G.O.V City by Filibusta Rhymes

• Written by 

These are the foundations of our own democracy
This the land we populated and endowed with liberty
And if you listen up to all the bars I spit you'll see
Constitutional republic for the people comma we
First we won the revolution, saved ourselves from persecution
Flash forward and we writing us a brand-new Constitution
But before, ignore that founding document before and
Rip the articles to particles and then we start a new
See the A of C could never raise an army or the funds
After Shay's rebellion they knew that it was done
Now Fed'list 10 and Brutus 1 were going head to head
The factions balance out each other, no one ends up dead
Formin' the great compromise, delegation size
Slaves were three-fifths of man in their eyes, that's not cool you guys
President is king in a disguise
Said the Anti-Federalists
Lookin for small government so understandably they're pissed
Natural Rights first draft they miss, so they go and make a list
The bill of rights by Madison the people can be free again.
Free Speech, Free Press, Quartering, done
The best thing since A Ham wrote the other fifty-one
McCulloch versus Maryland and the commerce clause
Sewin' up the holes exposing Constitution's flaws
Congress can balance and check, put a veto in effect
The prez signs treaties, so don't get greedy and give him respect
The courts can interpret, whether appellate or circuit
And thus conclude the duties of all of our branches trifurcate
Sometimes the federal powers go to the state governments
and they get part of their funding from categorical grants
Fed, State, and Local collect, all of our taxes, precept
of rule of law is absolutely critical to protect
If you don't like the way this country works then you can defect
You say there's rappers better than me and you know I'll object
