作词 : Davis, Riley | |
B:hello | |
D:yes, i would like to speak to boots from the rap group the coop. | |
B:it's the coup, and this is boots. speak | |
D:well my name is dick doolittle and i'm a reporter from grime magazine | |
And we would like to comment on the tragic riots-- | |
B: not a riot, it's a rebellion | |
D: well the tragic rebellion? | |
B: man, tragic for who? | |
D: well there's havoc in the streets, the police have lost control over the | |
People, criminals are running free from jail, and people are actually | |
Taking property from big businesses, it's full of complete chaos | |
B: that's not chaos, that's progress | |
D: mm-hmm, ok, is that your comment? | |
B: no, this is it | |
[boots] | |
Check it out, it's the motherfucking c-o-u | |
To the p now you're fucking with the real dudes | |
Who will meet you with a fleet of brothers in the street | |
Getting drunk off liberation fuck the hennessey | |
Cause you calmly kept us down for far too long | |
Now you're going up in smoke like cheech and chong | |
And the song "i ain't the nigga" is the constitution | |
Niggers die but africans make revolution | |
So what happens when a people do not get their dues | |
Well it's tried there's a riot so flip on the news | |
And let's go reach the 98th here in oaktown | |
But let's just say for story's sake that it's in your town | |
A hundred brothers taking factories, warren's law is gutters | |
And now they're handing out free chicken and free peanut butter | |
Free food to the people, how it should be | |
But now let's go a few blocks over to 7-3 | |
Channel 2 says at the mall twelve cops got shot | |
Cause there's eight hundred sisters taking over eastmont | |
With nines and ak's doing the right think like spike lee | |
And now their babies got free pampers and free nikes | |
Up at the schoolhouse they said motherfuck a hall pass | |
Until you teach the truth, check it we ain't going to class | |
You're teaching lies, we got wise, now we realize | |
There's no end to this road, you disguised the prize | |
So peep game for real mental penetration | |
Our education's liberation | |
Things ain't gon' never be the same x2 | |
At 6-9 there's a rally and it's swinging | |
Through the crowd with a thousand voices singing | |
Once upon a time in the projects, yo | |
Motherfuckers took over, and now we running the show | |
We don't give a damn about section eight though | |
For what we really need we're gonna have to take mo' | |
The same thing was heard in the a courts | |
In kendall village, across the bay in fillmore | |
And in the hills where all the rich folks live | |
They're in shock we're not failing to vote and build | |
Instead of brothers on stage singing "do me" | |
A black man has a gauge singing "do this, see?" | |
All of a sudden everybody is out of jail | |
But it's funny cause no one is out on bail | |
And somebody shoved some police against the wall | |
I guess today they should've worn their clean drawers | |
Cause an ambulance came, that's the reality | |
There's now a new meaning to police brutality | |
All we need is satisfaction | |
We don't want just a fraction | |
And we've come to | |
A conclusion | |
Revolution is the solution | |
Check it | |
Now the uzi's that were once used to kill each other | |
Are now used to serve and protect the brothers | |
And the sisters cause they're packing .45's and nines | |
We're down for revolution not just down for their behinds | |
Cause the word is heard across the bay and in l.a. | |
In new york, ny, chicago, and atlanta, g-a | |
We gives a fuck if you've got money and the millions | |
Cause motherfucker we've got posse in the billions | |
So break yourself bush, it's collection day | |
Break yourself trump, it's collection day | |
Break yourself dupont, it's collection day | |
You stole the shit from my great granddaddy anyway | |
The liquor stores around, but they're not selling beer or ale | |
Motherfuckers selling molotov cocktails | |
To the crew, so light up a brew | |
And this is what is meant by a god damned coup | |
Dj o on the cut y'all | |
Ah yes, k-mack's on the strings y'all |
