"Now or Never"

MK Ultra Verse 1:

It's Like
Give your life up for the hustle
Give your life up for the game
Dollars, dollars, get it, get it
Any way it’s all the same
Police wanna jail us
Investigate, detail us
Federales
Forensic files trail us
white collar swine, ATF, FBI
I'm fighting back
Going in for mines
Poisons, pesticides,
Cancers not benign,
Fam cries
Vest, strapped, 40, and a 9mm
Physically collide, world-wide, heads high
For those killed, jailed,
Never testified,
Never snitched
Never lost their pride

Strife Verse 1:

Take a look in the mirror
And repeat this here
I must not fear
Fear is the mind-killer
Fear is the little death
Obliteration in all respects
I will face my fear
Let it pass through me with patience
When it’s past,
I'll see my minds eye adjacent
When the fear has gone, there'll be nothing at last
I’ll wipe a tear from my eye & blast back
Chug a beer, & that’s that (x2)
We on the fast track to a last stand,
Status pending
Born into a life of shit
Go out declaring my own ending
you understand the meaning,
Declare my own beginning
Go out of this cruel world swinging
& grinning,
You understand the meaning,
Understand how I’m leaning, tight
Point blank
Who has the right to run your life?
You have the right to run your life

Motherfucker, it's Strife

Hook:

We Deserve Better Than This
Were In This Together
Now or Never, Light Spliffs
We Deserve Better Than This
Were In This Together
Now or Never, Raise Your Fist
We Deserve Better Than This
Were In This Together
Now or Never, Load Clips

We Deserve Better Than This
Were in this Together
Light spliffs
Raise ya fist
Load clips

Strife Verse 2:

Keep it in perspective
I’ll make it explicit
As long as oppression existed
There’s always been resistance
As long as there’s been shady big business,
There’s been resistance
As long as there’s been lazy government indifference
There’s been resistance
As long as we’ve been fooled by religious restrictions
There’s been resistance
Why I'm pulling triggers, stayin' true to convictions
As long as most have conformed to petty systems
Some have learned to overcome the deadly contradictions
& that’s resistance, pulling triggers, question how you living,
That’s resistance, and that’s the realness


MKUltra 2nd verse:

Prison complex
Generating profits
Billionaire execs,
Cash the biggest checks
Corporate conquest,
Global markets
Military swine department
Special Forces, US marshals
Execute demands of the major caucus
A pig is a pig,
No conscious,
Noxious progress
Locked populous
Forced through the process
For drug related nonsense
Caught in a case
Lost behind steel gates
Lifting weights,
Reading books,
Poison food on your plate
Industries of slavery dominate
Subvert economies
Study feasability of getting paid illegally,
Risking prison time unreasonably
The grind is resistance basically
