Fooled around and found out
Thought it didn't count
Now the symphony of chaos
Singing sounds of doom and doubt
Hell is near, the writing on the wall is clear
Public opinion boiled in the year of fear
The dreamers, the fighters, the bold from the ashes
Just us — look out as the wall crashes
The youth, the future, the echo, the cries
Time is now — woke up, realized the rise
The wise operator teaching from the third eye
Policy is poisoned, Bibles pointed to the sky
Those that don't know — don't they always be talking?
Those that always talking seem to really never know
Fools fool fools — kill that autotune
Jigga told y'all years ago, there ain't enough room
Nature yelling loud, speaking in loud raging cries
History repeats in the ignorance of time
January wake, 2025 survive
Reimagined struggle as these ages rewind
Fools fool fools, spinning webs of deceit
In the game of power — who not feeling that heat?
Bang them drums so their mama can get some
Set the world on fire as they run, run, run
This masquerade parade spinning in web of charades
The game of power got the blood coming down in the shower
Fools fool fools, lying behind their likes
Used to be 5 Mic, the liars change the rules
Truth be told, they killin' life like black mold
So young can never get old — it's dangerous to behold
So-called land of liberty — watch democracy shake
As the world turns and as the Earth quakes
Dreams reborn in the ashes of deceit
Harmonies found on this bomb-ass beat
Fools fool fools — but the wise will rise
Locally to globally, righteousness... survives...

Sorry, but this is a pass for me. Not what I come to RP for.
I enjoy hip hop and rap at times, but just not what I expect from my "Eclectic Rock" oasis.

Brilliant. Angry, timely, spitting straight truth. This is a perfect example of art as activism. And it's a head bopper.

I dunno, I'm not a fan of rap, but the lyrics are spot on. Good on them.

What do you think "eclectic" means?
