Lyrics – Burnin’ Down the Precinct

Song Intro:
Major
This one right here is for the revolution
See back in 1791 the haitians fought blood sweat and spirit
For their freedom and equality til 1804
But how far yall willing to go

(Verse)
I smell a recipe for disaster
Tear the state down and build communities after
After the fire the torching the scorching
For all of the lynching and hanging
F* it im tired
We riding or dying
Tonight im inspired and dangerous
All this rage in us
I aint going out without a fight
F* it tell the cops its on sight
They set a curfew cause they wanna hurt you
And disregard your constitutional right
Well b* i aint never scared
Liberte au lanmo
That mean im better dead
Cause its our freedom or war!

And i never been the type to lay around
I aint talking man i want it right now
You aint never gonna learn
And i wont ever bow down
With my black crown
All you hear is black lives matter
In the background
Ima say it that loud
We demand the facts now
Black power its about to be a blackout
Black wall street
F* blacken out the white house
Im only spending on black businesses to lash out
You gone feel me
Coming up from where i came from clearly
And if its war in the street
Then its war in the world
And you know that you aint matching up nearly
And since you dont wanna hear me
The people ignited the flames
United we stand divided we fall
Equality conquer the land yeah

(Prechorus)
And we aint ever gonna give it up again
Walking round the city with a semi tucked
All in my pants in daylight
I will not chance no more
Im the original
Im with the fam
We got a plan on go mode
So watch it all unfold
(Hook)
Cause if you aint got polices for policemen
You got lawless in the streets
And all my n* on the defense
Aint no justice aint no peace for police
Whats beef? when ya burnin down the precinct

(Verse)
Down goes goliath
You started the shooting we started the riots
You started the looting but call us the pirates
You racist prejudice and bigoted
Dont you deny it
I aint being quiet if i couldnt speak
Couldnt preach
Rap nor sing
Even if i never had the reach
Really we just need another x
Yeah respect i did a decade as a prisoner of war
I got alot to teach
So meet me in the streets we getting the votes up
Pick and choose who you want in the seat like a sofa
Tired of seeing vultures
Misrepresenting tryna coach us
When they aint did or doing for the culture
Enough is enough cause its eye for an eye
Its either we against the world of racism
Or we ready to die
Word to biggie and pac

(Prechorus)
And we aint ever gonna give it up again
Walking round the city with a semi tucked
All in my pants in daylight
I will not chance no more
Im the original
Im with the fam
We got a plan on go mode
So watch it all unfold
(Hook)
Cause if you aint got polices for policemen
You got lawless in the streets
And all my n* on the defense
Aint no justice aint no peace for police
Whats beef? when ya burnin down the precinct

Cause if you aint got polices for policemen
You got lawless in the streets
And all my n* on the defense
Aint no justice aint no peace for police
Whats beef? when ya burnin down the precinct
