"Get up, get down, 911 is a joke in my town" |

Remember that song?
same as NOLA rescue... this is nothing new to blacks. we already knew that areas with poverty are ignored by the authorities.
We know that cops don't bother with the ghetto unless they want something...

Seen the lyrics to the new piece Chuck D wrote about New Orleans? HELL NO, WE AINT ALLRIGHT
New Orleans in the morning, afternoon, and night Hell NO, we Aint Allright
Now all these press conferences breakin news alerts this just in while your government looks for a war to win flames from the blame game, names? where do i begin? walls closin in get some help to my kin Who cares? while the rest of the bushnation stares as the drama unfolds as we the people under the stares 50% of this son of a bush nation is like hatin on haiti an settin up assasinations ask Pat Robertson- quiz him..... ...smells like terrorism. racism in the news still one sided news saying whites find food prey for the national guard ready to shoot cause them blacks loot
New Orleans in the morning, afternoon, and night Hell NO, we Aint Allright
Fires , earthquakes, tsunamis i dont mean to scare wasnt this written somewhere? disgraces all i see is black faces moved out to all these places emergency state corpses, alligators and snakes big difference between this haze and them diamonds on the VMAs we better look whats really important under this sun especially if you over 21 this aint no tv show this aint no video this is really real beyond them same ol 'keep it real' quotes from them Tv stars drivin big rim cars 'streets be floodin, 'b' no matter where you at, no gas driving is a luxury urgency state of emergency shows somebodys government is far from reality....
New Orleans in the morning, afternoon, and night Hell NO, we Aint Allright
I see here we be the new faces of refugees who aint even overseas but here on our knees forget the plasma TV-aint no electricity new worlds upside down-and out of order shelter? food? wsssup, wheres the water? no answers from disaster them masses hurtin so who the fk we call?--Halliburton? son of a bush, how you gonna trust that cat? to fix sht when help is stuck in Iraq? makin war plans takin more stands in Afganistan 2000 soldiers dyin in the sand but thats over there, right? now what's over here is a noise so loud that some cant hear but on TV i can see bunches of people lookin just like me..

911 is a Joke
Hit me Going, going, gone Now I dialed 911 a long time ago Don't you see how late they're reactin' They only come and they come when they wanna So get the morgue embalm the goner They don't care 'cause they stay paid anyway They teach ya like an ace they can't be betrayed I know you stumble with no use people If your life is on the line they you're dead today Late comings with the late comin' stretcher That's a body bag in disguise y'all betcha I call 'em body snatchers quick they come to fetch ya? With an autopsy ambulance just to dissect ya They are the kings 'cause they swing amputation Lose your arms, your legs to them it's compilation I can prove it to you watch the rotation It all adds up to a funky situation So get up get, get get down 911 is a joke in yo town Get up, get, get, get down Late 911 wears the late crown
911 is a joke
Everyday they don't never come correct You can ask my man right here with the broken neck He's a witness to the job never bein' done He would've been in full in 8 9-11 Was a joke 'cause they always jokin' They the token to your life when it's croakin' They need to be in a pawn shop on a 911 is a joke we don't want 'em I call a cab 'cause a cab will come quicker The doctors huddle up and call a flea flicker The reason that I say that 'cause they Flick you off like fleas They be laughin' at ya while you're crawlin' on your knees And to the strength so go the length Thinkin' you are first when you really are tenth You better wake up and smell the real flavor Cause 911 is a fake life saver
So get up, get, get get down 911 is a joke in yo town Get up, get, get, get down Late 911 wears the late crown
Ow, ow 911 is a joke
