Lyrics

I feel your energy (feel your energy) It's coming through (it's coming through) Took me a century (a century) To get next to you (to get next to you) Plus make some enemies (enemies) Invested in you (invest in you) So, I feel your energy (I feel your energy) Invested, pursue (ooo ooo, I never read the 48 Laws) The power of the dussy make a grown man cry The day I came up out my mama I saw a grown man cry They say it has magic powers, even Magic ain't die Wake you up out ya sleep to take a 3am car ride He said the booty the only thing between him and God They love the booty, sacrifice they family and job Badge make police feel powerful in the hood Guns make us feel powerful but they don't do no good I know my blackness powerful and they don't like that I know some niggas sold theirs, sit back and watch 'em tap dance Bombs over Baghdad to have a flag to brag bout Don't make you a big boy, cus you got a nice Stack Carolina home boy, you know we keep a Stackhouse Thats power when you know the game, I'm feeling like a Champ now I went the rap route, homie get out the trap house I want the power to be able rap bout, what I rap bout Black child God, love and textiles Point, blank decimal Steph Curry projectile I saw the goal from 8 miles With every stone you threw I picked it up and built a powerhouse Caught a case I got murder in my profile Niggas still billin' me See, that's just the appeal in me Respek on my name Why yall niggas so emotional? Power I feel your energy (feel your energy) It's coming thru (it's coming thru) Took me a century (a century) To get next to you (to get next to you) Plus make some enemies (enemies) Invested in you (invest in you) So, I feel your energy (i feel your energy) Invested, pursue (ooo ooo, I never read the 48 Laws) Power up with the word I got it from my God He said a good shephard don't trip over what they heard Let em talk the talk until the night you choose to go and purge I came up when the rest of you struggled and failed to flourish Conversations with florist She said I'm good as herbs Get em high, get em high from the hood to the suburbs No one can take your power even if a storm occurred It ain't man made, but whether or not you paid don't help or hurt It's a perk Jamla Squad written on my shirt I got a lane but all the lines around me dotted I can merge I can do what you can but you can't do the same with words As I, now watch my street cred go multiply They say the streets respect a real one No one's as real as I It's just me and young blood this where I get all of my power The night I got a chain from Mr Flowers I gave it back when I got done rappin' the same hour I ain't Five Percent, 'less we talkin the top emcees And I'm in the top of that the rest beneath me all cowards When I spit, look around, it's meteor showers I watch the stars fall, fall, fall, see this what you call Power Let's talk about Power Let's talk about your and ours that made the allowance Let's talk about hundred-thousand kids ravin' and bouncin Cravin' and drownin in words the day I pronounced it Let's talk about Power Let's talk about do'ers and dont'ers The house I built when I was homeless and sleepin in corner Sharin' coronas and black and milds Donuts in el caminos Talkin' loud, Scrappin' corners Residue every mornin' Talk about legacy Let's talk about the life of celebrity Verses integrity Curse the first one that thirst for necessity Searching for equity Verses the earth that birthed us indefinitely Verse the verse I wrote in jeopardy Surfin' the laws of the universe and destiny Church and a God is the only thing that's been 'head AW! Let's talk about my power and golden showers Granted to be on your cameras and store counters He's banana's, competitive, we can dance Siege the damage, no more fo' he peed his pants My second LP had real niggas on POTUS lawn The seven grammys is at my Grannys and Heaven arms I'm in Jamaica like "WAH GAWIN" my feet is out My hair is long and patois coming out my mouth Me, I go outdoors it's time to bless up erryuhn' Rude boy, me, I worry bout it fearless' I shot niggas then shot movies ten years later Dear God, why you show me so much favor? Amongst the haters and wickedness Deliver this child from evil convictions and friviless Debates about who's the prominent emcee of the millennium And it's all for the benjamins And I'm all of yalls nemsis And I'm all in all happy none of yall can fathom who Kendrick is The only one that did wrote book of Genesis Motherfucker, thats Power
