(Chorus)
Boom! The Elephant’s in the room, move motherfucker make room make room
Boom! The Elephant’s in the room, move motherfucker make room, huh (scratch noise)
Boom! The Elephant’s in the room, move motherfucker make room, make room (huh)
Boom! The Elephant’s in the room, motherfucker make room
(Verse 1)
Think of me as a heavy political topic
None of the big wigs can deal with or want to acknowledge (Yea)
They rather try to ignore the undeniable Truth
I’m a force; my voice is like a spore
Infects the mind inside plenty
Creating an army of people who are the
Unsettled, underpaid minimum wage, job delayed
Can’t afford to educate the
Majority far from priority citizens
Rebels in this hell we living in
But fuck giving in
We aint stir up the movement to lose so ya better make room
(Chorus)
Boom! The Elephant’s in the room, move motherfucker make room make room
Boom! The Elephant’s in the room, move motherfucker make room, huh (scratch noise)
Boom! The Elephant’s in the room, move motherfucker make room, make room (huh)
Boom! The Elephant’s in the room, motherfucker make room
(Verse 2)
They try to play like I’m invisible
But my words move like spiritual
Revelations, give em the motivation they need
To fight greed and thieves disguised under the creed
We made to believe that they give a fuck about people but
It’s clear to me, it’s all polygyny
Everybody getting fucked by the G.O.P.
But thank GOD for the bill, that took away my power to kill
But enabling my lyrical skills
To kick blasphemous, disastrous, catastrophic hits
Over these rock drums and kicks
Since the tongue holds mightier than the sword
I wave my one-ton uzi over metaphors
Words I let em pour like bullets
World War III coming soon
Stay tuned I’m inviting your doom as it looms
So fuck giving in
We aint stir up the movement to lose so you better make room
(Chorus)
Boom! The Elephant’s in the room, move motherfucker make room make room
Boom! The Elephant’s in the room, move motherfucker make room, huh (scratch noise)
Boom! The Elephant’s in the room, move motherfucker make room make room
Boom! The Elephant’s in the room, motherfucker make room
Now rock with it!
(Verse 3)
They try to play like I’m invisible
But my words move like spiritual
Revelations, give em the motivation they need
To fight greed and thieves disguised under the creed
Made to believe that they give a fuck about people but
It’s clear to me, it’s all polygyny
Everybody getting fucked by the G.O.P.
But thank GOD for the bill, that took away my power to kill
But enabling my lyrical skills
To kick blasphemous, disastrous, catastrophic hits
(I said we kick) blasphemous, disastrous, catastrophic hits!
(I said we kick) blasphemous disastrous, catastrophic hits!
(I said we kick) blasphemous, disastrous, catastrophic hits!
(I said we kick) blasphemous disastrous, catastrophic hits!
So ya better make room!
(Chorus)
Boom! The Elephant’s in the room, move motherfucker make room make room
Boom! The Elephant’s in the room, move motherfucker make room, huh (scratch noise)
Boom! The Elephant’s in the room, move motherfucker make room make room
Boom! The Elephant’s in the room, motherfucker make room

