People of The Sun

 

Yeah people come up

 

Yeah, we better turn tha bass up on this one

 

Check it, since 1516 minds attacked and overseen

Now crawl amidst the ruins of this empty dream

Wit their borders and boots on top of us

Pullin' knobs on the floor of their toxic metropolis

But how you gonna get what you need ta get?

Tha gut eaters, blood drenched get offensive like Tet

Tha fifth sun sets get back reclaim

Tha spirit of Cuahtemoc alive an untamed

Now face tha funk now blastin' out ya speaker, on tha one Maya, Mexica

 

That vulture came ta try and steal ya name

But now you got a gun

 

Yeah

 

This is for the people of the sun

It's comin' back around again!

This is for tha people of tha sun!

It's comin' back around again! Ugh!

 

It's comin' back around again!

This is for the people of the sun!

It's comin' back around again! Ugh!

 

Yeah,

Neva forget that tha wip snapped ya back

Ya spine cracked for tobacco, oh I'm the Marlboro man, ugh

Our past blastin' on through the verses

Brigades of taxi cabs rollin' Broadway like hearses

Troops strippin' zoots, shots of red mist,

Sailors blood on tha deck, come sista resist

From tha era of terror check this photo lens,

Now tha city of angels does tha ethnic cleanse

Ugh, heads bobbin' to tha funk out ya speaker,

On tha one Maya, Mexica

That vulture came to try and steal ya name

But now you found a gun

You’re history, this is for the people of the sun

 

It's comin' back around again!

This is for the people of the sun!

It's comin' back around again! Yeah!

 

It's comin' back around again!

This is for the people of the sun!

It's comin' back around again!

 

It's comin' back around again!

This is for the people of the sun!

It's comin' back around again!

 

It's comin' back around again!

This is for the people of the sun!

It's comin' back around!

Of the sun

 

 

Bulls On Parade

 

Come wit it now!

Come wit it now!

The microphone explodes, shattering the molds

Either drop tha hits like de la O or get tha fuck off tha commode

Wit tha sure shot, sure ta make tha bodies drop

Drop an don't copy yo, don't call this a co-opt

Terror rains drenchin', quenchin' tha thirst of tha power dons

That five sided fist-a-gon

Tha rotten sore on tha face of mother earth gets bigger

Tha triggers cold empty ya purse

 

Rally round tha family! With a pocket full of shells

They rally round tha family! With a pocket full of shells

They rally round tha family! With a pocket full of shells

They rally round tha family! With a pocket full of shells

 

Weapons not food, not homes, not shoes

Not need, just feed the war cannibal animal

I walk tha corner to tha rubble that used to be a library

Line up to tha mind cemetery now

What we don't know keeps tha contracts alive an movin'

They don't gotta burn tha books they just remove 'em

While arms warehouses fill as quick as tha cells

Rally round tha family, pockets full of shells

 

Rally round tha family! With a pocket full of shells

They rally round tha family! With a pocket full of shells

They rally round tha family! With a pocket full of shells

They rally round tha family! With a pocket full of shells

 

Bulls on parade

 

Come wit it now!

Come wit it now!

Vietnow

 

Turn on tha radio, nah fuck it turn it off

Fear is your only god on tha radio

Nah fuck it, turn it off

Turn it off, turn on tha radio, nah fuck it turn it off

Fear is your only god on tha radio

Nah fuck it, your savior’s my guillotine, crosses and kerosene

 

Merge on tha networks, slangin' nerve gas

Up jump tha boogie then bang, let 'em hang

While tha paranoid try ta stuff tha void

Let's capture this AM mayhem

Undressed, and blessed by tha Lord

Tha power pendulum swings by tha umbilical cord

Shock around tha clock, from noon 'til noon

Men grabbin' they mics, and stuff 'em into tha womb

Terror's tha product ya push

Well I'm a truth addict, oh shit I gotta head rush

Sheep tremble an here come tha votes

Thrown from tha throat, new cages an scapegoats

Undressed and blessed by tha Lord

Tha same devil that ran around Managua wit a sword

Check out tha new style that Ollie found

I tune in wit a bullet ta shut down tha devil sound

Shut down tha devil sound

Tha program of Vietnow

Shut down tha devil sound

 

Turn on the radio, nah fuck it turn it off

Fear is your only god on tha radio

Nah fuck it, turn it off

Turn it off, turn on tha radio, nah fuck it turn it off

Fear is your only god on the radio

Nah fuck it, your savior’s my guillotine, crosses and kerosene

 

Flex tha cerebellum, fire, uh!

