Know Thyself - Intellectual

Yah...

Take 6...

Gotta Know Thyself...

Yah...

Verse [Kem'Yah]:

Young and wild, grew up with the set

Never had the lust for bricks

But always had it for the tech

In My mind I'm Malcolm X

All I'm thinking is protect

Robbery after robbery

Had the flag on the left

Told niggas they needed vests

So I started selling vests

Invested in Self

Cause I'm crucial with the pen

Usually that's the best way to reach niggas in the pen

And free My crodie Mag and all the real niggas in the bin

We gonna need them in the end

Facing a mob of pigs and crooked politicians

When you shoot you can't be missing

Coded language cause they listen

But you know how the story goes

Of course We gonna win again

Still dodging every charge they send

Cause I don't got no new friends

Prove to be a nuisance

My wife, She's My Goddess though, so She's been My amusement

Bending time and space cause power I speak it fluent

Had to know Myself just to know what I was doing

Yah...Yah...

Hook [Kem'Yah]:

Fuck every single thing they saying

Make sure you know your role

And stay the fuck up in your lane

Cause they got monsters in the game

But that ain't nothing to a Queen

Cause it's nothing to a King

Know Thyself

That's all I'm saying nigga

Verse [Kem'Yah]:

Fuck how you feel

I came a long way

From those days in the hallways

Harding park on a good day

But we didn't have much good days

So I still count on Piff to have a spliff lit in the staircase

As if that shit is safe now

Gotta meds with a K now

Niggas ain't the same now

Niggas lost their way

But you know they'll never admit it

Run a nigga down

But they running from the pigs

Niggas ain't no gangstas

All you niggas bitch

The KKK has never been hit

By a blood or crip

So I'm tryna change the script

1 Percent will get the shit

You can't envision the movie

We gotta cut your scene

Not every actor makes it to the screen

I done seen some shit you can't believe

We don't do make believe

We do everything to leave

Still end up victim to these streets

Cause We don't know who We be

I loved everyone but Me

I did it all for the life, but what the fuck I do for Me? Nigga Yah

Hook [Kem'Yah]:

Fuck every single thing they saying

Make sure you know your role

And stay the fuck up in your lane

Cause they got monsters in the game

But that ain't nothing to a Queen

Cause it's nothing to a King

Know Thyself

That's all I'm saying nigga

Outro [Kem'Yah]:

Yah

Know Thyself

That's all I'm saying nigga

Know Thyself that's all I'm saying

Still got my glizzy on me

Fuck these crakkkers and the police nigga Yah

Still got my glizzy on me

Muthafuck the law and the fucking police

Know Thyself that's all I'm saying

Know thyself that's all I'm saying

Still got my glizzy on me

Fuck these crakkkers and the police

Still got my glizzy on me

Muthafuck the law and the fucking police
