[Napoleon Da Legend Verse 1]
Magnetic from my shirt to the sneakers
I birth heaters like fetuses cause the earth need it
The perfect leader circulate this work throughout the regions
Not to be confused with the minor leaguers
Blood and sweat leaking no time for sleeping
I guess that’s the price of freedom
[Napoleon Da Legend Verse 2]
On my afro-griz
Cash flow not from agro-biz
Body shots that’ll crack ya ribs
Dropping forever the facts with some natural wit
Full fledged Pharaohgamo back and forth on the Verrazano
My voice forever bless the Seratos
Black desperado access granted
Bless the planet expanding I’m bout to upset the rankings
[Napoleon Da Legend Verse 3]
Prophetic meat with a side of lettuce
Ya life will improve when you learn to die better
Beautiful like the soul of Mary J Blige
This is fuel for the people in their everyday lives
We the strugglers the government be trying to get us
We won’t let him fresh like the new Benz CLS’s
Maturing Burkina Faso with Mathurin
I ain’t bust in the game to get down with current
Or the Status Quo, I’m disturbing it serving em the baddest quote
Murderous that’s my assassins flow
Invest in myself sit back and let the cash grow
Never lacking, I peeped it from a macro
Point of view, my purview is my worldview
These bum rappers made it their biz to discourage you
Never listen to the devil chatter
They tried to white-ball still I climb several ladders
Friends who I thought was cool I still love em
Still I had to cut em out of the picture cause it was clutter
Muddying the waters made money across the waters
Crossing borders visiting sites being a tourist
Prepared for this like Chuck Norris and the pay offs enormous
So why let ya potential stay dormant?

[Napoleon Da Legend verse 1]
Politic left a fascist death
Flashed ya ends karma hit cha then you crash ya bends
N to the D. L. that’s the acronym
I rather clash with the enemy then clash with friends
Prostituting ass rappers trying to catch a trend
The saccharin inside they tank you gotta factor in
So do the math the facts is in their chapter ends
At the time that mines begins, my mind is fringe
Thru the ugly and the dark the people are money starved
Gotta show strength like the New-Zealand rugby squad
Bloody wars so we can have clothes and food
They sold us a dream by picking out a chosen few
Millionaires chilling for the billionaires class
Who also never care that's why we can’t get Medicare passed
And it’s clear who first and who last
The weak shall inherit the earth in a new era the first shall be last
Show strength
[DJ TMB scratches]
[Napoleon Da Legend verse 2]
Decisions hard to make between ya value and ya values
Evaluating how you gonna make it thru the vacuum
Of morals where sorcerers drop spells on all of us
Caught up in a bubble where it’s hard to tell normal is
They tried to make me dumb my brain
And come down to a train of thought of clowns and lames
But I’ve been trained in the arts of Zen
My thoughts can bend
My body can transcend this realm from a park bench
With the strength of Clark Kent I can spark and send
An energy wave that can penetrate and char ya skin
Figured out, life was deeper than a loss and a win
Cloth of a sphinx never getting lost in wind
Lost friends bad investments I lost some ends
They sold us mad propaganda it’s all a spin
But our instinct of survival is strong we icons
With sights on the better things in life we keep our head up
And show strength

[Napoleon Da Legend verse]
Throwing shots from a glass house black out we take the cash route
While they flashing for clout we bringing facts out
Surrounded by skillful snakes, stacking bills like Bill Gates
It’s marvelous and otherwise I’m still great
Defacto otherwise exacto in my wallet
Plus factor in the fact that my jacket is so flawless
Got the devil scheming on everything my team is on
They see the Don! I’m akin to the soul Akhenaton
And Kenshiro we never listen to Ben Shapiro and identify with Neo Liberal dreams spawn across boroughs
And electrify the scene I'm immaculate
And if it sounds larger than life that shit is accurate
[Toney Boi verse]

