Visions of Martin Luther staring at me

Malcolm X put a hex on my future someone catch me

I'm falling victim to a revolutionary song

The Serengeti's clone

Back to put you backstabbers back on your spinal bone

You slipped your disc when I slid you my disc

You wanted to diss but jumped on my dick

Grown men never should bite their tongue

Unless you eating p**sy that smell like it's a stale plum

I got my finger on the motherf**king pistol

Aiming it at a pig Charlotte's Web is gonna miss you

My issue isn't televised and you ain't gotta tell the wise

How to stay on beat because our life's an instrumental

This is physical and mental I won't sugar-coat it

You'd die from diabetes if these other *s wrote it

And everything on TV just a figment of imagination

I don't want no plastic nation (dread) that like a Haitian

While you motherf**kers waiting I be off the slave ship

Building pyramids writing my own hieroglyphs

Chorus:

Just call the sh*t HiiiPoWeR

Ni**a nothing less than HiiiPoWeR

Five-star dishes food for thought b**ches

I mean the sh*t is Huey Newton going stupid

You can't resist his HiiiPoWeR

Throw your hands up for HiiiPoWeR

Kendrick Lamar:

Visions of Martin Luther staring at me

If I see it how he seen it that would make my parents happy

Sorry mama I can't turn the other cheek

They wanna knock me off the edge like a f**king widow's peak uhh

And she always told me pray for the weak uhh

Them demons got me I ain't prayed in some weeks uhh

Dear Lord come save me the Devil's working hard

He probably clocking double shifts on all of his jobs

Frightening so f**king frightening

Enough to drive a man insane I need a license

To kill I'm standing on a field full of land mines

Doing the moonwalk hoping I blow up in time

Cause 2012 might not be a f**king legend

Trying to be a f**king legend the man of mankind

Who said a black man in the Illuminati

Last time I checked that was the biggest racist party

So get up off that slave ship

Build your own pyramids write your own hieroglyphs

Chorus:

Just call the sh*t HiiiPoWeR

Ni**a nothing less than HiiiPoWeR

Five-star dishes food for thought b**ches

I mean the sh*t is Bobby Seale making meals

You can't resist his HiiiPoWeR

Throw your hands up for HiiiPoWeR

Alori Joh (Kendrick Lamar):

Every day we fight the system

Just to make our way we been down for too long

But that's alright we was built to be strong

Cause it's our life na-na-nah

Every day we fight the system

We fight the system

We fight the system

(Never liked the system)

We been down for too long

But that's alright na-na-nah

Kendrick Lamar:

Who said a black man in Illuminati

Last time I checked that was the biggest racist party

Last time I checked we was racing with Marcus Garvey

On the freeway to Africa till I wreck my Audi

And I want everybody to view my autopsy

So you can see exactly where the government had shot me

No conspiracy my fate is inevitable

They play musical chairs once I'm on that pedestal

Frightening so f**king frightening

Enough to drive a man insane a woman insane

The reason Lauryn Hill don't sing or Kurt Cobain

Loaded that clip and then said "Bang " the drama it bring

Is crazy product of the late 80s

Trying to stay above water that's why we shun the Navy

Pull your guns and play me let's set it off

Cause a riot throw a Molotov

Somebody told me them pirates had got lost

Cause we been off them slave ships

Got our own pyramids write our own hieroglyphs

Chorus:

Just call the sh*t HiiiPoWeR

Yeah nothing less than HiiiPoWeR

Five-star dishes food for thought b**ches

I mean the sh*t is Fred Hampton on your campus

You can't resist his HiiiPoWeR

Throw your hands up for HiiiPoWeR

Thug life
