lyrics

2017!
So many crazy things!


I remember 2017 what happened
Beast try to divide us but we ain’t letting that happen
Actually we coming together stronger than ever
And these California fires seems like they control the weather
Peace to my people who lost their homes in the flames
And everyone who came together since the very day
We got a racist, sexist, trans/homo/xenophobic
egomaniac lunatic sitting in the office oval
But the people answered quick, fast led by the women
The woman’s march, people were in the street by the millions
And Trump tried to ban Muslim’s from traveling
So we shut down LAX, airports and battled him
The power of the people going viral
Beast drowing in their own fucking spiral
They try to push lies as alternative facts
But really it’s fake news that they’re spreading in fact
Lotta racist motherfuckers got knocked the fuck out
Kim Jon Un’s Brother got snuffed the fuck out
Peace to my people who repping for Standing Rock
Did what we could know that flame ain’t blowing out
Cause the KXL pipeline spilled that oil
And Embridge got plans that protectors gonna foil
Moonlight shining on La La Land Oscar Night
WikiLeaks leaks CIA Documents for the fight
Attacks in London, Russia, Syria, Vegas and in New York
But the biggest terrorist attacks are from US armed forces
Like when they dropped the Mother of All Bombs
Or United and the Asian doctor violently dragged off
Bill O Riley, Fired, good riddance for sure
And Weinstein is one so many sex predators
Power to empowered women all over the planet
Who stepped forward, said “Me Too”, I can’t stand it
Anymore, So the feminine in the core
Or the living being we living on ending a war
And how the Navy gonna let a ship crash into one of them
While North Korea saying come try usm we got warheads,
And rest in peace to people who killed up in Charlottesville
Blood spilled, you driving a car into people chil-
Dren, Filled me with dread,
Fuck outta with your confederate statues and discount tiki torches,
Kathy Griffin and Eminem chopped the head off of Trump
And a Congressional Baseball practice shot the fuck up
What the fuck really happened in Las Vegas?
The story got so many holes it’s missing mad pages
Crazy ass shit tho, attack on the people
And Hurricane Maria ran through Puerto Rico
Not to mention Harvey in Houston
Irma in Florida
And apocalyptic fires that’s burning in California
And Neutron stars colliding those years ago
That Flood in Africa That Earthquake in Mexico
iPhone ten
the Last Jedi is Dead
Cause the power is inside of everyone’s heart and head

The internet belongs to the people
Net neutrality, let’s keep it free and equal
And everyone got Bitcoin on the brain now
Trying to make a million off that cryptocurrency style
Get Out, classic race relations horror flick
Man of the Year, Salute Colin Kaepernick
And for one week, everyone took a knee
Then they bowed to the dollar, NFL owners are weak
Creeps, bowing to corporate greed
People tripping on the anthem man you fucking sheep
Someone turned Hollywood to Hollyweed
And this the part of the song where I’m saying rest in peace
Rest in peace, everybody Rest in Peace
Death mask off, lie and rest in peace
Rest in peace, people rest in peace
Your somewhere else now, your energy’s released
To the core of the Daptone family
To the queen Sharon Jones
To the King Charles Bradley
The World’s Going Up in Flames
I’m going through Change, 100 Nights, 100 days
Freefalling like the man Tom Petty
Into the great wide open now, don’t have to live like a refugee
Chris Cornell went to that Black Hole Sun
And in the end it doesn’t even matter Chester Bennington
Gregg Almann, God of the Almann Brothers
And Bill Paxton (GAME OVER MAN, GAME OVER!)
And Darkness fell on Charlie Murphy
To The Father of Rock N Roll, Jonny B Goode, Chuck Berry
Dennis Banks, American Indian
Movement, leader of Wounded Knee resistance
Girl power go to Mary Tyler Moore
Not to mention James Bond II Roger Moore
Humor for human rights soldier Dick Gregory
And everybody killed at the hands of violent police
I make your mouth piece obese like Della Reese
Rest in peace Prodigy Fist Up For Mobb Deep
Malcolm Young’s on a highway to hell
Charles Manson’s probably heading somewhere that way as well
The Raging Bull from the Bronx Jake LaMotta
And Adam West, Batman, Duh Duh Duh Duh Duh Duh Duh Duh Dut
Erica Garner, Daughter of Eric Garner
Ganja K was Project Blowed Hardest
Bumping the Coup all day for Pam The Funkstress
Got the Deacon Blues for Walter Becker, Steely Dan’s guitarist
The next episode sampled David Axelrod
Zulu Nation Grandmaster TC Izlam
Fats Domino, Junie Morison
Al Jerreau and the funky drummer Clyde Stubblefield
All the people shot up in Las Vegas,
In that church and every shooting everywhere bullets were blazing
Those killed from disasters and war
And everybody killed from attacks on the poor
In the end there’s so many more to name
So I’m sending up my voice for your undying flame
Rest in peace, everybody Rest in Peace
Death mask off, lie and rest in peace
Rest in peace, people rest in peace
Your somewhere else now, your energy is free
