Man Plans God Laughs

[Professor Griff]

God damn, damn man

Man laughs at God’s plan

God laughs at man's trash

Man plans, God laughs

[Verse 1: Chuck D]

Let it be, what it is

Fight the power for the kids

Who don't know, you may ask yourself

Figured out

Bad news is bad news

The damn plan got you confused

Hood news, no good news

Ghettoburbs, see em as views

[Hook]

Am I a radical?

Am I a radical?

Am I a radical?

Am I a radical?

Am I a radical?

Am I a radical?

Am I a radical?

Am I a radical?

Am I a radical?

Am I a pacifist?

Am I scared to fight?

I ain't askin' you

Am I grown?

Do I stand up?

Am I owned?

[Verse 2: Chuck D]

Let it be, speaking words

But no wisdom, make em dumb

Damn the plan that man made

Threw the monkey wrench

Praise their faves, what they gave

Get attention nowadays

It's the way they get paid

To get saved, pray to a stage

[Half Pint]

Do it for the culture, do it for the youth

Do it for the culture, do it for the youth

Do it for the culture, do it for the youth

Do it for the culture, do it for the youth

[Hook]

Am I a radical?

Am I a pacifist?

Am I scared to fight?

I ain't askin' you

Am I grown?

Do I stand up?

Am I owned?

[Verse 3: Chuck D]

Be the change you wanna see

And wanna be, let it be

Revolution, what it is

Bring the noise

'89 another summer

We to me, we to me

'89 another summer

We to me, we to me

[Half Pint]

Do it for the youth

Do it for the youth

Do it for the youth

Do it for the youth

Do it for the youth
