[Verse 1: MF Grimm]
Few
Bullets hit the floor while flying through the air
Billie Jean light up concrete, some die there
Military weapons against stones not fair
Gunshots in the street, whole block scared
N***as tell you they love you right before they shoot you
Hug your momma, cry at your funeral
Itâs terrible, sinful. Life here is pitiful
God has a dark sense of humor, divine comedy
Jokeâs on you, punchline is tragedy
Itâs not what he say, itâs how he deliver it
Louis Armstrong gassed me, said it was âWonderfulâ
Bush lit the match, showed souls are flammable
Push me? Donât. Iâm close to the edge
War, I keep falling, but Iâm laying on floor
So deep, drowning but Iâm not in water
In Hell, inferno, inhale, breathe fire
In Heaven internally, exhale, leave Lucifer
Fail my objective, can never be President
Although I have all the criminal qualifications
So, no, I guess Iâm just like Colin Powell
Lack of real power and blood on the conscience
Some Caucasians see black as being contagious
Their children love us and now act as strangers
Wish they could go back to days when they hang us
Man, them days they hung us is still among us
We got fake revolutionaries trying to mislead us
Wonât bust their guns. In the head, they just beat us
Fight their own kind instead of ones who mistreat us
Mechanicals for revolution, Che Guevara never got âem
He couldnât be bought by the demons who shot him
So donât give me that âPower to the Peopleâ shit unless youâre
About this shit. Too many n***as died for it
Old-timers known how to spot whoâs legit
Real bankers are pros and know whoâs counterfeit
Duo Live, âFree Lunch,â thatâs who Iâll roll with
Weâre out here exposing hoes and foes the way we should
Living good, not giving back to the hood
Shit changed. The Klanâs black, wearing hoods
Prove me wrong? I wish brothers would
In this song âcause I rather be wrong

[Verse 2: MF Grimm]
I learned
The worse devil in the worldâs a black one
Theyâll speak your language, talking slang, son
If detected, hereâs come another one
Where these n***as coming from? Bred with self-hatred
Eating masterâs scraps, feeling that they made it
Black churches and buses firebombed and raided
Program American Hunger, so they ate it
Cook grams, iron chef, ghetto gourmet
Slow jams. While get, high forget problems
No manâs an island, but each oneâs a monster
Shit ainât never gonna change, we canât solve them
How can a nation build when they donât love each other?
No promised land, only misery prolonged
But in this song, I rather be wrong

[Verse 3: MF Grimm]
Armstrong
Williams endorsed Bush to kill millions
Your skin is black, but, for you, I have no feelings
Your fouls are flagrant, you secret agent
I speak for a tribe still alive but lost
Your ancestors will haunt you âtil you see the light
Condoleezza Rice, how you sleep at night?
I guess the Devil tucked you in real tight. Take a
Look in a mirror, bitch, you are not white
What do they have on you? Something ainât right
The vow taken by the President at the inauguration:
Never let this become a n***a nation
But theyâre like roaches, Plan B: space station
Just in case they get the heart, choose to fight
And want a war, canât take it no more
Make these n***as literally reach for the stars
Throwing rocks will never reach Marsâcanât touch this
Kill âem off, see who survives the sequel
Itâs un-American, n***as will never be equal
Fuck them jiggaboos, theyâre not even people
Itâs not a mythâtheyâre only three-fifths
Abe, that n***a lover, what was on his mind?
Probably had n***a in him, knew he was they kind
Now a n***a for life, thatâs why pennies don't shine
[Verse 4: MF Grimm]
Show nonbelievers matters controlled by the brain
Grimmâs David Blaine, for the world, display pain
All those multiple contusions and bruising illusions
Magna Carta, OG Constitution
Twelve-Fifteen, master plan for prostitution
The king is a pimp wearing jewels to executions
Father against son, that was the revolution
We didnât matter, so please donât be flattered
Africa was shattered, our blood was splattered
Iâve died before, so I donât fear
Took two thousand years for a n***a to reappear
Gotta kill me âcause Iâm powerful, I know the deal
Memorize lines, go along with the script
Will my execution make my people flip?
Will disciples be trife and slip? Please
Come together, all Bloods and Crips, make purple
Save your people
[Outro: MF Grimm]
Theyâre counting on you to kill yourselves. Itâs time for us to make a change. I rather be wrong. Weâre now hanging ourselves. Thereâs no excuse no more. We gotta come together, we gotta get shit right. Shit is too fucked up. Itâs been fucked up for a long time, man. Itâs beyond color though. We just need to get our heads together. People donât realize what this world is for, man, this ainât what... Shit ainât for us to sit out here, fucking fighting each other. Motherfuckers, think, man, think. Life is too short for this shit. Running around in circles, man, like rats in a maze