Somebody gotta shell 'em

These evil angels lists, hittin' tha AM playlist

Paid ta say this

That one inhuman, illegal, single woman

Tha one wit out a room

The transmissions wippin' our backs

Yeah, comin' down like bats from Stacy Coon

Terror's tha product ya push

Well I'm a truth addict, oh shit I gotta head rush

Tha sheep tremble an here come tha votes

Thrown from tha throat, new cages and scapegoats

One caution tha mics a detonator unwound

Ta shut down tha devil sound

Shut down tha devil sound

Check tha heads bow in Vietnow

Shut down tha devil sound

 

Is all tha world jails and churches?

Is all tha world jails and churches?

Is all tha world jails and churches?

Is all tha world jails and churches?

Is all tha world jails and churches?

 

Radio, nah fuck it, turn it off

Fear is your only god on tha radio

Nah fuck it, turn it off

Turn it off, turn on tha radio, nah fuck it turn it off

Fear is your only god on tha radio

Nah fuck it, your savior’s my guillotine, crosses and kerosene

 

Fear is your, fear is your, fear is your only god

Fear is your, fear is your, fear is your only god

Fear is your, fear is your, fear is your only god

Fear is your, fear is your, fear is your only god

 

 

Revolver

 

His spit is worth more than her work

Pass the purse to the pugilists

He's a prizefighter

And he bought rings and he owns kin

And now he's swingin'

And now he's the champion

Hey revolver, don't mothers make good fathers?

Revolver!

Hey revolver, don't mothers make good fathers?

Revolver

 

A spotless domain

Hides festering hopes she's certain there's more

Pictures of fields without fences

A spotless domain

Hides festering hopes she's certain there's more

Pictures of fields without fences

Her body numbs as he approaches the door

As he approaches the door

As he approaches the door

As he approaches the door

As he approaches

Hey revolver, don't mothers make good fathers?

Revolver!

Hey revolver, don't mothers make good fathers?

Revolver!

Hey revolver, don't mothers make good fathers?

Revolver!

Hey revolver, don't mothers make good fathers?

Revolver!

 

(Guitar solo)

 

Yeah!

Hey revolver, don't mothers make good fathers?

Revolver!

Hey revolver, don't mothers make good fathers?

Revolver!

Revolver!

Revolver!

Revolver!

Revolver!

 

 

Snakecharmer

 

Satellites and, and mirrors and, and a man without a home

With a horse, and a rider, and a clever, cunning killer

Silent in error and vocal in spotlights

Lying always sucking on a bottle of, that sweet, indulgent fluid

Oh greed oh yes, oh greed oh yes!

Oh greed oh yes

Yeah!

Yeah!  (Left channel - 26 years in this stage

Yeah!                  You’re 26 years in this stage)

Yeah!

 

Your friendship is a fog

That disappears when the wind redirects

You!

Yes you!

 

(Guitar solo)

 

Father's expectations, soul soaked in, spit and urine

And you gotta make it where?

To a sanctuary that's a fragile American hell

An empty dream

A selfish, horrific vision

Passed on like the deadliest of viruses

Crushing you and your naive profession

Have no illusions boy

Vomit all ideals and serve

Sleep and wake and serve

And don't just think just wake and serve

Yeah!

Yeah! (Left channel - 26 years in this stage

Yeah!                 You’re 26 years in this stage)

Yeah!

Your friendship is a fog

That disappears when the wind redirects

You! Interested in you, interested in you

Interested in you, interested in you (to end)

 

 

Tire Me

 

Yeah ya tryin' ta tire me, tire me

I can see you in front of me, front of me

Ya tryin' ta tire me, tire me

Why don't you get from in front of me?

Yeah she's got everyone's eyes

Yeah!

In every home there's a sickening distress

Yeah!

Of roll that film she's a precious, a precious one

But we're all gonna......nah we're already dead!

We're already dead!

 

And those colorful words for tha Laos frontiers-man

Who passed away with the truth

Amidst the eulogues of bliss

Who will know now what I know about you?

Now that history's a flowery cancerous mess

Yeah ya tryin' ta tire me

A mess!

Bow down and yes ya tryin' ta tire me

A mess!

Yeah ya tryin' ta tire me, tire me

So get the fuck from in front of me

Nah let's see it broken, bloody and undressed!

We're already dead!

 

(Guitar solo)

 

In a violent time

In a violent time

In a violent time

In a violent time

In a violent time

In a violent time

In a violent time

In a violent time

 

I wanna be Jackie Onassis

I wanna wear a pair of dark sunglasses

I wanna be Jackie O

Oh oh oh oh please don't die!

Yeah ya tryin' ta tire me, tire me

I can see you in front of me, front of me

Ya tryin' ta tire me, tire me

Why don't you get from in front of me?

Ruh!

We're already dead!

We're already dead!

We're already dead!

