[verse 1: Napoleon Da Legend] Smiles and pretty faces on the stoop feeling welcome
Playing cards with Marcus Garvey Malcom and Mandela Nelson
Bob Marley in cut strumming on his guitar
Nina Simone humming to it by the bar
Seen my father gliding thru the dance floor like Fred Estair
Mom and pops back together and that made me shed a tear
No Medicare nobody needing welfare
So many fruits fresh vegetables is growing everywhere
Corner store owner says my money no good
Just grab anything you need and take back to the hood
Plus my grandma’s osteoporosis is gone
No Parkinson’s body working like it’s posed to respond
Playing pick up with Doogie and T we got next
Booked a seat to see a concert with 2Pac in the flesh
Cows grazing it’s a safe place kids can be kids dancing
And when I die lord take me up to thug mansion
[Hook: J. Phoenix] Every corner, every city
There’s a place where life’s a little easy
Little Hennessy, laid back and cool
Every hour, ’cause it’s all good
Leave all the stress from the world outside
Every wrong done will be alright
Nothing but peace, love, and street pa**ion
Every ghetto needs a thug mansion
[verse 2: Napoleon Da Legend] Deadly Departed Pac you left us broken hearted
Part of us died when you died you wasn’t just an artist
You used ya voice for the hopeless folk
Wit no focus left alone in this world in the cold
You gave is energy and hope monetarily forget our depression
We had to read between the lines to receive the lessons
They don’t want us to be smart they want us suffering
Feeding the machine for the rich while we keep struggling but
We know better you took a bullet for all of us
A martyr and for many of us you was father
A spark of inspiration for us to take it farther
True prophet in the flesh your power made you a target
Dropped album after album like your knew ya time was short
A whole generation thought they knew 2Pac shakur
We miss you dearly beloved I hope this reach you imagine
You Living like a king up in ya thug mansion
[Hook: J. Phoenix] Every corner, every city
There’s a place where life’s a little easy
Little Hennessy, laid back and cool
Every hour, ’cause it’s all good
Leave all the stress from the world outside
Every wrong done will be alright
Nothing but peace, love, and street pa**ion
Every ghetto needs a thug mansion
