Verse 1
Bm
Hey, hey, hey, man
I strike the Empire back
I strike the Empire back
Fuck the Empire
High flying like the Millennium Falcon,
piloted by Han Solo
I never roll for dolo,
fronting on me's a no- no
G
You understand? Doing this for my
Bm
family (Brooklyn)
Ha ha, check it out, y'all
Verse 2
Bm
Yo, I'm trying to make a dollar
out of what makes sense
Add it up, told my daddy
I'd be a rich man
You never know when your
fate gon' switch hand
Get today's solid ground out
of yesterday's quicksand
I was a young boy,
who dreamt about being a big man
On small loose leaf sheets I
sketched a big plan
G
Gotta handle business properly,
Bm
boost up my economy
Store it up and get my mom some
waterfront property
Yesterday was not for me but
nowaday it's time for me
The streets is watching me,
I watch back, that's the policy
G
Moving along my odyssey like
Bm
blood through the artery
Navigate the treacherous
and make it seem effortless
Let those who make the exodus
seeking the North beacon
From beating and hog- eating,
from punishment all season
G
From hands cracked and bleeding,
Bm
cotton thorns in your palms
It's for y'all that I sketch
these songs and it goes
Yeah, though I walk through
the valley of the shadow
I fear no man, because faith is the arrow
My vocal chord travel
worldwide to block narrow
We can blow with the ammo or
go mano- a- mano
Kweli is you wit me? (What up
what up?) Let's make it happen
I burn through your argument with action
G
My eyes stay fastened to tomorrow
Bm
looking for a brighter day
When y'all want to leave
y'all? Right away
Verse 3

Ladies and gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen,

Verse 4
Bm
Guess who? The illest MC in the atmosphere,
yeah, the Soul Controller
Who roam the frontier like a Buffalo Soldier
I follow the code of honor
like a real man gonna
Never disrespect no women
'cause I love my momma
These cats be giving us praise
but it ain't that accurate
I give it up to God, all that,
love and attachment, get
G
Scary well- prepared with
Bm
the shears when it get hairy
Like how these niggas is
looking like some fairies
And singing like canaries to the beast
And anybody who will listen
to 'em clearly
Y'all don't hear me though,
even when I'm coming through in stereo
You make a mockery of what
I represent properly
Yo, why you starting me? (Stop)
I take that shit straight to the artery
Intellectual property I
got the title and the deed
I pay for rent, with the tears and sweat,
and what I bleed (uh, uh)
G
Bm
Mc's imitate the way we walk,
the way we talk
You cats spit lyrical pork with
no spiritual thought
Plus your flow's a little bit off,
you come across soft
Back in the days,
niggas like that on stage got tossed off (bounce)
Need to get crossed off
the guest list (uh)
It's like you gotta be
disrespected and thrown out the exit
To get the message
Sometimes your sunshine get snatched
like a necklace (uh)
When you get too drunk on power
and your drive get reckless
G
Check it, MC's in my face after I slug
Bm
you then I hug you
If I gotta dead you know it's
only 'cause I love you
Verse 5
Bm
Shout it out from East, West
(from South to Northern)
From the richest (to the poorest)
To the elders (in the coffins)
Living native (dying for
it), understand
(And know that I love you)
yeah, yeah
(Yeah, yeah) we got love in the place
Shout out from up top
(to the middle)
To black bottom (sky high)
Whether you colder than December
Or hotter than July
It don't stop 'til we complete
this
(And know that I love you) keep
this fly
It's so much to life
when you just stay black
Stay black, stay black, stay black,
stay black
Stay black, stay black, stay black,
stay black, stay black
