[Sample]

"They did not have the power to stop Louis Farrakhan
|
They were trying to touch on and thieve envy within the leadership
|
But as a general and a man that rose through the ranks through discipline
|
His presence inspired those men with the discipline he imposed on his own life
|
Louis Farrakhan"

|
No revolutionary gets old or so I'm told
|
Your left full of bullet holes when you tell the people go free
|
Oh, it's a matter of days before they try to take me
|
I heard gun shots rang; his bullet's got my name
|
I ain't see 'em take aim, I dreamt this day came
|
'Cause I stood in the face of damnation
|
Satan spat at 'em, flat out disgraced 'em
|
He want my blood, why me?
|
Why not the fake who deserve death man?
|
Fuck it, I'll take one
|
'Cause stop me but can't stop a whole nation of millions who feel you deceived them
|
They believe in reparation makes it even
|
So I'm deadly now because of one reason, they listening
|
In Budapest, Japan, China, and Switzerland
|
We getting it in son, another bullet pass by, miss me
|
Wondering who plotting to get me?
|
Alphabet boys still plotting against me
|
To hush me and stuff me in the pockets of history
|
You won't remember why they came to clip me
|
When time go by you'll soon forget me
|
They say he was the king of bling, jewels, and Bentley's
|
Then I use one of my lines just to prove I'm guilty
|
Don't let' em kill me...

|
Some revolutionaries do live long
|
Am I one of them? Guess we'll know in due time
|
Everybody has rights, can I use mine?
|
Can I rock shine? Can I have a girl that's too fine?
|
Got a swell life, tell me will I lose mine?
|
Every time I turn around somebody new dying
|
Let's start living, alecart, Escargo, Escobar invest my millions
|
Mansion for the wife the rest for the children
|
Knowing that they coming anytime
|
But until then I'ma in lost till they shoot me
|
Million dollar stones in my camouflaged Gucci
|
Giving you this crack like Pookie
|
To question the system, be the resistance
|
No matter what color you are everybody niggas
|
Or you can stand by or watch or you can march on with us
|
|
[Chorus - Nas 2x]
|
Some revolutionaries get old although I'm told
|
You'll get a left full of bullet holes when you tell the people go free
|
Oh, it's a matter of days before they try to take me
