How much money would you give to live
Above the law
How many souls would you sell to dwell
Above the law
As long as it’s workin’ in your favor
You love the law
Making our lives a livin’ hell
Above the law
So now man with pen in his hand
Changes the lay and the law of the land
Abe helped out a bit, Martin did what he could
And it might’ve worked out but evil exists
As well as good
Re-invent slavery
Erase the war on poverty
Separate primarily by class
Stealthily, carefuly
Go ahead and ring that bell
And open the market
Do the ones that work the most
Get to put any money in their pocket?
How much money would you give to live
Above the law
How many souls would you sell to dwell
Above the law
As long as it’s workin’ in your favor
You love the law
Making our lives a livin’ hell
Above the law
So now you say we’re all created equal
But the sound of the gavel tells quite another sequel
Black boy on drugs imprisonment, and a heavy fine
White boy on drugs rehab and treatment to restore his mind
Re-invent slavery
Erase the war on poverty
Separate primarily by class
Stealthily, carefully
Go ahead and ring that bell
And open the market
Do the ones that work the most
Get to put any money in their pocket?
How much money would you give to live
Above the law
How many souls would you sell to dwell
Above the law
The game is fixed
Pure poli-tricks
The game is fixed
Pure poli-tricks
Using religion as a deadly weapon
Dealing with me unrighteously
How much money would you give to live
Above the law
How many souls would you sell to dwell
Above the law
As long as it’s workin’ in your favor
You love the law
Making our lives a livin’ hell
Above the law
We can’t live above the law
They can’t live above the law
She can’t feel above the law
He can’t live above the law
Tell ’em he can’t live above the law
I can’t live above the law
No one can’t live above the law
She can’t live above the law
(No one is) No one is above the law
