No time to be passive been ready for action influenced by Cassius

Death to you bastards for judging like Mathis sleep in ya casket

Pursuing my passion a fatal attraction I'm losing my balance

Drank in my canvas dreams to live lavish (who) this is my canvas

I paint it so vivid show you a blemish like God is not finished

Perfecting my image, I'm something like Denice My'Key the Menace

I'm back with a vengeance start up the engine, no pussy could alter my vision

I'm overly focused no time to be timid be about yours, handle your business

A minor setback for a major comeback couldn't be Bruce Wayne

Back then heard em say can't be Batman as a black man gotta know yo lane

I was robbing til they caught me momma said either build or destroy gotta know yo fate

Had to choose so I build with my hands and destroy mothafuckas that come in my way

With too much pride it's do or die

Black and proud James Brown giving all I got in 12 rounds

This my pride that shit might drive me insane through the hard times

Shadow my glory and paint the dark side

Make way for the juggernaut

J.J. and one that's a hundred watts

I was raised to be a king in the southern blocks in the S.W.A.T

Where the cops shoot without a second thought

It's a shoot out .. box out

They put a image to deceive.. crop out

In a ring with foes tryna slow my role I got too much pride I never tap out

As a black child I witnessed black outs playing in the backyard

In the black town where the black sounds in the background

Made love seem cool tried, how foolish was I in love with a lie

Brought pain in my life, I brush it I'm fine

Like God gave me style to blessed to be dry

I shoot for the stars it's time to get mine collecting at large determined to shine

Whoa Lord

This Morris Day meets Sweet Jones

You couldn't break my soul it's been dipped in gold

I took a leap of faith just to land in stones

Through my days of pain I rarely lose control

With too much pride it's do or die

Black and proud James Brown giving all I got in 12 rounds

This my pride that shit might drive me insane through the hard times

Shadow my glory and paint the dark side
