Letra
[Estrofa 1]
I been flippin' through my timeline
Tryna' get my mind right
My city cryin' out
I got to cool down
But I'm under pressure
Cookin with my crisco
Look at where my fists go
A renegade when I'm in a rage
I got to cool down
But I'm under pressure
[Pre-Estribillo]
I keep my hands dirty
My mind clean
Got a new agenda
With a new dream
I'm kickin out the old regime
Liberation, Elevation, Education
America
You a lie
But the whole word bout to testify
I said the whole word bout to touch the fire
And the tables bout to
T-T-T-Tables bout to
[Estribillo]
Turn!
Turn!
Turn!
Ain't no stoppin til it -
Turn!
Turn!
Turn!
Know it's time for it to -
Turn!
Turn!
Turn!
We can't wait for it to
Turn
Turn
Yeah the table bout to turn
[Estrofa 2]
It's a boomerang boomin back
You laid an egg now it's bout to hatch
Your gas lightin bout to meet your match
You f*ck up the kitchen
Then you should do the dishes
Burnin down plantations
This ain't parkin I don't need no validation
I light sage when I'm in a rage
I don't need permission
I got my intuition
[Pre-Estribillo]
Hands dirty
Mind clean
A different vision
With a new dream
We kickin out the old regime
Liberation, Elevation, Education
I said America
Yous a lie
But the whole word bout to testify
I said the whole word bout to testify
We gon watch the table
Now we gon watch the table
[Estribillo]
Turn!
Turn!
Turn!
That's right
Turn!
Turn!
Turn!
We got to -
Turn!
Turn!
Turn!
Waited too long you gotta -
Turn!
Just Turn!
Just Turn!
We see it all now!
Turn!
Said the tables bout to turn!
Turn!
(outro)
Tables Turn!
Tables Turn!
Tables Turn!
Tables Turn!
