"Wastelands" This is war with no weapons Marching with no stepping Murder with no k**ing Illing every direction First, no sequel Do the math, No equal John with no Yoko More power, less people And no I'm not afraid of that Every rap is made in fact To act as a delayed attack Every phrase a razor blade That's saved until they play it back To slay and leave 'em laying on the pavement Bang Fade to black In the wastelands of today When there's nothing left to lose And and there's nothing more to take But you force yourself to choose In the wastelands of today When tomorrow disappears When the future slips away And your hope turns into fear In the wastelands of today Roll credits, to get it The show's done They're talking for just talking But meaning they got none None of 'em come proper They talk like a shotgun But how many got bred with integrity Not one So no, I'm not afraid to see these s**ers hold a blade to me Ain't a way to shake the ground I built before you came to be Take it how you take it, I'm the opposite of vacancy And this is not negotiation, y'all can hate and And wait and see... In the wastelands of today When there's nothing left to lose And and there's nothing more to take But you force yourself to choose In the wastelands of today When tomorrow disappears When the future slips away And your hope turns into fear And your hope turns into fear In the wastelands of today! In the wastelands of today When there's nothing left to lose And and there's nothing more to take But you force yourself to choose In the wastelands of today When tomorrow disappears When the future slips away And your hope turns into fear And your hope turns into fear In the wastelands of today! In the wastelands of today! In the wastelands of today!
