Friends, Romans, countrymen lend me your ear

Start repenting 'cause the ending is near

But don't panic, you can't function if you living in fear

Pay attention, you gotta listen to hear
5
Who the fuck you think you talkin' to?
6
Put you on hold, get a specialist to walk you through
7
Kweli, the flow captain of fast and slow rappin'
8
I'm so crackin', you ain't heard, your shit appear like closed captions
9
King of the bars and I'm goin' hard, pause
10
All my confidence comes from knowin' God's laws
11
Bangin' on the system, fightin' my kinda war
12
Loud as a whisper, quiet as a lion's roar
13
Get it now, get it fast, get it right
14
Get it big, get it live, get it done, get it tight
15
But you don't really hear me though
16
I spit it clearly so it's live out ya stereo
17
(Listen) to you heart while it's beatin' in your chest
18
Speakin' to execs and then see behind the desk
19
(Listen) to your spirit, nothin' weaker than the flesh

So while you try to keep it fresh you gettin' deeper into debt

Real hip hop is missing from the shelf

Yea, that's what you felt when you listen to yourself

Only a few is makings cuts that vintage

So before you spend your heard earned spinach

You love the sounds coming out your speaker

I spit rounds like a nine millimeter

The youth today, they frown at the teachers

They ain't down with no leaders
29
They don't wanna wait just a (minute) they like what, wait right there
30
I got reservoir dogs, you'll be missing a right ear
31
Get it clear, I figure it's my year
32
I'm everywhere, makin' appearances in niggaz nightmares
33
Hear the word, peep the flow, check the cadence
34
What you heard is a pro, I'm so amazin'
35
Don't front girl you know it's your favorite
36
New Kweli, yo they runnin' out of patience
