napoleon da legend - when the soul dies lyrics

[napoleon da legend verse]

my belief are clashing i don’t believe in just believing i believe in action
i believe in their core, humans have good in em
we turn to savage in the system that they put us in
to survive and to eat and keep shelter
reinvent and slide thru… idris elba
transmitting teachings of my elders
i learned to pivot moving pieces of my pelvis
when you put yourself first they say you being selfish
who was standing up with me back when i was helpless
at least that’s how it felt hard to see clearly when
you’re the only one that’s eating did you really win?
or that the trick, to keep us separated?
and back-sliding on health care and reparations
sometimes discipline can feel something like deprivation
the bed i made was for me another bet i’m making
are we living or just getting by?
who’s standards are we living by?
someone told me u gotta pay the right people to get a name
i was already born with a name, so were you
so who’s green light you waiting for to live your truth?
you don’t need them to believe if you believe in you …
stuck between a dream and being a p-wn
thin line between, being weak and being strong

[napoleon da legend hook]

throughout my life i’ve seen some highs and some lows
and i carved a path all on my own
out of my reach had to get back on the road
i wear it proudly on my soul

[napoleon da legend verse]

showered in a vinaigrette of disrespect
on the road to success few things i did regret
should have called my moms more
good folks around me, [i] should have made more time for
u turn into the energy u hang around
chasing lights, everybody wanna be famous now
just to be famous just to get a “look at me”
smiling at the table with some crooked thieves
it’s a game of thrones, we looking for a chair to sit
for something to claim before the credits h-t
inside of an ideological ghetto
have your reaching/ diabolical type levels
got me stuck like lock knee incogni(to)
wearing masks like aya stark and shock g
and the violence is when you see folks live in luxury
while you sweating just to get the bare necessities
ya mansions and ya cars don’t impress me
it’s how u treat people don’t need that always gets me
we don’t have to like each other to coexist
but it’s better that we talk so we know what is
and what is not it’s lonely at the top
others looking for the key so they flip the lock
i burst out laughing in all my sadness
the people in power and spine so gelatinous
y’all ain’t noticing society collapsing?
people getting sick insurance policies are lapsing
no budget for the poor crabs in a bucket
got us warring pulling straps out on our cousins
it’s a game dozens god has a sense humor
dark comedy, we just wanna build a future
that’s better than the past we survived thru
i shed blood for this like a piru
like link in hyrule, no magical sword tho
just a big heart beating in my torso
few shots got m stumbling back to the car
looking at the moon asking who is god?
is my voice being heard? cause my soul hurts
should i let her take the wheel and be my chauffeur?
driving thru a unknown route
how am i getting back home now?

[napoleon da legend hook]

throughout my life i’ve seen some highs and some lows
and i carved a path all on my own
out of my reach had to get back on the road
i wear it proudly on my soul
