[Verse 1]
Have you heard the new word kickin' to the suburb?
The time is now 'cause act's a strong verb
But only if you use it. Please don't confuse it
To what ya said. Not the same old B-tread
Like Reagan and Bush, it's time to push
Out the old. Just do what ya told
And what ya said 'cause their words are left for dead
And in the end, actions speak louder than words
Pick up a men. We'll tell you what they're gonna do
In the meantime, we get the voodoo
Like a corkscrew, thеy'll go through ya
Put the word in your ear and go booyah
But their actions lack in satisfaction
Our rеaction depends on our passion
To make the liars all retire
'cause their words better unheard
'Cause of man of actions---what's happenin'?
'Till the stops, I won't stop rapping
To kill the DC songbirds
'cause when it's done, actions speak louder than words
[Chorus]
To the youth, it's time for some action
It's time for some action
To the elders, it's time for some action
It's time for some action
All nations, it's time for some action
It's time for some action
Everybody, it's time for some action
(Actions speak louder than words.)
[Verse 2]
The politicians keep on dissing
Voice of the people but they won't listen
And when they speak, it's not our words they speak
But the words of a sucker that paid him last week
And if it came down to the real fact---
If a politician was a crime, it'd be a car jack
They make the promises, you vote, and I bet ya
The promise they made last week---ah, forget ya
No class and all talk, your ass to the sidewalk
'cause you've been jacked by the man with the smooth talk. Gangsters hears gang; politics' claim that they must time to take aim
[Chorus]
It's time for some action
Truly, it's time for some action
It's time for some action
To the elders, it's time for some action
It's time for some action
All nations, it's time for some action
It's time for some action
Everybody, it's time for some action
(Yo, yo, my brother, what's up?)
(Nothin', man, what's up? W-what's the deal?)
(Man, how come you sit here in front of this TV 24/7? Why don't you get out?)
(Man, that's my deal, man. What I do is what I wanna do.)
(What you need to do is get knowledge ya'self.)
[Verse 3]
Politicians in the process gang the whole deal
Someone must allow them when they take, rob, and steal
Who are the fools who allow the devils to rule?
Coming up lame is the name of their game
Look in the mirror and what you see?
Little baby whiners---that's how I define thee
Complain and bitch, but you still get the switch
While America's rich, you'll take the ditch
But W.O.R. ain't like that; that's why we mic this
Staying this strong behind the native
Fist of fury, our minds in a hurry, 'bout time you heard me
(Yeah, I think they heard ya.)
[Refrain]
'Cause our actions speak louder than words
'Cause our actions speak louder than words
'Cause our actions speak louder than words
'Cause our actions speak louder than words
[Chorus]
It's time for some action
To the youth, it's time for some action
It's time for some action
To the elders, it's time for some action
It's time for some action
All nations, it's time for some action
It's time for some action
Everybody, it's time for some action
