[Speaking:]
Book of Revelations
Chapter 7, verses 16 and 17 (yes sir)
They shall hunger no more,
neither shall they thirst anymore (preach, preacher!)
And God shall wipe away (yes sir)
Every tear from their eye (yes sir)
Get ready for the revolution, come on, what you say now?

[Hook: Trio]
Oh, oh, oh, oh [x2]
[Lead] Do you want a revolution?
[All:] Whoop, whoop!
[Lead] I said do you want a revolution?
[All:] Whoop, whoop!

Oh, oh, oh, oh! [2x]
Do you want a revolution?
Whoop, whoop!
Come on, do you want a revolution?
Whoop, whoop!

[v1:]
Sick and tired of my brothers, killing each other, sick and tired of daddies leaving babies with their mothers
So every man that wanna lay around and play around, listen partner you be man enough to stay around

[Pre-Chorus 1:]
Sick and tired of the Church, talking religion but yet we talk about each other, make a decision
No more racisim (no), two face-ism (no)
No pollution (no)
The solution (no)
A revolution!

[Repeat Hook]

[v2:]
No crime (no), No dying (no)
Politicians lying (uh), everybody's trying to make at dollar, it makes me want to holler
The way I do my life, the way they do my life

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
There's gonna be a brighter day
All your troubles will pass away
A revolution's coming, yes its coming, coming brother
A revolution's coming, yes it's coming
A revolution's coming, coming!

[Back to Hook]

[Old School Flow]
What you feeling, what you want, son?
Who you calling to, son?
You know Jesus is the truth, son?
The second in the Trinity
I know you feeling Him
500 days left, until the New Millenium
You hearing Him, the trumpet sounding
Christ, the last, the first, the first, the last, it won't pass.
So don't be caught slipping brother, don't be tripping brother, cause when I see Him, I'm getting it.

[Rap] [Darkchild]
Even when we go they say we move too much, we do too much
If you step against us, then you lose too much
Ain't no stopping what we doing when the Spirit is moving
Don't be hating what I'm doing, I'm the vessel He's using.

Everywhere I be they try to judge me,
they try to shake me
They try to buzz me, but they can't break me cause I'm down with Christ
Darkchild and Nu Nation make me feel alright
