[Em]
What you gonna do?
We ain't free no more.
What you [F#] really gonna do?
We ain't [E] never been free.
They coming home boy.
[Em] What you gonna do?
What you gonna do?
What you gonna do?
[E] What you gonna do?
Flee in the scenic and with blood on my cool
[Em] Kids might be looking at [E] murder
My team can't afford this, [Em] just another predicament
Unexpected I'm a thick and quick but next time
We're different, [F#] completely so and I'm lickin'
[E] This is my call, it's tickin' in no longer
Recidivism, [Em] let me speak terror, raped by terrorists
Committing megacides, killing for the dividends
And pillaging millions of men while we just trying to
Keep respect within the streets, we're living
In a value status with no gratitude for America
Our uncle says plan for the poorest, war for America
This country doesn't care for us, trying to become a rarer
Trust, nothing that's presented [F#] by government
Sponsored media, [E] spending more money than prisons
And warping our schools, [Em] and making up their own rules
Testing players for fools, stripping our weapons and tools
That could be used to fight back against
Iranian conglomerates, civil rights men
Hide and check your [E] slides, gang members
You disagree, explain this to me
[Em] Niggas were right to rob and check out their school history
They should vote for the misery unless it benefits
Their propaganda, or by this decision
They'll all write their social unity standards
Captive taking shots, cops is that's what needed
Kill a king before my life is lost
And I succeeded [E] in helping to overthrow
A systematic control, it's just a matter [G] of time
Before the battle unfolds, [E] it's just a matter of time
[Em] What you gonna do?
We [Em] stack and gather your minds
Before they come for you, prepare to battle for free
And that's what is coming to you
We need to feed the cattle, let's bleed this home with something
If you [E] wanna ride, I'd keep that extra dough for you
[Em] Don't be scared to die fighting for something true
See through the wicked agenda
Make rooms to remove the center of operations
They're staging, caging us up for legal danger
[E] This is a face in the gang files
No case will be faced, [Em] trial convincing
The pubs were nothing but criminal waste piles
They need to be disposed of and closed
With an emergency, a state of emergency
[F#m] I declare, till they murder me
[E] You really think they're plotting on your death, homie?
Certainly, [Em] just listen to the words I spin
You think that they ain't hurting me?
And all they got, they never pull their sheets back
Looking at ponies like slaughter cattle on a meat rack
Creep that guy, pinky pie, little pinky die-die
Tell them devils that you're working for a tie
For an eye to the life of my brother
But not a rhyme like no other
Plant a mold in the circle, that's a dead undercover
[E] Y'all been picking this off for years
Keeping our thoughts [Em] impaired, creating laws for fear
Keeping us locked up here, and it doesn't cost a [E] care
Where money stay tucked, and where democracy [G] is yet to treat the masses in poverty
It's just a matter of time
Before the battle unfolds, it's [Em] just a matter of time
Before [E] they come for you
Prepare to battle for free, that's what it's come for
Just to be the cattle that's bleached, that's [A] all it's soft enough
You [E] wanna ride?
I got that extra gun for you
[Em] Don't be scared to die fighting for something true
See through the wicked agenda, make moves to remove the center of operations
The state's engaging in stuff of legal gender
It's blatantly american, see this world for what it is
Many turn a blind eye by shooting smack up, popping dicks
While they know we're stalking pigs, prematurely cocking cigs
We're the slightest disturbance of [F#] the beast
They sucking kids [E] in the face, police catching the worst
We're the little [Em] homies, regulating prisons and graces
Consider waste, by the upper class
Lock us up in double-decks, every instant
Now we make them pay for our troubled past
If they [E] hear I can correct when niggas disilluminate
Be warned, [Em] if you choose to hate me
I promise to crucify you, before they look at you as prey
Choose you up, then do away
Open your body and make your family pay
To [F#] let your rules negate, so who's to [Em] say the news relates
Any ease of truth, when there's a war, there's born a death
And every pet denouncing you, is an obvious plan
To distract her from [E] what's at hand as they invade
And now they'll never [G] watch her making it
Bang, bang, it's [Em] just a matter of time
What you gonna [E] do, she'll be standing out of your mind
Before they come for you
Prepare to battle for free, that's what it's coming to
To [Em] beat the catalyst, bleep this [F#] wrong, it's something new
You [E] wanna ride, I got that extra gun for you
[Em] Always scared to fight for something true
Even though we need to generate, we should remove
The center of operations, there's days engaging
This self-illegal tinder
We are not gangstas, George Bush is a gangsta
I'm going to be the president of everybody
Whether they voted for me or not, I'm going to be the president of everybody
I'm going to be the president of everybody
Whether they voted for me or not, I'm going to be the president of everybody

[E] I'm going to be the president of everybody
I'm going to be the president of everybody
We wouldn't know what to do if we [G] hadn't been panic-stricken, [E] fear-stricken
We wouldn't have happened
If we [Em] wouldn't of done the same thing they did
Let's say [G] somebody bombed on us and we went over they house and [Em] bombed back
We're going to fucking jail
What you gonna do?
We ain't free no more.
What you [F#] really gonna do?
We ain't [E] never been free.
