Politrikks - Dead Prez

You already know what time it is

Dead… prez… dot… com

Information news

Everywhere we go

Every day on TV

They be talking about

Who you gonna vote for

You got a black man running

But I wonder if he get in

Who he gonna open up the door for?

I don’t wanna to discourage my folk

I believe in hope

I just want us to want more

Politics is a game

How they keep us contained

There gotta be more that we could hope for

Democrats and Republicans

Just 2 sides of the same coin

Either way, it’s still white power

It’s the same system

Just changed form

You wanna vote?

please do!

Cast your ballot, let your voice be heard

But what I do want to say is

After the election

You’ll see

Mark my words

It’s politic time again

It’s politrick time again

It’s politic time again

It’s politrick time again

Shoot the messenger!

This is the most important election of all time

The government’s committing the biggest of all crimes

These bullshit politicians say they speaking for the people

Before they ran for office, they were shitting on the people

Billion dollar campaigns

Trillion dollar bailout

Anybody know the definition of a sell-out?

huh?

And if Obama win, he wouldn’t be the first black

Take your 2 dollar bill and turn it over to the back (you see? right there)

But with the TV on, you only hearing they voice

The system is broken, they trying to beat a dead horse

Go ahead and vote for the lesser of two evils

I plot, plan, and strategize with the poor people

The middle class will say this opinion is irresponsible

But if you ain’t got no healthcare, they kickin' you out the hospital

McKinney, Clemente, off in the Green Party

No disrespect, we need a Red, Black, and Green Party

Like Marcus Garvey’s

Even if Obama wins

Uncle Sam ain’t my friend

It’s politrikkks time again

It’s bullshit time again

The time is on the side of the oppressed today;

it’s against the oppressor

And truth is on the side of the oppressed today;

it’s against the oppressor

You’ll see it.

You’ll see terrorism…
