[Chorus: samples of Keith Murray & Method Man]
"I make music for my peoples"
"'Cause that's my people"
"I make music for my peoples"
"'Cause that's my people"

[Verse 1: Kool Shen]
I'll tell you what I like: smoking on spliffs
And then creating competitive riffs
To make music all while preserving my ethics
Making bank without tarnishing the image of my clique
It's crazy but it's like that, I feed off it
I need it, my equilibrium depends on it
I'm on the mic, man, and I love it
I love when it goes "Pow!" When it comes from deep down and when it's not
Polished, refined, too much sophistication is a sin
I'd rather seek the truth without cheating
Without ever betraying my principles
And then maintain my role, hold down the block, stay in pole position
Uncomfortable, but that's okay, I like the challenge
Wearing the jersey bearing the marks of those who disapprove
Is an honor for me as it is for all my accomplices
My partners, my associates, tired of this farce
We don't wanna submit and keep playing the henchmen no more
Know that what I aspire to is just that my people breathe
