Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Wicked as Aleister Crowley, you **** know me
Wicked as Aleister Crowley, you **** know me
[Verse 2]
Kick your game, spit your flow
Can't fuck with this Top Dawg shit, though
Kick your game, spit your flow
Can't fuck with this Top Dawg shit, though
Kick your game, spit your flow
Can't fuck with this Top Dawg shit, though
Kick your game, spit your flow
Can't fuck with this Top Dawg shit, though
[Verse 3]
Wish I could see out of Selassie' eye
Maybe my sovereignty would still be mine
If all the gangs in the world unified
We'd stand a chance against the military tonight
I said we'd stand a chance against the military tonight
I said we stand a chance against the military tonight
[Verse 4]
Babylon, Babylon, out my window all I see is Babylon
On the news all I see is Babylon
And all **** do is just babble on
Money and hoes, want money and hoes
If I sold dope, I'd have plenty of flows
If I was from the projects like Jay Rock
I woulda more than likely slang rocks
[Verse 5]
All my life I done been around Crips and Bloods
Pimps and thugs, just to name a few
I do drugs, mama say it's in my blood
But she don't know what the fuck I've been through
To creep through the back door
The typical black boy in the good ol' USA
Before I pushed rhymes like weight
I used to wanna play for the NBA
[Verse 6]
Fuck I'm doin' talkin' 'bout pineal gland?
Ancient ways of Sumerians
Ain't nothin' wrong with a righteous man
That's why I had to write this, man
For my **** on the corners
Sellin' water to somebody's daughter
Fluctuatin' prices, man
I ain't got no gavel
I ain't tryin' to fight nobody's battle
I just wanna be free
I ain't tryna be nobody's chattle
[Verse 7]
Wish I could see out of Selassie' eye
Maybe my sovereignty would still be mine
If all the gangs in the world unified
We'd stand a chance against the military tonight
I said we'd stand a chance against the military tonight
I said we'd stand a chance against the military tonight
[Verse 8]
(Extra pills, extra pills)
[Verse 9]
Them AK clips stay extra peeled
Smokin' on some of that extra kill
Purple Urkel, that Jaleel
I put that on everything
If we could link up every gang
And **** is willin' to bear the pain
We'd put the White House lights out today
Okay-kay-kay, we mobbin' like we the black KKK
Don't forget my AK e'ry Mayday
Pee on your PhD or your AA, ay, ay, ay
[Verse 10]
Dear Barack
I know you're just a puppet, but I'm givin' you props
You're lyin' to the public like it ain't nothin'
And I just love it, I hope it don't stop
I don't give a damn, ****, bang that block
I don't give a fuck, ****, bang that Glock
I seen an image of Hitler in the picture when the Twin Towers dropped
[Verse 11]
Peep the concept
You've got progress, you've got Congress
We protest in hopes they confess
Just proceed on your conquest
I ain't got no gavel
I ain't finna fight nobody's battle
I just wanna be free
I ain't finna be nobody's chattel
[Verse 12]
Wish I could see out of Selassie' eye
Maybe my sovereignty would still be mine
If all the gangs in the world unified
We'd stand a chance against the military tonight
I said we'd stand a chance against the military tonight
I said we'd stand a chance against the military tonight
[Verse 13]
Extra pills, extra pills
Nose candy rain like Soul 4 Real
My baby needs some Enfamil
So bags get stuffed like Oprah grill
Pull around, come back, oh for real?
Top blew off, loafers in teal
Get lined up like homeless meals
Feeling if you know how bein' homeless feels
[Verse 14]
Okay-kay-kay, don't try to stop me, get in my way
You'll get stomped like a Broadway play
AK melee make you obey, okay?
Feel my pain, goin' insane, I'm ashamed
'Cause I ain't got shit but an EBT card from a fiend that owe me
And it's in her daughter name
[Verse 15]
How the fuck is they 'posed to eat?
How the fuck am I 'posed to eat?
Got a **** in the streets, no healthcare
Tryna slang weed just to put shoes on his feet
So fuck you, you don't give a fuck about me
Can't get a job if they drug test me
Got a **** stressed, depressed, got a feeling in his chest
And the world's stripped of happiness
I ain't got no gavel
I ain't tryin' to fight nobody's battle
I just wanna be free
I ain't finna be nobody's shadow
