[verse: Napoleon Da Legend]
Introverted you know my album intro perfect
Unannounced at the venue I came and ripped the curtains
These motherfuckers love it cause I live the verses
Curt Henning cut from a different shirt mister perfect
Japanese cartoon shit Don’t even speak of power
I can harpoon a cruise ship thru the freedom tower
This ain’t for the average casual listener
Mind of a sado-masochist super max prisoner
Abolishioner catalyst maker
Bag an amazon traveling to the equator
Actually Granada, Rest In Peace to Roc Raider
Business deals on the table peace we talk later
I was quiet kid in school I’m still a private body
Silently making my moves like Michael Avenatti
Unscrew my brain let the juice loose
If this was back in the game id probably be in the Juice Crew
Big daddy rap saint patties day for rap
If I wasn’t this nice, I probably would have played the back
We want a redo should have never let the pilgrims in
Po explosive in the lane, Zion Williamson
In the wilderness survived I got the will for this
Come to think some will kill this ...
Inadvertent how I inverted the pyramid
Introverted only do this for my heritage
This is phase 4 we getting there

[Verse 1: Napoleon Da Legend]
Profanity I rock clothes for vanity
Plan to be great I made my way with no family
Still pro-humanity do the most with what they handed me
They throw rocks I'm a eat and grow that just the man in me
I set examples while the forensics collect samples
Seen him get selfish and get wrecked by a sex scandal
I’m The next Rambo Jordanesque vandal
That means I hit the target and come with correct ammo
Get ya neck strangled face mutilated
If u been thru what I been I doubt that you'd have made it
Flew Vegas eating salad with some rutabaga
Few can relate I planted a seed then I grew the paper
And move courageous I knew I make it Po
I never had to fake it tho work ethic played a major role
Snatch ya hallow, release the payload, not for the fakos
The snakes cloaked like Snoke but I’m a pray tho
[Hook x 2]
While you was Netflixing and chill I took risks
While you was gossiping with ya friends I took risks
While you was chasing ass and popping bottles I took risks
You was 9 to fiving I was grinding I took risks
[Verse 2: Napoleon Da Legend]
Manager screaming an epiphany I had to chuckle
Right there I knew I just wasn’t built for that type of hustle
If I’m a work I’m a just work for me everyday getting a dozen emails from dudes who want a verse from me
I don’t work for free, you know bout the birds and bees
Those complaining back in the day were the first to sleep
They criticized and I was cooking now they trying to book em
Real Hollywood from Harlem I’m a fly to Brooklyn
Fuck ya Facebook that pizza really taste good
Caking off the game cause I can make a phrase good
Musics my playbook I throw game to y’all
And those who wanna throw shade I’m so ashamed of y’all
Drown in bitterness bitch ya flow ain’t liquid
Y’all full of gimmick its overkill y’all over did it
You know it’s real when I say it broke or rich same shit
Napoleono is nothing to play with
[Hook x 2]
While you was Netflixing and chill I took risks
While you was gossiping with ya friends I took risks
While you was chasing ass and popping bottles I took risks
You was 9 to fiving I was grinding I took risks

[verse 1: Napoleon Da Legend]
Swole head I let my ego spread
Shorty spread eagle on bed
The buzz got a placebo effect my people oppress
They give the people less leading with some evil intent
I took chances now I’m eating on the strength
With my conglomerate
A consummate professional excellence comes with confidence
Makes em uncomfortable that bucket full of crabs
I leave the venue with an envelope that’s full of cash
Ducking investigations and police interrogations
If u ever made me wait I never had that type of patience
Catch me if can like DiCaprio and Hanks
On patio flanked with a few baddies and a drink
Flashing like a king gone in a flash if u blink
I’ll be laughing way after half these rappers are extinct
Chapter ended going back to the beginning
People gravitate to winners start clapping when I finish
[Hook: Napoleon Da Legend]
This ain’t even a game don’t play yourself
This ain’t ya lane don’t play yourself
U ain’t built for this pain don’t play yourself
This ain’t game ....
[verse 2: Napoleon Da Legend]
I deal science numbers and mathematics
Back then we used to drink whisky bottles by the gallon
On the Cayman Islands with my wife looking sexy
I ain’t looking at you Becky check yourself before you check me
This chess not checkers I move like Carlsen Magnus
Money chase me be coming thru automatic
Sort of like a maverick, Mark Cuban reference
Cause riots like Martin Luther marching through Selma
Smell that aroma greatness hits ya nose
In the future I might be the most famous kid you know
In the physical realm the feel I give is surreal
Like a Salvador Dali piece reaching immortality
While America was teaching immorality
From B.More to Valley Stream whoring for a salary
I re-formatted my reality and rose
Thru the fray and broke the wall like D Rose’s Bones

