The table 'bout to turn
The table 'bout to turn
The table 'bout to turn, yeah

I've been flipping through my timeline
Tryna keep my mind right
My city cry
I got to cool down
But I'm under pressure

Look at where my Chris go
Look at where my fist go
I renegade when I'm in a rage
I got to cool down
But I'm under pressure

I keep my hands dirty
My mind clean
Got a new agenda
With a new dream
I'm kicking out the old regime
Liberation, elevation, education

America, you a lie
But the whole world 'bout to testify
I said, the whole world 'bout to testify
And the tables 'bout to
T-t-tables 'bout to

Turn, turn, turn (turn)
Ain't no stoppin' 'til it
Turn, turn, turn
No stoppin' 'til
Turn, turn, turn
We can't wait for it to
Turn, turn, turn (yeah, the table got to turn)

It's a boomerang booming back, yeah
You laid the egg now it's 'bout to hatch, yeah
You gaslight and 'bout to meet your match, uh
You fuck up the kitchen, then you should do the dishes

Burning down plantations, uh
Ain't no parking, I don't need no validation
I like sage when I'm in a rage
I don't need permission, I got my intuition

Hands dirty
Mind clean
A different vision
With a new dream
We kicking out the old regime
Liberation, elevation, education

I said, America, you's a lie
But the whole world 'bout to testify
I said the whole world 'bout to testify
We gon' watch the table
Now we gon' watch the table

Turn, turn, turn (the tables got to)
That's right
Turn, turn, turn (it's got to)
You waited too long, you gotta
Turn, just turn, turn (the tables got to)
We see it all now
Turn, turn, turn (said the tables got to turn)

The tables turn (yeah)
The tables turn
The tables turn (the tables got to)
The tables turn
The tables turn (the tables got to)
The tables turn
The tables turn
The tables turn (the tables got to turn)
