«They did not have the power to stop Louis Farrakhan

They were trying to touch on and thieve envy within the leadership

But as a general and a man that rose through the ranks through discipline

His presence inspired those men with the discipline he imposed on his own life

Louis Farrakhan»

Uhh, yeah, wow.

No revolutionary gets old or so I’m told

You’re left full of bullet holes when you tell the people go free

Oh, it’s a matter of days before they try to take me

I heard gun shots rang;

his bullet’s got my name

I ain’t see 'em take aim, I dreamt this day came

'Cause I stood in the face of damnation

Satan spat at 'em, flat out disgraced 'em

He want my blood, why me?

Why not the fake ones who deserve death, man?

Fuck it, I’ll take one, 'cause stop me

But can’t stop a whole nation of millions who feel you deceived them

They believe in reparation makes it even

So I’m deadly now because of one reason, they listening

In Budapest, Japan, China, and Switzerland

We getting it in son

Another bullet pass by, missed me

Wondering who plotting to get me?

Alphabet boys still plotting against me

To hush me and stuff me in the pockets of history

You won’t remember why they came to clip me

When time go by you’ll soon forget me

They say he was the king of bling, jewels, and Bentleys

Then they use one of my lines just to prove I’m guilty

Don’t let 'em kill me…

«They did not have the power to stop Louis Farrakhan.»

«They did not have the power to stop Louis Farrakhan.»

«They did not have the power to stop Louis Farrakhan.»

«They did not have the power to stop Louis Farrakhan.»

Some revolutionaries do live long

Am I one of them?

Guess we’ll know in due time

Everybody has rights, can I use mine?

Can I rock shine?

Can I have a girl that’s too fine?

Got a swell life, tell me will I lose mine?

Every time I turn around somebody new dying

Let’s start living, À la carte, Escargot

Escobar, invest my millions

Mansion for the wife, the rest for the children

Knowing that they coming anytime

But until then, i’m at large till they shoot me

Million dollar stones in my camouflaged Gucci

Giving you this crack like Pookie

To question the system, be the resistance

No matter what color you are, everybody niggers

Or you can stand by or watch or you can march on with us

Some revolutionaries get old although I’m told

You’ll get a left full of bullet holes when you tell the people go free

Oh, it’s a matter of days before they try to take me

Some revolutionaries get old although I’m told

You’ll get a left full of bullet holes when you tell the people go free

Oh, it’s just a matter of days before they try to take me…
