Lyrics
<lyrics> [spoken] Welcome to the first level Literati Our mission is to keep the tradition alive It's up to us It's our responsibility Who else is going to do it?
This is the night Light up a fire in the forge We're not the coins in the coffer of old King George One if by land Two if they come by the sea We'll show 'em we are the true sons of liberty
Punk ass redcoats trying to run the show Telling me what to do and where to go Mount your horse 'cause it's time to tell the world
The British are coming
Smear on the soot Tear up an old deerskin shirt We know this shot will be heard around the world
This is the destiny of all mankind We will shake off these chains and shackles that bind Come on, let's give them everything we have </lyrics>
