Fellas I'm to get up and do my thing (go ahead)
I wanna get into it man, you (go ahead)
Like I, you know I'm the man, don't (go ahead)
Can I it off?
One, two, three,

I'm groovin' for the activists and
I'm an advocate for those feeling
In the and slums, the ghetto inhabitants
It's like 'Can anything good come outta
The only thing good came Nazareth
(This is the groove, tell me, can you it?)
Yeah I'm schooled in the ways of runaway
I'm brave, I'm unchained, I'm Frederick Douglass with a
I kidnapped greatness and left no
I'm the grandson of Muhammed Ali, but more
The solar cat away with our dancing
Call me Eve before I my fruit, let me get at 'em
Picking up the pieces in a world that's
They imprisoned by ignorance, I'm begging your
I'm charming, I am Washington Carver in a garden
With some food, but prefer starving
The LP is out, yeah I'm missing the bargain
The industry is Walmart, they the target
Suited for success, bow ties and top
If greatness had a score is the soundtrack

If you've never seen a frown never love a smile
Only boys, they fighting for a crown
You never been a servant, you'll never be a king
Woke up in two thousand and like you've never had a dream
Bad schools, bad food, bad predatory
Bad debt, no investment, just spenders
On spinners, on spinners, something on spinners
Churches ain't they just decorating sinners
When the liquor store is neighbour, they'll probably grow up a drunk
When the courts you from court you'll probably learn to dunk
They the cheese and they put it in the trap

No matter what you do, you can't take the from me
