Lyric Township Rebellion
Rebel, rebel and yell
Cause our people still dwell in hell
Locked in a cell
Yes, the structure s a cell
Mad is the story I tell
How long can we wait?
Come on, seein what s at stake
Action for reaction
If your mind s in a somewhat complacent state
Get a check up
This is a stick up
Our freedom or your life
Lord, I wish I could be peacful
But there can be no sequel
Now freedom must be fundamental
In Johannesburg or South Central
On the mic, cause someone should tell em
To kick in the township rebellion
Yeah, what about that sucker?
Yeah, so you thought you could get with the hardlines
That fill your mind
Thoughts, battles fought
And lessons taught
Yes I ll display the fitness
And flip like a gymnast
Raise my fist and resist
Asleep, though we stand in the midst
Of the war
Gotta get mine
Gotta get more
Keepin the mic warm against the norm
Cause what does it offer me?
I think often it s nothin but a coffin
Gotta get wreck
Till our necks never swing on a rope
>From here to the cape of no hope
Now freedom must be fundamental
In Johannesburg or South Central
On the mic, cause someone should tell em
To kick in the township rebellion
Why stand on a silent platform?
Fight the war, fuck the norm (4 times)
(Guitar solo)
Why stand on a silent platform?
Fight the war, fuck the norm (4 times)
What s it gonna take?
Euuurrrggghhhhh!
Shackle their minds when they re bent on the cross
When ignorance reigns, life is lost
Shackle their minds when they re left on the cross
When ignorance reigns, life is lost
Shackled our minds when we re bent on the cross
When ignorance reigns, life is lost
Shackled our minds when we re left on the cross
When ignorance reigns, life is lost, lost, lost!
Shackle your minds and you re left on the cross!
When ignorance reigns, life is lost!
Just shackle your minds when you re bent on the cross!
When ignorance reigns, life is lost, lost!
