pele rap's revolutionary - renaissance lyrics
[intro: pele rr]
live 4
die 4
we don’t feel the same
on july 4th
-ssata shakur, exiled
rap’s revolutionary, meanwhile
feds probably got me in a red file
they say pele keep yo head down
[chorus: pele rr]
black problems, black problems
america we got a black problem
new slaves we so black conscious
renaissance we bringin’ back harlem
no back slidin’, my facts rhymin’
i’m black star and the new common
rap star, where did you find him?
deadprez and the roots rhymin’
i’m 2pac on that top ramen
made it out, hallelujah amen
loose the noose and spit truth to conscious
moms and pops made two copies
me and my bro like james baldwin
and steven biko ’til we treated equal
black diamonds, black diamonds
thats what the h-ll i call a black diamond
[verse 1: pele rr]
seen my life through the eyes of my pops
seen my dreams through the eyes of my moms
live life like no time anymore 5 in the morn’ if you hear rhymes then applaud
destined for greatness ‘fore destiny faked us
left us for bankrupts though death had forsake’d us
if this ain’t the matrix then what does that make us?
robots & aliens, s-xual s-d-sts?
we pedal wit bangers while peddling favors so evidently n-gg-s under surveillance
antic-p-tin’ my impending arraignment and throwin’ paper in the face of the bailiff
i hunger for haters & mumble a cadence so eloquently i was gonna be famous
though humble in nature i rumble with danger, young & had my fun i just wanted to taste it
my level of anguish, i revel to vanquish the devil wit rebels who never knew patience
i’m heavily anxious, that heavenly dank sh-t that mellows can meddle and settle in languish
despite all the perils thats leveled against us i herald the rebel whose metal is stainless
lest we unsettle the m-sses by language thats extra loquacious i offer libations
“hard in da paint” & “n-gg- we made it!”
rims is spinnin’ so i figured you hate us!
b-tches gettin’ b-tches, this is what fame is
livin’ sacrilegious how could you blame us?
currently industry practice is brainless
don’t need no trophies or medals or banquets
make me the vessel of your entertainment
and watch how they wrestle to register changes
[chorus: pele rr]
black problems, black problems
america we got a black problem
new slaves we so black conscious
renaissance we bringin’ back harlem
no back slidin’, my facts rhymin’
i’m black star and the new common
rap star, where did you find him?
deadprez and the roots rhymin’
i’m 2pac on that top ramen
made it out, hallelujah amen
loose the noose and spit truth to conscious
moms and pops made two copies
me and my bro like james baldwin
and steven biko ’til we treated equal
black diamonds, black diamonds
thats what the h-ll i call a black diamond
[verse 2: pele rr]
runnin’ from my troubles i struggled to make it
stumbled, neva fumbled, i shutter to think it
stuttered but i uttered, “if life’s what you make it?”
brotha, brotha, brotha “we might as well take it!”
studied on the writings of foremost of thinkers
muddied in the fighting of formal agreements
we are but the seeds of a budding solution
smuggled by the students of guerrilla movements
bloodied by that judas who wanna uproot us
flood us with intruders who act like they knew us
gut us, overrule us, and send us to jewelers
this is revolution, i’m callin’ all shooters
cuz homie the word is in
they tried to herd us like cattle
they’re rattled the rabble have circled in
rather than work with them
blacks have been hurt again
just like in birmingham
bombing the church and in
2015 man they shot up the church again
down there in charleston
this sh-t is pertinent
what is emergin’ occurs to be furtherin’
civil servants in intelligence services
when will the circus end? serpents who lurk within
prefer to turn this whole country to kurdistan
we are deterring them, we are what worries them
weak by subversion but we are determined and
we are the people who speak out for ferguson
burning with fervor they’re blatantly murdering
mama, papa, preacher all day we’re buryin’
how come our communities ain’t flourishin’
certain we must circ-mvent encirclement
hurry then brotha, sista skirmish them
don’t be discouraged when they send in servicemen
longest walk to freedom, when will the journey end?
[chorus: pele rr]
black problems, black problems
america we got a black problem
new slaves we so black conscious
renaissance we bringin’ back harlem
no back slidin’, my facts rhymin’
i’m black star and the new common
rap star, where did you find him?
deadprez and the roots rhymin’
i’m 2pac on that top ramen
made it out, hallelujah amen
loose the noose and spit truth to conscious
moms and pops made two copies
me and my bro like james baldwin
and steven biko ’til we treated equal
black diamonds, black diamonds
thats what the h-ll i call a black diamond
[outro: pele rr]
black diamonds
thats what the h-ll i call a black diamond
