[00:00.48] riot
[00:01.87] Yo Serj, pass me that lighter
[00:12.25] Yeah... yeah, yeah!
[00:16.22] Flowers, smiling through the battlefield!
[00:20.47] The break is over man, I'm back with the ink pen
[00:23.68] Like Ali bomaye okay I'm on my second wind
[00:25.93] Used to roll dice when the luck was on my side man
[00:28.57] Four-five-six, walked away with a grand man
[00:31.33] Seen many blocks turn to the Twilight Zone
[00:33.47] D.A. on the case like Sherlock Holmes
[00:36.11] My old high school sweetheart started sniffin a bone
[00:38.68] For the right bag she deep throat, deeper than a baritone
[00:41.68] I caught you off guard, this verse is unexpected, check it
[00:43.98] Like when I rhymed on Big Pun's record, check it
[00:47.21] I got a swagger that cut any rapper mind over matter
[00:49.43] Lyrical dagger like alcohol I'm bad for your liver
[00:52.06] Quiver, shiver body temperature get found in Hudson River
[00:54.76] Deliver a message to your miss you won't be comin over
[00:57.22] And if you on the street tonight, see that ReFugee logo
[01:00.41] We beam around the world like satellite
[01:02.32] It's them hip-hop boys, turn your radio down
[01:04.64] It's the rock 'n roll boys, turn your radio down
[01:07.52] It's them reggae boys, turn your radio down
[01:10.34] Neighbors mind your business
[01:12.84] It's a riot again! The world is getting nervous
[01:17.61] So we travel again! Main journey's the unconscious
[01:23.17] It's a riot again! The world is getting nervous
[01:28.44] And so we travel again! Main journey's the unconscious
[01:33.92] Come rooooooooock with me~!
[01:36.07] I got the music on the block with me
[01:38.53] Come chill on the spoooooot with me
[01:40.72] And just laugh in spree
[01:44.07] Yeah you're right, we got enough for everyone
[01:46.90] So get all your friends and your families and come along
[01:49.44] Move to the beat that's all we do we got Jerusalem
[01:52.14] Everyday we offer praises like King Solomon
[01:54.54] Ain't gon' hurt ye, don't be nervous
[01:57.29] I'm your guardian angel, know you purpose
[01:59.98] And if I look at you low, if I should make it
[02:02.53] Believe me, I leave you, show you how to make it
[02:05.03] (Hung up high, in the M-I)
[02:07.58] (Double-S-I, S-S-I)
[02:10.13] (P-P-I, three-piece tie)
[02:12.84] (Wanna see me die so the heavens they cry)
[02:15.39] It's them hip-hop boys, turn your radio down
[02:17.87] It's the rock 'n roll boys, turn your radio down
[02:20.46] It's them reggae boys, turn your radio down
[02:23.28] Neighbors mind your business
[02:25.98] It's a riot! Riot! Riot! Riot!
[02:30.66] From the train to the plane, security check
[02:33.43] From the bridge to the tunnel, security check
[02:35.98] It's a riot again! The world is getting nervous
[02:41.30] So we travel again! Main journey's the unconscious
[02:46.49] It's a riot again! The world is getting nervous
[02:51.76] And so we travel again! Main journey's the unconscious
[02:57.02] I was down in Texas; drivin wreckless
[03:00.05] Police stop me, axe me for my license (oh yeah)
[03:02.95] Registration so I played him some Elvis
[03:06.43] He let me go, then I lit off the chalice
[03:08.96] I said if things don't change, we headed for the Arma-ged-deon
[03:15.44] And the great dragon with seven head, ten horns, at the Arma-ged-deon
[03:20.99] Listen to the choir children
[03:30.26] The matterings of all matter
[03:31.22] Masters and their extended batters
[03:32.67] Internet intelligence for investments for the natural world
[03:35.61] Their divestments; truth is knowledge
[03:38.22] Although bi-polar if it's attainment is equitable
[03:39.88] Man's mirrors face the flesh but hide the spirit
[03:42.48] in opposite worlds; vision can only be attained universally
[03:45.40] Lamps of varied sizes and shapes carrying different shades
[03:49.36] All having the propensity to illuminate
[03:50.81] Let's ruminate on realization that the means is the end
[03:54.45] The Earth's water is mirroring the stream-of-consciousness
[03:57.29] The dead being reborn as flowers smiling through the battlefields
[04:00.86] It's them hip-hop boys, turn your radio down
[04:03.46] It's the rock 'n roll boys, turn your radio down
[04:06.30] (Flowers, smiling through the battlefield!)
[04:11.43] It's a riot again! The world is getting nervous
[04:16.59] So we travel again! Main journey's the unconscious
[04:21.79] It's a riot again! The world is getting nervous
[04:27.07] And so we travel again! Main journey's the unconscious
[04:33.48] It's a riot again! The world is getting nervous
[04:38.65] So we travel again! Main journey's the unconscious
[04:43.90] It's a riot again! The world is getting nervous
[04:49.06] And so we travel again! Main journey's the unconscious