This is god level my train of thought special
The whole squad thorough nah we do not settle
Sword slice arteries blood on the canvas
Unleash my minions flood up ya campus
While they try to slander me in slick ways
I got techniques to shape the way you die in 6 ways
Military style switch blade Sicknature lasers
90s like quotables I pick major phrases
My name resonates over the waves like I’m famous
From Brooklyn to Copenhagen only dope shit we making
[Sicknature verse]

[Napoleon Da Legend verse]
No flashy toys can slap an asteroid off course
Gladiator wars suggest u avoid him at cost
Never slack off watching y’all get gassed off a little bit
A little buzz at interviews all shy and giggling?
Catch me at shows with my forehead glistening
Electrical disturbances u see the lights flickering?
Career extinguisher above the petty bickering
Style guaranteed to bust thru the pile like Eric Dickerson

[Napoleon Da Legend verse]
Had a bone spur I never caught that growth spurt
I chose work shows overseas I sold merch
My soul hurt, life can be a cold jerk
Still I got my eyes, my ears and my legs thank god they both work
Ain't gotta stylized my life for ya been places
Just do ya set 30 second rest gym basics
Been gracious been embraced vintage Wind breakers
One day I make a couple 100k for hitting stages
Y’all ain’t seen nothing yet living life in double x
Chubby checker grubbing at restaurants cashing chubby checks
Backstage shorty rock a slutty dress she know my preference
Told her to chill but she don’t listen yo she so aggressive
Back to back meetings staggered sleeping patterns I’m a dreamer
Visualize the realism still I picture Eden
We co-create every moment that we step in
Here today gone tomorrow can be over in a second
Trying to tell me to wait /motherfucker no I’m gone
Fuck ya song, you the type sucking and cucking to get on
We don’t do that I just invest, I make my loot back
Suleyman I school em on emoluments u knew that
The human monument communist you fond of this
Who trying to diss the finest got you snorting up a line of this
Straight organics out the canister
Peep the mechanics got the stamina that’s word
From my medical examiner

[Napoleon Da Legend verse 1]
Yo high frequency no 5G
So fly slide inside the spot with no ID
Cat no drive always try to ride a coattail
I got a chick coming you ain’t crashing the hotel
Middle of Prague and I’m feeling just a little groggy
Drank coffee back from the gym chiseled body
No pity parties here homie we work hard
Took a leap, first feet a rebirth sparks
Since I first started
Heads knew when I hit that
Something special happened dude couldn’t spit that
Street griot intellect C.E.O. flex
Neo, Excaliber sword in a text
My Cortex muscle full of hustle, my knuckles drag
Gorilla style bags of money where the duffle at
Whole click official and rich mad talented
Hitting switches in the lab, mad scientist
[Napoleon Da Legend hook]
The game got hard some switched up
I just kept getting richer
Reading Karl Marx and Krishna
I just wanna get richer
The game got hard some switched up
I just kept getting richer
Reading Karl Marx and Krishna
I just wanna get richer
[Napoleon Da Legend verse 2]
Keep my capital active activist
Collateral damage action pragmatist
Pyramid climber Egyptian scribe
You acting like u seen a ghost babe fix ya eyes
I’m Anubis met a fly reporter, she a nudist
Eating falafels and vegan foods like a Buddhist
I don’t say I’m nicer than them I just prove it
You can buy co-signs but can’t smother what the truth is
Stone face like a putting a mirror to Medusa
I deal with guidelines of honor like a Yakusa
Red rooster off 2 fifth and if the shoe fits?
I’m a wear em proudly until my mood switch
Stanley Kubrick stylish when I shoot flix
Confidential info not for loose lips
You could probably get with it if you was solid
We only go by a code of honor do the knowledge
[Napoleon Da Legend hook]
The game got hard some switched up
I just kept getting richer
Reading Karl Marx and Krishna
I just wanna get richer
The game got hard some switched up
I just kept getting richer
Reading Karl Marx and Krishna
I just wanna get richer