 

 

Down Rodeo

 

Yeah I'm rollin' down Rodeo wit a shotgun

These people ain't seen a brown skin man

Since their grandparents bought one

 

So now I'm rollin' down Rodeo wit a shotgun

These people ain't seen a brown skin man

Since their grandparents bought one

 

So now I'm rollin' down Rodeo wit a shotgun

 

Bangin' this bolo tight on this solo flight can't fight alone

Funk tha track my verbs fly like tha family stone

Tha pen devils set that stage for tha war at home

Locked wit out a wage ya standin' in tha drop zone

The clockers born starin' at an empty plate

Momma's torn hands cover her sunken face

We hungry but them belly full

The structure is set ya neva change it with a ballot pull

In tha ruins there's a network for tha toxic rock

School yard ta precinct, suburb ta project block

Bosses broke south for new flesh and a factory floor

The remains left chained to the powder war

 

Can't waste a day when the night brings a hearse

So make a move and plead the fifth 'cause ya can't plead the first

Can't waste a day when the night brings a hearse

So now I'm rollin' down Rodeo wit a shotgun

These people ain't seen a brown skin man

Since their grandparents bought one

 

Yes I'm rollin' down Rodeo wit a shotgun

These people ain't seen a brown skin man

Since their grandparents bought one

 

So now I'm rollin' down Rodeo wit a shotgun

 

(Guitar solo)

 

Bare witness to tha sickest shot while suckas get romantic

They ain't gonna send us campin' like they did my man Fred Hampton

Still we lampin' still clockin' dirt for our sweat

A ballots dead so a bullet's what I get

A thousand years they had tha tools

We should be takin' 'em

Fuck tha G-ride I want the machines that are makin' em

Our target straight wit a room full of armed pawn to

Off tha kings out tha west side at dawn

 

Can't waste a day when the night brings a hearse

Make a move and plead the fifth 'cause ya can't plead the first

Can't waste a day when the night brings a hearse

So now I'm rollin' down Rodeo wit a shotgun

These people ain't seen a brown skin man

Since their grandparents bought one

 

Yeah I'm rollin' down Rodeo wit a shotgun

These people ain't seen a brown skin man

Since their grandparents bought one

 

Yeah I'm rollin' down Rodeo wit a shotgun

 

The rungs torn from the ladder can't reach the tumor

One god, one market, one truth, one consumer

 

Just a quiet peaceful dance!

Just a quiet peaceful dance!

Just a quiet peaceful dance!

Just a quiet peaceful dance!

Just a quiet peaceful dance for the things we'll never have

Just a quiet peaceful dance for the things we don't have

 

 

Without A Face

 

Uh! Got no card so I got not soul

Life is prison, no parole, no control

Tha jura got my number on a wire tap

'Cause I jack for similac, fuck a Cadillac

Survive one motive no hope

'Cause every sidewalk I walk is like a tightrope

Yes I know my deadline sire, when my life expires

I'm sendin' paper south under tha barbed wire

Tha mother of my child will lose her mind at my grave

It's my life for their life so call it a free trade

"Por vida" and our name up on tha stall

I took a death trip when I tried ta cross tha white wall

Walk unseen past tha graves an tha gates, born without a face

One motive no hope ah, born without a face

Walk unseen past tha graves an tha gates, born without a face

One motive no hope ah, yeah, born without a face

Without a face

 

Yeah, I tried ta look back ta my past long lost

A blood donor ta tha land owner holocaust

Pops heart stopped, in came tha air drop

Flooded tha trench he couldn't shake tha toxic shock

Maize was all we needed ta sustain

Now her golden skin burns, insecticide rain

Ya down wit DDT yeah you know me

Raped for tha grapes, profit for tha bourgeois

War tape boomin' path is Luminoso

I'm headed north like my name was kid 'Cisco

To survive one motive no hope, ah

It's hard ta breathe wit Wilson's head around my throat

Strangled and mangled another SS curtain call

When I tried ta cross tha white wall

When I tried ta cross tha white walls

Walk unseen past tha graves an tha gates, born without a face

One motive no hope ah, born without a face

Walk unseen past tha graves an tha gates, born without a face

One motive no hope ah, born without a face

 

You say fortify, reaction, you divide

And you say fortify, reaction, reaction

And you say fortify, reaction, reaction

You say fortify, reaction, you divide

 

 

Wind Below

 

Flip this capital eclipse

Tha vocal tone has got 'em sweatin' their own apocalypse

Yes, rebel of tha grains stand masterless

Tha masked ones cap one

NAFTA comin' with tha new disaster

And yes we in wit tha wind an tha plan de Ayala kin

Are comin' back around again

Tha slave driver saliva, one night power turns

Them devils mouths dry, now Mexico burns

So here they come one by one them killers of the new frontier

Occupy, causin' fear, come on

Wit the wind below           \

We in wit the wind below     | Right channel

Wit the wind below           /

 

