RightYou spend a buck in the 80's, whatcha you get is a preacher
Forgivin' this torture of the system that brought cha
I'm on a mission and you got that right
Addin' fuel to the fire, punch to the fightMany have forgotten what we came here for
Never knew or had a clue so you're on the floor
Just growin', not knowin' about your past
Now you're lookin' pretty stupid while you're shakin' your assMind over matter, mouth in motion
Can't defy, 'cause I'll never be quiet

RightSome people fear me when I talk this way
Some come near me, some run away
Some people take heed to every word I say
Some wanna build a posse, some stay awaySome people think that we plan to fail
Wonder why we go under or we go to jail
Some ask us why we act the way we act
Without lookin' how long they kept us backMind over matter, mouth in motion
Can't defy, 'cause I'll never be quiet
Let's start this
RightYes, you if I bore you, I won't ignore you
I'm sayin' things that they say I'm not supposed to
Give you pride that you may not find
If you're blind about your past then I'll point behindKings, queens, warriors, lovers
People, proud sisters and brothers
Their biggest fear, suckers get tears
When we can top their best ideaMind over matter, mouth in motion

RightMind revolution, our solution
Mind over matter, mouth in motion
Corners don't sell it, no, you can't buy it
Defy, 'cause I'll never be quiet
Let's start this
RightOur solution, mind revolution
Can't sell it, no, you can't buy it in a potion
You lie about the life that you wanted to try
Tellin' me about a head you decided to flyAnother brother with the same woes that you face
But you shot with the same hands, you fall from grace
Every brother should be every brother's keeper
But you shot with your left while your right was on your beeperMind over matter, mouth in motion
Can't defy, 'cause I'll never be quiet

RightAs the world turns, it's a terrible waste
To see the stupid look stuck on your face
Time bomb alarm for the world, just try it
Known to all zones as the one man riotI'm on a mission to set you straight
Children it's not too late
Explain to the world when it's plain to see
To be what the world doesn't want us to beMind over matter, mouth in motion
Can't defy, 'cause I'll never be quiet
