Chorus: 2x (first time a capella) Somebody scream bloody murder, inside of my head The exuctioner's plot controlled by the feds Take illegal action, they want mumia dead This nation of savages been trying to kill us for years [tragedy khadafi] Yo, federal indictment, militant mind enlightment Son, we outburst, in the court room, full of excitement Face the jury, thugged out, with blind fury They want us all under the jail, end of the story Brave and heartless, we can have a million marches But when you black you under attack, son regardless Live by the gun, dunn, and die by the gun And revolutionize minds until freedom come [black thought] Check it out, they wants och locked down boxed up in the ground It's war time now from how the sufferin sound We deep in the realm, the planet petrified overwhelmed We all stars livin life out on surveilance film New world law enforced, mind rape, cerebral holocaust No escape, fire for burn the execution date Shatter, we on the front lines prepare I want mumia out the cage the time for action is here [pharaohe monch] Yo, the attempted assassination of mumia jabal, they set'im up I come to find out, tupac they wet'im up Pharaohe, standin behind my fucking curtains With a double-barrle rehearsin Ready for war now for certain Uh, biological warfare suits Black gas masks, black boots, half-assed niggas become troops My dunns are doper warriors than ?? now Plenty thug niggas are fruity now Chorus: 2x [chuck d] ??? the illusion, cause i see my peoples losin The overall battle to keep republic rats from chosin Afterall, i feel the bruisin of the constitution When my back's against the wall, manifestin in their destiny Shit they just testin me, mumia's spirit blessin me No alibi, i know allah is not their alli I believe i can fly, but their type of freedom is a lie So fuck the government, c.i.a. and f.b.i. [last emperor] Shatan will destroy anything for the right price In a physical world one man cannot die twice To the spiritual world your soul cannot fly twice Yet could this be the second time they crucified christ? Ask ed asnor, the actor, after the execute'im There will be a peasant uprising like the french revolution In conclusion, if you detect evil Free the voice of the voiceless, defender of oppressed people [dead prez] I say, "fuck the police," cause they been killin us for years This ain't no free country, niggas get murdered for their ideas Free mumia means all africans let go Cause just livin in the ghetto puts you on death row You don't know? you seen how the tried to do assata Till some real niggas organized theyselves and went and got'er Lotta crackers verbalize if mumia dies, fire in the skies But only time'll tell the truth from the lies Chorus: 3x