Flip this capital eclipse

Them bury life wit IMF shifts, and poison lips

Yo they talk it, while slicin' our veins yo so mark it

From the FINCAS overseers, to them vultures playin' markets

She ain't got nothin' but weapon and shawl

She is Chol, Tzotzil, Tojolobal, Tzeltal

The tools are her tools, Ejidos and ovaries

She once suffocated, now through a barrel she breathes

She is the wind below    \

The wind below           | Right channel

She is the wind below    /

 

(Guitar solo)

 

And all the shareholders gonna flex, and try ta annex the truth

While the new trust is gonna flex, and cast their image in you

Yeah all the shareholders gonna flex, and try ta annex the truth

And while the new trust tries ta flex, and cast their image in you

And GE is gonna flex and try and annex the truth

And NBC is gonna flex and cast their image in you

And Disney bought the fantasies and piles of eyes

And ABC's new thrill rides of trials and lies

And while the gut eaters strain to pull the mud from their mouths

They force our ears to go deaf to the screams in the south

Yeah!

But we in wit the wind below!

But we in wit the wind below!

But we in wit the wind below!

 

Roll Right

Lick off the shot my stories shock ya like Ellison

Main line adrenaline Gaza to Tienanmen

From the basement I'm dwellin' in

I cock back tha sling to stone a settler

And breaks him off clean, call me the upsetter

Here comes the hands on the leashes

The cross, the capital, the pale families, the fear and the mouthpieces

The single sista lynch

The cell doors crash

And the master's drums echo, echo, echo, echo, echo, echo

Roll right! Roll call!

But now we're alright, we're all calm!

Roll right! Roll call!

And now we're alright, we're all calm!

 

This hits like fists bomb with the left and don't miss

With the sickest stilo I spark fear like pigs in the park

Head crack, I hijack the papers

The vapors caught fire up in your mind

Come back rewind one time

Here comes the hands on the leashes

The cross, the capital, the pale families, the fear and the mouthpieces

The single sista lynch

The cell doors crash

And the master's drums echo, echo, echo, echo, echo, echo

Roll right! Roll call!

But now we're alright, we're all calm!

Roll right! Roll call!

 

We gotta take 'em to tha seventh level

We gotta take 'em to tha seventh level

For their lives and my lives were never settled

Come on, don't freeze when zero hour comes

Come on, come on, don't freeze when zero hour comes

Come on

 

Send 'em to tha seventh level!

Send 'em to tha seventh level!

Send 'em to tha seventh level!

Send 'em to tha seventh level!

For their lives and my lives were never settled

 

 

Year of Tha Boomerang

 

Tha sistas are in so check the front line

Seems I spent the '80s in the Haiti state of mind

Cast me into classes for electro shock

Straight incarcerated, the curriculum's a cell block

I'm swimmin' in half truths and it makes me wanna spit

Instructor come separate the healthy from tha sick

Ya weigh me on a scale, smellin' burnt skin

It's dark now in Dachau and I'm screamin' from within

'Cause I'm cell locked in tha doctrines of tha right

Enslaved by dogma, talk about my birthrights

Yet at every turn I'm runnin' into hell's gates

So I grip tha cannon like Fanon an pass tha shells to my classmates

Aw, power to tha people

'Cause tha bosses right ta live is mine ta die

So I'm goin' out heavy sorta like Mount Tai

Wit tha five centuries of penitentiary so let tha guilty hang

In tha year of tha boomerang

 

I got no property but yo I'm a piece of it

So let tha guilty hang

I got no property but yo I'm a piece of it

In the year of tha boomerang

I got no property but yo I'm a piece of it

So let tha guilty hang

I got no property but yo I'm a piece of it

In the year of tha boomerang

 

Yeah!

Now it's upon you!

Now it's upon you!

 

Tha sistas are in so check the front line

Seems I spent the '80s in the Haiti state of mind

Cast me into classes for electro shock

Straight incarcerated, the curriculum's a cell block

Swimmin' in half truths and it makes me wanna spit

Instructor come separate the healthy from tha sick

Ya weigh me on a scale, I'm smellin' burnt skin

It's dark now in Dachau and I'm screamin' from within

'Cause I'm cell locked in tha doctrines of tha right

Enslaved by dogma, talk about my birthrights

Yet at every turn I'm runnin' into hell's gates

So I grip tha cannon like Fanon an pass tha shells to my classmates

Aw, power to tha people, yeah, yeah

Tha bosses right ta live is mine ta die

I'm goin' out heavy sorta like Mount Tai

Wit tha five centuries of penitentiary so let tha guilty hang

In tha year of tha boomerang

 

I got no property but yo I'm a piece of it

So let tha guilty hang

I got no property but yo I'm a piece of it

Uh! In the year of tha boomerang

I got no property but yo I'm a piece of it

So let tha guilty hang

I got no property but yo I'm a piece of it

In the year of tha boomerang

 

Yeah!

Now it's upon you!

Now it's upon you!

You! You! You! You! You! You! You! You!

 

Yeah!
