Lyrics from Live Performance [Part I] [Intro: The Last Poets] Radar, sonar, laser beams Jets, tanks, submarines Megathons, H-bombs, napalm, ga— [Verse 1] I got the sh*t you would light with a lighter fu*k a lighter, I could light on the stove Dark at night, I'll drop a log on the fire Wander in the woods out in the cold I got the sh*t you could play for your mama I got the sh*t you could play for the hoes I got the sh*t you could sell to the trappers In Decatur with the 'K and the Colt I know some rappers that—how I'ma say this? I know some rappers that pay but broke Lotta money but you played your soul You played yourself, you played the role I know some ni**as from down the street Some of my ni**as been down the road Lost a ni**a that was down with me You know what they say, it rains, it pours [Bridge] Woah, woah, woah, uh It rains, it pours Yeah, okay, okay, chill, woah It rains, it pours Uh, look, okay It rains, it pours [Verse 2] They got the sh*t they could pull out I know it could blow out a back, yeah They got the [cure to the vaxx?] Facts, you know where it's at They put the money, the crack in a sack They got the axis, they got the Atlas, they got the maps I got a real real real bad b*tch I just told her to come to the back (Oh man) They got the people in office Them crackers that had us in chains They make the laws, they goin' hard Dang, they just started a gang How you gon' win in a losable game? Make a change, man, ni**as say the same thing Every day, complain and the sun shine And the cloud rain, but won't lift a finger In the danger, ni**as been endangered Been indentured, now my ni**as got business ventures With my '9, I'm like ten Avengers Snap a finger, I could end adventures Rapper?
