Prodigy Of Mobb Deep - Tyranny lyrics

[Intro] No, this is not a Hollywood blockbuster Planes crashing into these towers are real And these buildings crash to the ground Including one that wasn't hit by anything at all The American population was terrorized, hypnotized, and traumatized By repetitive showings of the devastation With the media repeating, over and over That it was a terrorist attack Yeah-yeah, yeah [Verse 1] My confidence is up, I believe with all my soul I could do anything that I put my heart into I spend all of my time focused in the lab Comin' up with these songs, masterin' my craft 'Cause I'ma need that boat or one of them aircrafts God gave me a life and I'ma live this sh** So, wa**up? Don't get your head bust up You're in my way, young brother Get out my way, young brother Or I'ma run you down You should have accepted my offer Brush me off like it's nothin' I understand, no it's okay Run along now, you interrupting The illest rapper still active Move dope, then all of my past sh** I was just a boy, I was only 19 But by mind be on some old lex sh** [Hook] Race don't matter Your faith don't matter The enemy is government tyranny All that other sh** don't matter [Verse 2] My confidence like armor I know with all my being That I coul do anything I just work hard and I achieve it Now watch me create money For the next 300 years So my great grand kids'll eat food Off of these words I'm saying here Yeah, I wrote this with you in mind I'm so far ahead of my time My body will never catch up to where my brain is at Sometime I gotta slow down and pace myself I'm going too much over ya'll head My school of thought like the Essenes And some secrets are best kept sacred It's one big religious war with these old books Who's wrong or right, who cares? Wake up, they diverting our attention From what's really going on right here, right now Toxic food, it's causing cancer, you don't have to smoke Toxic politicians, the system is rigged but go 'head and vote [Hook] Race don't matter Your faith don't matter The enemy is government tyranny All that other sh** don't matter You wish, don't matter You broke, don't matter The enemy, they threaten our liberties All that other sh** don't matter [Outro] This time, vote like your whole world depended on it
