Big Brother the beast
Am
G
Feel it all in the air it's too
Explosive with the free,
G
Am
got a heavy one I wrote up my sleeve
G
Am
C
I could post up or go for the three
Am
Versatile with it I'm
grinding until I get it
Mindless of the defined
limits or consequences
G
I defy critics I ain't scientific
Verse 3
G
I find my intrinsic vibe and
G
Vocals no nothing other
than soul touching
Am
G
So if they land in yours
it's just a home- coming
Am
If they don't go there
they might perish
G
Am
G
Land on deaf ears but die
Am
unembarassed
You don't need to hear my
Am
You hear the plane that I'm on
Your whole face change
when I'm on

Your ears might help you see Fuck

Until you open up your eyes

Verse 6
Am
I never asked my brothers
G
to put that crown on me
Am
Now they want to frown on
me, look down on me
Pardon me I don't think
I'm hurting anybody
Just because I took shahadah but
C
I'm cursing at the party
Am
Ain't showing I'm holy just
Am
Ya'll just pretend to be
whatever your role be
Don't get me wrong pre
Verse 7
Am
But maybe that's why the masses
Am
G
Can't sit and nit pick but
miss the big shit
Am
Expect us not to see the contradictions
G
Want us to listen and join your religion
Am
I ain't got a pot to piss in
who ya'll kidding
G
I believe in the Qu'ran and all
that's within it
The concepts and all of the proph
Am
ets that are mentioned
G
But I talk directly to God
so if I'm sinning
Am
Ya'll ain't got nothing to do with me repenting

Verse 8
(Chorus x2)
(Verse 3:)
If I'm an open book this is how
I'm supposed to look
I got to show it all and don't be shook
So they ask me if I'm black or white,
G
I'm neither
Am
Race is a made up thing
I don't believe in it
My genes tie me to those
Am
Made a living killing the ones
that inspired me
I ain't just talking about singing and dancing
Verse 9
Am
I was
taught life and manhood
by black men
G
So I'm a product of that understanding
Am
G
And a small part of me
Am
feels like I am them
Does that make me a liar maybe
G
Am
But I don't want the white folks that praise
me to think they can claim me
'Cause you didn't make me
You don't appreciate what I know to be
great yet you relate to me
And that frustrates me and what can I say
Verse 10
Am
I know that I benefit
from something I hate
But make no mistake our connection
Am
It's never too late to clear
off the slate
You follow my tape then you
Am
If something comes up then it must
G
Am
come out
