[Talib Kweli]
   Yo you sent out the signal right?
   And this is what happened
   The voice of Hip Hop got heard
   Never comprimised this is how we put it down c'mon
  
   [Kool G Rap]
   Throughout my thuglife I've seen the ???
   Like ??? fight over the role of dice
   Flashing whole lights when killas on a hiest
   So contight, get poltergiest over the bowl of Christ
   Who pulled the slice from cats aiming gats who showed the hiest
   Told you right she be the one that come and hold your mic
   Then aim it at the whole vice squad just like ???
   Rollin like every prototype was dolomight
   One man recall his ice inside his gun hand he holds for life
  
   [Rah Digga]
   This for the ones with holes in they graves
   Waitin for they piece when the law misbehave
   I say we off ??? watch 'em walk the beat
   Like you can't cross streets make them all retreat
   (now) Judges and the jury be a little to appointed
   Making us defendants when we supossed to be the plantiffs
   Laugh now cause soon the thrill stops
   Heads get it on and start to kill cops
  
   [Sporty Theivz]
   I'm sober but the pull me over
   What i do yo? (what we do yo?)
   Poe-poe go i'm drivin to slow (cool yo)
   I torin' them explorin them (damn)
   For them that's why i'm ignoring them (uh-oh)
   Bring like king skip
   Before they bring this to some Rodeny King shit
   Forget them fools
   Now make no sudden moves
   They reachin for they tools (let's move)
   You buggin dude
   Kirk you ran the stop, word them pigs frontin
   Yo tell like you tell 'em cousin we ain't did nothin
   All they see is three blacks in a jeep with seats back
   Lookin for ??? packs how the blood dog can eat that
   They thirstin for a reason to blast you can't beat that
   Gats and a badge to match you can beat that so bounce 'em

   My people unite and let's all get down
   We gotta have what? love peace and understandin
   One god, One love, One light
   One aim, One voice, One fight
   My people unite, hop up and do it right
   We gotta have what? love peace and understandin
   One god, One love, One light
   One aim, One voice, One fight
   My people unite, hop up and do it right

   [Shabaam Sahdeeq]
   Blood on they hands, blood on my mans
   Destroying the fam
   More souljers die, another mother cries
   Anthony Buyers, ??? ???, Diallo
   Let it keep happenin and theirs more to follow
   It's even deeper then that penal shot in the back
   Forever we fight and cus but the world still adjust
   So many bullets just to stop one man
   Is that the plan,
   To leave us all dead in the street
  
   [Common]
   I'm an opponent of violence
   To many of my guys have to condome it in silence
   Law takes lives and can only do violence
   And with night sticks i write quick
   Hopin that
  
   [Talib Kweli and Common]
   I might hit somebody in the heart
  
   [Talib Kweli]
   Like an arrow with her eyes on a sparrow
   Yo i feel my peoples pain all in my bone marrow
  
   [Common]
   I'm tellin Pharoahe to let my folks go
   Ma's been singin to law like they background vocals
  
   [Talib Kweli]
   Local, state, federal cops have been payed properly
   To protect the property
   How can i just stand by and watch a man die for nothin and not react
   The way we spit on this track is how we bustin back
  
   [Common]
   Yo i pimp slap 5-0
   Get behind them and make the marks drive slow
  
   [Talib Kweli]
   Yo, you wanna know how to improve on the quality life?
   Try respectin it step into my zone and maifest a check in it
  
   [Pharoahe Monch]
   Cops they transport me from Long island to Medina
   with they fucked up demeanor
   Dreamin of stickin it to me like Abner Louima
   Pharoahe slash El-Hajj Malik Shabazz
   with plans of retaliations of they coward ass
   God please allow me to preach for 'em
   A voiceless man through a spirit i speek for him
   Step to city hall if a dove flew for Diallo
   with a vision of cops inside the Public Enemy logo
  
   [Posdnous]
   All that scheming and plotting
   The young absorb like cotton does
   Ecspeacially in my city where the boys steady rockin in
   You would thought 5-0 would cut it all short
   But they play the biggest part in the art of living arms
   In our land cops guns clap more then hands
   As if we don't deserve what they hear to preserve
   We just tryin to do it right in these worlds that we rappin in
   While they trying to fill us all up with more lead then zepilin
