[Intro]

You have to speak the truth

You have to speak your mind


[Verse 1]

Every time I speak my mind I'm lyrically critical

The pinnacle of being revolutionarily pivotal

Beyond anything ever studied that's metaphysical

Man, fuck a minority, I'm not politically minimal

But obviously terminologies that are statistical

Are manufactured to be unequivocally subliminal

Transmitted by monopolized media visuals

So I riddle hypocritically pitiful criminals

Habitually utilizing typical rituals

With false pretense in attempts to be spiritual

To individuals who believe in Biblical miracles

Instead of themselves, 'cause they're not thinkin' original

And the color of their skin makes them feel invisible

Like microscopic miscarriages lynched with the umbilical

Only a fuckin' imbecile would think they're uncorrectable

'Cause you're susceptible to becomin' more than a spectacle

Remember that your flesh, your blood, and your body are dissectable; I'll beat you until you're a vegetable

And wake up in a hospital, covered in poisonous chemicals

In a fetal position with your face sewn to your testicles

Thinkin' that you were kidnapped by extraterrestrials

You got heart? I'm the blood that pumps in your ventricles

Technique, I'm like your soul, nigga, indispensable

With no respect for those who cower at the hour of revolution

'Cause the government owes my people restitution

Instead of sedatives like cocaine and prostitution

Conclusion is that you'll have to violently silence me

'Cause I raid the airwaves of cutthroat piracy

In school my teachers blinded me, but now I can see

Now I'm mentally and revolutionarily free

Broadenin' horizons about what my people could be

If we wasn't set up to get shot, locked, or OD

You see families bleed because of corporate greed

And monopolizin' weed is virtually impossible

So it won't be legalized, and that's another obstacle

But I'm still rollin' up pocket fulls of tropical

The government's involved directly, so it's unstoppable

Like a nuclear rocket full of biochemical toxins

That invade the ecological

Improbable that the average intellect could understand

So I encrypted this into hip hop that's in high demand

And spread it through the ghetto of every city like contraband

Stomp a man of any complexion with a devilish nature

'Cause I'm tryin' to save the Earth

But you're just gettin' in line to rape her
