bar wars - a track for the clones lyrics

[verse 1]
‘man i came in the building, seekin, askin, and knockin
the summer was ’85, the people, poppin’ and lockin’
and ‘gci’ is was rockin, while ‘bmx’ it was droppin
mayor washington was in office and hustlin’ was the doctrine
before it was ‘five+0’ we said, ‘here come the police’
then see ’em flyin down the street, in a chevy caprice
boxed up+
blocks stuck to the ‘lit’ or the ‘code’
we was shorties in the game, but still deep when we rolled
see a cipher, now we charged, jo, we gathered around
to see the battle first hand and witness how it went down
all in trance, formed as we bobbed to the sound+
‘look how he hunchin’ his shoulders and keepin his arms folded’
he grinnin like he winnin and wantin’ people to show up
to hear, line for line, his competition get tore up
see this is when the music was still driven by poets
and this is when the people could feel it, touch it, and mold it
but now…

[verse 2]
oh, you copped you a fitted, and you got you a tat?
you’ rockin a ‘wife+beater’ and you listen to rap
you know how to dap +
you study, you admire the creed
taught to you by some lames, you was buyin’ em weed
dyin’ to bleed for something you know nothin’ about
get online, try to shine, but they punkin’ you out
see game recognize game, pain recognizes pain
if you got it how you claim, why we don’t recognize yo’ name?
it’s a shame when you’ve gotta act
whack when you’ve gotta act
‘ignant’, call it black as if blacks don’t know how to act
so i’ve gotta come at that wit’ word, indeed
and intercede for my seeds and their seeds to be
free+er than me
the son sets, now we’ rising again
restorin’ vision to the eyes that were blinded by sin
buildin’ with men, prayerfully seekin’ a resolution
to overthrow this clone state of mind, the revolution
is here…

[verse 3]
surrounded by sin, i’m seein’ truth and honor distorted
i glance at the senate’s recorder, as i hear the words ‘order
this hearings’ in session.’ the speaker reminded me of my charges
and asked if i had any last words, i said that ‘god is
my rock…
he shall deliver me, from the hands of my enemies
and raise up even stronger kin0bis as you begin to see
the course of this music change, the source of this music’s change
is the most high, you’ll no longer call this music strange’
never!!! shall your sound be accepted as legitimate
‘say what you will, senator, but you’ll never get rid of it’
the heart of rap forces even you to have to let it live
so even though your clones’ flow’s redundant and repetitive
the sin in which it’s rooted’s the reason i was recruited
but now i stand trial for exposin’ the fact you looted
an entire culture, in your drive for power and wealth
you lie to me, the people, worst, you even lie to yourself’
