Ayy, smoking and twisting I'm black and I'm gifted
These crackers be thinkin' that niggas get wicked
Ferocious and vicious, they bust out and diss us
Imperial pistols that Narc on a mission
That's another nigga dead, hit 'em with the beam infrared
Frankly, I'm fed up with Feds
Profiling because my dreads long
Nigga that's Biggie, it's dead wrong
Head home, dro in the atmosphere
Wondering why they think a nigga selling narcotics
All because we niggas that be livin' in the projects
If I move funny, they gon' hit me with the object
Objective is subject, watch kill (Uh)
Take you down if they know you got it
Brains in the street, they'll leave you thoughtless, damn

King of the mischievous South
Speaking with my deviant mouth
How do I feel since I'm black? Proud
What's the shit you represent? Clout
Nine on the side of my hip, bow
This the return of the black owl
Max Julien, bring the mac out
Raven Miyagi is back, ow (Bow-bow-bow-bow)
Black metal fist got these other motherfuckers
caught up in the mix
Put 'em in the bars when they didn't do shit
Got the opposition living on the offense
It's why I gotta grab my rifle
Think about survival, hand on the Bible, so
I won't let none of them take my soul
That's why a nigga stay on ten toes down

Why these niggas thinkin on the low that we got it?
Bitch, because I got it doesn't mean a nigga got it
Why these niggas thinkin on the low that we got it?
Thinkin' every nigga is selling narcotics
Why do I have a lot of arrests?
Because of harassment
Why is there harassment?
Because them people that harass me
have set up a problem that made me
disagree with them violently and, and they
they set up these problem, in order to exploit me
and other people like me
They think they're living in a police state
and they become hostile toward the policemen
And why they wanna get rid of me?
Because I'm saying something that might wake up
other exploited people and some depressed people
and if all these people ever get together
then these pigs that are exploiting us
we'll be able to run them into the lake
That's why they wanna get rid of us
I want when they see me, they know
that every day when I'm breathing
it's-it's-it's for us to go farther, you know?
Every time I speak, I want the truth to come out
you know what I'm sayin'?
Every time I speak, I want to shiver
and even if I get in trouble you know what I'm sayin'?
That, ain't that what we're supposed to do?
