Bring that shit in!
uh!
Yeah the movement's
in motion
With mass militant
poetry uh!
In the right light
study becomes insight
But the system
that dissed us
Teaches us
to read and right
So called
facts are fraud
They want us
to allege and pledge
And bow down
to their God
Lost the culture
the culture lost
Spun our minds
and through time
Ignorance has
taken over
Yo we gotta
take the power back
Bam! here's the plan
mother fxxx Uncle Sam
Step back
I know who I am
Raise up your ear
I'll drop the style
And clear
it's the beats
And the lyrics
they fear
The rage is relentless
we need a movement
With a quickness
you are the witness
Of change
and to counteract
We gotta
take the power back
We gotta
take the power back
Come on
come on
We gotta
take the power back
The present curriculum
I put my fist in 'em
Eurocentric
every last one of 'em
See right
through the red white
And blue disguise
with lecture
I puncture
the structure of lies
Installed
in our minds
And attempting
to hold us back
We've got
to take it back
'Cause holes
in our spirit causin'
Tears and fears
one sided stories
For years and years
and years
I'm inferior?
who's inferior?
Yeah we need
to check the interior
Of the system
that cares
About only one culture
and that is why
We gotta
take the power back
Yeah we gotta
take the power back
Come on
come on
Yeah we gotta
take the power back

The teacher stands
in front of the class
But the lesson plan
he can't recall
The student's eyes
don't perceive
The lies bouning off
every fucking wall
His composure is
well kept
I guess he fears
playing the fool
The complacent
students sit
And listen to
some of that
Bullshit that
he learned in school
Europe ain't my rope
to swing on
Can't learn a thing
from it
Yet we hang from it
gotta get it
Gotta get it
together then
Like the mother
fxxx' weathermen
To expose
and close the doors
On those who try
to strangle
And mangle the truth
'cause the circle
Of hatred continues
unless we react
We gotta
take the power back
Yeah we gotta
take the power back
Come on
come on
Yeah we gotta
take the power back

No more lies
no more lies
No more lies
no more lies
No more lies
no more lies
No more lies
no more lies uh! yeah!
Take it back y'all
take it back
A take it back
a take it back y'all
Come on
take it back y'all
Take it back
a take it back
A take it back y'all
come on uh! yeah!
