10
I said yo, I said yo, I said yo
11

12
Kardinal is walkin' (yo) just how we be talking (Yo)
13
Fakes get they face palmed, and thrown to the floor
14
Shout out to the ghetto, girl's in they stilettos
15
With their tongue rings, doing tricks, sippn' on Ameretto
16
Fire pon a fosse-man a bad man truss me
17
Not a homophobic, just a man who loves pssss
18
Come here let me see you, and throw a little game
19
You can either fall in love with the hood or with the name
20
Explicit lyriciasm (yo) nuff narcissism
21
Is invading hip-hop, replacing escapism
22
My vision is an ism (yo) smoke it till you're high
23
Unattainable goals blank to your third eye (yo)
24
Maneuvering high skies to low tone flows
25
Straight to the five mic sight is where the flow goes
26
Killing 'em with knowledge - the mind is the key
27
Just sign on the dotted line and check who you be
28
CHORUS [Jully Black] {Kardinal}
29
You {you}, me {me}, powerful {so powerful}
30
We're fighting for this goal and we ain't gonna stop
31
{We ain't never gonna stop y'all}
32
I said you {you}, me {me}, is wonderful {so wonderful}
33
We'll be makin' babies til our army's on top
34
{'Til we standing on the top y'all}
35
[Kardinal Offishall]
36
The funk is in the air (yo) you might suffocate
37
If you don't strap on your mack on and watch I articulate
38
We don't shake hands with cops (yo) we don't participate
39
Light up an informer and make his mouth menstrate (yo)
40
Black is for Black, they can't understand that
41
So they call it "reverse racism" and try to pin it back (yo)
42
But if we ain't for us, who for us? them? - nah!
43
If it was up to them they would have us ridin' in the back of the bus
44
In handcuffs and other shackles (yo) check Mr. Bush
45
Plant cocaine on me and call it operation push
46
Our Prime Minister is actually second in command
47
Bending over to the star spangled-politically strangled
48
So we have to move (yo) through the underground
49
Encode the funk mode and claim back the sound (yo)
50
'Cause what's mine is gonna stay mine, word to line for line
51
Off the top and all that
52
Peace to magnificent rap
53
CHORUS
54
[Tara Chase]
55
Look out
56
Cameras are watching you, they watching you from birth
57
And they be killing us softly by biologically attacking us first
58
Don't think that you're immune
59
'Cause your acquired system is soon to be consumed
60
Flesh eating disorder, false claims of water
61
I rip through the lies so I can bare sons and daughters, and soldiers
62
Build my camp up like an army over Giza, running suicide missions
63
You can't disarm me
64
CHORUS **no Kardinal**
65
**Jully Black ad-libs**
66
[Jully Black]
67
Making babies 'til our army's on top
68
yeah, yeah
69
Oh yeah
70
[Kardinal Offishall]
71
Wake up!
72
Take it low, low low low low low
73
OUTRO [Kardinal Offishall]
74
Dear Lord,
75
I really, I don't even know how to ax this
76
You know, I can't, this this this is not an act
77
I must, from the bottom of my heart, ask forgiveness for my sins
78
But you know what
79
I ask that you give me the strength to be able to reach
80
all of those peoples, on every street corner, every block, every ghetto
81
All of those people, that we sometimes think are not worthy of blessings,
82
they're worthy to me
83
And I think that as a man given the blessings you have given me
84
The opportunity to speak, that I need to speak the language
85
of those people, and I need to reach them
86
You know, beacuse there's are a lot of good people on this Earth,
87
but there still some people that need a talking to
88
And I ask you to give me the strength to reach out to those people
89
You know because I believe everybody is worthy of your blessings
90
So I ask that you give, you give me, my family, my crew, F.O.S, the circle
91
All of us, all the babies that are being born
92
You give us the strength to be able to deal with it how you see fit
93
Beacuse you give all of us the power, as much as some people might not believe it
94
You give us the strength to reach out and touch a lot people
95
So Lord I ask you give me the strength to go out in the world and start the fire
96
You know, start your fire, you understand I'm saying
97
Lord, just please be with me, be with me
98
and give me the strength and let me do this
99
Come to you as humble man, Kardinal Offishall