[Napoleon Da Legend verse 1]
Emotionless and mathematically going against the odds
Address the fraud be my guest you going up against a god
Who next to exercise their right I disconnect effective
When I Write and flex
Me and my tribe connect and speak in dialects
I’m a entire threat to corporatists, my politics
Might rival yours a child of war
How many heads I’m chopping off
Dropping classic like the commodores I run the score honky dore
Chill with a naughty whore rocking Armani short
They copy more from the original charisma shows
Took a different road to break like connecting fist to nose
Running the pick and roll like Steph Curry thru the defense
So many rappers sending shots forgetting who to beef with
I gave em speeches helped them travel without a Visa
The crowd pleaser charging 40,000 for a feature
The one and only, Master of Ceremony I’m goldie
Like the homie Ice Cube I’m my own league
[Napoleon Da Legend Hook]
Only as good my worse as long as I’m walking this earth
My soul gonna reflect in my work
Not a slave duke respect my worth
Sprinkle water for your thirst
In my tribe we put the people first
Only as good my worse as long as I’m walking this earth
My soul gonna reflect in my work
Not a slave duke respect my worth
Sprinkle water for your thirst
In my tribe we put the people first
[Napoleon Da Legend verse 2]
Automated warfare the course is clear
The game remains the players change switching office chairs
Neo-liberal promises got us cynical
About the system and it’s inherit racism visible
By awakened minds blinded by the naked eye
Appropriating our style and culture how they plagiarize
And water down the substance to commercialize abundance
Cause we ain’t nothing but a
Bunch of numbers to these number crunchers
The world is in a choke hold the climate changing
Still it’s so cold under the table money that’s the ghost mode
Chasing the dough so we can postpone our inner peace
Show boating in between, my dojo was in the streets
Don’t mistake the humble when there’s nowhere safe to run to
Forced to make decisions that can’t replace or undo
And you come to age, everything that fake’ll crumble
Falling for the pump fake while u was chasing bundle
[Napoleon Da Legend Hook]
Only as good my worse as long as I’m walking this earth
My soul gonna reflect in my work
Not a slave duke respect my worth
Sprinkle water for your thirst
In my tribe we put the people first
Only as good my worse as long as I’m walking this earth
My soul gonna reflect in my work
Not a slave duke respect my worth
Sprinkle water for your thirst
In my tribe we put the people first

Golden Oligarchs

[Napoleon Da Legend verse 1]
Dictator beheader beloved my cadence is blessed
The greatest and best the hate is test
A plate eggs with organic kale to escalate the treats
My guardian angel on the passenger side while we chasing this bread
Tax returns require 40 accountants
Shorty crashing on my couch got my wifey shouting
Black Beard, Africans who racketeered last year
Basement billionaires on top roof tops gasping for air
Space shuttle Reebok’s floating on the sidewalk
Flash about 6 and 7 figures then I might talk
Galvanizing populations from post offices
On my soap box, watching soap operas frolicking
With Moroccan nurses pocket dialed verses
American Oligarch copping crocodile purses
Quantum physics wallets that politician gossip
You can’t listen rocking 80 dollar watches
[Napoleon Da Legend hook]
Pass customs we some passport gluttons
With the cheat codes while these dudes mash more buttons
Switch hemispheres, what you know about December summers?
Goodbye you bums, we making Dubai numbers
Pass customs we some passport gluttons
With the cheat codes while these dudes mash more buttons
Switch hemispheres, what you know about December summers?
Goodbye you bums, we making Dubai numbers

7 star Hyatt’s beam down to bean town
Clean crown, they would say my face was silver screen bound
The dream realizers, goal trivializers
Tribalist supreme novelist and not gimmick rider
Heavy chain costly ask Keith Shockley
Beef broccoli Hunan style pornography yo
Oda with the "One Piece", Grand Line activist
Aggrandize my life yo I stand by the savages
Jewels Icey, freeze lava then skate on it
Pay homage to the money bag that sunny day profit
The cash clicking turn signal blinking
Hacking the system with single black women
Bout 12 singles winning
At the same time streaming I get studied the geniuses
"Epi-genetically" trying to figure out what gene it is
Portofolio can't be fucked with like sports with Polio
Jesus as a teenager: my thoughts is holy yo
[Napoleon Da Legend hook]
Pass customs we some passport gluttons

