Dead Prez - “Politrikkks” Dead Prez lyrics

[Intro] You already know what time it is Dead... prez... dot... com Information news [Verse 1: stic.man] Everywhere we go Every day on TV They be talking about Who you gonna vote for You got a black man running But I wonder if he get in Who he gonna open up the door for? I don't wanna to discourage my folk I believe in hope I just want us to want more Politics is a game How they keep us contained There gotta be more that we could hope for Democrats and Republicans Just 2 sides of the same coin Either way, it's still white power It's the same system Just changed form You wanna vote? please do! Cast your ballot, let your voice be heard But what I do want to say is After the election You'll see Mark my words [Hook] It's politic time again It's politrick time again It's politic time again It's politrick time again Shoot the messenger! [Verse 2: M-1] This is the most important election of all time The government's committing the biggest of all crimes These bullsh** politicians say they speaking for the people Before they ran for office, they were sh**ting on the people Billion dollar campaigns Trillion dollar bailout Anybody know the definition of a sell-out? huh? And if Obama win, he wouldn't be the first black Take your 2 dollar bill and turn it over to the back (you see? right there) But with the TV on, you only hearing they voice The system is broken, they trying to beat a dead horse Go ahead and vote for the lesser of two evils I plot, plan, and strategize with the poor people The middle cla** will say this opinion is irresponsible But if you ain't got no healthcare, they kickin' you out the hospital McKinney, Clemente, off in the Green Party No disrespect, we need a Red, Black, and Green Party Like Marcus Garvey's [Hook] Even if Obama wins Uncle Sam ain't my friend It's politrikkks time again It's bullsh** time again [Outro: Malcolm X] The time is on the side of the oppressed today; it's against the oppressor And truth is on the side of the oppressed today; it's against the oppressor You'll see it. You'll see terrorism...