Get Up!
05:06
|

(Verse 1)
Trouble be coming in so many ways
Women, drugs, money, power, greed, and jealousy
Even complacency be knocking at the door for all of us
I done been on every train but be damned not to get me again
Taking strides to be better than what I seen
Inner city blues painted pictures of murder scenes
Fiends and pre teens who believe
Money more than an edu-ma-cation
And “gangsta” the highest accolades to be graced with
At least I know I’m not to smoke a sweet if you laced it
Look at what I came from, but never estranged from
The things I was made from
Prepared for the obstacles whenever I faced them
But now I embrace them, waiting on a chance to show the growth
Toast to everybody who be doing the most
When they was giving the least to start the race
If life was a card game they gave us a short hand
Made us a marked man for hardships
But it also conditioned me to survive when the weather the harshest
World cold, hope you got ya sweater for it
Shit I been dealing so I’m ready for it
That’s why you gotta get up now
Everybody get up now
Get up now, get up now
(Chrous)
Ya gotta get up don’t waste one moment
Ya gotta get up don’t waste no time
Get up if you want to enjoy
Everything that the world provides
Everybody get up don’t waste one moment
Ya gotta get up don’t waste no time
Get up if you want to enjoy
Everything that the world provides
Everybody get up now
Everybody get up now
Ya gotta get up don’t waste one moment
Ya gotta get up don’t waste no time
Get up if you want to enjoy
Everything that the world provides
(Verse 2)
Now many people holla “Rise and Grind”
Now you know they lying but shit I make it in a matter time
Just a matter of mind over chatter
Mouths running like baby bladders
So many say they want to be, don’t wanna become
And they wonder why the money run from
But never running into
I used to wonder it too, now I do what I do
And let it happen as it’ll happen
A destiny manifested is partly divine blessing
Mostly the time spent in believing you was bound to receive it
And when it come to fruition they wondering how you did it
Doubting but I’ll make em a witness
Doubting a GOD’s son I pray they forgiveness
Show you the image of doing ya own thing
Living in pop culture playing ya own lane
Making ya own name, changing the whole game
Never afraid to go against the grain
Aye I’ll show you the image of doing ya own thing
Living in pop culture playing ya own lane
Making ya own name, changing the whole game
Never afraid to go against the grain
Aye!
(Chorus)
Ya gotta get up don’t waste one moment
Ya gotta get up don’t waste no time
Get up if you want to enjoy
Everything that the world provides
Everybody get up don’t waste one moment
Ya gotta get up don’t waste no time
Get up if you want to enjoy
Everything that the world provides
Everybody get up now
Get up now, eh
Gotta get on up now, eh
Get up
(Verse 3)
Whoever knew one day that they would be that bum on the corner holding the sign that reads
We appreciate whoever can find a lil love in they heart to help us out
Seem like life made plans and left us out
Damn what’s that about? Hard to think about
Knowing that a kid somewhere will grow up and end up right there
How does that happen to people is it the world is too challenging
Just couldn’t handle it, just couldn’t balance it?
The good, the bad, the wrongs, the rights, the up and downs
Smiles and frowns, pound for pound, everything was too much for em?
Did they not answer when opportunity looked for em?
Food wasn’t cooked for em so they didn’t eat
Is it a consequence of them deciding to sleep instead of up on they feet?
Go and get it know it aint gone be given
Don’t know how many times I can say it
Gotta replay it and pray it be deep embedded in thought
Never forget your pride hold on to everything you was taught
Regarding life cuz its lessons that be hard to learn
Many niggas never listen till it start to burn and then they
Say they comprende when it’s too late to change
Damn, you fucked up a good thing that could’ve been
I wish you would’ve been up on yo shit
Damn my nigga don’t become a statistic, you gotta get up!
(Outro)
I show you the image of doing ya own thing
Living in pop culture playing ya own lane
Making ya own name, changing the whole game
Never afraid to go against the grain
Aye I’ll show you the image of doing ya own thing
Living in pop culture playing ya own lane
Making ya own name, changing the whole game
Never afraid to go against the grain

