Take a stand

I'm gonna tell the truth in studio booth

about how this whole country is obsessed with loot

People gettin controlled by the system

No freedom of speech cause they take it like you dissin em

You need to follow the rules or else you will be Lazy

and if you don't they take it like you crazy

Cause taking risks is somethin that you just gotta do

and pray that the Goverment won't sue

Cause they treat you like a robot

and if you fight back they'll take it as a pout

but you need to keep ya head up high and stay stong

and if things start gettin out of hand for so long

all you gotta do is

Chorus:

Fight back

Take a stand

Let your voice be heard

Fight back

Take a stand

Let your voice be heard

Now i normally wouldn't like to do this

but i think i'm gonna have to diss

the way the system is being run

cause at the end of the day they suck out all the fun

It's the truth

cause it's all about the loot

The system starts a war at the drop of an hat

and they don't care about the kids who smoke crack

I just like to speek my mind

but know that they won't let me do that all the time

but i need to stay focused

cause if i don't i'll get killed by plauge of locust

and all i need to do is

Chorus:

Fight back

Take a stand

Let your voice be heard

Fight back

Take a stand

Let your voice be heard

"People gettin controlled by the system

No freedom of speech cause they take it like you dissin em" - I like how you put that form of truth.

You need to follow the rules or else you will be tardy

if you do this then life will never come handy - The flow of the idea isn't together. You associate 'tardy' with 'lateness'. That should be somewhere relevant in that line, because that's obviously the rule your talking about breaking. Or point out some other effect that comes from not following the rules.

"but you need to keep ya head up high and stay stong

and if things start gettin out of hand for so long" - This can should really cool with a nice rhythm in how you say it.

As you write more and more, you should be sharper with your thought process and putting it together. The topic is of great value, but the rhymes are too short to express a full idea. All that matters at the end of the day, is that you got to thinking. That's good for your mind.

The same things as FuQ said really, I liked how simple this rhyme scheme was but there was alot of truth init, it just proves you don't have to be the smartest or quickest, u can simply say the truth thats why I like it anyway...Good Job and keep it up!!