[verse 1: Rim]
Rowdiness this dudes ain't for the culture they just tribal theft
And queens, bugging thotting and hopping on any obelisk
You floating disk I tele-drift esoteric to optimist
My aura shade not in Sephora a hood kabbalist
Smoking tree of life and chopping serving up sefirot
My fez gotta brim in front walk my path secular
But believe in a higher one celestial with a vestaview
In my element it's no telling what that metal do
Throw bars to beats in a spiral I Fibonacci
Sequence how they dressing they rhymes woman's laundry
Nimrods if you want the drama I'm the knowledge God
Know I keep the culture freedom power for them flugalrods
Out the atmosphere Nirubu status got the gak in there
Capers pulled before I could planet not a floating sphere
Yea this is 2pac mentored by Enoch
Street code depicted in art written in white chalk bong
[hook: Napoleon Da Legend]
Its that Davinci Code how much that Davinci sold?
We won the ring already we bout to win many mo
[Verse 2: Napoleon Da Legend
Unify the titles kid I crucify ya idols
Do or die bravado we clashing Mano a Mano
Pharaohgamo El Dorado you failed to follow the path of the
Eloheem the hallow squeeze my motto is don't follow me
I brawl with demons Lucifer’s student of the Buddha phi - losophy
I constantly battle with the illiminus
Unscrupulous my nucleus, subatomic and nuclear
From Saturn got em tuning in from Neptune to Jupiter
Science my mind is mystic pay attention might have missed it
Who else is as prolific and took the art passed the limit
It’s the power cypher killing leviathan and titans
In the righteous light I cause crisis Christ like like
Spend my weekends talking shit with an altered way of thinking Abe Lincoln black version table flipping label dissing
I enabled victim empower and make investments
10,000 Miles away from home but Gamo stay connected
[Hook x 2: Napoleon Da Legend
Its that Davinci Code how much that Davinci sold?
Magnifico below the screen, pick and roll
Those who really know will tell you how it really go
We won the ring already we bout to win many mo

[Napoleon Da Legend verse 1]
Draw a sigil disappointment is something u gotta live thru
Life a ritual I’m god thru the fog I see crystal
Some’ll rob with pistols like pirate In Mogadishu
The scars of growing up without having a soul to reach you
My minds a remote ingest music like a placebo
That’s the key though, keep curving these nerds like Aikido
Threats I side step you wanna hang with the leg bring the rope
The only way u hang is by the neck
Boba Fett, u can get body snatched over ya debt
I’m jordanesque I call em out who wanna the court next
I’m tormenting the aforementioned bring your four henchmen raw tension figure four clenches tore tendons
Flip side running businesses and joint ventures
Tenderloin dinners Zazie Beetz blowing kisses
Stoic thinker setting off on a heroic mission
On this planet and leave my mark on the solar system
[Napoleon Da Legend Hook] x 2
Never cook inside another mans kitchen
The fool always speaks and the wise man listens
How u gonna build ya whole brand over bitching?
While u running to the bag u just ran from the wisdom
[Napoleon Da Legend verse 2]
I condone weak talk like the blood doing the c-walk
Catch me at the peace park u dying trying to be hard
Corn ball never grew up from ya young brain
Vampires broke the fuck the out soon as the sun came
Got y’all repeating everything that Trump saying?
Got u jumping like puppet from a Kobe pump fake?
Looking crusty like a cum stain some blame others
Some tried to build mutual understanding became brother
I’m in immature era, where clinical depression
And opioid dependence is keeping the masses helpless
Looking for leaders to follow and only dollars we trust
Toxic narratives we swallowing up
And who suffers it’s only us, we a gullible bunch
Sullied by a pot of gold what a colorful punch
To the gut but you know what?
We still the most resilient
Multiplied throughout the globe we a full 7 billion
[Napoleon Da Legend Hook] x 2
Never cook inside another mans kitchen
The fool always speaks and the wise man listens
How u gonna build ya whole brand over bitching?
While u running to the bag u just ran from the wisdom

