गाने

[Verse 1]
We need each other
We have to have each other for our survival
From the revolutionaries to the conservatives
A Black united front (Uh-huh), is what we're about (Yo)
[Verse 2]
The making of the mob
The changing of the guard
An angel from the Lord, in ceremonial garb
The big homie in charge
Main culprit at large
Emerged over the odds
The victory is ours
The talented Mr. Trotter
A midnight marauder
If it's blood in the water, no stopping the top shotter
I drop bombs, multiples arms like candelabras on a mission
I'm chasing chicken like a Chupacabra ****
Salute your father, I'm headed back to Wakanda
After the drama, rappers get medevac'd to the trauma
To kill a lion, separate it from the pride
I rule Zion, I am the most hated one alive
A gun was fired, another one expired
I represent the unwanted, undesired
Washed my hands of it all, then raised one and testified
To lyrical manslaughter, I'm guilty but justified, ****
[Verse 3]
I started from the streets when I was nine
When I started hanging out at nine
I knew what I was gonna do when I was ten
[Verse 4]
Trust the vibe, when it's the fly sinister
Philly's certified finisher, the Prime Minister
In God's image, the monument, the homage is to
The problem is acknowledging, how to apply penance for the transgressions
That I've accepted, in acquiescence of my own presence
As I inspected my loaded weapon (Y'all just don't get it)
So stream it at your own discretion every answered question
Investment in your own protection, they be like black
Well, who knew, we'd be receiving a new you
That's part Zulu and Farrakhan meets Pharaoh Khufu?
Misinterpret my level of genius and call it cuckoo
But the Swahili meaning of freedom is still Uhuru
To the booth guru, I deliver the truth to you
Who got the nerve to act as if this isn't proof to you
That I will mobilize a militia then troop to you?
No telling what I've got n the system to shoot through you
If it's too brutal, look the other way like I'm bribing you
But surrender all your valuables, as if I'm robbing you
As I slide, the hassle to the side
Like a tassel, the facade of the place I reside
Is like a castle, I'm The Honorable Pensèe Noir
My nom de guerre, I'm the Czar
The Peking-to-Paris, is my kind of car
I'm the R, I'm the L, I'm the Kane
All correlated, unadulterated power
The King's been coronated, wake up
No masquerade, remove the make up
It's no sleeping, my eyes refuse to stay shut
There's gatekeepers responsible for this place
But historically the authority's been morally bankrupt
Enter the executioner, speaking of retribution
I will send shots to Lucifer even to catch the future
Me and the best producers out again, on route again
Airborne audio spores, it's like an allergen
So in conclusion, I wanna clear the confusion
Any rumors the artist you're currently hearing is human
The shapeshifter, weightlifter, I hate Hitler
I'm the great victor behind the bars
State prisoner
