Now, this happened during The Struggle Continues tourA.K.A time that we double the venuesDoors open at ten, you should all bring your tentLine up outside the door, night before, making sure you get in (Come on!)Now you know when, let me tell you 'bout how it went downWhen we came to this little ass townIn the middle of nowhere, man how did we go there?I can't recall the way, though it feels like yesterdayAnd the people went crazy, the crowd's in a frenzyThe show's like a carneval!Hush when I bust, 'preme with a pen, seated againEmbee putting in work cus y'all need to be beaten again!Trust me it's us, back at it like smack addictsStuck with a bad habit, turn fans to fanaticsOn a victory lap, we stop by in Pop-eyeI drop my last 16, so sick teens will stop write!A vicious comeback, never ever left, but it had a restNow they want to arrest, cus we kill and molestThese so called emcees, so U-turn or you burnYou're not fucking with us!Who's fucking with this? Pop in a disc, listen compareTo the rest of the bullshit, I ain't dissing, I swearI'm just telling the truth, y'all ain't fading the troopOn the mike or the mpc, the stage or the boothAnd if pages could shoot they would aim for the headOf the biz wouldn't miss so we pray for the deadAnd then kiss'em good-bye, listen don't cryOn a Bob Dylan mission they were fixin' to dieNothing could help'em they murdered themselvesWhen they went against usUs - you know the name: the mighty Looptroop RockersTravel around the world true school globetrottersThere's no debate that we raise the stakesEverywhere we pass through we blaze up the stageWe're on a world tour with the whole entourageAnd your favourite band's merch stand is the true starsBut if we come to a place where you're notLog on to the webshop we accept all cardsAnytime, anywhere yo they murdered themselvesWhen they went against usAfter load out we rolled out, celebrated in the vanThough the speakers where blown out, the jammin' beganSo we drinking and laughing like always on tourAnd I'm thinking - I'm happy we on our way home!But then Shumi pulled over - hold up we can't go!I left my wallet in el segundo...Fast turn around, back into town, floor it, let's race!We'll make it in time, they shut down soon, but we safeThe people looked crazy, bonfires blazingWhat is this, a carneval?We parked the bus about a block awayThe whole crew got out heading for the place we rocked todayPeople blocked our way so we got in the backdoorThis shit is too dark yo where's it at pro?I swear I left it between the soymilk and the vegan spreadsUnderneath Preme's headbandShow money, merch money - shit I'm dead...Man I saw the promoter outside. Trying to hide?Open the door - guess what we saw - man I ain't lying!The people were crazy they're feasting on babiesIn this bloody carneval!Literally - picture it! Snacking on baby back ribsLike Timbuktu when chilling with ChordsBut the difference is sickening, - snatching their babiesFrom cribs and then sucking the blood out their poresShocked by the gore, we just watched how they tore theseLittle kids into pieces, chopped up on the floor.I'm down on all fours, almost fainted, gotta play dead...But I found the wallet by a baby, right when they ate it!Now we running like crazy, zombies are chasingParading the carneval!Shiee, we gotta leave press the pedal to the metalThese creatures won't let us go - wanna get us and dead us yoShallow us whole without a sign of remorseStay around one minute more you'll be the next on the main courseIn a corporate world where the leaders will flossWith poor people's muscle - life hittin' all time lowsIn the stock market hustle NASDAQ and Dow Jones.Child labour violating their cosmetic codesNow the world going crazy,Sacrificing its babies - come join in the carneval!A sigh of relief through the bus as we leaveWhat the fuck's going on? What they tryin' to achieve?The same city where you live and you breatheThe system grows fatter and your kids are the feedAnd when I looked through the windshieldI saw this big billboard for the welfare or healthcare systemWas it really real or? It probably said like:This world needs its young! Could've been an ad buster but I read like:This world eats its young!
