[Intro]
2
Black panther, black panther, what do you see?
3
I see a dream ITAL watching over me
4
Back nigga
5
Yeah, hey, can we get a little break
6
From the cocaine and the kilos
7
Aiight nigga, we know
8
Aiight nigga, we know
9
Can we get a break from the strippers on the p-ole
10
Aiight nigga, we know
11
Okay nigga, we know
12
[Verse 1]
13
Hey shawty, ain't no future in no gang-bang
14
And ain't no manhood in no bang-bang
15
Ain't no honor cleanin' interstates inside a chain-gang
16
Know some rap niggas put that shit inside your mainframe
17
Pills make you stupid and liquor do the same thing
18
'Raris too expensive and they way too hard to maintain
19
Get yourself a Camry, "nigga said a Camry?"
20
Watch that ho depreciate and then you'll understand me
21
It's called being fiscally responsible
22
Don't let these lying images up in hip-hop here conquer you
23
The TV's not your father fool, that video's not your momma
24
Try your best to be a man and your worst to be a monster
25
[Hook]
26
May we have some roses for the ladies
27
A little appreciation for the gentlemen
28
And here's some kisses for the babies
29
Some peace and inity for the whole wide-wide-wide world
30
More patience to the youth then, sympathy for the poor
31
Empathy for the old, more justice for the downpressed
32
Treat no liar ITAL, Ai-yaa!
33
[Verse 2]
34
I know you're sayin', "Lupe rappin' "˜bout the same shit"
35
Well, that's "˜cause ain't shit changed, bitch
36
And please don't excuse my language
37
Cause I would hate for you to misrepresent
38
The true expression of my anguish
39
And by this far I ain't shocked, upset, or appalled
40
I'm ashamed, bitch
41
I can't listen if you ain't sayin' shit
42
And recognize all this emptiness is dangerous
43
Ain't buildin' up they confidence, we teachin' "˜em that they ain't shit
44
If they ain't got the latest that they saw on someone famous
45
Mercy of the Lord on this double-edged sword
46
Instead of askin' where the hoes is
47
Maybe maybe we could ask for roses
48
[Hook] x2

[Verse 3]
50
Called the president a terrorist
51
Corporate sponsors like, how the fuck you gon' embarrass us?
52
Ain't my fault, I was just repeatin' this
53
Professor Emeritus from America
54
But my tone was like an Afghani kid without a home
55
Blew that bitch up with a drone
56
An Iraqi with no daddy, Palestinian throwing stones
57
The fuck you think they call him, I'mma leave that all alone
58
Cause this, the focus on this new shit is that hopeless
59
Place that I was born into systematic brokeness
60
Took that downpression and developed it to dopeness
61
It's that great American rap-rap ferocious
62
[Hook]
