Hey, hey, hey man I strike the empire back I strike the empire back Fuck the Empire! High flying like the millennium Falcon, piloted by Han Solo I never roll for dolo, fronting on me's a no-no Understand? Doing this for my family Ha ha, check it out y'allYo I'm trying to make a dollar out of what makes sense Add it up, told my daddy I'd be a rich man You never know when your fate gon' switch hand Get today's solid ground out of yesterday's quicksand I was a young boy, who dreamed about being a big man On small loose leaf sheets I sketched a big plan Gotta handle business properly, boost up my economy Store it up and get my mom some waterfront property Yesterday was not for me but now a day it's time for me The streets is watching me, I watch back, that's the policy Moving along my odyssey like blood through the artery Navigate the treacherous and make it seem effortless Let those who make the exodus seeking the North beacon From beating and hog-eating, from punishment all season From hands cracked and bleeding, cotton thorns in your palms It's for y'all that I sketch these songs, and it goes Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow I fear no man, because faith is the arrow My vocal chord travel worldwide to block narrow We can blow with the ammo or go mano-a-mano Kweli is you wit me? (What up what up?) Let's make it happen I burn through your argument with action My eyes stay fastened to tomorrow looking for a brighter day When y'all want to leave y'all? Right awayShout it out from East-West (from South to Northern) From Cakalak' (to California) From the coldest (to the warmest) To the borders ('cross the waters) understand "and know that I love you" We got love in the place Shout out to all the Queens (all the Seeds) To all the teams (that's getting cream) From outlaw (to emcee's) Make it happen (do your thing) understand "and know that I love you" Ladies and gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen, ladies and gentlemenGuess who? The illest MC in the atmosphere, yeah the Soul Controller Who roam the frontier like a Buffalo Soldier I follow the code of honor like a real man gonna Never disrespect no women cause I love my momma These cats be giving us praise but it ain't that accurate I give it up to God, all that, love and attachment, get Scary well-prepared with the shears when it get hairy Like how these niggas is looking like some fairies And singing like canaries to the beast And anybody who will listen to em clearly Y'all don't hear me though, even when I'm coming through in stereo You make a mockery of what I represent properly Yo why you starting me? I take that shit straight to the artery Intellectual property I got the title and the deed I pay for rent, with the tears and sweat, and what I bleed MC's imitate the way we walk, the way we talk You cats spit lyrical pork with no spiritual thought Plus your flow a little bit off, you come across soft Back in the days, niggas like that on stage got tossed off Need to get crossed off the guest list It's like you gotta be disrespected and thrown out the exit To get the message Sometimes your sunshine get snatched like a necklace When you get too drunk on power and your drive get reckless Check it, MC's in my face after I slug you then I hug you If I gotta dead you know it's only cause I love you
Это интересно:Mos Def, будучи совсем необласканным продажами, премиями и гостевыми участиями на альбомах поп-звезд, на данный момент является одним из самых знаковых и заметных персон хип-хопа. Родился Dante Terrell Smith в районе Бруклин, что в Нью-Йорке, а случилось это 11-го декабря 1973-го. Уже с самого раннего возраста окружающие замечали в нем художественную одаренность: мальчик любил играть в домашний театр... продолжение
