Brothers on the block making bankroll The billion dollar dream is the dream for the cash flow Little do they know, they're a little or a big hoe But they have a car they can side at the sideshowI'm the type of brother that'll tell another, "Hell no" To the seller struck hiking rocks in a hellhole Whether you can slide you can glide in your hoo ride But you're gonna drown in the high tide of genocideBrothers give my five but it's live jive Can't understand with their hands in a beehive I'mma take a risk on the dis take a big dive Just to make it rhyme on time I'll say "Overdrive"Missed 'em, I'm not with them but they're victims 'Cause they're just a part not the start of the system No hocus pocus, that's the focus of the song Hope that you can learn this and one day sing alongA clearly cut case co-opted by The Coup An expose of foul play against me and you Sing itIt's funky, it's funky, it's funky, it's a funky situation It's funky, it's funky, it's funky, it's a funky situation It's funky, it's funky, it's funky, it's a funky situation It's funky, it's funky, it's funky, it's a funky situation (Still don't nothing move but the money) (Man Boots what you talking about?)Explicit and implicit are the exploits I'm speaking of the society that's living off me No jumps and coast to coasting in a Detroit No I am a factor that they don't need'Cause labels are stable in this big world Talking 'bout sex, you're a boy or a girl Talking 'bout a kind you're a jerk or the jerker Talking economics, you're the boss or the workerRight about now I'm gonna change the flow Going straight up like my new wave afro I say it and they play it Do you hear me though, you're guessing there's a lesson But teach me, I want to knowConjunction, junction what's my function? Connected with the genocidal pace of a race reduction Funny there's no money for my people's production The Coup is not through cause we've got some gumptionA victim in a system about cold cash If you don't make it then they treat you like trash Dispose of you tonight if not in the morning This is not a prophecy, this is just a warningA clearly cut case co-opted by The Coup An expos?of foul play against me and you Sing itIt's funky, it's funky, it's funky, it's a funky situation It's funky, it's funky, it's funky, it's a funky situation It's funky, it's funky, it's funky, it's a funky situation It's funky, it's funky, it's funky, it's a funky situation Hey hold up we're about to let the DJ scratch here (Well, let him scratch then)At times I find my mind can think fast Like when a pig has a trigger saying nigger that's your ass Thoughts of a slave master rise from the past The past is the present, 'cause I still feel the lashIt's against the law just to be black 'Cause the war on drugs is just thugs on the attack The C is not the source of course so just get back Why try a lot, I doubt it's just about crackBrothers on the block making bankroll Maybe could the dream be the dream of an overthrow? If so no mo' we'll play the big toe In a shoe that's cramped so break a brother's soleSlip and stuck slowly to the same game Several hundred years we have been in a chain gang Let our shackles only add on to a migraine Old fame, thoughts of pain slowly drive me insaneBut then I started rapping for The Coup A lot of rappers out there just looking for the pay-off Listen to the message that the Boots brings to you The Coup is just a group to bring order out of chaosPeople pick problems out and isolate Misguiding many to think it's a mistake Well, I'm the Boots and I'm here to set 'em straight My information leads me to think there's foul playA clearly cut case co-opted by The Coup An expos?of foul play against me and you Sing itIt's funky, it's funky, it's funky, it's a funky situation It's funky, it's funky, it's funky, it's a funky situation It's funky, it's funky, it's funky, it's a funky situation It's funky, it's funky, it's funky, it's a funky situation
Это интересно:Communist-influenced, socially conscious hip-hop group from Oakland, California, originally comprised of emcees Boots Riley and E-Roc, and DJ Pam the Funkstress. E-Roc left the group in 1997 to become a longshoreman, but Boots and Pam perservered.The group had a brief moment of worldwide fame at the time of the 9/11 attacks when it was revealed that the proposed cover for their upcoming album Party Music featured Boots blowing up the World Trade Center. This cover was swiftly pulled! It is ironic to note that this discovery was made mere days before the actual attacks.
