    Rest in power

    I learned about him from a RATM song, like many here probably did.

      Bear witness to tha sickest shot while suckas get romantic

      They ain't gonna send us campin' like they did my man Fred Hampton

      Still we lampin' still clockin' dirt for our sweat

      A ballots dead so a bullet's what I get

      A thousand years they had tha tools

      We should be takin' 'em

      Fuck tha G-ride I want the machines that are makin' em

      Our target straight wit a room full of armed pawn to

      Off tha kings out tha west side at dawn

        yeah i read theory lea-caramelldansen

        Although ya try to discredit, ya still never read it

        The needle, I'll thread it, radically poetic

        Standin' with the fury that they had in '66

        And like E-Double "I'm Mad", still knee deep in the system's shit

        Hoover, he was a body remover

        I'll give you a dose but it can never come close

        To the rage built up inside of me

        Fist in the air in the land of hypocrisy

        Movements come and movements go

        Leaders speak, movements cease when their heads are flown

        'Cause all these punks got bullets in their heads

        Departments of police, (What!) the judges (What!), the feds

        Networks at work, keeping people calm

        You know they went after King when he spoke out on Vietnam

        He turned the power to the have-nots

        And then came the shot
