what's the noise without silence, plus vs the minus
at 30 thousand feet, the flight vs the pilot
chessboard piece, the king vs the highness

as long as these pawns won't rage and riot
drugstore supplier vs aids survivor
blacked-out, cottonmouth, all sick and highed-up

powerless submission vs fists that rise up
viva la revolucion vs the kaizer
oh %#@!, the shiesse, peace vs the crisis

the fool vs the genius, both seem divisive
rich man communist vs the poor righteous
anyone can pull wool when sheep ain't conscious

fake-ass crooks in all shapes and all sizes
thug life vs media corporate sponsors
yo how's that different than you vs your conscience?

similar, particular to everything - god bless!

"It's a call to the guns, it's the warrior's drum
It's the ^!$$%s I love like the water and sun

It's the killers in some, not the lovers in none
It's all versus the one..."


chemical dependency, anything feel-good
overdose dope in quantities for the hood
vs the corporation enslaving us by the block

padlock, nonstop, still killin us like they should
recognize riots, fire and gun violence
protest massacres vs the hush quiet

turn the other cheek, stay weak and remain silent
nothing gonna happen if half of us play dying
the other half dead, right place and bad timing

vs the right time, wrong place to defy tyrants
vs the white lies we sell with a white promise
and a price tag matchin the honesty inside us

culture is a drag, especially when mentally
freedom is in the bag, vs the hypocrisy
doggin the tail wag, vs the first minute

we stray or stay stag, guilty or stay innocent...

(hook)


the conflict has begun, the same time
that any conversation is done, the same time

that the 1st confrontation is blood, the same way
that many who survive it become the slave trade
lost innocence vs the found filthy

camoflauge-clad chameleon, come kill me
genitals for burial, none of em love really
when the opposite of love leaves everyone fear city

panic with insanity, tragically mad silly
mannequins of agony, broken with no feelings
waterboard torture vs interrogations

where water is the source of you drowning in suffocation
the snitch or the witness, always the same difference
the same consequences for both, the same instance

the same cover-up in a cloak, the same dagger
in the back of any slave who exposes the same master...