Explain to Me
04:11
|

(Hook)
Can somebody explain to me?
Can somebody explain to me?
I said can you explain to me?
Explain to me, Explain to me…
(Verse 1)
The definition of Free, when we a slave to this currency
The definition of Love, when they ain’t giving us none
The definition of Truth, when they keep feeding us Lies
Like what’s the reason for War? Cuz they ain’t telling us why
They ain’t telling us why! Can you explain to me!?
(Hook)
I said can you explain to me?
I said can you explain to me!?
Can somebody explain to me?
Explain to me, Explain to me!
(Chorus)
Why they broadcast what they want us to hear
And they televise what they want us to Fear
And they Campaign what they want us to hate
Talk Truth they got nothing to say
They broadcast what they want us to hear
And they televise what they want us to Fear
And they Campaign what they want us to hate
Talk Truth they got nothing to say
Can you explain to me!?
(Hook)
I said can you explain to me?
I said can you explain to me?
Can somebody explain to me?
Explain to me, Explain to me
(Verse 2)
The definition of equal?
I guess when they oppress 99% of the people
What good is elections?
When they puppeteering everybody selected?
What good are the police?
When they abuse the same people they say they protecting
What good is a country?
When everything I helped build gets taken from me?
Explain to me!
(Hook)
I said can you explain to me!?
(We need some fucking answers!)
I said can you explain to me!?
I said can you explain to me!?
Explain to me, Explain to me!
(Chorus)
Why they broadcast what they want us to hear
And they televise what they want us to Fear
And they Campaign what they want us to hate
Talk Truth they got nothing to say

And they Campaign what they want us to hate
Talk Truth they got nothing to say
Can you explain to me?
(Hook)
I said can you explain to me?
I said can you explain to me?
Can somebody explain to me!
(Verse 3)
How do you explain what seems imagination
Or dream of reality from broken philosophies?
Or sow do you explain this system’s self-evasion?
Or democratic hypocrisy, save your apologies
There’s no way to explain, no way to explain
No way to explain, no way to explain
(Chorus)
Broadcast what they want us to hear
And they televise what they want us to Fear
And they Campaign what they want us to hate
Talk Truth they got nothing to say
They broadcast what they want us to hear
And they televise what they want us to Fear
And they Campaign what they want us to hate
Talk Truth they got nothing to say

Made for the People
02:39

I’m here to rock the block with nonstop shellshock
Rhymes that pump holes in alpines
Hard like a killer with a federal charge
Getting tatted doing curls in the devil’s garage
Make noise like a lion roar
When I E-M-C-E-E, yea I am Lord
Might as well hush your squad when I’m bumping
Put one fist in the air and then jump
Unh! Jump!
Unh! Jump!
Na, this aint for the radio straight for the streets
Aint for the the billboards this one was made for the people
Aint for the pop charts bang this in the basement (How can you take my voice from me?)
Put ya fist up if you give a fuck (How can you take what belongs to me?)
Now start a mosh pit and jump
Unh! Jump!
Unh! Jump!
this aint for the radio straight for the streets
this Aint for the the billboards this one was made for the people
this Aint for the pop charts bang this in the basement
Put ya fist up if you give a fuck
Now listen up
Tell me Why do I battle with making pop shit
Maybe cuz I be bout to trade in my values for desire to cop shit
Why a lot of artists aint shit
Drop shit don’t say shit just to get played quick
Radio’s like a slave ship
They’ll put you in chains if you give up yo brain
Party on the boat live lavish till ya deep in the water and ya sink like Titanic
Lose ya soul, more to that ice than ya know
Yea, that’s why I say…
Fuck the radio, I say fuck the radio
I say fuck the radio, I say fuck the radio
Made for the people
This aint for the radio straight for the streets (How can you take my voice from me?)
Aint for the the billboards this one was made for the people (How can you take what belongs to me?)
This aint for the pop charts bang this in the basement (How can you take my thoughts from me?)
Put ya fist up if you give a fuck (How can you take what belongs to me?)
Now start a mosh pit and jump
This one was made for the people
This one was made
Fuck the radio, fuck the radio
Fuck the radio, fuck the radio
Fuck the radio, this one was made
Fuck the radio, this one was made
Fuck the radio, this one was made
Fuck the radio, this one was made for the people

