King Mez - Youth In Revolt Pt.2 lyrics

[Intro: Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.] I accept the Nobel Prize for peace At a moment when 22 million negroes of the United States Are engaged in a creative battle To end the long night of racial injustice [Hook: King Mez & Well$] When you are who you think you are Feel like [?] Voices of a generation Start a revolution Can't [?] my back with all these nooses Well I guess this is my execution Someone tell my momma this my execution Nail a n***a to a cross, this my execution Can't [?] my back with all these nooses Well I guess this is my execution [Verse 1: Kig Mez] Plenty paranoia make it hard for me to see All these fans they say I got All this love thats in these streets All these bloggers writing about me Acting like they've seen what I've seen (shieeet) You ain't lovin' these streets You ain't murdering these beats n***a [Verse 2: Well$] You ain't put the work that we've put They ain't listening when you speak You ain't Jordan at his peak You ain't reaching all these kids And they'll throw flowers at your feet [Verse 3: King Mez] Keep ya coward in your seats (sh**) I can show you what a target is And it burn through the muscle and cartilage Top fade better than your barber is Or harbour this pain, so much pain Nice hair, growing up father less Where momma gun at knowing my momma miss I for one am not a fan of these .. n***as Keanu Reeves with piano keys (n***a) [Hook: King Mez & Well$] When you are who you think you are Feel like [?] Voices of a generation Start a revolution Can't [?] my back with all these nooses Well I guess this is my execution Someone tell my momma this my execution Nail a n***a to a cross, this my execution Can't [?] my back with all these nooses Well I guess this is my execution [Verse 4: Well$] Looking back on everything that we have started here This is T-Mac and Vince Carter in they hardest year Me and Mez back-to-back with that truce It's still black-on-black in his coupe I send a pair of n***as to shoot They screaming "execute, execute" This is something I'm blessed to do Only taking what I need Then I leave the rest with you I hope my words rest with you Hope that you find peace They eyein' me My dogs in these streets They trying to find a leash [Verse 5: King Mez] Cops want to execute me School system want to execute me World want to execute me While I'm young, black and dreaming Only the lord salute me Women wanna execute me Alcohol execute me This purple might execute me My pride might just execute me Rollin around with my n***as They rocking the blackest Uzi [Verse 6: Well$] They aim with no concious usually You hold no weight around here truly Better watch what you say dawg 4-50 and your face carved Everybody got n***as in the graveyard [Hook: King Mez & Well$] When you are who you think you are Feel like [?] Voices of a generation Start a revolution Can't [?] my back with all these nooses Well I guess this is my execution Someone tell my momma this my execution Nail a n***a to a cross, this my execution Can't [?] my back with all these nooses Well I guess this is my execution [Outro: Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.] I accept this award On the behalf of the civil right movement Which is moving with determination And the majestic scorn for risk and danger To establish a reign of freedom and a rule of justice I am mindful that only yesterday in Birmingham, Alabama Our children, crying out for brotherhood, were answered with fire hoses Snarling dogs and even d**h I am mindful that only yesterday in Philadelphia, Mississippi Young people seeking to secure the right to vote were brutalized and murdered And only yesterday more than 40 houses of worship in the State of Mississippi alone Were bombed or burned because they offered a sanctuary to those who would not accept segregation I am mindful that debilitating and grinding poverty afflicts my people And chains them to the lowest rung of the economic ladder
