Yell Fire! lyrics
Yell Fire! lyrics
A revolution never come with a warnin'.
A revolution never sends you an omen.
A revolution just arrive like the mornin'.
Ring the alarm, we come to wake up the snorin'.
They tellin' you to never worry about the future.
They tellin' you to never worry about the torture.
They tellin' you that you will never see the horror.
Spend it all today and we will bill you tomorrow.
Three-piece suits and bank accounts in Bahamas.
Wall Street crime will never send you to the slammer.
Tell all the children in the arms of their mamas:
the F-15 is a homocide bomber.
TV commercial for a pop-a-pill culture,
drug companies circling like a vulture.
Am-Iraqi babies with a G.I. Joe father.
Ten years from now is anybody gonna bother?
Yell Fire, yo, yo, yo, yo.
(Here we come, here we come)
Yell Fire, yo, yo, yo, yo.
(Revolution a come)
Yell Fire, yo, yo, yo, yo
(Put 'em up, put 'em up)
Yell Fire, yo, yo, yo, yo
(Throw your hands up)
A revolution never come with a warnin'.
A revolution never sends you an omen.
A revolution never come with a warnin'.
A revolution...
Everyone addicted to the same nicotine.
Everyone addicted to the same gasoline.
Everyone addicted to a technicolor screen.
Everybody tryna get their hands on the same green.
From the banks of the river to the banks of the greedy,
all of the riches taken back by the needy.
We come from the country and we come from the city.
Play us on a record, you can play us on a CD.
All the shit you've given us, it's fertilizer.
The seeds that you planted, you can never brutalize.
Tell the corporation you can never globalize it.
Like Peter Tosh said: Legalize It!
Girls and boys hear the bass and the treble
rumble in the speakers and it make you wanna rebel.
Throw your hands up, take it to another level
and you never, ever, ever make a deal with the devil.
Yell Fire, yo, yo, yo, yo.
(Here we come, here we come)
Yell Fire, yo, yo, yo, yo.
(Revolution a come)
Yell Fire, yo, yo, yo, yo
(Put 'em up, put 'em up)
Yell Fire, yo, yo, yo, yo
(Throw your hands up)
Throw your hands up!
Come on, come on.
Throw your hands up!
Put 'em up, put 'em up.
Throw your hands up!
Throw your hands up!
Revolution never come with a warnin'.
Revolution never send you an omen.
Revolution never come with a warnin'.
Yell Fire, yo, yo, yo, yo.
(Here we come, here we come)
Yell Fire, yo, yo, yo, yo.
(Revolution a come)
Yell Fire, yo, yo, yo, yo
(Put 'em up, put 'em up)
Yell Fire, yo, yo, yo, yo
(Throw your hands up)
Revolution never come with a warnin'.
Revolution never send you an omen.
Revolution just arrives like the mornin'.
Ring the alarm, we come to wake up the snorin'.
Yell Fire!
Yo, yo, yo.
Fire!
Here we come, here we come.
A revolution a come.
Put 'em up, put 'em up.
