5
Callin' haves and have nots, every cell on the block
6
Every nigga with a trigger, empty barreled or cocked
7
March in like parade of scars if you been stabbed or shot
8
Son, we smokin' these batons right in front of these cops
9
Callin' out to the kids, all my niggas with bids
10
Whether suited up or booted up or stuck in the mid
11
You can download it or boot it up, my pupils unlid
12
All my students of the underground with record store gigs
13
Callin' out to the girls, the inventors of worlds
14
The intelligence of relevance and elegant pearls
15
Pour like nectar from the lotus big bang opus in swirls
16
Down the sweaty backs of hairyweave tracks and dried jheri curls
17
Callin' out to the pimps hat cocked slump with your gimp
18
On your wrist with just a twist of lime to go with that limp
19
Hold your cup up so this ancient rain can find its way in
20
Let these niggas know the cost of reaching heavenly bliss, yes

29
It was all a dream, it was all a dream
30
I used to fantasize I was Malcolm or Martin in the pulpit
31
The ballot or the bullet
32
I swear I used to pray to change back the year
33
When niggas spoke of motherships with space helmets for hair
34
Well, now what have we here?
35
Thugs and poets, ah yeah
36
What we seem to have in common is we're common as air
37
Yes, the lowest rung of anthems sung each day every year
38
From check cashing to latest fashions
39
While they ration out fear but I'm fearless
40
Sometimes I feel alone, homeless, peerless
41
What will it take to shake the land for everyone to hear this?
42
I can't bear this, born of pages torn from ancient prayer lists
43
Descendant of the womb, the lotus blooms when I come near it
44
I declare it time to realign karat to carrot
45
What was olden remains golden sceptered tongue I dare to share it
46
All who hear it know at once, royal highness over blunts
47
Thug of thugs, pimp of pimps, golden tongue and ivory fronts
48
Grind and hustle, niggas know the heart is just a muscle
49
All payments due, you made some papes
50
I wrote upon I trust you will invest
51
'Cause chances are the game is just a test
52
Professor of the truth talk real truth emeritus
53
I am the king as I command my son to dance and sing
54
We celebrate our earthly fate, my daughter gives me wings
55
We are one descendants of the mothership and tongue
56
Southern trees have born strange fruit, hail, salute a troop well hung
57
So come along, everyone's invited
58
Heroes of distinguished paths, victims and conquered
59
Those who stand alone and those who stand unfettered
60
Fuck the bullshit whether from the hill or from the pulpit
61
Today, I put my money on the fall of every culprit
62
The truth prevails when all else fails
63
Drug dealers make the music, then guess who's back?
64
Your souls answer to greenbacks, hoes and crack
65
The chord that strung from anthems
66
Sung right now to way way back
67
The legacy of Hennessey distilled to brownish black
68
Rolls off the tongue a pointed gun
69
Fake nigga's best stand back
70
The trumpet calls and yes, yes, y'all
71
The emperor's changed his hat
