* send corrections to the typist
Ha sistas are in so check the front line
Seems I spent the `80s in the Haiti state of mind
Cast me into classes for electro shock
Straight incarcerated, the curriculum`s a cell block
I`m swimmin` in half truths and it makes me wanna spit
Instructor come separate the healthy from tha sick
Ya weigh me on a scale, smellin` burnt skin
It`s dark now in Dachau and I`m screamin` from within
`Cause I`m cell locked in tha doctrines of tha right
Enslaved by dogma, talk about my birthrights
Yet at every turn I`m runnin` into hell`s gates
So I grip tha cannon like Fanon an pass tha shells to my classmates
Aw, power to tha people
`Cause tha bosses right ta live is mine ta die
So I`m goin` out heavy sorta like Mount Tai
Wit tha five centuries of penitentiary so let tha guilty hang
In tha year of tha boomerang
(chorus x4)
I got no property but yo I`m a piece of it
So let tha guilty hang
yeah
now its upon you
now its upon you
Tha sistas are in so check the front line
Seems I spent the `80s in the Haiti state of mind