[Verse 1: Napoleon Da Legend]
His father left when he was eight, half eaten plate
Hard to love eat and pray his innocence makes him an easy prey
Hard to alleviate the hurt, when he sees his mom struggle
John Cena poster on the wall working his arm muscles
Using anime hero’s as his role models
So he trains in the basement everyday to grow his powers
Born with a small frame, the bullies on the hunt
Soon as that school bell rings, he was on the run
Today they stole his lunch kept him off the basketball court
In a classroom alone drawing on the board
Never bored though imagination off the charts
Little did he know what he touch turn to art
Eviction notice two jobs too busy to notice
His moms working hard bout to go court tomorrow
Eating macadamias watching Hero Academia
In his basement only way he knows how to escape it
[Hook: Napoleon Da Legend x 2]
Don’t let em steal ya joy
They gonna try to break u down cause they soul is broke down
But never let em steal ya joy
Cause they sure to break down when that karma round
So...
[Verse 2: Napoleon Da Legend]
Stacy was a gem and gems find it hard to blend
Even in her grey school uniform and cardigan
Not the most popular she had a few friends
Getting picked on in the bathroom by these bad girls again
They pull her braids out when she made her way out
In the hallway everybody laughing at her straight out
She didn’t cry she was strong kept it inside
Tried to keep it normal still humble and kind
Afraid to come to school the next day she didn’t tell her parents
She would try to face it on her own merits
They throw soda on her skirt saying she peed on herself
Environments are harsh they try to tell us be herself
But when you different people are clickish they wanna clown you
If u don’t belong to the tribe they gonna down you
But Stacy was special, she even made the news
May 17th she hung herself inside her room
[Hook: Napoleon Da Legend x 2]
Don’t let em steal ya joy
They gonna try to break u down cause they soul is broke down
But never let em steal ya joy
Cause they sure to break down when that karma round
So...

[verse 1: Napoleon Da Legend]
Catch me on the top floor popping corks
South paw Thick skin rocking soft cloth
Knock ya socks off work a verse like I work a desi
Shirt sweaty get that ass murked like Freddie
It’s my birth right to fly over clouds and rock crowds
Cause I talk wild nothing overnight I fought a while
Cristiano irregular patterns attract atoms
Recognized at the grocery store when I grab items
Got a fly brunette light up the room when she smile
She Fantasizing that I fertilize her womb with a child
Driving thru red lights violating stop signs
While these cops try to lodge bullets inside of gods minds
I’m the prize at the end of tunnel that the lost find
10 projects in a year making up lost time
Skid marks Michelin’s on my car
The way I cook up (breath) I should get a Michelin star
[Hook: Giallo Point cuts]
[verse 2: Napoleon Da Legend]
Laser beam rap razor blade themes
Stutter step got you on skates fade-away threes
88 degrees not ya regular formation
Scientists wanna study my molecular rotation
My next single took the British out of Brexit
Knocked the star out the flag in Texas
As I list my successes adding skeletons to my collection
Thru the years health was something I often neglected
I’m not a man, I’m godly vessel what I got is special
That’s what I’m told and what u see is what I sold
I split ya cosmos in half while u smoking grass
Grow up everyday I might have change for what u saw me as
Professional insomniac bombing facts
Take ya years to decipher where Pharaohgamos at
U too small what I envision is large
The kind of shit like I should get a Michelin star

[Napoleon Da Legend verse 1]
General tso how I peddle the flow
Better than most don’t mix with the kettle
And goats
In the pocket like a wallet talking like a prophet
Abraham or Moses taste of Ambrosia
Flight jacket with the nice fabric
Straight savage till my habitat turn lavish
Switch shoes leave the baggage on the floor
Tackling the quarterback jacking up the score
Plaques and awards autographs on tour
Trips to Africa with the whole staff on board
Card games playing retro arcade games
Scarface chains and stock exchange trades
Portfolio mindstate my mind great
Last minute flight change when I migrate
Bar wise u a flyweight
Stuck in the sunken place like Kanye
[Napoleon Da Legend Hook] x 2
Let’s get back to the matters at hand
Our people want more we bout we grab the land
Traversing thru deserts of molten sand
Nod in agreement if you overstand
[Napoleon Da Legend verse 2]
From Flatbush to Skidrow Madrid to Morocco
Witness the debacle like events in Moscow
Got the crowd hype like Sunday Pentecostal
Otherwise catch me in the crib like Boscoe
Jean-Michel Basquiat stencil
Foul mental pull ya file to offend you
Wild accidentals in the hotel room
I was mad at the promoter cause the show fell thru
Case u wondering / I’m a win the Nobel too
I’m a win even I lose Po fail proof
Opinel moves exacto, defacto
Po Kill rookies and vets with an ax tho
My math grow reached a plateau I'm passed those
head nod bloody the dashboard
Off the back board my jay is high percentage
Metroid the spot’ll self destruct in 5 minutes I’m of here
[Napoleon Da Legend Hook] x 2
Let’s get back to the matters at hand
Our people want more we bout we grab the land

