lyrics

[Napoleon Da Legend verse 1]
Derek Jeter, Eric B and Rakim ether
The target market reacher sipping margueritas
Carbon dioxide breather powerful leader
IG'er my pride is sort like Vegeta
Top seeder compete like Nike and Adidas
The clear winner, you blind,, how can you not see this?
Block elitist turn the block into a mausoleum
All this hypocrisy damn I wish 2pac could see it
Dark features mahogany colors the kid is promising scoring Andrew Carnegie numbers
I got that moxie, my legacy written, this is therapy
Blessed like Melanie Griffin back in the seventies
Blessed like the 76'ers with Allen Iverson
Talented like a rap group of Staten Islanders
I make my moves like a strategist
And bring pain like Method man for all you sado-masochists

[Skanks the Rap Martyr verse]
If you trying to stop me you finna pay
Cuz once I put my sights on something I want God bless whatever’s in the way
Me and Po a come rock ya house party
But not like Kid n Play what I display ain’t the same I say shit nobody else a say
Still it’s a lot of people sleeping thinking I’m not official
But since a rookie I been killing shit like Donovan Mitchell but that’s not an issue
Cuz I don’t give a fuck how you feel
I been escaped the plantation y’all still stuck in the field
Nat turner with these rap words I turn the tables on you
Fuck your label before I slay you it’s only right I warn you
Yeah you paid me for my voice
But I don’t care ima still say what I want
Fuck what you say slavery was not a choice
A few just wasn’t brave
Cause Harriet said she would of freed many more
if they just knew they wasn’t slaves
They raped our woman whipped us and set us on fire
Denied us book hanged us and hog tied us with barbwire

[Napoleon Da Legend verse 2]
Samuel Jackson Noriega Manuel
Opposite of well-mannered the heaven and hell battler
Made a name for myself because I sell language
And stunning tales that will make my money swell mammoth
High velocity rise philosophy wise
Khalil Gibran, Bible, Coran: I sift thru the lies
Choose side red or blue pill we shoot to kill
Maneuver thru the field my attitude is fuck how u feel
Po is agile and agile u fragile and fragile
U cash in I cash out swerving thru the fast route
Spit ya best darts, gave you a head start
I’m knocking heads off shoulders u better get smart
I set the bar higher wrap it up with barb wire
There’s only one truth that means these rappers all liars
The industry is all biased drop a jewel to remind ya
In case these bastards catch a case of Alzheimer’s
