Intro
DJs and MCs
In the place to be
Diamond D and Kweli
You're now rocking with the best
Get that hate off your chest
With no further ado
We bringin’ it straight to you

(Verse 1)
Beauty's in the eye of the beholder
What you see is, only what they show ya
We're tryin’ to get by, you're only tryin' to get over
That's why your lady cryin' on my shoulder, like
This n***a trippin' like Jack and Mr. ?Roper?
Chameleon ass n***as change color like Sammy Sosa
Gettin' burned by the sun when we fly a little closеr
You're drivin’ with a chauffeur while wе dyin’ for the culture
The media, picking at the flesh like a vulture
Disrespectful like "fuck your couch" feet on the sofa
As tourists bring in gentrification like interlopers
The pro Blackness provoker
They mad cause I be makin' white supremacy my focus
?Stomp a mudhole and a nazi from identity he wrote?
It’s a beautiful thing like Coka Nostra
My look is focused like the ?sider? on a wanted poster
God's soldier, Bars colder than Mars rover
Me and Diamond puffin' a Shrek and I don't mean a large ogre
Word to God, I started out as a ?tired star forward?
You should have paid attention to the stories my scars told ya
I been nice, for shoes puttin’ pennies in your loafers
The style watered down, like mixin' Henny with the soda
And don't nobody do it doper
Me and Diamond keep it realer than we supposed ta
Hook

Verse 2
Every verse is like a prayer son
The game is full of shooters, they used to shoot you a fair one
Just for starein' like a care bear
We faithful, but the space that we occupyin' is rare air
We been the favorite of you favorites
But they underestimatin' like Goliath did to David
The manifesto or the mission statement
Written by the saviors of the culture cause I'm vision greater
We pro Justice and we pro Black
We pro knowledge and we pro Facts
No cap, we get it goin' like a slow clap
While most rap cats is terrified of the blow back
This is not a throwback, this the future though
Stupido, rappers be goofy as Marco Rubio
The Studios is temples, so what they doin' is blasphemous
Nas said it was dead, but we brought it back like it's Lazarus
The catalyst for change, We responded to the climate
Cause the weather's never the same, we blessed whenever it rain
Her name is very germane, standin' over buried remains
Profanity's disclaimed cause we livin' very profane
Don't be normal be exceptional, cause the average ain't suitin' you
Pursue the unusual, and do what is beautiful
Stay truest to your principles, stick to em' like it's superglue
That's the blueprint to make it harder for the devil to try usin' you
N***a's is abusin' you
