[Intro: Bobby Seale & Rick Ross]
Do you know what we are gon' do?
We are going to defend ourselves
'Cause Huey P. Newton says that, "Power
Power is the ability to define phenomena and make it act in a desired manner"
Power is the ability to define phenomena and make it act in a desired manner
Power, if we have the ability to define it, the only next thing to do is get organized, get organized
So when a pig walks up to you, or a pig gets to jiving with the people
You be so organized, you be learnin' some tactics, you be learnin' some revolutionary principles
You be having some guns hid out somewhere, you have some proper tactics
That when the pig gets to jiving with you
The pig is wrong, you whip your guns out on him
Blow him away, and then you have the ability
In fact, you have made that pig act in a desired manner
Smokin' a fat spliff in a brand new Benz
No ID on the track, let the story begin, begin
Ha, yeah
[Verse 1: Rick Ross & CeeLo Green]
Lookin' in the mirror, but I don't see much
Still runnin' the streets, so I don't sleep much
Watchin' the snakes so they don't creep up
But the way I'm gettin' this money, niggas can't keep up
You niggas can't keep up
Niggas got beef, but it can't be much
I'm still walkin' through the crowds like I can't be touched
Top back, all black, Gretzky puck
Ice skater lil' later might let me fuck
Damn, she might let me fuck
Last night, I cried tears of joy
What did I do to deserve this? (I don't know)
Vacheron on my wrist a year ago
I didn't even know the bitches exist
Quarter milli' for the motherfucker
No insurance on the motherfucker
Ain't life a bitch?
But you gotta keep her wet
Keys open doors, so I gotta keep a set
Everybody know that I'm a lot of people's threat
Biggie Smalls in the flesh, livin' life after my death
Yesterday, I read my horoscope
Tell me, Lord, will I be poor and broke?
Tell me, Lord, will I be dealin' dope?
I wanna take my mama to the Poconos (Goodbye)
But only Lord knows
[Chorus: CeeLo Green]
To all the loved ones I leave behind
At least they can't see me cry
And I ask, when someone wants to be me, why?
Thought havin' everything would ease my mind
If you could read my mind
My God, I'm scarred, I have tattoo tears of joy
[Verse 2: Rick Ross & CeeLo Green]
Last night, I cried tears of joy (Joy)
What did I do to deserve this? (I don't know)
Young, rich motherfucker, still uneducated
But damn it, a nigga made it (Alright)
Goddamn, a nigga made it (Ah)
Crib bigger than a church, Lord know I'm blessed
Five different lawyers, Lord know I'm stressed
A punch in the face'll get you 300K
Ask Vlad, now he back to makin' minimum wage
Another victim of my criminal ways (Mmm)
I wanna walk in the image of Christ
But that bitch Vivica nice
And I'm still swimmin' in ice
I'm just livin' my life (Life)
I'm just livin' my life (Life)
Lease a Lamborghini for your pussy rate
Life is just a pussy race
Snatch a bitch, take her back to your place
Next morning, I can tell you how the pussy taste
I got expensive taste
[Chorus: CeeLo Green & Rick Ross]
Goodbye to all the loved ones I leave behind
At least they can't see me cry
And I ask, when someone wants to be me, why?
Thought havin' everything would ease my mind
If you could read my mind
My God (Hold up), I'm scarred (Hold up), I have tattoo tears of joy (Yeah)
[Verse 3: Rick Ross & CeeLo Green]
Last night, I cried tears of joy
What did we do to deserve this?
Not to dwell on the the past, but to keep it real
I gotta represent for Emmett Till (Emmett Till)
All the dead souls in the field
Lookin' at my Rollie, it's about that time
White man had a problem with mine
And we supposed to be shy?
The revolution's televised (Alright)
Bobby's still on the rise
[Chorus: CeeLo Green]
Goodbye to all the loved ones I leave behind
At least they can't see me cry
And I ask, when someone wants to be me, why?
Thought havin' everything would ease my mind
If you could read my mind
My God, I'm scarred, I have tattoo tears of joy