[Napoleon Da Legend verse]
I’m black gold
U can try appropriate you can’t copy that glow
We stack money like so run the iso
Got em digging for the substance some are stuck on hype tho
Some might blow then it might blow up in they face
It was popping up until narcs showed up to their place
Peep the doctrine something u gotta keep some options
It’s economics growing mentally is all a process
[Hubbs verse]

[Napoleon Da Legend verse]
Who else as gifted as me don’t tell me different
Dante’s inferno feel thru hell felt the friction
Elevated mind like a young Christopher Hitchens
Not the old one practical no/ mystical wishes
No amount of trophies / can validate the man
These cats been a scam trying to re-calibrate the brand
United States caliphate we migrate thru state lines
Gunplay they entertain to numb brains we stay wise
And sharp like a new pair Clarke’s at 8 clock
Played the block broke down the mechanics and made em watch
They wanna watch us die, we still alive tho
Grown man physically mentally still a child tho
Stuck in habits u couldn’t shake or put the brakes on
Channel it in music change ya life pull an Akon
Senegalese wisdom my speech different
I had rather get myself free than keep bitching
Tapes Vinyl CDs shipping like it’s the 90s
Urban safaris cell phones! Paparazzis
Sometimes I feel like somebody watching everything I do every move I make that’s means I gotta choose
Carefully everything gotta be measured
It’s a spiritual warfare that’s before the Armageddon
We prepared we know the enemy comes in many forms
Then peace feeds serenity and that’s when knowledge is born

[Napoleon Da Legend verse 1]
They fabricated lies after sabotaging lives
You read it in Bible psalms this climate was prophecized
The earth is crying the forest is burning
Insomniac middle of the night tossing and turning
What’s my place in this whirlwind ? where snakes achieve
Honorable folks in line, waiting for a plate to eat
Killing our great minds no safe places to speak
The only way to go is down once u facing ya peak
Ancient teachings black and brown getting racist treatment
Chances you might get judged cause of ya facial features
We pray to Jesus and pray to Allah we pray to god
And read the Buddha, Siddhartha was a straight shooter
We was born sick, half of our vision is glitched
Looking to some external stimulation to fix
With a fixation on the rich, they stealing culture from the poor
I was born in war that why I’m a soldier to the core
[Napoleon Da Legend hook]
While they was thinking I was M.I.A
I was staying sucka free I was just making my way
All I wanted was a glimpse of what it be like
To be on the other side experience what it feel like
While they was thinking I was M.I.A
I was staying sucka free I was just making my way
All I wanted was a glimpse of what it be like
To be on the other side experience what it feel like
[Napoleon Da Legend verse 2]
Pristine water swimming with the stingrays
Been brave walking to the beat of my own Jembe
Soul of Kinte, masterful sensei with a twin blade
I’m in shape strong fist to the jaw make his chin break
Disappointed when I see a friend flake but such is life tho
I kept going despite of warning signs I’m such a psycho
But life is short I’m a speed thru it like Schumacher
Live my truth proper keep dropping these jewels throughout the process
And move passed the gossip and the politics
Breathing in some oxygen from exotic places rocking crowds again
Anti-establishment they capping then be cashing in
And when you ask my fee, all my struggle got to factor in
And while most were faking a few stayed real!
And we can tell who playing games and got a "2K" feel
I was drinking whiskey they were drinking kool-aid still
Throughout the chaos only see the truth when you lay still
[Napoleon Da Legend hook]
While they was thinking I was M.I.A
I was staying sucka free I was just making my way
All I wanted was a glimpse of what it be like
To be on the other side experience what it feel like
While they was thinking I was M.I.A
I was staying sucka free I was just making my way
All I wanted was a glimpse of what it be like
To be on the other side experience what it feel like
