[Verse 1]
I never cut the ugly, raped my mother
Deceived my sister, separated my brother
Murdered my children, hung my father
Now they want me to rock the coat, the fuck why bother
Seen their commercials for the Army or whatever
Picture me givin' a damn I said "Never"
My mind's too sharp, my brain's to clever
My spine is too strong, every line pulls your leather
Limitless rhymes for the indiginious, the remedy
Plot: Get my money like the Kennedy's
Flip it, put 'em in stocks, collect enimities
Rock, Roll, behold my epiphanies
And read 'em and weep, heat 'em I beat 'em to sleep
Mislead 'em to we 'Even Steven', defeat 'em with freedom of speech
And let 'em know that I'm the mothafuckin firestarter
Piss on the Constitution, then burn the Magna Carta
[Chorus]
All I know is what I feel
Deceive my eyes and distort what's real
Only truth will set you free
I'd rather die on my feet, than to live on my knees
[Verse 2]
We dying over black gold, they harvest in the sand
President's livin' marvelous, they starvin' in Sudan
It's obvious who walk a blind path to oblivion
The Book Of Judges read the scriptures unlike Gideon
Light my fire, start my engine
When Pharoahe becomes Moses it's medicine for religions
A veteran with the mic bringin' prophecies, youthful wishin
Motivational verses on an adverse condition
Coded the mainframe, I seen the names man
They watch you from the streetlights, you and your main man
The barcode around your neck, seen as your main brand
You're lost in a strange land, no thoughts of a game plan
[Chorus]
All I know is what I feel
Deceive my eyes and distort what's real
Only truth will set you free
I'd rather die on my feet, than to live on my knees
[Outro]
Piss on the constitution, then burn the Magna Carta
Piss on the constitution, then burn the Magna Carta
Piss on the constitution, then burn the Magna Carta
Piss on the constitution, then burn the Magna Carta
Piss on the constitution, then burn the Magna Carta
Piss on the constitution, then burn the Magna Carta
Piss on the constitution, then burn the Magna Carta
Piss on the constitution, then burn the Magna Carta (fade out)
