People of the Sun

Since 1516 mind attacked and overseen, now
Crawl amidst the ruins of this
Empty Dream
They're borders and boots on top of us, pullin'
Knobs on the floor of their toxic metropolis
So how you gonna get what you need ta get? tha
Gut Eaters, blood drenched get offensive like
tet
When the fifth sun sets get back reclaim, tha
Spirit of Cuahtemoc alive an untamed
Face tha funk now blastin' out ya
Speaker, on the one Maya, Mexica
That vulture came ta try and steal ya name but
Now you found a gun
This is for the People of the Sun
It's comin' back around again
This is for the people of the sun
Neva forget that tha wip snapped ya back, ya
Spine cracked for tabacco, oh I'm the Marlboro
Man
Our past blastin' on through that versers,
Bridgades of taxi cabs rollin' broadway like
Hearses
Troops strippin' zoots, shots of red mist,
Sailors blood on tha deck,
Come sista resist
Tha new era of terror check this pronto lens, tha
City of angels does tha ethnic cleanse
Heads bobbin' to that funk out ya
Speaker, on tha one Maya, Mexica
That vulture came ta try an steal ya name but now
You found a gun... You're history
This is for the People of the Sun
It's comin' back around again
This is for the people of the sun
