[Em] We're the neck woodiest in the darkest system.
Listen, watch the words, how they twist them.
Peace out, you're the world's perfect.
Some call it a practice, you from Freeman and the property.
Rhyme logically, not justified.
I'm demanding my rights.
Women's suffrage and vets, suffix fortune, product.
Hey, KK, arrogant [E] terrorism.
Murders and beatings on television.
Into the cells now, you thought that was your thing.
Put the compression stage, trauma still got most afraid.
Suck in the memory, biggest birth [E] of lethargy.
Generations of children in [Em] jeopardy.
History written in jealousy, scraps of heresy.
Full of barbarity, check out my melody.
Musical therapy, _ reprogram.
Africa full of cocaine, whole train was a Coleman.
Like genius in a cold land, trying to kill a whole man.
Kill a whole [Bm] land, past time for our old land.

[E] Devastated, self and monotony, bureaucracy, psyche on poverty.
Self esteem, broken like pottery.

Walking to university, living cosmology.

Your dead life, the longer it gets.
[E] I know it's hard to [B] admit that you follow some bullshit.
Swallowed the wrong pill, [E] looking for Mr.
Bill.
Feel the [Bm] hummus, I'm back,
I'm heavy here just with a cummerbund.
I was homecoming queen, call me number one.
[A] Yup, that's another one.
Now get the [E] drummers up.
Tell every mother son,
it's [Em] fresh and every farm more powerful than a hundred guns.
See my [E] Kalishnikov.
My lyrics put the safety off.
Now [A] dance around these niggas like [Em] Baryshnikov.
It's done, let loose your toes.
Get this block and y'all watch yourself.
Then it will change what's gonna [G] come.
Settle down, looking for a [Em] place to run.
Tell a tooth and tongue, enemy [G] reduced by one.
Thousands who can put 10,000 [C] in flight.
