Get Up Letra

Fuck the police

Hey you all ready for this shit

You all trump

Ya'll ready to get into this crump



You got to get up right now

Turn the system upside down

Your supposed to be fed up by now

Turn the system upside down

Get up



Honestly, I'm against this government

I ain't got to cover it up, that's what I meant

Sick of payin' bills and I'm sick of pain' rent

Seem like I work all the time

but don't know where the money went

And the funny shit is we supposed to like this shit

But all ya'll politicians can bite this dick

It's a war goin' on the ghetto is a cage

They only give you two choices be a rebel or be a slave

(so what you do?)

So I rebel, like an ulcer in the belly of the beast

Stayin' true to it

Since my home street days in the blue buick

Niggas been fightin' so long seem like I'm used to it

Now which I know 'bout how The Coup do it

Truth fluid

Boots put the funk to it

Ain't nothing to it

This is for the Gs all the way to the Bay

From 'Frisco to Oakland all over LA



You got to get up right now

Turn the system upside down

Your supposed to be fed up by now

Turn the system upside down

Get up



Now uh, this fella spits yella

Never been a snitch tella

One paystub from my homeless ditch dwella

Yellin' fuck a Rockefella

my shit bumpin' a cappella

My lyrical quotes are nervous notes to bank tellers

When we can call it off we hallin' off, molitofs and bricks

Mr. Bailiff you can put that in the transcripts

Hope your motherfucking paddy wagon van flips

Some saw it off

I prefer hand grips

Quote us

You know were stronger than a three day notice

Pay or quit

It's more of us than the lies that your mayor spit

I'm on some "ma hate the game but love the player" shit

Is you a have or you have not

When you run outta bullets grab rocks

'Cause the prison do' slam locks

It don't open for your fam', unless you rich and have stocks



Fight the power like a motherrfucking Zulu

It's the Coup plus Kanume and Mutulu

So raise your hands in the air like we were born to win

but make a fist for the struggle we was born to win



You got to get up right now

Turn the system upside down

Your supposed to be fed up by now

Turn the system upside down

Get up



When I hear that "whoop whoop"

I be duckin' them hoes

I can smell the pig comin'

so I stay on my toes

On the low from po-po

so fuck the Ho-lice!

'Cause peace to me is loaded under my seat

And I the power, respect that

So "serve and protect" that!

I'm young black and just don't give a fuck

try me

Grilling you right back, you betta drive by me

We the people army is known to get rowdy

And even if you a friend of the blue

You can get it too

Snitchin' is never forgettable

This hell we live in is never forgivable

It come down to DP and The Coup

Remember Huey, Bobby Hutton, George, Fred, and them

Fuck the po-po, local, state, fed, and then

You betta choose your side, Crip, Blood, 4-1-5

It's one team, get up and let's ride



You got to get up right now

Turn the system upside down

Your supposed to be fed up by now

Turn the system upside down

Get up
