Revolution
Listen everybody from across the nation
This is the movement of unification
Tried to hold back but it's too severe
Been living to long in racial fear
The time is now for retribution
Call it what you will, it's a revolution
Racist people fear the day
Step back bigot 'cause we're coming your way
Equipped with knowledge and perseverance
Taking no crap, don't need no clearance
Interference it ain't part of the plan
So, don't stand in the way of the promise land
Cause we'll beat you down, beat, beat you down
Where's the revolution? Just look around
It's in me, it's in him, it's her, it's in you
Kicking that knowledge, am I getting through
No? Then let me kick it like this
We're gonna end ALL forms of prejudice
Black, red, white. yellow & brown
Get up everybody 'cause it's time to throw down
No more living in a racist land
So, send this message to Uncle Sam
Damn the man that can't understand
Bam! The revolution's at hand
Revolution (woohooo oh yeah)
Revolution (woohooo oh yeah)
Revolution (woohooo oh yeah)
Revolution (woohooo oh yeah)
Revolution's at hand and it's coming down hard
With no regard, tearing bigots apart
Old fashioned fools with old fashioned rules
Done nothing in their life but ridicule
A different culture, a different style
Forcing people to live a life in exile
Suppressed, oppressed and not by request
Can't afford to dress, so you call'em a pest
Regressed, drove to homelessness
All because some suckers are prejudice
We need a solution, say revolution
Fight to enforce the constitution
Cause everyone was created equal
Better listen now 'cause there ain't no sequel
Once those credits roll
The movies over, the story's told
So, just give me some time, a piece of your mind
There's so many things, I need to define
I'm not a king and I don't wanna be crowned
Cause this land of ours is turned upside down
People starving to death and killing each other
Too many fights on race creed and color
Well, I'm tired of all that, I'm tired of it all
We've seen the world claim to rise, but fall
And boy it fell
Man, this whole world is going straight to hell
But, are you going down with it? I know I'm not
Cause down in hell it's way too hot
Nah, the people like you and me that car
We should be the new world and make it fair
See the faces of racism get gone
How? The revolution is on
Revolution (woohooo oh yeah)
Revolution (woohooo oh yeah)
Revolution (woohooo oh yeah)
Revolution (woohooo oh yeah)
So, come together, tear down the wall
Watch it crumble, watch it fall
Join the new world and take a stand
Revolution that is the plan
Equality is where we set our aim
Cause in the new world, we're all the same
Revolution, that's what we're gonna do, man
You see there's only one race HUMAN
This is the movement of unification
Tried to hold back but it's too severe
Been living to long in racial fear
The time is now for retribution
Call it what you will, it's a revolution
Racist people fear the day
Step back bigot 'cause we're coming your way
Equipped with knowledge and perseverance
Taking no crap, don't need no clearance

Cause we'll beat you down, beat, beat you down
