J. Cole - HiiiPower lyrics

[Produced by J. Cole] [Intro] Everybody put three fingers in the air The sky is falling, the wind is calling Stand for something or die in the morning Section 80, HiiiPower [Verse 1] Visions of Martin Luther staring at me Malcolm X put a hex on my future, someone catch me I'm falling victim to a revolutionary song, the Serengeti's clone Back to put you backstabbers back on your spinal bone You slipped your disc when I slid you my disc You wanted to diss but jumped on my dick Grown men never should bite their tongue Unless you eating p**y that smell like it's a stale plum I got my finger on the mothaf**in' pistol Aiming it at a pig, Charlotte's web is going to miss you My issue isn't televised, and you ain't gotta tell the wise How to stay on beat, because our life's an instrumental This is physical and mental, I won't sugar coat it You'd die from diabetes if these other n***as wrote it And everything on TV just a figment of imagination I don't want plastic nation, dread that like a Haitian While you mothaf**as waiting, I be off the slave ship Building pyramids, writing my own hieroglyphs [Hook] Just call the sh** HiiiPower n***a nothing less than HiiiPower Five-star dishes, food for thought b**hes I mean the sh** is, Huey Newton going stupid You can't resist his HiiiPower Throw your hands up for HiiiPower [Verse 2] Visions of Martin Luther staring at me If I see it how he seen it, that would make my parents happy Sorry mama, I can't turn the other cheek They wanna knock me off the edge like a f**ing widow's peak, uhh And she always told me pray for the weak, uhh Them demons got me, I ain't prayed in some weeks, uhh Dear Lord come save me, the devil's working hard He probly clocking double shifts on all of his jobs Frightening, so f**ing frightening Enough to drive a man insane, I need a license to k** I'm standing on the field full of land mines Doing the moonwalk, hoping I blow up in time Cause 2012 might not be a f**ing legend Tryna be a f**ing legend, the man of mankind Who said a black man in the Illuminati? Last time I checked, that was the biggest racist party So get up off that slave ship Build your own pyramids, write your own hieroglyphs [Hook] Just call the sh** HiiiPower n***a nothing less than HiiiPower Five-star dishes, food for thought b**hes I mean the sh** is, Bobby Seale making meals You can't resist his HiiiPower Throw your hands up for HiiiPower [Bridge: Alori Joh] Every day we fight the system just to make our way We been down for too long, but that's alright We was built to be strong, cause it's our life, na-na-na Every day we fight the system, we fight the system We fight the system (Never like the system) We been down for too long but that's alright, na-na-na [Verse 3] Who said a black man in the Illuminati? Last time I checked, that was the biggest racist party Last time I checked, we was racing with Marcus Garvey On the freeway to Africa 'til I wreck my Audi And I want everybody to view my autopsy So you can see exactly where the government had shot me No conspiracy, my fate is inevitable They play musical chairs once I'm on that pedestal Frightening, so f**ing frightening Enough to drive a man insane, a woman insane The reason Lauryn Hill don't sing, or Kurt Cobain Loaded that clip and then said bang, the drama it bring is crazy Product of the late 80's Tryna stay above water, that's why we shun the navy Pull your guns and play me, let's set it off Cause a riot, throw a Molotov, somebody told me them pirates had got lost Cause we been off them slave ships Got our own pyramids, write our own hieroglyphs [Hook] Just call the sh** HiiiPower Yeah nothing less than HiiiPower Five-star dishes, food for thought b**hes I mean the sh** is, Fred Hampton on your campus You can't resist his HiiiPower Throw your hands up for HiiiPower [Outro] Thug Life! THUG LIFE!
