Well I got things to do/ and people got things to say.
Said I got work to do/ and the people find time to play.
Babylon system is stuck in a slow modem/
why yall persisting to fuck with the promoe when. No rapper that rise against me shall ever prosper/
rhymes written in the bible, revolutionary rasta. Take an eye for an eye and a toth for a tooth/
I tell a lie for a lie and a truth for a truth. I spit a line after line over loop after loop/
to make your mind intertwine with brain food at the root. Cus we all gotta eat but I ain't sellin' my soul/
cus man can't live by them belly alone. I'm hard to reach trust no cellular phones/
cus the government agents wanna follow we 'round. Electronic transmittors picked up by satelites/
I'm writing rhymes in a room lit up by candle lights. And I'm spittin... in the wind, of changin' times/
in the name of unchaining minds... so
 
Chorus:
All of a sudden when you sick/ off all of that government music.
Just call and I'll come with that new shit/ just call if you love revolutions.
Call on this sub level nuisance/ ball you could bloody well lose it.
Come on call if you run with a crew which/ is armed with a gun and a full clip.
 
Pointed at the business give me points and tour support/
and creative control or end up in the war report. Us against them David versus Goliath/
I'm bustin' at them aim at jerks with cold fire. Old pirates rob I of my songs of freedom/
songs that we've done Promoe comes from Sweden. Needn't no further introduction/
in a world of wack music my shit serve as interruptions short breaks from a reality that's really unreal/
where record companies want you to sign a dumb deal. Then they're swallowing your following like a bottle in a fridge/
they suck you dry and leave your body in a ditch. They steal your golden days then when you're old and grey/
they done found new blood to mold and clay. And if you're bold and play make sure you read the terms/
a life long contract till you feed the worms... but,
 
Chorus 
 
Yo you can call me on the 1-800 hotline/
listen closely go out and cop mine. Or you the type to drop dimes and call the cops? fine/
bring your glocks, nines ain't nothing can stop mine. Though life is one big road with alot of stop signs/
and I carry a big load as long as I rock rhymes. I do not mind, the bullshit: behind/
love will conquer all evil. It's easier for Heavy D to enter through the eye of a needle/
than for the government to be buying my people. Your smile is deceitful, plastic, colgate white/
get it smashed if your flow ain't tight. Now if that happen to me I'd spit blood on the tracks/
till it's cluttered with facts and women cuddle the wax. Love to the max physical and spiritual/
natural, lyrical miracle... yo,
 
Chorus
 
Well I got things to do/ and people got things to say
Said I got work to do/ and the people find time to play...
