Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hold up, wait a minute, something ain't right
The corruption has moved in view of my eyesight
Hold up, wait a minute, something ain't right
The corruption has moved in view of my eyesight
[Verse 2]
And as I lay me, as I lay me, dap me down to rest
I lay my sword, my lady lays upon my chest
It's been a crazy war, the devils bangin' on my door
My dear, my dear, my dear, I hear the shots ring, lay on the floor
I don't fear anyone but the maker
'Cause we can never murder hate, but can murder a hater
What's a more American way than tryna give em a taste of they own medicine?
Prevalent, ethnic, rebel, revel the revolution of melanin
Bust a move to the ghetto, we must improve the development
Brought some food for the fellowship, got the noose on my brethren
Call the goons and the government, come correct the corruption
Break the racial construction, building up
In the spirt of liberation give me life or imma take it
That's my human right,universally you and I we could be unified
But when you speaking truth beyond your youth they want you euthanized
Creeping through the night, it's something moving right?
[Verse 3]
Hold up, wait a minute, something ain't right
The corruption has moved in view of my eyesight
Hold up, wait a minute, something ain't right
The corruption has moved in view of my eyesight
[Verse 4]
Hold up
Watch over me and my body man
Trouble all around, can't trust nobody man
Devil on my heels and they all wanna cross me
Loyalty to God and my loyalty to Bobby
I'm the Panther man
Always lying to us on the camera man
Death all around, pray you never light a candle man
Knowing somebody gotta die for our freedom man
Know they plotting on me
Hear the sounds at the battleground
Ain't nobody I fear, I'm ready
Watch my back while I press on steady
Load my gun, full clip, no hesi
The government the pigs, they deceit like a levy
They flood thy hood with the blood of the solider
Poor black man look over thy shoulder
Go and tell got the target on me
But we don't stand down until the people are free screaming
[Verse 5]
Hold up, wait a minute, something ain't right
The corruption has moved in view of my eyesight
Hold up, wait a minute, thou wanna fight
The corruption has moved in view and I and I and I
Can't wait to get away
Way, way, way, way
Can't wait to get away
Way, way, way, way
[Verse 6]
Hold up, wait a minute, something ain't right
The corruption has moved in view of my eyesight
