ITAL (Roses) |
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 |
