Lyrics

Hypno
If you don't trust your government, say "ho!" (ho)
I bet you'll know when they start fuckin' with your dough (hell no!)
If you're attached to what they sold you, let it go (let 'em know)
but Nyambez and Hyp are with ya', fa sho'!
So I'm speaking from a heart that ain't bleedin'
and keep it grounded by the pulse of the hood, not for a weekend all season, every breath I'm breathin',
so if you with it, straighten your spine
and GET YO' ASS OVER HERE ON THIS SIDE OF THE LINE.

Nyambezi
I'm a Liberal, Progressive and Proud- deal with it!
Radical, in fact, if you want to get real with it
WE stand, for Justice, Truth and Freedom
THEY hate the people, the laws, and don't need 'em!
The whole world's paying the price
every minute they're in power be a roll of the dice,
in a zero-sum game, the stakes are mad high,
if their agenda prevails, a lot of suckas going bye bye..

We're the Good Guys, we've taken all that we can stand
We're officially drawing a Line In the Sand
from this point, we strike back, we fight back!
Not another inch given, it be's like that!
Yo- your dirty tactics threw salt in the game
you really don't want us to respond the same
and you should thank God that we ain't ruthless,
but the truth is, if it comes down to it, we can DO this!

Culture of Life? Bullshit! Perpetual war
EXECUTIONS are what they believe in, and more
bullets for judges and doctors at abortion clinics
disturbed, hypocritical, more than cynics
Tell me: what do you think JESUS has to say
when HE sees Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo Bay?
Only life that they care about, is the kind
being lived by a being not possessing a mind!
"ownership society"? Pure fabrication;
when you hear it, think "plantation"
with ole' Massa as the Corporation
house niggas and field hands be nine tenths of the population,
NO security, NO privacy
NO job, NO way to start again, NO survivin' the
onslaught (where corporate controlled assailants)
keep you stupid, sick, starved and under surveillance!!
