| Black Panther, Black Panther, what do you see?
|
| I see a dream ITAL watching over me
|
| Back nigga
|
| Yeah, hey, can we get a little break
|
| From the cocaine and the kilos
|
| Aiight nigga, we know
|
| Aiight nigga, we know
|
| Can we get a break from the strippers on the pill
|
| Aiight nigga, we know
|
| Okay nigga, we know
|
| Hey shawty, ain’t no future in no gang-bang
|
| And ain’t no manhood in no bang-bang
|
| Ain’t no honor cleanin interstates inside a chain-gang
|
| Know some rap niggas put that shit inside your mainframe
|
| Pills make you stupid and liquor do the same thing
|
| 'Raris too expensive and they way too hard to maintain
|
| Get yourself a Camry, «nigga said a Camry?»
|
| Watch that ho depreciate and then you’ll understand me
|
| It’s called being fiscally responsible
|
| Don’t let these lying images up in hip-hop here conquer you
|
| The TV’s not your father fool, that video’s not your momma
|
| Try your best to be a man and your worst to be a monster
|
| May we have some roses for the ladies
|
| A little appreciation for the gentlemen
|
| And here’s some kisses for the babies
|
| Some peacenality for the whole wide-wide-wide world
|
| More patience to the youth, sympathy for the poor
|
| Empathy for the old, more justice for the down and pressed
|
| Treat no liar ITAL, AY-YAH!
|
| I know you’re sayin', «Lupe rappin 'bout the same shit»
|
| Well, that’s 'cause ain’t shit changed, bitch
|
| And please don’t excuse my language
|
| Cause I would hate for you to misrepresent
|
| The true expression of my anguish
|
| And by this far I ain’t shocked, upset, or appalled
|
| I’m ashamed, bitch
|
| I can’t listen if you ain’t sayin shit
|
| And recognize all this emptiness is dangerous
|
| Ain’t buildin up they confidence, we teachin 'em that they ain’t shit
|
| If they ain’t got the latest that they saw on someone famous
|
| Mercy of the Lord on this double-edged sword
|
| Instead of askin where the hoes is
|
| Maybe maybe we could ask for roses
|
| Called the President a terrorist
|
| Corporate sponsors like, how the fuck you gon' embarrass us?
|
| Ain’t my fault, I was just repeatin this
|
| Professor emeritus from America
|
| But my tone was like an Afghani kid without a home
|
| Blew that bitch up with a drone
|
| An Iraqi with no daddy, Palestinian throwing stones
|
| The fuck you think they call him, I’mma leave that all alone
|
| Cause this, the focus on this new shit is that hopeless
|
| Place that I was born into systematic brokeness
|
| Took that downpression and developed it to dopeness
|
| It’s that great American rap-rap ferocious |
