Revolution on My Mind by Konsider Kush Lyrics
[Intro]
Revolution time
It’s getting real man
Feels like the country’s burning
That’s why I think I got revolution on my mind
Can’t get it out of my head
Cos its getting real
[Mothipa]
Yeah, shits getting realer that an MK’s flashback
The finger on the trigger is always aiming at the black man
The point that same finder but they won’t address the Land Act
Well see an ugly picture once they escalate the Land grabs
Now what to do, I don’t know, I just need to write these songs
Right each wrongs, build a solid case, making it might strong
Martial law, they taking up arms, dying more and more
Feeding into war no clue what they fighting for
Not me never that, I always keep an open mind
Two sides to a story so you got to hear the other side
Keep informed knowledge is power in feeling very strong
Strong enough to reclaim this place that I feel we belong
So I think, so I feel, ultimately so it is
I make good music start a revolution do this for the kids
Its what I did, its what I do. More importantly how I give
All the hidden gold beneath the surface that you never dig
So I got to do it big, I got to do my thing
But one question they keep asking me ‘Who died and made me King?’
I say ‘Hani, Sobukwe, Garvey, Biko, Marley, Malcom, Onkgopotse Tiro, Fanon, Tsietsi, Makeba, Sankara, Solomon Mahlangu, Guevara, Kenyatta”
The list goes on and on, let me not digress
How I wish they were still alive to help us clean this mess
But they not it’s up to some of us to take of the rest
Do best alleviate this post democratic stress
For unsung heroes that fought for my people
And took down a system so unjust it was evil
Well this is how we big you up Nothing was in vain
And may your soul be blessed in the revolutions name
Till then we stay grinding one day at a time
I respect your hustle even its way different from mine
Unemployment’s at a high, to get by, they’ll resort to crime
That is why I got revolution on my mind
Revolution on my mind
Revolution on my mind
Revolution on my mind
All the time day and night
Revolution on my mind
In this life to survive
Revolution on my mind
Not time to cry ride or die
Revolution on my mind
I say we stay grinding one day at a time
I respect your hustle even its way different from mine
Unemployment’s at a high, to get by they’ll resort to crime
That is why I got revolution on my mind
Revolution on my mind
La Revolution
Revolution time
It’s getting real man
Feels like the country’s burning
That’s why I think I got revolution on my mind
Can’t get it out of my head
Cos its getting real
