It's time

(Verse 1)

This one is for the people who read everyone of my new writings

you the people that keep me motivated to do this

everything I been through I put into this

so can yall do this

take a pledge with me right now

we will unite right now

we gonna shoot racism right down

it's time we turn on the light now

we gonna stand up and fight now

cuz our government's off their rocker

but it's really not a shocker

corporations have involved

people paid off

from city hall to the doctors

we need to rally as much people as we can

to unite as one blood in one skin

cuz we can only win

when we band together as one

cuz thn they cant beat none

of us

then they'd have to readjust

to a government we can trust

(Chorus)

i'm getting tired of living like this

the one's suppose to be helping me getting my mind inna twist

I think it's time I resist

the perpetual mendacity of politics

perpetual mendacity of politics

perpetual mendacity of politics

I think it's time I resist

(Verse 2)

it's time my people to take this hatred out our hearts

it's time we finally come together as one human race

cuz the problems you gonna face

can be retraced

back to a few masons

who created a new nation to keep the wealth in the hands of few

and that don't include me or you

it's the 1% verses us

it don't matter what religion you practice

or the color of your skin

or your sexual preference

 we all need each other

did you ever wonder

the impact of a nation truly standing under

one nation under God

but capitalism got us worshiping a facade

(Chorus)

i'm getting tired of living like this

the one's suppose to be helping me getting my mind inna twist

I think it's time I resist

the perpetual mendacity of politics

perpetual mendacity of politics

perpetual mendacity of politics

I think it's time I resist

(Verse 3)

we all gonna break these chains

and create a world where peace remains

reject the government for keeping our minds detained

cuz one good thing about when it rains

these tears don't have to be explained

cuz I cry a lot for my people (people)

cuz in some minds we are not equal

my words circulating through your brain is lethal

cuz it force you to look within in wonderment

thinking bout how you're getting fucked by your government

then you notice my words are relevant

that's when you have to make a chose

sit quiet or use your God given voice

it's time my people rejoice

This is so great! I especially consider today an absolutely great day to time with my poem reading. Or more accurately, song reading. I'm very sick of the rich oppressing the poor and then calling it "class warfare" when we fight back. We cannot let this stand.

We are legion!
