I didn't understand back then When I was young kid on the block Looking at the homies pushing rock With the game on lock But the cops always had to knock Down the doors looking for drugs in store Paused my Nintendo peeped out the window sirens soundin' Souls was astoundin' Didn't know what was going on I kept hearing that sad song Slavery still here G Still under white supremacy But it made a man out of me by the time I hit adolescene I seen the presence Of the Most High telling me why We all in a fry so many of us die Cuz see the buzzards circlin the sky Unwillingly and knowingly That we was destined to be Kings and Queens but it's all a dream Like Martin King can't find a team Cuz everybody out for self **** man we need to break this ***** plan and lay out a master plan But on the other hands I wanted get money stretch it like rubberbands But some of us might as well be in the **** Drugs enforced and endorsed On the streets as well as the music so don't abuse it or loose it I know we all brothers sisters of different colors from.mothers no others Got heart like I dangerous once I learned to catch vibration with my third eye Controlled my soul on a stroll To a good day good riddance to those who ain't in repentance We paying for the wages of sin But the curse slowly breaking away Feelin like Malcolm sittin by the window with an AK 47 how many suckas wanna go to heaven And i wanna break leven With my peeps though but it seems they all want to go to war I tried to raise their conscious sick of the nonsense Media and the press loved to keep us suppressed Art of War strategy being played on us But I loaded my mentality with wisdom and begin to bust Shots at the stations They treat it like a crime whats wrong for unitin' with the black nation? I'm tryna to get to Mt. Zion I ain't lyin' Why they always tryna tie in A brother into gang violence Or drug case wheres our resistance Break the lien my past peers paid our dues Just check the slavery views Every few years they wanna see tears Instill fear to keep us down here In this concrete jungle hard to be humble When everybody mean muggin' Life jugglin' and strugglin' To get over obstacles Me a blackman still alive it's a miracle Almost satricial Its comedy at it's best enemies up to put a test On you black man black woman Wake up cuz they want us acting up Lets restack up get our weight up Build blackwallstreet the way it was supposed to be Along with the Indians to Mexicans we came from the same boat different landing put down that cannon cuz them spirits channelin' standin' Tough against the rain hitting my window pane As thoughts began to ponder my brain Its insane no more **** crack or ******* We got the power to make the change And don't act strange When I see you Just smile cuz I know you in the wild No hoochies to pop coochies Just Queens makin' love like Lucy and Ricky Ricardo I go all out for more Even the score naw we takin soar Like hawks in the night No fright ready to fight when we show on site White house white house ain't nothing but a plantation house Playin a game of cat n mouse We rising check the new apes movie They subliminally showed us we been had the funk feelin' groovy Stick with me n I'll stick with you We gotta communicate better When it's stormy weather endeavor Wisdom is much more than silver and gold but ya rather take a toll Down the valley of death row And i know it's hard but don't worry I hear ya Cuz we about the same problems so I feel ya yeah
