The Revolution Will Not Be Televised
You will not be of the minority my brother
You will not be another gunned down black man just trying to make a way for himself
You will not have to pull out your glock to cock back click clat bang to defend what’s yours
And throw away your life showing the government that us negroes will never amount to anything
Because the Revolution will not be televised
The Revolution will not be televised
The Revolution will not be brought to you by MTV or VH1
You will not be 16 and pregnant while fist pumping down jersey shore
The revolution will not show you how to be single ladies
Nor show the men how to love New York
You will not be another stereotypical black catfishing their way through reality
Because the Revolution will not televised
The Revolution will not show you how to rock your hips
nor spread your legs
Allowing every type of germ
from bacteria
to a perverted man to enter inside you.
The revolution will not show our young women being beat down and shunned out.
It will not show you how to shake what your momma gave ya on Lil Wayne’s next rap video
Because the Revolution will not be televised
Instead The Revolution will be brought to you by our future Huxtable’s.
Allowing the world to see that a strong black family still exists in America.
The revolution will show that freedom is ringing and that freedom will continue to ring
As all walks of life come together as a united front teaching later generations that love is the unified theory of everything.
The Revolution will not be televised, will not be televised
Will not be televised, will NOT be televised
The revolution will be no re-runs family
The revolution will be live.
