on a meat rack

Pre-packed, die piggy die little piggy die die

Tell them devils that you workin' for it's eye for an eye

Took the life of my brother, for that i ride like few other

Plant a mole in my circle, that's a dead undercover

Ya'll been pickin' us off for years, keepin our thoughts impaired

Creatin' laws from fear, keepin us locked on tiers

And it doesn't cost to care but money stay talkin' where

Democracy is yet to treat the masses impoverished fair

[Chorus]

Blatantly i'll make ya see this world for it is

Many turn a blind eye by shootin' smack or poppin thizz

While they overstockin' pigs pre-maturely cockin' sigs

For the slightest disturbance of the peace, they sockin' kids

In the face, police catchin' no case

But let a lil' homie regulate and prisons embrace

Considered waste by the upper class, lock us up then double tax

Every extra dime we make to pay for our troubled past

That they helped to create, where negatives illuminate

Rewarded if you choose to hate, rebel promised a gruesome fate

You poor they look at you as prey, use you up then do away

With your body and make your family pay to let your ruins decay

So who's to say the news relays any ounce of truth

When they're so focused on our death and every breath denouncin' youth

It's an obvious plan to distract us from what's at hand

As they invade another land we're watchin' makin' the band, damn?

[Chorus]
