[Intro: AZ]

Yeah

This is it right here

This defines me

Turn my mic up

Let's do it, let's do it


[Verse 1: AZ]

Spirit of Marcus Garvey

Farad Muhammad, Medgar Evars and Bob Marley, I'm God-Body

The scripture says Allah's inside me

Show love, I was hugged by the arms of Gandhi

Gave me my strength

You could tell somebody raised me with sense

We all need somethin' to help us through our daily events

Bear with me; the toughest niggas tear quickly

No lie, pops still cry and he near fifty

Freedom or death, I give niggas a reason to sweat

There's no test, verbally it's like I'm seen as the best

Who wanna try me?


[Sample Hook]

Yeahhhhhhh, yeah-e-yeah

I'm back!


[Verse 2: AZ]

Sent to express grace

Separate the weaker niggas is the less weight

Fuck how y'all feel, y'all cowards now fuckin' with real

I return like McGrady got caught with a pill

Let's get it poppin'

I move like a nigga coppin'

I know the stress from the streets when I was diddy-boppin'

Playin' the corners face-to-face with the faces of mourners

It's hard to trace the informers until it's too late

Jake rest on my corners

The focus is back, I play a part in this culture of rap

Bought some whips so I relate on how these vultures attack

Flippin' and runnin', double-park, rippin' up summons

How many niggas hittin' twin sisters and flippin' they cousins?

Call it finesse, the game — give it all I posses

Nothin' changed, I'mma ball to the death


[Sample Hook (El Shaber)]

Yeahhhhhhh (That's right)

Yeah-e-yeah (Show these cats how we do this here, nigga)

I'm back!


[Verse 3: El Shaber]

I'm like a, rose in the desert but how can one grow without rain?

How can one experience happiness without pain?

And how could I fall to the violence of hell and still remain sane?

And how could I still remain on top of my game?

When both the black and the white devils seek the power to rebel

Seek to defy my radiance, I shift gears to another level

I'm focused, but it's like I'm playin a cold hand of spades

I got a lot of hearts, but these fools tryin to cut me and I'm tired of these jokers

Vengeance is mine, I plague the whole planet with locusts

I survived the mayhem, my advantage I've been the brokest

I wasn't drugged and inhaled by all the smokers

Then I became the love absorbed by all the cultures

I can't trust women because my heart was scorned

It's hard to trust yo' comrades, when yo' heart was torn

One-nine-seven-oh the God was born


[Sample Hook]

Yeahhhhhhh, yeah-e-yeah

I'm back!
