I love family
and'cause family brings inspirations
One love to you and peace to all the nations
Aztlan the puerto rican and jamaican
The african the maori kouri and the haitian
On the chocolate reservation
Iand'll take a hit and then pass the information
To the left hand side and
Keep providinand' pride and
Sustenance and guidance
Mass hysteria fools breaking down the barrier
Militant cliques big up the area
Put your fist in the air now,
Show me that cha care now
And that cha really know how
Donand't get thee behind me satan
Iand'll keep thee in front so i can kick thee in the ass and
Assassinate all your wicked inventions
Your new world order and your global intentions
Not to mention the department of corrections
Makinand' money off of people in detention
Doinand' time for possessions
Countinand' the days in the dark they buildinand' up aggressins
Progressions all the dirty lessons
In the belly of the beast only god hears confessions
Geronimo prattand's still sittinand' in the cellar
Done as many years as they did mandela
Parole board wanted to know are you remorseful
How could i be becouse i didnand't do the crime yo
Yand'alls the motha fuckaand's thatand's guilty
Lockinand' me in solitary eight years of filthy
Kill the messanger, you canand't kill the message
Yo iand'm bringinand' food for the masses
(chorus)
For the masses for the masses
Mental food food for the masses
For the masses for the masses for the true for the true
For the masses for the masses
Mental food food for the masses
For the masses for the masses for the true for the true
So letand's eat have a seat
Call the maitre dand'
Commencinand' with the riddim
I get open on the beat
Let and'em say what they say about the way that we be
Itand's the year two triple o
They canand't stop we
Awand'ight, sellassie i the book unfolds
I write and'cause half the story has never been told so
No one can stop it the whole worldand's droppin out the socket
Blowinand' up, like nasa when i rock it
The high tech ways of the civilized man
Canand't stand my people but ya love the sun tan
Fly the space shuttle like dancer and prancer
You nuke the north pole now you got skin cancer
The answer you see iand'm fly like lufthansa
You can valujet but you takinand' big chances
On crashes. change your name like cassius
The classes be making food for the masses
Then shift to a speed thatand's common for the listeners
Mcand's and wanna be street politicians
In competition with the envious visions
They chasinand' paper dollars to a pop chart prison
But listen this isnand't me against you
and'cause the whole worldand's checking out the things that we do
Ya sold your soul to the saint ideand's brew
Thatand's awand'ight i like the sprite in you
(chorus)
