Revolutionary Thought In A Platinum Consumed Time

by Dwayne Springs


I've got Revolutionary thoughts in a Platinum consumed time
I've got ideas on how to change the problems of the world 
got major problems dealing with the ones that are mine
So is now the time to seize the time or has that time pasted
Has the movement of our people been lulled to
sleep by the shine of some jewels
or the sultry shake of some ass
I've got revolutionary thoughts 
yeah, I want to be part of the movement of our people who still ain't equal
The civil rights movement made great strides
but for us who will star in the sequel?
I've got Revolutionary thoughts in a Platinum consumed time
we were once moved by "I Have a Dream" and "By any means.."
now the mission is "yo,a nigga gotta get mine!"
A generation of black people locked in a mental prison
those with true knowledge teachin'
but are we listenin'
We chase the big car, big house and the American dream
but with us still being niggas in the Master's house what does that mean?
I've got Revolutionary thoughts in a Platinum Consumed Time 
that in itself is scary because so many with revolutionary thoughts
their families unexpectedly had to bury!
