Let me tell you a story Once upon a time a man got fucked Now how is that for a story Cuz that's the story of black people in America Let me paint a picture of what's waiting for you on the shore You all get to be slaves Split up, sold off, and worked to death A hundred years later…you're fucked A hundred years after that…fucked A hundred years after you get free you still getting fucked out of jobs And shot at by police you see what I'm saying Cuz a crooked cop cruising down the wrong block Can leave it bruised Slain bodies stained black and blue But one shot aimed at just the right spot Can drop an elephant with a twenty-two Cuz a crooked cop cruising down the wrong block Can leave it bruised Slain bodies stained black and blue But one shot aimed at just the right spot Can drop an elephant with a twenty-two (Authentic) Don't stop the hustle if it pay good Crazy you and brothers catching bodies in the same hood Y'all trying to f*ck the ballers career up like Spencer Haywood Y'all should be protecting them niggas and they know that they should My faith pulled me through heavy snow and dust storms I fed the game Saw Horned Frogs, Grizzlies and shooters like he Desmond Bane I measure pain by looking at my past we in better lanes They said a plane came in the eighties then the streets fled with cane The weapon bang and pause that motion It's contact smoking from bars that potent Put you on your ass like you Claudette Colvin If I don't own a hundred percent then the contract broken Not a superstar but a star that's floating This shit ancestral I'm Jesse Owens running the moment gimme my metal Shit I'm Bessie Coleman flyer than most men I can propel you Protect your aura, first of my kind like word to Ethel Waters I want a billie for my first and second daughter This for the future This guy gets it I like him He's getting angry Angry is good Angry gets…shit…done Cuz a crooked cop cruising down the wrong block Can leave it bruised Slain bodies stained black and blue But one shot aimed at just the right spot Can drop an elephant with a twenty-two Cuz a crooked cop cruising down the wrong block Can leave it bruised Slain bodies stained black and blue But one shot aimed at just the right spot Can drop an elephant with a twenty-two Welcome to Hell on Earth, America Home of the lost souls Walking amongst devils and snakes Niggas forgot the code This must be the fifth wave The way they killing they own This Game Of Thrones But when all the pieces fall you got nothing to show Only disgruntled behavior Trapped by your mental enslavement Reach thru cracks of the cement Bloodied up vines in the pavement Echoed from previous decades Niggas hellbent on revenge F*ck friends, need nobody Pac still relevant so I binge Find a means to an end, been writing more Shots ring out and spray the block Infants lore, you can hear the lioness roar The family unit is Pride Mothers carry the weight of the world on their shoulders Promise you'll understand when you get older They been programmed from birth with shitty food options Contaminated drinking water, gun violence, police brutality And trauma after trauma after trauma Do you see progress I count one, two, three African gods in this room Cuz a crooked cop cruising down the wrong block Can leave it bruised Slain bodies stained black and blue But one shot aimed at just the right spot Can drop an elephant with a twenty-two Cuz a crooked cop cruising down the wrong block Can leave it bruised Slain bodies stained black and blue But one shot aimed at just the right spot Can drop an elephant with a twenty-two Ay mother-f*ck a black leader If niggas did what they supposed to do A better tomorrow could be a reality we closer to Don't know if it's love or drama when ya brother approaching you Therefore niggas prepare for war like soldiers do I hope for you overstanding I hope for you peace of mind I hope you live to see ninety I hope that you reached in time It's a lose lose situation the way that these streets designed Yet niggas still try they luck and be wondering why they stuck Cemetery or penitentiary it's meant to be Ain't no convincing me otherwise For that it's f*ck the world with every inch of me Publicize my imperfections, mislead me with misdirection And feed me syringe injections Now deal with this insurrection We come from low income and section eight Treated as second rate, forcing me to be nothing less than great Descendants of a forgotten tribe, expected not to survive But we immortal thru what we jot and we scribe nigga And to make matters worse These dazzling new plantation owners built a pipeline To take our children from school to prison Quicker than a cut can bleed And the lucky ones go from school to the NFL Where they don't even let them niggas take a knee Cuz a crooked cop cruising down the wrong block Can leave it bruised Slain bodies stained black and blue But one shot aimed at just the right spot Can drop an elephant with a twenty-two Cuz a crooked cop cruising down the wrong block Can leave it bruised Slain bodies stained black and blue But one shot aimed at just the right spot Can drop an elephant with a twenty-two Lusting for liberty plus the liquidity Though we get fucked like polygamy Pushing, provoking you must wanna trigger me You should just let a nigga be But want the smoke cuz you puffed up from bigotry So I snuck in this cig with me Butt of your jokes like you just took a dig at me Know I'll dust you deliberately Must be the misery, must be indignity What if I bruise cuz it touches me lividly What if abuse and injustice embittered me What if this two-two-three busted as bitterly What if I choose to go f*ck you up visibly All in plain view so your cousin and kid can see Then on the news see a dozen acquitted me Would you recuse that good judge unequivocally What if I do to you just what you did to me What if I stoop on your jugular with a knee Would you dispute and erupt from iniquity Would you rebuke the corruption politically What would this do to disrupt your civility What would this do to adjust your virility Would you refute the unjust and the villainy Would you be mute and be hushed if they killing me Or did they turn ya compassionless Court is adjourned for a pacifist I've seen you yearn for unhappiness That reaffirmed what I learned from a masochist We cannot earn from a capitalist We'll get infirmed and interred from their avarice Before we turn into ash in this bitch Let 'em burn like they burnt Minneapolis How much longer can we afford to wait War is upon us Let the motherfucker burn Let it all burn
