(Statik Selektah)

Ayo, I seen crooked cops aimin' to please
They'll pop brothers in they backs after they freeze
Innocent people stomped like they in stampedes
They choke out queens, and call 'em chimpanzees
Anybody could get it, what's honor to thieves?
And you ain't even gotta see this shit to believe
They'll call about the way them things happen in threes
Never any better to make then to receive
It's greazy and livin' ain't easy
Ain't no Porgy and Bess, and the story get stretched
As long as any glory is quest, it's purely a test
The moral is the more we invest, the more the return
When excellence is all we accept
Respect that I've earned is testament that surely I'm blessed
Never stress, that's a prerequisite to earlier death
Redemption is mine, exactly what I'm here to collect
If I leave then I'ma exit with a serious rep'
And the one relation of 'Riq is a motivational speaker
No vacationin' either, my dedication is eager
'Nother notch on the belt, it's another lace in the sneaker
I been feelin' myself since I felt the bass in the speaker
I been healin' myself, that's another way to get equal
I'm revealin' myself as another face of the people
All my greatest achievements prevail in the face of evil
All my brothers and sisters, keep willin' so they can see you
