Malcolm X

Yeah

K-Boy, Kendrick Lamar

I'm on the divisions, boy

High power, TB ain't shit up

Ya dig?

With no struggle, there's no progress

I make a feel in the hood to the projects

And I'm riding down the path of the success

You know them haters in them straps

But I took that by any means necessary nigga, I'ma get it

Fall down and get up, guaranteed I ain't quitting

So victory's the only outcome

Heart of a lion with the mind of Malcolm, yeah

They say great minds think alike

Well, I'ma think like Malcolm and Martin

Before I even think the right

I'm trying to have more good days than evil nights

No matter what they say my people ain't got equal rights

Hope we get wises and we better hit the visuals (yeah)

But all we have is funerals and candle light visuals

And gang banging and pimping is like a ritual

You lying ass rappers, I'm telling you obituary

Glasses say I can't get that so I'm thinking more

I need answers, so I'm knocking at the preacher's door

Told me never look back, so I proceed forward

I'm the hope for these niggers in the street sad war

Some niggers pulled it for me and tried to test my

Shot my car up, I wasn't thinking with my best mind

But my faith in God became on Teflon

That's why I cherish every moment in the waste time

With no struggle, there's no progress

I make a feel in the hood to the projects

And I'm riding down the path of the success

You know them haters in them straps

But I took that by any means necessary nigga, I'ma get it

Fall down and get up, guaranteed I ain't quitting

So victory's the only outcome

Heart of a lion with the mind of Malcolm, yeah

I said they trying to cap some G shit some more

Flow china white like a sheep in the snow

I go deep as the Bible I can debate with the pope

And you rappers go down and he go like a sky on the slope

I be on a boat with pappy

But I ain't trying to cop no work

I'm trying to cop me the boat and some more property

I told Rock you gotta be more than just a commodity

Make the house name and entity to infinity

They want me off the juice, no grenadier

And stop from thinking presidential like the scatterbrains of Kennedy

After is hot tuck down so the crowd won't witness me

Now, can somebody locate Mr Shakur?

And tell these two Pacs they two shots away from two blocks

Of being neighbors with our all mighty lord

We put your best material wind and fast forward

Kendrick signing off, I'm sure your signature's forged, boy

With no struggle, there's no progress

I make a feel in the hood to the projects

And I'm riding down the path of the success

You know them haters in them straps

But I took that by any means necessary nigga, I'ma get it

Fall down and get up, guaranteed I ain't quitting

So victory's the only outcome

Heart of a lion with the mind of Malcolm, yeah
