歌詞

I'm countin' down to the day deservin' fittin' for a King I'm waitin' for the time when I can get to Arizona 'cause my money's spent on the goddamn rent Neither party is mine not the jackass or the elephant 20.000 niggy niggy brothas in the corner Of the cell block but they come from California Population is none in the desert and sun Wit' a gun cracker runnin' things under his thumb Starin' hard at the postcards isn't it odd and unique? Seein' people smile wild in the heat 120 degree 'cause I wanna be free What's a smilin' face when the whole state's racist? Why want a holiday? damn it 'cause I wanna So what if I celebrate it standin' on a corner I ain't drinkin' no 40 thinkin' time wit' a nine Until we get some land call me the trigger man Lookin' for the governor huh he ain't lovin' ya hah But here to trouble ya he's rubbin' ya wrong Get the point to come along he can get to the joint I urinated on the state while I was kickin' this song Yeah, he appear to be fair You sucker over there He try to keep it yesteryear the good ol' days The same ol' ways that kept us dyin' Yes, You me myself and I indeed What he need is a nosebleed read between the lines Then You see the lie Politically planned don't understand that's all she wrote When we see the real side that hide behind the vote And they can't understand why he the man I'm singin' 'bout a King they don't like it when I decide to mike it Wait i'm waitin' for the date for the man who demands respect 'cause he was great c'mon I'm on the one mission to get a politician to honor Or he's a goner by the time I get to Arizona Well I got 25 days to do it if a wall in the way Just watch me go thru it 'cause I gotta do what I gotta do PE number one gets the job done When it's done and over was because I drove 'er Thru all the static not stick but automatic That's the way it is he gotta get his Talkin' MLK gonna find a way Make the state pay lookin' for the day Hard as it seems this ain't no damn dream Gotta know what I mean it's team against team Catch the light beam So I pray I pray everyday I do and praise Jah the maker Lookin' for culture I got but not here from Jamaica Pushin' and shakin' the structure bringin' down the Babylon Hearin' the sucker that make it hard for the brown The hard boulevard I need now more than ever now Who's sittin' on my freedom opressor people beater A piece of the pick we picked a piece of land that we deservin' now Reparation a piece of the nation and damn he got the nerve Another nigga they say and classify we want too much My people plus the nine is mine don't think I even double dutch Here's a brother my attitude is "hit 'em hang 'em high" I'm blowin' up the 90s started tickin' in 86 When the blind get a mind better start fearin while we sing it now There will be the day we know those down and who will go go go go go... ...by the time I get to Arizona... ...by the time I get to Arizona... ...by the time I get to Arizona...
