Township Rebellion (Demo)
Rebel, rebel and yell
'Cause our people still dwell in hell
Locked in a cell, yes, the structure's a cell
Mad is the story I tell, how long can we wait?
Come on, seein' what's at stake
Action for reaction
If your mind's in a somewhat complacent state
Get a check up, this is a stick up
Our freedom or your life
Lord, I wish I could be peaceful but there can be no sequel
Now freedom must be fundamental
In Johannesburg or South Central
On the mic 'cause someone should tell 'em
To kick in the township rebellion
Yeah, what about that sucker?
Yeah, so you thought you could
Get with the hard lines that fill your mind, thoughts
Battles fought and lessons taught
Yeah, I'll display the fitness
Then flip like a gymnast
'Cause one after one
Rob, chop and line after line
You're not gonna test of the line
Your style is like envy mine
Stuck in '89
Yes in decline
I'm wearing no blind
Come to get some og '91
No freedom
Get the land of the free
If you see it, then tell me
Now freedom is fundamental
In Johannesburg or South Central
On the mic 'cause someone should tell 'em
To kick in the township rebellion
Why stand on a silent platform?
Fight the war, fuck the norm
Why stand on a silent platform?
Fight the war, fuck the norm
Why stand on a silent platform?
Fight the war, fuck the norm
Why stand on a silent platform?
Fight the war, fuck the norm, come on!
Why stand on a silent platform?
Fight the war, fuck the norm
Why stand on a silent platform?
Fight the war, fuck the norm
Why stand on a silent platform?
Fight the war, fuck the norm
Why stand on a silent platform?
Fight the war, fuck the norm
What's it gonna take before we take action?
Uh, come on! Yeah
Ignorance reigns and life is lost (come on)
Ignorance reigns and life is lost (come on)
Ignorance reigns and life is lost (come on)
Why stand on a silent platform?
Fight the war, fuck the norm
Why stand on a silent platform?
Fight the war, fuck the norm
Why stand on a silent platform?
Fight the war, fuck the norm
Why stand on a silent platform?
Fight the war, fuck the norm
'Cause our people still dwell in hell
Locked in a cell, yes, the structure's a cell
Mad is the story I tell, how long can we wait?
Come on, seein' what's at stake
