jack frost (us) - a revolution televised lyrics
the revolution will be televised
the revolution will be in high resolution by those who want restitution
watched by a billion eyes, on ig live and twisted like curly fries until the lies are the only thing that you see
the revolution will cause you to question who is racist?
and who is at fault for the cases..
and who is hurting the case by…running into stores and grabbing cases of…whatever
the revolution will be fought by the generation who grew up on 2pac, crime mob and dmx
the gеneration who is not afraid to use voodoo, hoodoo or hex
the gеneration who will not take the disrespect
the generation who said, ‘we are not our ancestors. we will beat yo azz’
the revolution will be televised x3
the revolution is here, my brother, my sister
black, white, red, yellow
i don’t care what you look like, but be with me and mine
or tell me why my revolution is being undermined
by the police, fbi. cya. in the crowd, looking like us
looking at us
telling us that burning stores and stealing is ok
yall are defeating the purpose
but the worst part is, they are setting us up to look like animals
like we can’t… handle ourselves in a dignified fashion?
that if you drop pallets of random bricks in the street that we will….. jump into action
slanging them thangs like the epidemic of the 80s
aiming for cops, white folks, men, women, children and babies?
we are not animals but we demand change
the revolution will be televised, be it on body cam or in retro j’s
i do not condone, even though we are on the same page
those who engage this revolution with unadulterated rage
for being met with gas canisters, fractured skulls, lost eyes due to rubber bullet holes
i do not condone, even though we are on the same page
those who those who flip police cars
we. are. one
the revolution will be televised
keep open your eyes
the revolution will be televised
and they say, ‘why, oh why?’ and ‘i dont see color’
when we are being k!lled for having picnics
asking people to leash their dogs
selling cigarettes, cds, standing around
get on your knees. now lay on your belly. hands on your spine
stop resisting. ‘but sir, i’m handcuffed. and your collective knees are beginning to grind’
pistol on the left, taser on the right
even tho they were right handed, that pistol was clutched mighty tight
the revolution will be televised, for this reason and many others like them
i am. a black man. with a black family. and a white dog
the whole world is on the same side
maybe if you look in the mirror you will realize
that you are us and we are you, then maybe we can get on the same page too
but if you not with us…
choosing the side, that would rather shoot first, question later, loot, rob, steal, snitch and hide
then we. will. ride
history repeats to those who don’t learn
so tune in, sign on and watch with concern
why? cuz the revolution will be televised
