  LYRICS

  BASS INTRO

  GUITAR INTRO

  

  -PART 1

  In the right light, study becomes insight

  But the systems that dissed us

  Teaches us to read and write

  So-called facts are fraud

  They want us to allege and pledge

  And bow down to thier God

  Lost the culture, the culture lost

  Spun our minds and through time

  Ignorance has taken over

  We gotta take the power back

  Bam! here's the plan

  Mother fuck 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 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

  

  -CHORUS

  We gotta take the power back

  We gotta take the power back

  

  -PART 2

  The present curriculums

  I put my fist in 'em

  Eurocentric every last on e 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 gotta take the power back

  'Cause holes in our spirit are causin' tears and fears

  One-sides stories for years and years and years

  I'm inferior? Who's inferior?

  Yea, we needa check the interior

  Of the system who cares about only one culture

  And that is why

  We gotta take the power back

  

  -CHORUS

  -SOLO

  -PART 3

  

  -PART 4

  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

  Bouncing off every fucking wall

  His composure is well kept

  I guess he fears playing the fool

  The complacent students sit and listen to the

  Bullshit that he learned in school

  

  -PART 5

  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 fuckin' 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

  

  -Chorus

  -No more lies

  -End part
