American Rebelution
The Lacs Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And to the Republic for which it stands
One nation, under God indivisible
With liberty and justice for all
It's about that time
It's about that time
It's about that time
Yeah, American revolution
A bunch of rowdy ass rednecks comin' up out them wood works
Savin' up all our paychecks, pumpin' up on that good herb
Holy jeans and muddy boots, yeah, you can check my footwork
I'm takin' names, it's plain to see, I'm kickin' ass 'til my foot hurts
It's time to ride and I'm on the scene, all the way live, I'm on the beam
I'm rollin' up, not holdin' up, I'm hoppin' out, tryna see the scene
Grab your guns, grab your knife, one more move, it's on tonight
Back us down, prepare to fight, country folks, we'll unite
Who y'all think y'all are? Yeah, you know we run this
Hopin' D.C, talkin' all that dumb shit
Rich nigga out the way, workin' man pave the way
'Cause we ain't gonna sit around and get pushed down another day
And did I mention that we ain't gonna listen
To another too big crooked ass politician?
Let's take our country back, I think I got the solution
It's the American revolution
Get a beatbox in this king's practice, own up, 'bout to get beat
Hope you don't think that we just evolve, what you thinkin', time to crawl
Boy, that thirty ounce, got a big kick and them crosshairs don't miss shit
Don't take too much for no city slick in his skinny jeans and them weird kicks
Mind you, only leave us 'lone, that's your best bet
Man, I don't think y'all wanna be messin' 'round with them rednecks
Pissed off them outlaws, don't play nice, don't mind laws
Sneak around and hunt ya down, y'all get it now?
We stand tall
Hit on the folks, don't like my style, I creep on by when the girl gets smile
Take a big boy swig and a homemade shot and lose ya down that country mile
Rebel people, y'all don't mind what we doin', when you see us comin' through
The American revolution
The opening lyrics of The Lacs's song American Rebelution allude to the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America with "I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, One nation, under God indivisible, With liberty and justice for all." That being said, the song presents a different perspective on the idea of patriotism and allegiance to the USA. The lyrics indicate that the present system with its politicians and policies doesn't represent the real hard-working people of the country. It's a call to arms that asks Americans to band together and take their country back as part of the American Revolution.
The rest of the song talks about a group of rowdy rebels who are "savin' up all our paychecks, pumpin' up on that good herb", wearing "holy jeans and muddy boots," seemingly living the Southern outlaw lifestyle. They are ready to fight anyone who challenges them and see themselves as the real patriots who won't be pushed down by politicians or any other group that tries to stifle their way of living.
American Rebelution embodies the spirit of many Southern Americans who feel misunderstood and forgotten in modern-day America. It proclaims individualism, freedom, and a willingness to stand and fight for what is right according to the sentiments of everyday Americans. It is a call to arms, a battle cry to bring people together, and a celebration of their roots, all set against the backdrop of traditional country and rap music.

I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America
I promise my loyalty to the flag of my country, America
And to the Republic for which it stands
And to the free and democratic country that the flag represents
One nation, under God indivisible
We are one country under God, united and unbreakable
With liberty and justice for all
Everyone has the right to freedom and fairness
It's about that time
It's the right moment for change
Yeah, American revolution
An uprising of proud and patriotic Americans
A bunch of rowdy ass rednecks comin' up out them wood works
A group of unruly and passionate individuals emerging from rural areas
Savin' up all our paychecks, pumpin' up on that good herb
Saving money to support our cause and using marijuana to fuel our energy
Holy jeans and muddy boots, yeah, you can check my footwork
Our attire may be unconventional, but we are ready for action
I'm takin' names, it's plain to see, I'm kickin' ass 'til my foot hurts
I am making a record of those who stand in our way, and fighting until I cannot anymore
It's time to ride and I'm on the scene, all the way live, I'm on the beam
It's time to take action, and I am fully and energetically ready
I'm rollin' up, not holdin' up, I'm hoppin' out, tryna see the scene
I am arriving ready for action and seeking out the situation
Grab your guns, grab your knife, one more move, it's on tonight
Be prepared for a fight, and one more provocation will cause us to take action
Back us down, prepare to fight, country folks, we'll unite
Don't try to intimidate us, we will come together and fight as country people
Who y'all think y'all are? Yeah, you know we run this
We are in charge, don't pretend otherwise
Hopin' D.C, talkin' all that dumb shit
Y'all in Washington, D.C. are saying foolish things and hoping we don't notice
Rich nigga out the way, workin' man pave the way
The wealthy have no say, the working class makes the decisions
'Cause we ain't gonna sit around and get pushed down another day
We won't tolerate being oppressed any longer
And did I mention that we ain't gonna listen
In case you forgot, we won't be silenced
To another too big crooked ass politician?
We won't listen to any more dishonest politicians
Let's take our country back, I think I got the solution
We need to regain control of our country and I have an idea of how to do it
Get a beatbox in this king's practice, own up, 'bout to get beat
Listen closely to this message, because it's about to get real
Hope you don't think that we just evolve, what you thinkin', time to crawl
Don't underestimate us, we are not to be messed with and it's time for you to back down
Boy, that thirty ounce, got a big kick and them crosshairs don't miss shit
My firearm has a strong and deadly impact, and I am a skilled marksman
Don't take too much for no city slick in his skinny jeans and them weird kicks
Don't assume that some city dweller in weird clothing can take us on
Mind you, only leave us 'lone, that's your best bet
It's in your best interest to leave us alone and not provoke us
Man, I don't think y'all wanna be messin' 'round with them rednecks
You don't want to mess with us country folks
Pissed off them outlaws, don't play nice, don't mind laws
We are angry and rebellious, we won't follow rules and won't act friendly
Sneak around and hunt ya down, y'all get it now?
We will move covertly and track down those who wrong us
We stand tall
We are proud and unbroken
Hit on the folks, don't like my style, I creep on by when the girl gets smile
If anyone disagrees with us, we will ignore them and keep moving forward
Take a big boy swig and a homemade shot and lose ya down that country mile
Drink some moonshine and lose yourself in the country atmosphere
Rebel people, y'all don't mind what we doin', when you see us comin' through
Fellow rebels, don't worry about what we're doing, join us when you see us
The American revolution
This is the start of an American revolution
