[Verse 1]
We [F]got news for [C]ya[F]
[C]We got [F]news [C]for[F][G]
[C]ya[F]
We got news for ya

[Verse 2]
While [F]they devise our demise,
[C]we gro[F]w wise
Upset the set up, the element of surprise
Itz a [G]set [C]up[F]
It's time to up[G]set the [F]set up

[Verse 3]
Though they [C]conspire,
[F]fake us to make us re[G]tire
With the [F]burning de[C]sire,
we [F]make it out of the crossfire
[G]Thoughts [C]are higher,
[F]elevating and focused
While the path is narrow,
for [G]those [F]like us

[Verse 4]
Primo beats [C]provoke us to
[F]meditate like Zen
With the will and the strength,
of a million men
[C]While [F]they introspect, where
nothing is met
It's [C]been that way for [F]a while,
so much has come an[Dm]d then [F]went
But I'm [Dm]confid

[Verse 5]
[C]ent, a [F]few,
are due to redeem
[G]Their respe[F]ctive kingdoms,
with an abundance of cream
So if [C]I were to scheme,
[F]it would be on a real[G]er dream
Like [F]formin' effective teams to filter
[G]the smokescreens

[Verse 6]
You totin' [C]in [F]jeans,
don't even know the true envy
[C]The man I'm pickin' apart,
[F]and plus they both were friends to me
Past trivial [C]pur[F]suits like East
and West coast feud[G]s
Come [F]against me on the mic,
many and most will lose

[Verse 7]
Like most [C]dudes, I love this [F]hip- hop,
and this [G]rap stuff
[C]But I don't lik[F]e the shows,
where the ignorant act up
While [G]some'll [C]be rip[F]pin' it,
they be in the crowd wildin'
Flippin' on kids,
for the chains and medallions

[Verse 8]
Or the kid, [C]they don't [F]like,
from a beef from way back
[C]And dec[F]ide that's the night,
perfect time for payback
[C]It's wack for the group,
[F]plus the others who came
To see a fat ass show,
instead there's bullets aflame
[C]While

[Verse 9]
they devise our de[F]mise,
we grow wise
Upset the set up,
the element of surprise
Itz a set [C]up[F]
It's time to up[G]set the [F]set up

[Verse 10]
Still [F]waters run deep,
this is leagues in depth
Quiet as kept they slept we crept
Society puts the squeeze [C]on
MC's[F]like iron grips of death
From here on in peace and blessings
long cherish your breath

[Verse 11]
Gifted and [C]Rhyme,
you now [F]how we do, stay true
Follow through lay down the law,
'cause it's probable and overdue
All [C]systems over[F]due, my guns know me
I [G]only [F]hold a few my nigga for
only a few [G]hold [F]me

[Verse 12]
Never [C]forget the [F]ones before me,
[G]my momma told me
Sacri[F]fice for the [G]ones behind
me leadin' [F]the seed[G]s
[F]Blind leads, [C]black [F]on black, crime to me
[G]Incli[C]ned to [F]refine my creed,
I eat thinkin' lead

[Verse 13]
Conceive to [C]make the [F]beast bleed,
enhance thoughts
Like tossed trees 'cross
the Earth three- fourths
Let my offspring feed [C]all three,
cor[F]pus delectis cost me
Lost [C]and found [F]on enemy ground,
quoted although

[Verse 14]
They don't know how we [C]get
[F]down at sound speed we breed
No more confined to blind greed
and self destructive deeds
Heed my freedom [C]war cry,
[F]of course I'm N.Y.
Hug my peeps that died,
the loved ones alive
Rein[G]force an

[Verse 15]
[C]d fly [F]high as I lie so shall I
From New I to Cali,
next plateau [C]U.N.I.versal[F]
Unleash the black rain
Show 'em who in control,
electro- magnetic

[Verse 16]
Pull on [C]the [F]hole, ill as toters bang out
'Til we sittin' on swole,
the strongest way to grow
[G]The only [F]way I know,
Underground Railroad on track
No physical or mental chain

[Outro 1]
can shackle that
[F][F]
[F][F][F]
