Album: Casual Brothers EP
Track: A1
Author: Mind-Mined, Cosmic

Verse I:
what are you afraid of? what do you think I'm made of?
I'm just flesh and blood, just like your beloved mayor
you spit hate on me 'cause I express my views,
arrest my crew 'cause we disrespected you, but
we never elected you, never selected you
to run our lives and choose what direction to move
you and yours, practice active abusement
act as friends and distract us with illusions
class us as stupid; what, do you think we're blind?
we don't need a stick to find all the lies that lies behind
they erase my life if I'm not keeping the pace of time
just like my future is figured out by amazing masterminds
I'm the last to sign, you can't buy me to be quiet
even though you got guns and copyright on being violent
WHAT you expect me to do, standin' still?
who protects us from you when you plan to kill?

Chorus:
(Ya) what are the leaders afraid of?
truths and rights, I tell you straight up
so listen up it's time we brake up
from slavery so tear the chains up (what?)

what are the leaders afraid of? (afraid of)
truths and rights, I tell you straight up (straight up)
so listen up it's time we wake up (wake up)
and see the lies that they're make up

what are you afraid of? afraid of? what are you afraid of?

(John F Kennedy)
"We have commited all the power of the federal government,
to ensure respect, obedience of court decisions
and the law of the land"

Verse II:
yo ey, what are you afraid of? it's you that rape us
that's why we leave your buildings and trains covered in spraydust
blame us for making violent tracks,
inspiring cats to give you higher crime stats
but tell me how is that supposed to happen
it's not us that walk around these evil streets pistolpackin'
and it's not we that believe that the cops
do their job for the best of the people, and that we need that
don't wanna see that, that's why you're still asleep
that's why you killin' me, that's why you makin' a million a week
that's why money is the most powerful weapon,
that's why you step on us before asking any questions
that's why graffiti is organized crime,
that's why the cops stalk writers nighttime
and that's why I'm still spittin', to say that I trust none
that's why me and P got stopped by Canadian customs

Chorus:
(Ya) what are the leaders afraid of?
truths and rights, I tell you straight up
so listen up it's time we brake up
from slavery so tear the chains up (what?)

what are the leaders afraid of? (afraid of)
truths and rights, I tell you straight up (straight up)
so listen up it's time we wake up (wake up)
and see the lies that they're make up


what are you afraid of? what are you afraid of?

***short guitar solo***

Chorus:
what are the leaders afraid of?
truths and rights, I tell you straight up
so listen up it's time we brake up
from slavery so tear the chains up (what?)

(Yo) what are the leaders afraid of? (afraid of)
truths and rights, I tell you straight up (straight up)
so listen up it's time we wake up (wake up)
and see the lies that they're make up

Verse III:
what are you afraid of? what do you think I'm made of?
to you I'm just a number, easy to put the blame on
and shame on us if we stand out from your standards
you want us all in handcuffs, answering the right answers
makin' the right music, eatin' the right food
behave a certain way with the right attitude
read the right books, watch the right TV-shows
supportin' the right crooks by giving the right voteS, what?
but we no mix up with no politrix,
we no suckin' dicks on leaders
only interested in where the dollar IS, yo yo
kids keep on holler this, life is eternal
yo Embee it's time we stoppin' this
***"stoppin' this" echoing***
