| Yeah, Renaissance Child, Bronze Nazareth
|
| Make sure your turban cover your face
|
| We got to air it out, cock and squeeze, give me some room to breath
|
| We be those Huey P’s, watching over little seeds
|
| Air it out, cock and squeeze, vowels to meet the kings
|
| We be those Maccabeez, throwing up angel wings
|
| Pass desert eagles to the last Hebrews
|
| Who got knowledge of the good and evil, we see through the deceiptful
|
| With eyes like a young Ezekiel, a holy people, addicted to a dope needle
|
| The prophecy of a black male as crack sales
|
| We rebel after hearing Joy and Maxwell
|
| So I act like Fidel over Israel
|
| All hail to the nephew of Ismael
|
| I raise Hell, anywhere, any hood that I dwell
|
| Wake up to hearing shootouts and gun smells, burning an L We went from plainmen dwelling in tents, to paying rent
|
| In the project that smell like a pissy snakepit
|
| Put on your warpaint, fatigues and brand new Timbs
|
| Get your glocks out the block, and let’s shoot off limbs
|
| And they snakes when they grin, in they two-door Benz
|
| I’m underground, no spins, and I still got wins
|
| How many records you gon’make about you sitting on rims?
|
| We grown men, better step up your game and drop gems
|
| This ain’t Mos Def, Kanye, Nas or Common
|
| I’m a Sun of Man, Maccabee branch, so pay homage
|
| No conflict, just happen we black and be conscious
|
| Any comments, the hell that we raise, the violence
|
| I’m just honest, true generals move in silence
|
| So when you talk a whole lot you abuse my kindness
|
| All the prayers I gave, God should raise ya’ll out of these graveyards
|
| My eight bars like Master Farrad
|
| Sat in a car, banging Ray Charles, building on bank cards
|
| And while the brainwash, slaving for steam jobs
|
| We had our faith robbed, mothers was chased for us They had Malcolm on phone taps and tape recorders
|
| Who can we trust now? |
| When they don’raped daughters
|
| And manslaughtered the father figure with strong liquor
|
| Meanwhile the angel of death, became my baby sitter
|
| It’s like I’m Nat Turner going through a Bible Scripture
|
| They took our black Jesus, and gave us Caesar’s picture
|
| If cops shoot at niggas, that make us all sinners
|
| So when I grab my AK, I pray the lord forgive us We in the hood, ock, with Enoch walking with us Just pyramid builders, but they don’made us killers
|
| Murdered Pablo and framed us as drug dealers
|
| Took Colombia’s cocaine with no shame
|
| And had Charlie Parker hitting his dope vein
|
| And then it backfired to Kurt Cobain
|
| You do the crime, do the time, you invented the game
|
| I got no I.D., I switched up my government name
|
| All of my thugs love to bang, we be one in the same
|
| I got my sons coming up, so I wanted to change…
|
| We gotta change somewhere man
|
| «All over this country, they cried
|
| Men and women. |
| fathers and mothers
|
| Cried for those who disappeared»
