World Tour Sessions

[Intro]

(Explosion, scratching)

"The new world order, because the new world doesn't appear that orderly..."

(In this world today...)

[Chuck D]

Aight, I'ma let you know how trips 'round the world go

That's right, world tour sessions

We're gonna warm it up just like this

Come on, check it out

[Verse 1]

Behold, the whole planet upside down

I put it down, shuttin' down disco clowns

I get around, this rap game's like a sport

Been through two passports, ass stay up in airports

Black man still gettin' no support

Compensation we ain't seein', split by Europeans

Damn treated less than human beings, no matter

Africa, Brazil, East St. Louis or the Caribbean

Traveled the seven seas, rocked many races

Spread the cash cleaned trash in a lotta low places

Seen the look of love on many mad faces

When I rhymed about the time and not the paper chases

People all over the world givin' mad respect

When I identified who the government wrecked

What's the sound scan? Ask the company rep

They don't care, they just about keepin' their checks

[Chorus]

Round and around and around we go

Where the world's headed, nobody knows

Round and around and around we go

Where the world's headed, nobody knows

Round and around and around we go

Where the world's headed, nobody knows

Round and around and around we go

Where the world's headed, nobody knows

[Verse 2]

Hear the crime rhyme created a lotta robots

Can the real lyric fix the shit that the time forgot?

Loops gotcha brain gettin' locked loaded up with words

That never meant a lot, and you can't call the cops

And y'all don't really know, and y'all don't hear me through

Takes a nation of big brains to break up that flow

And the game ain't changed but the heads be rearranged

In danger, my language is rappin' in anger

I be bangin' so I point my finger

While we sleep, racists set us up like sheep

Every time I go someplace, slaves in my face

Black people in a plantation state

No control of our soul and wouldn't know our fate

Now am I wrong to hate hate?

38 countries, 51 states, now you tell me

Who in the world gonna compensate?

100 million lost, make a nigga wait

Gotta beg the queen to get food on the plate

[Chorus]

Round and around and around we go

Where the world's headed, nobody knows

Round and around and around we go

Where the world's headed, nobody knows

Round and around and around we go

Where the world's headed, nobody knows

Round and around and around we go

Where the world's headed, nobody knows
