[Intro]
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal
That they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights
That among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness
That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men
Deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed
That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends
It is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it

[Verse]
Behold, what we hold is three-fold—
Body and spirit to be thrones for free souls
Self is the evidence, please close the freak shows
And depose the evils, our peoples are equals
Retold, I declare the independence
Of all the offenders stuck in the appendix
And if I don't experience the glorious ascendance
At least I'm interfering for the souls of my descendants
And in all fairness, I am in appearance
A little under-dressed for such a serious affair, it's
Not that I don't care, I'm just wary/weary of the wear
The various and nefarious barriers to their ears
I'm here to show the kids that somebody still cares
Why it such a big deal what the kid still wears?
Y'all feel me? What I'm saying?
They playing with our community
Feigning our cause while brutally
Claiming our thoughts are lunacy
Blaming it on our truancy from schools with no pros
Chaining our opportunity to fluency and clothes
So then I've chosen, while my foes is dozing
I devote my soul to closing holes in
Prose I follow my nose in
Opposing those who sow sin
Frozen like a snowman
To the cause I dig my toes in
Till the dirt to grow some rose in
Composing like Beethoven, to the deaf, or just the hard of hearing
Complacent faces, vacant breasts, bereft of all the feeling
A nation due for inspection, this the audit, herein
Lies the fear in the eyes of our departed dearly—
Cold bodies facing .22, man in blue
You can't refuse to take the cards the dealer handed you
Life, Liberty, all the Ecstasy you can pursue
Anyone can choose, but understand a n***a can't pick two
Life, Liberty, all the Ecstasy you can pursue
Anyone can choose, but understand a n***a can't pick two
Understand a n***a can't pick two
