They gotta war for oil, a war for gold A war for money and a war for souls A war on terror, a war on drugs A war on kindness and a war on hugs A war on birds and a war on bees They gotta a war on hippies tryin' save the trees A war with jets and a war with missiles A war with high seated, government official Wall street war, on high finance A war on people who just love to dance A war on music, a war on speech A war on teachers and the things they teach A war for the last 500 years War's just messin' up the atmosphere A war on Muslims, a war on Jews A war on Christians and Hindus A whole lotta people just sayin' kill them all They gotta a war on Mumia Abu Jamal The war on pot, is a war that’s failed A war that's fillin' up the nations jails World war one, two, three and four Chemical weapons, biological war Bush war 1, Bush war 2 They gotta a war for me, they gotta a war for you!
(chorus) We can't stop it when the beat just drops! And we don't stop We can't stop it when the rebel rock! And we don't stop We can't stop until we hit those heights! And we don't stop We can't stop because we love this life!
Dance to the new day Sing to the new day, Rhyme to the new day Transform hell into heaven God lives through, Grab hold of today Yesterday is over, tomorrow may be too late Everything is one but the one is off balance Music made for the dollar like soul and talent Really ain't it all about a feeling you was havin' as a child runnin' wild Before the mind programmin' set in Threatenin' your establishment Get in this energy, lay back and sit The next men wreckin', to the master's lips Head spin breathren, get to askin' if Where, when, Mr. President, "What do you know?" It's evident settin' in slow, "How does it go?" An unprecedented event is about to unfold The devil can't stop, won't stop blockin' the globe Fall in a cell here Freedom come knockin' at the door They try lockin' it though, but we about to explode We got the firefly, tiger eye apocalypse flow So deep in the bottom of your bottomless soul send mind darts flyin' out, without a pistol Redesign lost minds got outta the cold Bring order to a world that is outta control "Truth" you say, I say, "How do I know?"
(chorus)
I wanna rock with punks because I love punk rock I wanna rock with heads because I love hip hop I wanna rock my beats all around the block If I was in Bagdad then I would rock Iraq I wanna rock with punks because I love punk rock I wanna rock with heads because I love hip hop I wanna rock my beats all around the block There is just one love so the planet we rock
New world days and new world nights New world wrongs and new world rights Putting new world funds in the new world banks With the new world guns on the new world tanks New world devils and new world gods New world jails see the new worlds hard New world names sing the new world songs New world planes are the new world bombs New world's flying, the new world's dying The new world's crying and the new world's trying New world sons and new world daughters They are already selling us the new world water New world beats for the new world to bang New world streets for the new world to hang New world president, new world drugs New world resident, new world thugs New world players for new world sports New world trials for the new world courts New world lawyers and new world laws New world prisons and new world bars New world fight the new world's fists The new world lighting up the new world spliffs New world smoke in the new world lungs New world's choking, the new world's done
