Who says I can't focus on my greatness at the same time build a nation I was born with the ancestors patience meaning I aint waiting I want the whole world back And I won't be satisfied until the whole world black ya dig Peace and blessings through our recent stresses We've been reconnecting with our deeper essence we believe we're special But we got deeper questions we can see there's clearly levels Seemingly unsettled by those secrets we ain't settled Scenic dreamin of the sea but neva leave the ghetto So I bump the dj table neva dance with devils They mad and jealous cuz the truth ya know is hard and callous Yet I imagine in between yo shoes ya feet are hammered But how you balance Living with the talent Knowing you have damaged everybody on the planet You couldve been just nice we would've shared with you twice But now I need this gun and I'm aiming for your life They told me speak the truth put the super bowl aside All those suits are a disquise you aint fuckin wit the guys You munchin off the pie tryin to take a playa shine I should put a ring around ya neck and hang you by that tie no lie Cus I'm only trying to find ways to maintain while reclaiming my name im learning me Its Royalty I can see that they plottin on my lane they always trying to contain my history Erases the mystery Preachers warn me that i shouldn't be warring yet everybody is on it still pray for me Remember get off ya knees I'm just gon run up run my race run the court focus and stay the course The sun rose past sunset road Southend of the galleria picture us posed In fubu fat Albert timberland and starched polos They said its sweeter over here but yet the grass don't grow I'm making friends with the enemies kids who didn't know All your suburban hysteria off the back of my folks I'm in the same shopping mall like this the back of the boat But where these thoughts come from It was cool just a week ago It was this white cat name Judah who had set the tempo Gave me a dead prez cd i got your back in this bro Kinda ironic i know still took the jewel wit it tho Later I would learn the ancestors was calling from home I signed a new lease wit life trying to build a new home The kind we had before rome Before we ever had thrones Before the capture and sold Before the boats and the coasts Before the prayers and the hope When we was on one accord ya feel me Cus I'm only trying to find ways to maintain while reclaiming my name I'm learning me Its Royalty I can see that they plottin on my lane they always trying to contain my history Erases the mystery Preachers warn me that i shouldnt be warring yet everybody is on it still pray for me Remember get off ya knees I'm just gon run up run my race run the court focus and stay the course
