verse 1:
sometimes i sit and wonder what if einstein was a spittah/
what beats would he rock, ‘rhyme schemes would he deliver/
would he really go hard if he lived the life of a n*ggah/
in*stead of racing science he’ dodging a racist’s triggah/
in*stead of figuring theories the theory is getting figgas/
his stomach eatin’ his back, and his back is against the river/
every step that he takin’ them dogs is comin’ quicker/
escapin’ the hater’s fate is the only picture that’s clearer/
his babies is getting hungry, pregnant wife getting bigger/
mississippi is burnin’, open flames to liquor/
but he know’ he’ a g*nius, opportunity’s thicker/
thought he could get a job, forgot to look in the mirror/
wonder if he could see it, would he use his excuses/
would he let that fire burn down his creative juices/
would he hang his self for seeing his ancestors in nooses/
would he stand up to the lion and challenge all his abusers whut???/

verse 2:
for generations we been generating lost boys/
giving us the blues brothers dan aykroyd
my common sense hit me like a fkin asteroid/
energy is neither lost nor is it destroyed/
so that means my ancestor’s spirits’ all up in the air/
and i can’t grab a hold of malcolm if i’m holding fear/
so i let this go and i let this blow these trumpets can you hear/
that it’s getting louder by the hour strappin’ up my gear/
and i need my brothers to get up and come and hold me down/
and i need our fathers to come bring they’ asses back around/
‘cause we going ape*sh*t in this matrix in this crazy town/
and curious george is getting’ lost within this circus wow/
and i got these buzzards and these jim crows they’ at my home/
but cha boy gon’ rock’em and that’s two birds with one stone/
wanna see my black men back making plans in they’ zone/
revolution won’t be televised but it’s still on, (get up!)/

verse 3:
crucify us daily and bury us but we rising up/
we can’t stop at the top because the top it just ain’t high enough/
to h*ll with your feeling ‘cause your feelings it ain’t definin’ us/
you dummies know the sun is the only thing that’s out shining us/
treated us like animals but ya cages ain’t holding us/
you ain’t harming my army, your corney soldiers ain’t bold enough/
where you gonna be when yo’ chief is getting folded up/
prolly in your tee*pee, stuntin’ like you don’t notice us/
my team rollin up like we never knew what controlling was/
ass kicking like glass ceilings was never over us/
put us back on the map where the black on black love continue growin’ us/
feel the wrath of a mad man with a mad plan that’s makin’ doors open up/
it’s been a long time but i’m back and attackin’ the track with a rap that’ll smack like a mac wit a strap/
never lack and we’ bringin’ it back to the throne that we own and we gone where you at???/
