Each one of my cells it got a baseline
If blind even in Braille I would create rhymes
This time I'm gonna excel and not forsake mine
We kinda like black Einstein's with a great mind
See I done figured out the plan, yea the man own the media
The dictionary 's and the encyclopedia
The judges and the courts , referees and the sports
The U.N. ain't a friend to people of dark skin
So they send all the warriors and the leaders to the pen
And the rest to Afghanistan , Africans and Mexicans
An officer you ' re questioning
then in peace you 'll be resting in
better watch your mouth in the south
I'm suggesting'n,for your protection , man
( chorus )
Beautiful people around the world
Stand up for what you believe in
Open up your mouth
Say it loud and proud
Let your voice be heard
( Speech )
They asked me to sign a petition to save black radio
I said let it die hey hey hey - good bye
Death of auto tune and I'm asking hey why ?
Just auto tune ? lets let the whole pimp thang die too
All of that gutter rap I want it to drain dry
VIBE died I celebrated like at a birth
Maybe we take our race to places of some worth
Peoples silence that's as loud as a bomb can be reversed
and we usher in a new day
bust in a new way
used to be like cool J
couldn't live without my radio but now
I can't live with my radio
So pow- shot it in the chest
Watched it die on my couch
It had a bullet proof vest
I shot it in the mouth
A revolutionary with a plan to speak it loud
Speech is the name understand what dats about
too black plus too proud
it equals Never sellin' out
lo and behold ,a.d.too cold
for the mail
we will never sell out our souls
see the truth is untold
about population control
and the land that they stole
was full of diamonds and gold
( chorus )
Everybody put them all up now
Everybody wave them all up now
Jump, come on ,jump, jump , jump
( 1 Love )
Soldiers are fighting for freedom despite when
The attack on 9 -11 was planed inside , man
Deceived and we frightened , the goal is achieved
When we believe the lies the enemies are writing
Relying on the journalist to enlighten
Creating more terrorist , clash of the t**ans
Love is the thoroughist , I survived Iraq
Now I'm back in the booth
Spitting truth on the track , yea
Clap your hands
Stand up everybody
Don't let folks steal your life
Let it shine
Cause it's alright
Ooh child , it's alright
Ooh child , it's alright
Each one of my cells it got a baseline
If blind even in Braille I would create rhymes
This time I'm gonna excel and not forsake mine
