"Revolution" lyrics

The Book of Revelations
Chapter 7, verses 16 and 17 (Yes, sir)
They shall hunger no more
Neither shall they thirst anymore (Preach, preacher!)
For God shall wipe away (Yes, sir)
Every tear from their eye (Yes, sir)
Get ready for the revolution, what you say?
(Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on)

Whoa-o-o-ooh-oh
Do you want a revolution?
Whoop. Whoop!
I said, "Do you want a revolution?"
Whoop. Whoop
Whoa-o-o. Whoa-oh-oh
Do you want a revolution?
Whoop. Whoop
Come on, do you want a revolution?
Whoop. Whoop!

Sick and tired of my brothers, killing each other
Sick and tired of daddies leaving babies with their mothers
So every man that wanna lay around and play around
Listen partner, you be man enough to stay around
Sick and tired of the Church, talking religion
But yet we talk about each other, make a decision
No more racism (No), two face-ism (No)
No pollution (No), the solution (No)
A revolution (Come on)

Whoa-o-o-ooh-oh
Listen, do you want a revolution?
Whoop. Whoop!
I said, do you want a Revolution?
Whoop. Whoop
Whoa-o-o-Whoa-oh-oh
Listen, do you want a revolution?
Whoop. Whoop
I said, "Do you want a revolution?"
Whoop. Whoop! (Ow!)

No crime (No). No dying (No)
Politicians lying (Uh). Everybody's trying (That's right)
To make a dollar
It makes me wanna holler
The way I do my life, the way they do my life
There's gonna be a brighter day (Yes, sir)
All your troubles will pass away (Hallelujah)
A revolution's coming. Yes. It's coming coming
Revolution's coming. Yes, It's coming
A revolution's coming, coming

Whoa-o-o-ooh-oh
Listen, listen. Do you want a revolution?
Whoop. Whoop!
I said, "Do you want a revolution?"
Whoop. Whoop
Whoa-o-o-Whoa-oh-oh
All my people, do you want a revolution?
Whoop. Whoop
I said, "Do you want a revolution?"
Whoop. Whoop!

What you feeling? What you want, son?
Who you calling to, son?
You know Jesus is the truth, son?
The second in the Trinity. I know you feeling him
500 days left, until the new millennium
You're hearing him, trumpet sounding
Christ. The last, the first, the first, the last. It won't pass
So, don't be caught slipping, brother. Don't be tripping, brother
'Cause when I see him, I'm giving it

Even when we go they say we move too much, we do too much
If you step against us, then you lose too much
Ain't no stopping what we doing when the spirit is moving
Don't be hating what I'm doing. I'm the vessel he's using
(Say what?)
Everywhere I be they try to judge me
They try to shake me, they try to buzz me
But they can't break me 'cause I'm down with Christ (Ha ha ha ha)
DarkChild and Nu Nation make me feel alright

Where all my east-coast saints at? Whoop. Whoop! (Yes, sir)
Where my west-coast saints at? Whoop. Whoop! (Come on)
Where my Detroit saints at? Whoop. Whoop! (Come on)
Where my Dallas saints at? Whoop. Whoop! (Ha ha, ow)
Where my Chi-Town saints at? Whoop. Whoop! (Come on)
Where my A-T-L saints at? Whoop. Whoop! (Come on)
Where my Jersey saints at? Whoop. Whoop!
Where all my towns saints at?
(Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on)

With their hands up! Up, they got their hands up!
With their hands up! Up, they got their hands up!
With their hands up! Up, they got their hands up!
With their hands up! Up, they got their hands up!

Where my DC saints at? Whoop. Whoop! (Come on)
Where my Nashville saints at? Whoop. Whoop! (Yeah, yeah)
Where my Newsville saints at? Whoop. Whoop! (Come on)
Where my Philly saints at? Whoop. Whoop!
Where my Denver saints at? Whoop. Whoop!
Where my Charlotte saints at? Whoop. Whoop! (Come on)
Where my Tampa saints at? Whoop. Whoop! (Let's go)

With their hands up! Up, they got their hands up!
With their hands up! Up, they got their hands up!
With their hands up! Up, they got their hands up!
With their hands up! Up, they got their hands up!
