Chorus:

Children, groovin, women, confusion

Then go away, it's time to understand

Everyone's got to make a livin

Children, groovin, women, confusion

Then go away, it's time to understand

Everyone's got to make a livin

Nineteen-ninety-two and, you and I were fightin

LAPD beatings got the whole world frontin

My man Rodney King and the Reginald ?Deeney?

You could look for justice but I bet you won't find any

Because people getting beatin, news keep repeatin

Chaos and anger, just surely peakin

Yo everybody's runnin, some of them are gunnin

Avalanche the block, feel the anger, wantin something

'Cause some of them are frontin

They didnt know the reason

Emotion in the end made it feel like revolution

And yeah, yeah, you can yell out your brains

I tell you right now, we got eight years of chains

Hook:

So hurry up because I'm runnin out of clip

Runnin out of time

Runnin out of clip

Runnin out of time

Runnin out of clip

Runnin out of time

Runnin out of clip (What)

Runnin out of time

Chorus

Nineteen-ninety-seven, reduction of a nation

The government is slayin, new laws is what you're facin

Next comes the clonin, they're makin new creation

Secretly forming soldiers of you and they station

No more free education on former segregation

Politics's about affirmative activation

So make a run for the border

Caught by the deporter

The immigration caught you but you got to leave your daughter

We are slowly being slaughtered

So be prepared for the new world order

Yeah, yeah, you can yell out your brains

I tell you right now, we got eight years of chains

Hook

Chorus

Year two-thousand, what's it really holdin

Or is it really right, live beyond on what you're knowing

Or is it that technology is what keeps on going

Could it be that the end of time is what I'm showing

I don't see any grass growin

Everything's conquered, we're running out of land

And goddamn yo, I'm runnin out of clip

I'm almost out of time

Runnin out of

Damn, I'm almost out of time

We could all try now but just look up in the sky

We ain't got no ozone left, we are gonna die

Crime and corruption, is the only season

Is it 'cause the reason is that we out of time
