Chorus:
  Children, groovin, women, confusion
  Then go away, it's time to understand
  Everyone's got to make a livin
  Children, groovin, women, confusion
  Then go away, it's time to understand
  Everyone's got to make a livin
  Nineteen-ninety-two and, you and I were fightin
  LAPD beatings got the whole world frontin
  My man Rodney King and the Reginald ?Deeney?
  You could look for justice but I bet you won't find any
  Because people getting beatin, news keep repeatin
  Chaos and anger, just surely peakin
  Yo everybody's runnin, some of them are gunnin
  Avalanche the block, feel the anger, wantin something
  'Cause some of them are frontin
  They didnt know the reason
  Emotion in the end made it feel like revolution
  And yeah, yeah, you can yell out your brains
  I tell you right now, we got eight years of chains
  Hook:
  So hurry up because I'm runnin out of clip
  Runnin out of time
  Runnin out of clip
  Runnin out of time
  Runnin out of clip
  Runnin out of time
  Runnin out of clip (What)
  Runnin out of time
  Chorus
  Nineteen-ninety-seven, reduction of a nation
  The government is slayin, new laws is what you're facin
  Next comes the clonin, they're makin new creation
  Secretly forming soldiers of you and they station
  No more free education on former segregation
  Politics's about affirmative activation
  So make a run for the border
  Caught by the deporter
  The immigration caught you but you got to leave your daughter
  We are slowly being slaughtered
  So be prepared for the new world order
  Yeah, yeah, you can yell out your brains
  I tell you right now, we got eight years of chains
  Hook
  Chorus
  Year two-thousand, what's it really holdin
  Or is it really right, live beyond on what you're knowing
  Or is it that technology is what keeps on going
  Could it be that the end of time is what I'm showing
  I don't see any grass growin
  Everything's conquered, we're running out of land
  And goddamn yo, I'm runnin out of clip
  I'm almost out of time
  Runnin out of
  Damn, I'm almost out of time
  We could all try now but just look up in the sky
  We ain't got no ozone left, we are gonna die
  Crime and corruption, is the only season
  Is it 'cause the reason is that we out of time
  Chorus (2x)
