Dead Prez - $timulus Plan lyrics

[CHORUS] You should go go Feed your marrow Then the Afro Then the Euro Anything For that green It's a scam It's a scheme (clips from news, legislators) Four or five dollar bills [?] I've been in the same situation Heartbeat racing You come up but you don't eat I done had to sleep in a train station Going stop to stop But no place to be Paperchasin' Filling out applications For weeks Just tryin' to get up on my feet But they ain't hiring So a n***a's forced to resort to the streets Just to make ends meet It's called survival The struggle continues If it offends you, let me remind you We all have instincts to do what we have to, To make it through, and this drive is primal Whether you at MickeyD's takin' an order Or comin' from Florida transportin' a quarter Or on a corner We all got needs I gotta feed my son He gotta feed his daughter Naw, I ain't no capitalist-exploiter But I know the rules of supply and demand Whoever controls the product Controls the supply And, hey, well that's the law of the land Make your own stimulus plan (more) Don't ever think slavery was just about race Slavery was about money They say the USA was founded on freedom But slavery built this country Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, Hamilton, Jackson, Grant Were all slaveowners And even today From Clinton to Bush They runnin' the same game on us They so-called war on terror Is just a ploy to get more cheddar Dinero, the root of all evil They come in bombin', shootin', exploitin' people And call it freedom It's a cold game And it's the same from the top of the food chain All the way down to the little homie in the street gangs Slangin' c**aine, it's how they do thangs It's the American way Imperialism, have it your way Whatever it takes Whoever gets f**ed in the process, that's okay That's how they play So you can't blame us Them dead white men on that paper ain't us We still gotta hustle for the benefits, man My grind is my stimulus plan...
