To settle for less, the short change So we keep our heads with us, as there's more to gain And with, war is pain, so we roll the dice It's all for the love, but some pay the ultimate price (check it out y'all) Chorus: [Group of singers] Yo, they go off when they go on On and on, on and on (Evidence: Marathon) Pace yourself so you can face yourself Run hard, you really only race yourself Yo, they go off when they go on On and on, on and on (Evidence: Marathon) But we don't run from shit, we run to it Might run over your shit or run through it [Rakaa] I crack my own tooth, man, rap's a tool Just to spit, crowns will leave your head wrapped with jewels Respect that, even if you don't respect that Label politics are just a minor setback As long as we're willing and the heart is still in it In the marathon, the artists will win it Even though they want me to bite my tongue Where I'm comin' from it's like "Fuck that, I'll still win it" The long run separates the weak and strong one Never underestimate how deep the songs run [Rakaa and Group of singers] Pace yourself so you can face yourself Run hard, you really only race yourself, yo [Rakaa] Clap your hands, your hands you clap Expansion Team rap then expand the map With endurance, intellect, cardiovascular Stamina, Rakaa's a party flow master like this! Chorus [Rakaa] I'm like Axel when they kill Mike for the bearer bonds (???) Driven to fight, livin' in the marathon Some can't carry on, they're tired or feel ill But in the end, real soldiers are still will Sometimes, it's just spectators and gladiators Same party, next year, haters congratulate us To Buddy Princess and Jalen, congratulations This year, there's less funerals than graduations [Evidence] Yo, pace myself, 'cause sagas continue Standing ovations, Dilated blows up every venue A new era, placed first, style pursuing The shoe fits? (Wear it), it's based on you and Your off beat DJ Anything he play Sounds like Babu pulled the plug with no delay This homestretch I've saved my last breath (breathing noise) I push full throttle, no rest till nothing's left It's the marathon Chorus Clap your hands (x5) Check it Expansion Team forever and the, Alchemist |

No questions
I pledge resistance to the grass That hides the snakes of America So they watch it, now I walk with caution More careful put more thought to options Is the opposite of progress Congress From the school to the street we're beyond stress But I fight for peace, that's what the problem is War is big biz, ask an economist Speak in volumes callin' anti-war and anti-American synonymous Back in the day I would've gotten black listed just for speakin' up Hoover probably would've screamed Communist I want black and brown unity But cats get out to bring the jail to the community Fightin's nothin' new to me I even corrected what the public school system tried to do to me Here's a spark encoded in rhyme and love for everyone of the devoted in line We call it art, some call it a crime It's the rap Michael Moore, like Bowling for Columbine On drums, Fahrenheit, 9-1-1 Al Queda hit the Apple and the world was stunned The villain trained by the hero for the killing Now you twist $20 bills to see buildings Under heavy surveillance They might call you a traitor if you want something greater Don't get me wrong, America's a great place to live Just listen to the knowledge I give If more than half the budget goes to military spending Less than half goes to whatever it's defending One nation, many gods, individuals with liberties And justice for all who are miserable Voice in Spanish escuscha la verdad en la musica Yeah Babu, Dilated Peoples Neighborhood Watch, worldwide Expansion, Iriscience Evidence, Babu |

You know these days ain't gettin any longer Now, it's do or die Now or never, time to hit the street We on the move Ride out with shit to prove Everywhere we go they like...

<i>[Verse 1]</i>
Yo I grew up in Mid-City near World on Wheels After Reaganomics crack came and more blood spill I gotta tell shorties now I don't pop pills The only ecstacy I fuck with rolls with Jalil No grip, straight line rhymes Like the grand concourse on 149 In LA the riders ridge was Fairfax and Olympic ?? On the block the Ethiopians kick it (salaam) You'll learn Angel City'll test you I move through giving respect where respect's due Ducking these cops who say they serve to protect you And handlin my biz so I ain't tryin to impress you It's mind over matter, crew over money I do strategy, I don't act sporadically I contemplate, cat I move mathematically It's Alchemist with Dilated, that's family <i>[Chorus]</i> Still a couple lessons I can teach How the real fiends cop two each The game is keeping dope in the streets So look the world on wheels Still a couple lessons I can teach How the real heads rock real beats Bangin out the illest rides on the streets Look at the world on wheels <i>[Verse 2]</i> Peace King, peace haki, peace queen I only leave em in pieces if they step in the ring They're fumbling and wondering what weapon to bring I'm like Ice-T, I know my lethal weapon'll swing Stop the presses, block the doors Cops oppress us, watch the wolves But all the friendly fire is worse than oppression Pressure more stressin is poured in dead presidents (Rakaa) Fights for your rights is my pleasure But suckers swing rulers like swords that try to measure While Slick Rick the ruler's at war with INS yo I hope the young fly their best yo Hip-hop desert again, it's like Busy Bee's buzzin again My patience is thin though I ventilate em like I cracked the window and air it out like a Hail Mary to the end zone <i>[Chorus]</i> When I'm all out, I cause panic (peace summits) When I move stealth (it's mysteries and who-done-its) I made mental notes of who's fam and who frontin Mental notes of who ran shit and who runnin It's mind over matter, crew over money I do strategy, I don't act sporadically I contemplate, cat I move mathematically Create to devastate crew, that's family <i>[Chorus]</i> |
