(Verse 1)
Ay
How you spell America?
Money, hey
A million ways to win, a million ways to die
They ain’t teach you how to make it, gotta improvise
A bite to get the biggest slice out the biggest pie
Wars for peace, wars for freedom, ha ha ha
But war don’t really got a finish line, hey
Is it really gentrified or just genocide?
Is it for the civilized or assembly lines?
Corporate enterprise, eat off all your prison time, hey
When you commit a crime, now it’s dinner time
It’s not the money it’s the greed that conceals ya
They say it’s not the cancer it’s the chemo that kills ya
(Chorus)
What a sight, what a sight, what a sight
When the fire has started to rise
And then the people would say
Shouting We run the night
Saying We run the night, yeah
What a sight, what a sight, what a sight
When the fire has started to rise
And then the people would say
Shouting We run the night
Saying We run the night, yeah
(Verse 2)
Look, who put the con in economy?
Probably the same ones that put the sun in astronomy
Common sense ain’t as common as one would think
To program you they do is unconsciously
You such a patriot
Down for your country but your country never gave a s**t
Am I citizen here or am I just paying rent?
I think I finally understand just what the matrix is
What my location is
And ni**as all anti this and anti that
Well you so anti everything that you anti black
And you so anti violence that you anti strap
Now you look hella unprepared when it’s time to attack, bands
(Chorus)
What a sight, what a sight, what a sight
When the fire has started to rise
And then the people would say
Shouting We run the night
Saying we run the night, yeah
What a sight, what a sight, what a sight
When the fire has started to rise
And then the people would say
Shouting we run the night
Saying we run the night, yeah
