| Ain’t nobody gonna lead the way
 | 
| It’s up to you and me to make the differences we’re trying to see
 | 
| And take control of our own minds
 | 
| (How many people got control of their minds?)
 | 
| Take control of our own minds
 | 
| Stop letting them shape and mold until we go blind
 | 
| Unlock your brain and set your mind state free.
 | 
| Set your mind state free
 | 
| Once you open the door, their ain’t no closing it you’re
 | 
| A soldier at war, living within the core of the storm
 | 
| Just like the war on CNN, a war where these men send
 | 
| Missiles at innocent victims and swore to defend them
 | 
| I’m talking about the war for your soul and the core of the goal
 | 
| Ownership of everything and total control
 | 
| Over every facet of life that we live
 | 
| Hell, that’s the reason that we rap on the mics to these kids
 | 
| Trying to reach them so they’ll stand up and fight to resist the system
 | 
| Help their minds get equipped quicker cause the cycle just gets sicker
 | 
| The more that we sip liquor and hope that it gets rid of
 | 
| The problems and makes life better, it’s more video
 | 
| I’m not a bullshitter man, everything that glitters can’t
 | 
| Be gold, we sold our souls for so little land
 | 
| Now, we gotta stop following these fake leaders
 | 
| And stand proud and stop swallowing what they feed us
 | 
| Ain’t nobody gonna lead the way
 | 
| It’s up to you and me to make the differences we’re trying to see
 | 
| And take control of our own minds
 | 
| Stop letting them shape and mold until we go blind
 | 
| Yo,
 | 
| Once you open your eyes, there ain’t no going back to closing your mind
 | 
| It shows in the shine, not knowing you’re frozen in time
 | 
| From Atlantis to Suma
 | 
| Babylon to Rome and
 | 
| To the avid consumer who just travels on the road from
 | 
| Plato to NATO, to the gavel that they hold
 | 
| To the billions of children, like cattle that they sold
 | 
| Every day it’s like a battle for your soul
 | 
| Be aware of all the weapons that you have at your disposal
 | 
| Know, without a doubt in your heart and soul that
 | 
| No man can stop you from reaching the hardest goal but
 | 
| You, allow it to happen
 | 
| Cowards, you got the power to stop them
 | 
| The power to trap them and lock them in
 | 
| They can’t live without your fear, like it was oxygen
 | 
| So breathe in deep and expel the fear and toxins
 | 
| Stand with me, you might feel the sand shifting
 | 
| And step away from the sins of our ancestry
 | 
| Ain’t nobody gonna lead the way
 | 
| It’s up to you and me to make the differences we’re trying to see
 | 
| And take control of our own minds
 | 
| (How many people got control of their minds?)
 | 
| Ain’t nobody gonna lead the way
 | 
| It’s up to you and me to make the differences we’re trying to see
 | 
| And take control of our own minds
 | 
| Stop letting them shape and mold until we go blind |
