Oktober - P.T.S. lyrics

[Intro: Sample from [?] and Mic-O] Seriously. Because I've talked to some of the jivest n***as you ever met. No, I'm serious. And they insult me to think I don't know what a revolutionary is. They think I don't know what a Contra is. Them think I don't what strategies and tactics is. They think I don't know what love is, what Black Power is [Mic-O] Yo, it's some f**ed up times we living in. (No doubt, no doubt). But we're doing the best we can to survive. Pimping the system. Yo [Hook 1: L.I.F.E. Long and (Oktober)] Pimp the system, pimp the system Educate against lies, free your mind Pimp the system, pimp the system (We gots to realize that they not on our side) Pimp the system, pimp the system Got to revolutionize, keep it organized Pimp the system, pimp the system (If we don't win with peace signs, we co*k back the 9) [Verse 1: L.I.F.E. Long] Take back the j**els stolen from sacred lands Cultures been stripped, rearranged by evil man's hands Satan's ultimate plan: make original people Inferior, unequal until there's one's race dominant The rest feeble, set up to serve Which cla** you in? Mine's not high cla**, middle, low Just hanging from my building, brothers banging Slanging, holding forks in every urban area Crime's the most played sport [Verse 2: Oktober] There's nothing truer than this Breaking loose the grip of Lucifer's fist Crucifixes to three sixes, I'm trying to free sisters From images and video remixes Bless the ears of my listeners for their attention Mislead minds to correct direction Follow me. If you wondering what I honestly think: Manipulate the system how we properly pimp Yeah [Hook 1: L.I.F.E. Long and (Oktober)] Pimp the system, pimp the system Educate against lies, free your mind Pimp the system, pimp the system (We gots to realize that they not on our side) Pimp the system, pimp the system Got to revolutionize, keep it organized Pimp the system, pimp the system (If we don't win with peace signs, we co*k back the 9) [Verse 3: L.I.F.E. Long] (Yo, so how we gonna take control?) Do for self, self-sufficient protect the old Ancient ways of thinking activate your movements, unfold I got ideas, so I manifest goals, represent for all My souls in the atmosphere Lost for pres, then y'all representation is definitely here Motivation for the everyday: stay focused, give praise Thanks for my creation, open eyes, fists raised It's been a long time fighting for freedom For one nation under the Sun and divine presence Combine King plus Garvey's dream, add the sum Jah bless us every day while questing for the next lesson A nightmare for American Dream [Verse 4: Oktober] Bad business. Peace and prosperity is what my mission is But violent outcomes I did, so vision Because Wall Street buy and sell shares of prisons Talking high-cla**, capitalist-style pimping Compared myself to presidents. I was thinking I free slaves like Lincoln, throw peace signs like Nixon Smoke trees like Clinton (What's the difference?) Nothing except the melanin under out skin tone My word is the antidote for Ignorance Syndrome Empires collapse. You can say that you been told Digging through the rubbish, I'ma build my own Yeah [Hook 2: L.I.F.E. Long and (Oktober)] Pimp the system, pimp the system Get the money, don't run, raise your guns Pimp the system, pimp the system (It's about where you at and where you come from) Pimp the system, pimp the system Do what you got to do to survive, stay life Pimp the system, pimp the system (We make the system work for us. That's how we rise) [Outro (Overlapped with Hook): L.I.F.E. Long and Oktober] Oktober: No doubt. Oktober, L.I.F.E. Long, and Beyond L.I.F.E. Long: It's like that, you nah'mean? Free all political prisoners. Of course we ‘bout to take it over like that. Pimp the system. Word. Get them before they get us. It's like that, y'all Oktober: Pimp them pigs. Pimp them pigs
