Lyrics

The book of revelations, chapter 7
Verses 16 and 17
(Yes sir!)
They shall hunger no more neither shall they thirst anymore!
(Preach, preacher)
For god shall wipe away
(Yes sir)
Every tear from there eyes
(Yes sir)
Get ready for a revolution
What you say, uh!

[Chorus:]
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oooooh ooooh
Do you want a revolution?!
Whoo, whoo!
Say do you want a revolution?!
Whoo, whoo!
Come on!

[Repeat chorus]

Sick and tired of my brothas killing each other
Sick and tired of daddies leavin' babies with their mothers
To every man who wants to lay around and play around
Listen partner, you should be man enough to stay around
Sick and tired of the church talkin' religion and
Yet, they talk about each other, makin' decisions
No more racism! two-facism! no pollution! the solution?
A revolution!

[Chorus]

[Verse two:] no crime! no dying! politicians lying, everybody's trying
To make a dollar it makes me wanna holler. the way they do my life
They way they do my life. there's gonna be a brighter day
All your troubles will pass away
A revoltuion's comin, yes it's comin, comin'
Revolution's comin. yes it's comin, revolution's comin' comin
[Chorus]

Kirk franklin rap: what you feelin'? what you want son? who you callin' to son?
You know jesus is the true son. the second in the trinity. I know you feelin'
Him
Five hundred days left until the new millenium. you hearin 'em
Trumpets crack the sky, christ the last, the first,the first,the last and won't pass
So don't be caught slippin' brotha don't be trippin' brotha
Cause when I see ya' you better not be dippin' brotha

Darkchild rap: everywhere we go, we say we move to much, we do to much
But when you step against us, a yo, you lose to much
Ain't no stoppin' what I'm doin' when the spirit movin'
Don't be hatin' what I'm doin, I'm the vessel he's usin'
Everywhere I be they try to judge me, they try to shake me, they try to budge me
But they can't break me, cause I'm down with christ
Darkchild and nu nation make ya feel alright

Where my east coast saints at?
Whoo whoo!
Where my west coast saints at?
Whoo whoo!
Where my detroit saints at?
Whoo whoo!
Where my dallas saints at?
Whoo whoo!
Where my atl saints at?
Whoo whoo!
Where my miami saints at?
Whoo whoo!
Where my nashville saints at?
Whoo whoo!
Where my fort worth saints at!!

All my real loud saints throw your hands up!
[Simultaneously with the background]
[Background:] with there hands up. up they got there hands up!
[Repeat 4x ]

[Chorus until fades ]
