Ab-Soul - A Rebellion Lyrics






[Verse 1:]
See, I just wanna take my chopper
And aim it right at that copper
Just locked up my partner
...they can't stop us

I'm prolly all alone on this one [x4]

[Bridge: Ab-Soul & Alori Joh]
Inhale, exhale
Inhale, exhale

I'm prolly all alone on this one [x2]
Prolly all on this one [x2]

[Hook:]
Who's bold enough to rebel?
Re... bel
Re...
Who's bold enough to rebel?
Re... bel
Re...

[Hook: Alori Joh]
That's the joint, that's the jam
Turn it up, play it again
That's the joint, that's the jam
Turn it up, play it again
That's the joint
That's the jam
Turn it up
Play it again

I might all alone on this one [x9]

[Verse 2:]
I just wanna grab that heater
Run right in the cathedral
Aim it right at that preacher
For miseducating the people

I might all alone on this one [x4]

[Bridge: Ab-Soul & Alori Joh]
Inhale, exhale
Inhale, exhale

[Verse 3:]
I just wanna take that banger
And aim it right at my Maker
For placing me 'round all this danger
I can't even trust my neighbor

I know I'm all alone on this one [x5]

[Bridge: Ab-Soul & Alori Joh]
Inhale, exhale
Inhale, exhale

I know I'm all alone on this one [x3]

[Hook:]
Who's bold enough to rebel?
Re... bel
Re... bel

[Hook: Alori Joh]
That's the joint, that's the jam
Turn it up, play it again
That's the joint, that's the jam
Turn it up, play it again
That's the joint
That's the jam
Turn it up
Play it again

  41. S.... ....

    This song read my mind

  42. S.... T....

    damn straight

  43. A.... A....

    i used to listen to soul alot but then he is saying we cant think for our own yet he is saying in god i trust just he mere reference to god just shows me he is just like everyone else.going by what other people think instead of making his mind up.i dont blame him i blame the system.the vatican controls everything.WAKE THE FUCK UP

    A.... A....

    +Anon Anonymous What i'm hearing you say is that you can't think for yourself. You say that Ab-Soul referencing god makes him like everyone else? Do you know how many people there are on this world? How many brains? How many individuals? You are the one choosing not to make your mind up friend. Because what I see here, is a person, that self appointed him or herself as "Anonymous". Regurgitating the same messages and "going by what other people think instead of making his mind up." I would recommend you reread the messages you send, or have someone read them back to you from an outside perspective, unless you mind sounding like a fool. Don't talk about it, be about it. Also read about it, because for some reason I think you will have not gotten this far in the passage.

    A.... A....

    +Anon Anonymous believing in God, or the concept of a creator does not make you guy by what everyone else is going. in fact, athiesm is on the rise. and maybe he made his own decision by himself through his own trains of thought that he believes in God.

    A.... A....

    ^ i think you meant to aim that at the original comment, i wasnt saying being athiest is not thinking for yourself im just saying that thinking for yourself leads to different things for everyone you can't say someone's not thinking for themselves if they believe in Christianity and got to that conclusion by their own accord

  44. J.... F....

    Favourite song on the album

  45. E.... ....

    Listen to Eminem-Murder, Murder. The beat sound exactly the same, except this one is sped up.

    E.... ....

    @***** I Love You bae

  46. N.... ....

    50 ways to leave you lover beat sample, dope !!

  47. B.... B....

    All the girls I know be down with lord friezA and shit. But I be like yo look I can stretch my body parts can friezA do that no. Why because friezA ain't no man.

  48. B.... B....

    Grownin up as a namek this song really speaks to me , cause i can' t find one loyal girl on my team that knows what I'm talking bout. Niggues be thinkin im like drake but naw im open minded them niggues with that drake philosophy can stfu. I don't do drugstore cause I can only drink water.

  49. C.... W....

    them synth chords at the beginning *chills*

    C.... W....

    +Cheif Womack And when Alori is singing

    C.... W....

    Cheif Womack duuude lol frlz

    C.... W....

    Gives you that 80s feel

  50. O.... ....

    I've been trying so hard to find out what is the speech at the very end of the song. Does anyone non what it is??

    O.... ....

    It is Che Guevara's speech in 1965 condemning imperialism

  51. A.... T....

    I speak to everyone of all beliefs rather you're christian or atheist or neither. But please stop looking at every christian the same way. Christianity is supposed to a religion full of love for every neighbor no matter what. Real Christianity means staying humble, giving to people without asking any in return. Its a religion of peace however nowadays the church has become corrupt and now the true meaning of Christianity is lost beneath their wrongful teachings. I understand you believe that Christianity causes so much violence in the world and hate. However, I'm just letting you know that this is not true Christianity. Read the bible and interpret it for yourselves. The bible is has much more deeper meaning than what most people think. Its not as simple and easy to understand but you have to take on that journey yourself. I'm sorry this comment was so long and I'm tired so there's probably many spelling mistakes but people understand true Christianity is not taught in the churches. Don't be so naive.

    A.... T....

    Hey man just keep to yourself and keep it real.

    A.... T....

    @aljamal truss Thanks so much for taking the time to say that man, it made my day.

    +Wu Child lol word

  62. T.... D....

    There is just a lovely sentiment to this song. I honestly just love the beat but it's really the fact that Alori and Soul are harmonising here on a song where Ab seems to almost be torn up that he's all alone now. 

  63. E.... D....

    this song reminds me of the 80's in a way

    E.... D....

    How old are you? X)

    J.... C....

    Beginning part of Midnight Star's "Follow the Path".

    T.... P....

    um he's blasphemous for a reason, because religion is a load of shit

    T.... P....

    @Nicholas Milverton you missed the meaning of the song he's not an athiests

    T.... P....

    Kdot spits real shit. Even when it seems like he's rapping about whack shit. Its always got a meaning, whether its some sort of oxymoron or metaphor, or he's in perspective. But Kdot spits real too

    T.... P....

    It's not blasphemy if that god can't defend itself or what not

  76. Y.... F....

    dont judge but is this song about a rebellion against religion and God and how no one else is with him

    Y.... F....

    Yes. But it applies to more than that as well.

    Y.... F....

    i know tht now. he just rebelling against everything in this song

    Y.... F....

    I love it.

    Y.... F....
