M.O.V.E. Lyrics by Micranots

Obelisk Movements

2000

[Verse 1: I Self]
Osage Ave. Philly '85, May, televised
MOVE burnt indigent militant genocide
Thick smoke and heat
Third-degree burns across the feet
50 caliber machine M-60 rifle gleam
Thirty-0-six sniper silencer assassin
22 millimeter armor piercing through fashion
All that to "apprehend" African Radical Naturalist
Opposed the system
What it represents
All life is sacred, every day is holy
Infinite
Acts toward civilians committed, non-members
Convicted
In '78 offer altercations
Provoke
The Philly po-po gestapo
Corrupt
Release the bomb, evil beast
Meddling
Holding the black beast
Devil and colleagues in a hell-storm
Metallic bullet rainstorm
Man Down
One time, shot to the neck, Philly fire culprit
Nine MOVE men get third-degree murder
Nine people can't bust one strap
Urban Warfare
Attack from the city, caught in the crosshairs

[Hook]
M.O.V.E.:
Minds Over Violent Existence
M.O.V.E
Speak out for Justice, Justice
M.O.V.E
This could be you at any instance
M.O.V.E
When you show enough resistance

[Verse 2: I Self]
Installing high power speakers up to the residence
Speaking every minute on the status of incarcerated comrades and brethren
Keeping the press afoot, campaigning documents to the media, all relevant
Filing appeals in court, confrontational sport
Government ??? and life support for lives lost
That they cause at all cost
Neighbors complaining about the heavy noise through the speaker they was straining
Eviction Petitions and reasons for the pigs to glisten
Vendetta expedition, foul mission
Listen!
Full Eradication. Arrest wasn't the plan
They were fully accessible at all times
Overstand, it's conspiracy at all levels, local and federal
Wealth, Influence, Race and Power equal better jewels, better food, better protection
Way to bend the rules
Poverty stricken niggas get ridiculed
Pitiful
MOVE willing to negotiate and leave peacefully as long as they would face their arrests
They stressed
We demand innocent people released on the streets
But the city wasn't having that in their habitat

[Hook x 2]

[Verse 3: I Self]
The Quiet before the storm, police barricaded
64,000 gallons of water flood the basement
High explosives blew the front of the crib
Tear gas was ?? and thousand rounds to murder little kids
37.5 pounds of C4 supplied by the FBI
Domestic War
No Detour
The fire burned for 10 to 12 hours
Consumed 61 houses, firemen watching and clowning
Repeatedly they tried to exit
Deliberately police opened fire, protesting
No Survivor or Witness to escape
Inhale smoke, burns and scrapes
A miracle, why they cover up your mistakes
The city claim that MOVE fired first
But no trace of automatic weapons in the burnt down place
It's Ill
They dropped the bomb on black unarmed
The Branch-Davidians and John Dupont can lounge
For days at a time relax, function, unwind
Babies burnt alive and we're supposed to be calm?


[Hook x 2]

[Outro]