[Napoleon Da Legend verse 1]
Driving with broken headlights Henny to get my head right
My ends light getting bent right before event night
Seeing a line out door like damn
Questioning like / what gives me the right to have fans?
Dreamt my dreams out in public for everybody to hear
My Personal reflection gave everybody a mirror
Seeing life thru the eyes of a man who traveled lands
And put forward my best foot the rest is out of my hands
I don’t find time to rant on a timeline I speak for the likes minds private thoughts no meant for the prime-time
And maybe in my lifetime I’ll see the seeds flourish
Like the birth of child things worthwhile need courage
Give you nothing refurbished just that new fresh food
I talk and break the fourth wall that’s a dead pool move
This ain’t just rap when I speak I’m standing next to you
I guess it’s a part of my calling always bent the rules
[Napoleon Da Legend hook] x 2
Rules were meant to be broken so I broke em
And all my doubts were meant to loud so I’m a choke em
Every man, women and child needs hope
And if ya spirit dirty and foul you need soap
[Napoleon Da Legend verse 2]
My brain is complex my train of thoughts is a mess
In New York for many years I rode a train for a check
Praying for a break that's a mistake I worked for it quit the workforce then I turned into a work horse
With Turquoise nightmares and lavender dreams
I hopped into the drivers side from the passenger seat
Nonchalantly walking past the debris the road was rugged
And packed light kid I had to let go of the luggage
My attitude was screw who don’t see it
If they don’t feel it locally? I’m a make my tours European
Low key and humble you can pump ya chest out
Self proclaim all you want I’m a still be the best out
I’m Not only speaking raps it’s deeper than that
So watch ya mouth
Do the math cause what you speak you attract and no doubt
Keep em intrigued from the fact I’m so consistent
And real, put my soul in it for y’all listen
[Napoleon Da Legend hook] x 2
Rules were meant to be broken so I broke em
And all my doubts were meant to loud so I’m a choke em
Every man / women and child needs hope
And if ya spirit dirty and foul you need soap

Feeling out of place when I came to the states
Didn't speak the language couldn’t maintain face
Used to play pick up they would pick me last
When they tried to block bank it on the plexy glass
Lisa was my crush she had a sexy ass
When I Wrote her a love note she would diss me fast
Prince George county represent represent sent
Yo MTV raps Rap City heaven sent sent
I ain’t have to worry the about rent then
We would watch the Redskins
Jordan joined the Wizards we got bent then
House parties we would rock the mic and it was hype
Alcohol in the system often ended in a fight
Chicks were passing me by I was bumping Pharcyde
Was a riot at the hospital the day my pops died
I learn pain wasn't pain until you felt real pain
Scars and bruises on my soul made me learn real game
[Nejma Nefertiti x Napoleon Da Legend pre-hook]
You got Point Po? All the time Yo
You scoring points Po? I’m on the line bro
You on point Po? I’m here to shine yo
So put ya money where ya mouth is and let me know

This for my tribe it’s blessing to be alive
Take a deep breath everything will aight

on a world tour with BBass my man
And pushing beyond any limit that’s the master plan
Might seem like an artist all eye seeing martyr
With Beats, Rhymes and Life, midnight was marauding
In the city, consuming the music like drug abusers
Trolling is the game but love is movement
In the midst of Marshall law they bringing tank to the urban
We got it from here scram, thank you for your service
As I me combine all the juice from the mind
And Busta Rhyme, strength within the youth is divine
A particular curriculum like Krilin versus Freeza
Turn Goku to supa-saiyan new levels for us to reach and
Aborigine original seed breed
Revolution won’t be on YouTube or TV
So fuck the algorithm cause music is our religion
Follow the path of rhythm, this is how we living and
