Takeover
Everybody put your hands up, hands up
All my people come and stand up, stand up
It's our time to take over
It's our time to take over
Everybody put your hands up, hands up
All my people come and stand up, stand up
It's our time to take over
It's our time to take over
Yeah, we gotta stand up
We gotta say what's real
We gotta yell into their face
How they make us feel
Let's make a move on racism
We can dead that shit
We go tell 'em it's our land
Don't forget that shit
We all human
Nobody deserves to be mistreated
So let's tell em
Lets open our mind
And fight for freedom
We got voices
So we gotta talk
To get our point across
Figure out some stuff then
Eventually we join the dots
I'm a young black man
And I've seen it all
We gotta come together now
So we can beat the law
They wanna beat us cause
They see us as a threat
But it's time to takeover
Now it's time to get respect
So let's do it
Let's make 'em see us as one
Let's show that we a unit
And we're bleeding as one
I'm done with racism
I'm sick of all the hatin'
But this is our land
So it's time for us to take it
Everybody put your hands up, hands up
All my people come and stand up, stand up
It's our time to take over
It's our time to take over
Everybody put your hands up, hands up
All my people come and stand up, stand up
It's our time to take over
It's our time to take over
Now we walking as one
Yeah I hear people talking
They don't know what it's done
You say we live in fear, I feel
Like I'm on the run
Gettin' hassled every day
With a badge and a gun
Never tell 'em what's up
I'd rather tell 'em "get fucked"
And if they shoot then I duck
Still run up with the brothers
Yeah we runnin' amock
You know we young, black, gifted
Gears stay shifted
If you don't know, black boys
We stay dreamin'
Put your hands up
And everybody need to stand up
I'm sick of hearing of the brothers in the handcuffs
Ah, now we gotta make a difference
And everybody gotta stay wicked
Everybody put your hands up, hands up
All my people come and stand up, stand up
It's our time to take over
It's our time to take over
Everybody put your hands up, hands up
All my people come and stand up, stand up
It's our time to take over
It's our time to take over
All my people come and stand up, stand up
It's our time to take over
It's our time to take over
Everybody put your hands up, hands up
All my people come and stand up, stand up
It's our time to take over
It's our time to take over
Yeah, we gotta stand up
We gotta say what's real
We gotta yell into their face
How they make us feel
Let's make a move on racism
