"Gun Powder" lyrics

"Gun Powder"

And you say that you are revolutionaries
Well, if you are revolutionaries, you must assume the revolutionary posture
Chairman Mao says power come from the barrel of a gun
See, it's no in-between, you are either free or you a slave
There's no such thing as second-class citizenship
Once you go for it, you go for it because you jumped
The only thing that's gon' free Huey is gunpowder, black powder
Che Guevara says it's only two ways to leave the battlefield, victorious or dead
Huey's in jail
That's no victory, that's a concession
It's power that controls this country
America changed the international monetary standard from gold to paper gold
See, Black folks are chumps
If America were to tell you to bring all the rocks in this country to her
And she'll give you a million dollars for it, you'll do it
And the next day, she'll tell you, "We usin' rocks for currencies, chump"
