Keep Getting Back Up

Yeah (they try to keep me down)
They try to keep me down
But I keep gettin back up
They try to keep me down
But I keep gettin back up

No more playin' games
Fuck cops and robbers
Time to re-elect the ones
Who don't spit and slobber
When a life's on the line
They ain't ever got the time but
They be killin' for a dime, yup
It's over
Y'all done pissed off a generation
That's sick of our elimination
Go head keep comin' with that goulash
Y'all gon' wake up
With the dawn in the dish washer
We comin' with the heat
Pay attention cause we switchin' up the feet
Power forward, no order but equality
No more hands up
We makin' new history, yeah

They try to keep me down
But I keep gettin back up
They try to keep me down
But I keep gettin back up
They try to keep me down
But I keep gettin back up
They try to keep me down
But I keep gettin back up

This is more than a revolution
It's the evolution
Of a new type of human
A mutant you could say
A new people with minds and hearts that are equal
Better than your favorite sequel
Putting an end to all the evil, yeah
A renaissance of the art
That lights up every piece of the dark
Every statute that was placed for limitations
I would give a demonstration
But instead imma give you this invitation
To the funeral of your twisted fantasy
I got nothing but love for my enemies
But don't think I won't kill the beast
With my own two feet
I'll Muhammad Ali you into next week, yeah

They try to keep me down
But I keep gettin back up
They try to keep me down
But I keep gettin back up
They try to keep me down
But I keep gettin back up
They try to keep me down
But I keep gettin back up

It wouldn't be right
If I didn't sing right here this one time
I'm so proud of my people
Yeah
One fist in the air
They gon' have a hard time breathin' here
Cause in this new
Ain't no place for you
Who oppress to impress
Fuck that shit
I'm not making any threats, nope
My political finesse
Resides in togetherness and justice
For all
No one is above the law
It don't matter what suit you go on
If you a murderer
You should be charged as a murderer
It just makes sense
What part of that don't y'all get

They try to keep me down
But I keep gettin back up
They try to keep me down
But I keep gettin back up
They try to keep me down
But I keep gettin back up
They try to keep me down
But I keep gettin back up
Imma keep gettin
Imma, imma keep
Imma keep gettin
Imma, imma keep
Imma keep gettin
Imma, imma keep
I, imma
Imma keep gettin back up