(Intro)
Aww yea
Drastik IV in the motherfucking building
(Chorus)
Yea they thought it was all fun and games
Till we pulled out them AKs look how they running
They running
(Verse 1)
Now tell me who wanna rumble with the underdog with nothing to lose
Looking to bruise cuz he’s something to prove
Coming at ya with matches and tanks of gasoline
To blow this whole shit up in smithereens
Ridding these libertines plaguing what I hold sacred
This art form I strip naked and
Give you the whole truth nothing but soul food I sold you
Put me on the cross if I told you
A lie anytime I rhyme I die for my own sins
That’s more than I can say for these other men
That’s if you throw the noun loosely around
Lift up they skirt I bet you be surprised at what ya found
But don’t say I never told you so
Pussies here they get fucked for they soul, yea
Don’t say I never told you so
Pussies here they get fucked for they soul
C’mon
(Hook)
And this is the Wrath of the Underdog
This is the Wrath of the Underdog
Said this is the Wrath of the Underdog
The Underdog
(Verse 2)
Tired of taking shit down at the bottom
Shitting on us from the top
Cuz they don’t give a fuck about us
Not to starve gotta steal gotta kill while they counting up a mill
They never would’ve seen without us
Out a job gotta rob now we sitting in a cell cuz we raising hell
How you supposed to feed yourself
Like a fight for your rights aint a right
Got the laws at the strike like we bout to bomb onsite
Maybe we should, let em know it aint
Good in the hood or they suburbs lost sight of the Proverbs
Yet they hold to religion when it’s beneficial
But when it comes to giving benefits they missed the issue
Of the Scripture maybe the biggest picture
Thought we supposed to love one another
Help each other
One nation upholding our reputation
Our government is run by Satan
Yea, Bitches!
(Hook)
And this is the Wrath of the Underdog
This is the Wrath of the Underdog
This is the Wrath of the Underdog
The Underdog
Coming straight from the bottom
Like a rose out of concrete we rise
(Chorus)
Pulling out the AKs, pulling out the AKs
Yea they thought it was all fun and games
Till we pulled out them AKs look how they running
They running
Yea they thought it was all fun and games
Till we pulled out them AKs look how they running
They running
The Wrath of the Underdog

And when I give you the stroke I be deep in ya right

The Kings of Leon type loving

To catch the news about what we do

Give My Life
04:28
|
|||
You’ve given me chances that I know I don’t deserve
Through your actions you saved a world that wasn’t worth
A single blessing from you who were blameless from your birth
Cleansed by your blood
Because of the day you said I’d give my life for you
Because of the day you said I’d give my life for you…
It makes me wonder how we could deny what feels so real
It takes me over and lifts me up outta my despair
When I feel encumbered you make all my worries disappear
Rest me over your shoulders, and that was the day I said I’d give my life for you
And that was the day I said I’d give my life for you…
Sacrifice so I could live, life is such a precious gift
Humbled by your graciousness so I wanna thank you
Sacrifice so I could live, life is such a precious gift
Humbled by your graciousness so I wanna thank you
So hard yea it be so hard
Type of shit when if a nigga aint know God I’d be
So scarred and I’d show no heart
cuz people out here make you wanna break they jaw they be
So fraud when the world got to em
Money and the fame and the drugs got to em
Jealousy and envy and the lust got to to em before the faith in the Lord or the trust got to em
Try to reach out to em, but they never listen when you speak out to em
Pressure or the prison or the street got to em
Hope they said a prayer before the heat got to em and they off in a hearse
Even all through the worse moments of my life
With me all through the hurt never lost or desert me
Knowing that I aint right, you still give me the daylight
That’s why I gotta thank you for giving me life

Creating an army of people who are the
Unsettled, underpaid minimum wage, job delayed

But my words move like spiritual
Revelations, give em the motivation they need
To fight greed and thieves disguised under the creed
We made to believe that they really car about people but
It’s clear to me, it’s all polygyny
Everybody getting took by the G.O.P.
But thank GOD for the bill, that took away my power to kill
But enabling my lyrical skills
To kick blasphemous, disastrous, catastrophic hits
Over these rock drums and kicks
Since the tongue holds mightier than the sword
I wave my one-ton uzi over metaphors
Words I let em pour like bullets
World War III coming soon
Stay tuned I’m inviting your doom as it looms
Forget giving in
We aint stir up the movement to lose so you better make room

Now rock with it!

Made to believe that the really care about people but
