[00:00.480] Black Panther, Black Panther, what do you see?
[00:03.770] I see a dream ITAL watching over me
[00:10.740] Back nigga
[00:15.600] Yeah, hey, can we get a little break
[00:20.600] From the cocaine and the kilos
[00:22.600] Aiight nigga, we know
[00:23.950] Aiight nigga, we know
[00:25.240] Can we get a break from
[00:26.800] the strippers on the pill
[00:28.100] Aiight nigga, we know
[00:29.980] Okay nigga, we know
[00:31.230] Hey shawty, ain't no future in no gang-bang
[00:34.830] And ain't no manhood in no bang-bang
[00:37.510] Ain't no honor cleanin interstates inside a chain-gang
[00:40.420] Know some rap niggas put that shit inside your mainframe
[00:43.460] Pills make you stupid and liquor do the same thing
[00:46.510] 'Raris too expensive and they way too hard to maintain
[00:49.530] Get yourself a Camry, "nigga said a Camry?"
[00:52.460] Watch that ho depreciate and then you'll understand me
[00:56.170] It's called being fiscally responsible
[00:58.320] Don't let these lying images up in hip-hop here conquer you
[01:01.360] The TV's not your father fool,
[01:02.910] that video's not your momma
[01:04.460] Try your best to be a man and your worst to be a monster
[01:06.960] May we have some roses for the ladies
[01:10.180] A little appreciation for the gentlemen
[01:13.040] And here's some kisses for the babies
[01:16.240] Some peacenality for the whole wide-wide-wide world
[01:20.930] More patience to the youth,
[01:22.830] sympathy for the poor
[01:24.370] Empathy for the old,
[01:26.560] more justice for the down and pressed
[01:28.540] Treat no liar ITAL, AY-YAH!
[01:31.160] I know you're sayin', "Lupe rappin 'bout the same shit"
[01:34.630] Well, that's 'cause ain't shit changed, bitch
[01:38.080] And please don't excuse my language
[01:40.450] Cause I would hate for you to misrepresent
[01:42.580] The true expression of my anguish
[01:45.340] And by this far I ain't shocked, upset, or appalled
[01:48.260] I'm ashamed, bitch
[01:50.010] I can't listen if you ain't sayin shit
[01:52.800] And recognize all this emptiness is dangerous
[01:55.480] Ain't buildin up they confidence,
[01:56.900] we teachin 'em that they ain't shit
[01:58.510] If they ain't got the latest
[01:59.810] that they saw on someone famous
[02:01.420] Mercy of the Lord on this double-edged sword
[02:04.070] Instead of askin where the hoes is
[02:06.010] Maybe maybe we could ask for roses
[02:07.190] May we have some roses for the ladies
[02:10.230] A little appreciation for the gentlemen
[02:12.920] And here's some kisses for the babies
[02:16.290] Some peacenality for the whole wide-wide-wide world
[02:20.940] More patience to the youth,
[02:22.920] sympathy for the poor
[02:24.340] Empathy for the old,
[02:26.770] more justice for the down and pressed
[02:28.370] Treat no liar ITAL, AY-YAH!
[02:30.990] May we have some roses for the ladies
[02:34.200] A little appreciation for the gentlemen
[02:36.900] And here's some kisses for the babies
[02:40.240] Some peacenality for the whole wide-wide-wide world
[02:55.010] Called the President a terrorist
[02:57.920] Corporate sponsors like,
[02:59.590] how the fuck you gon' embarrass us?
[03:01.770] Ain't my fault, I was just repeatin this
[03:04.290] Professor emeritus from America
[03:07.710] But my tone was like an Afghani kid without a home
[03:11.710] Blew that bitch up with a drone
[03:13.090] An Iraqi with no daddy, Palestinian throwing stones
[03:16.240] The fuck you think they call him,
[03:17.850] I'mma leave that all alone
[03:19.170] Cause this, the focus on this new shit is that hopeless
[03:22.520] Place that I was born into systematic brokeness
[03:25.510] Took that downpression and developed it to dopeness
[03:28.400] It's that great American rap-rap ferocious
[03:31.070] May we have some roses for the ladies
[03:34.120] A little appreciation for the gentlemen
[03:36.830] And here's some kisses for the babies
[03:40.040] Some peacenality for the whole wide-wide-wide world
[03:45.440] More patience to the youth,
[03:46.940] sympathy for the poor
[03:48.350] Empathy for the old,
[03:50.620] more justice for the down and pressed
[03:52.470] Treat no liar ITAL, AY-YAH!
