Katalyst - Satisfied Lyrics
Hey yoLights, camera, tragedy, comedy, romanceYou better dance from your fighting stanceOr you'll never have a fighting chanceIn the rat raceWhere the referee's son started way in advanceBut still you living the American DreamSilk PJ's, sheets and down pillowsWho the ***** would want to wake up?You got it good like hot sex after the break upYour four car garage it's just more space to take upYou even bought your mom a new whip scrap the jalopyThousand dollar habit, million dollar hobbyYou a success story everybody want to copyBut few work for it, most get jerked for itIf you think that you could ignore it, you're ignorantA fat wallet still never made a man freeThey say to eat good, yo, you gotta swallow your prideBut dead that game plan, I'm not satisfied[Chorus]The poor get worked, the rich get richerThe world gets worse, do you get the picture?The poor gets dead, the rich get depressedThe ugly get mad, the pretty get stressedThe ugly get violent, the pretty get goneThe old get stiff, the young get stepped onWhoever told you that it was all good liedSo throw your fists up if you not satisfied{*Singing*}Are you satisfied?I'm not satisfiedHey yo, the air's still staleThe anthrax got my Ole Earth wearing a mask and gloves to get a mealI know a older guy that lost twelve close peeps on 9-1-1While you kicking up punchlines and punsMan ***** that shit, this is serious bizBy the time Bush is done, you won't know what time it isIf it's war time or jail time, time for promisesAnd time to figure out where the enemy isThe same devils that you used to love to hateThey got you so gassed and shook now, you scared to debateThe same ones that traded books for gunsSmuggled drugs for fundsAnd had fun letting off forty-oneBut now it's all about NYPD capsAnd Pentagon bumper stickersBut yo, you still a niggaIt ain't right them cops and them firemen diedThe shit is real tragic, but it damn sure ain't magicIt won't make the brutality disappearIt won't pull equality from behind your earIt won't make a difference in a two-party countryIf the president cheats, to win another four yearsNow don't get me wrong, there's no place I'd rather beThe grass ain't greener on the other genocideBut tell Huey Freeman don't forget to cut the lawnAnd uproot the weeds'cause I'm not satisfied[Chorus]All this genocideIs not justifiedAre you satisfied?I'm not satisfiedYo, poison pushers making paper off of pipe dreamsThey turned hip-hop to a get-rich-quick schemeThe rich minorities control the governmentBut they would have you believe we on the same teamSo where you stand, huh?What do you stand for?Sit your ass down if you don't know the answerSerious as cancer, this jam demands your undivided attentionEven on the dance floorGrab the bull by the horns, the bucks by the antlersGet yours, what're you sweating the next man for?Get down, feel good to this, let it rideBut until we all free, I'll never be satisfied[Chorus: x 2]Are you satisfied?whoever told you that it was all good liedI'm not satisfiedThrow your fists up if you not satisfiedAre you satisfied?Whoever told you that it was all good liedI'm not satisfiedSo throw your fists upSo throw your fists upThrow your fists up
