[Intro: The Last Poets] Radar, sonar, laser beams Jets, tanks, submarines Megathons, H-bombs, napalm, ga—
[Verse 1] I got the shit you would light with a lighter Fuck 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 shit you could play for your mama I got the shit you could play for the hoes I got the shit 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 who paid but broke Lotta money but you played your soul You played yourself, you played the role I know some niggas from down the street Some of my niggas been down the road Lost a nigga that was down with me You know what they say, it rains, it pours
[Chorus] It rains, it pours (Ooh, we have a penalty flag thrown at the thirty yard line) (Personal foul, unsportsman-like conduct, number six on the defense, fifty-) It rains, it pours It rains, it pours
[Verse 2] They got the shit they could pull out I know it could blow out a back, yeah They got the cure to the vax' 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 bitch 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 even started a gang How you gon' win in a losable game? Make a change, man, niggas say the same thing Every day, complain and the sun shine And the cloud rain, but won't lift a finger In the danger, niggas been endangered Been indentured, now my niggas got business ventures With my .9, I'm like ten Avengers Snap a finger, I could end adventures Rapper? Singer? No, killer, nigga You a cop or you a nigga killer, woah
[Outro] It rains, it pours It rains, it pours (Ooh, we have a penalty flag thrown at the thirty-yard line) (Personal foul, unsportsman-like conduct) It rains, it pours (Number 6 on the defense) It rains, it pours
[Part II]
[Intro] Man, they won't understand, man (Oh, shit) And, man, they won't understand, man (Fucked up) And, man, they won't understand (Uh) I live in harmony and peace And the sun will once again rise up in the East (See)
[Verse] Somebody told me when I was small That the pride cometh right before the fall God son died for us all So for mine, I'm running through a wall Lost a battle, it's still a war I'ma steal the cattle, then burn the farm We could travel but the journey long I prefer we get a lil' murder on Drop the top on your convertible How we feelin' should concern you We been speakin' but ain't never been heard So now we screamin' at you word-for-word Everything a nigga learned gotta burn My lil' nigga in a hearse, I was hurt Fuck a rap and fuck a verse, I could blur it Tryna see how many urns I could earn Are you entertained or are you concerned? I'd be afraid, I'd be in church I'd say a pray, I pray I say, I say I shade They play like God, no play-by-play We take our charge, we take our place It'll take our hearts, it'll take our faith But we need the majority to make shit shake I'ma get me a quarter, I'ma get in a car And I'ma get on a call and go state-by-state And I'm picking the target then I'm picking them off You better be Beyoncé if you say my name Orange ambient sunlight and daylight savings Might save a nigga's life It ain't never too bright to broad day a nigga Night time vampires and they'll slay a nigga It's not like landslide so you can take their slide I'm a canine straight in the pack lookin' for Jiddy, he's takin' it back Crackin' a whip, whippin' the crack Just like them crackers that did to the blacks Just like they thought I was finished attacking A beast awoken, I peel at the crackin' They inferior and fear when I'm rappin' But I ain't rappin, this is spiritual Shed a tear so it'll curate when miracles happen, huh Mirror, mirror, why the fuck is you laughing? Dear, dear, let me volunteer 'cause I'm not in fear I'ma jump in the ashes (Ooh) Oh shit, "It's getting weird" Nah, shit is weird, what the hell is heaven on this hemisphere? If them bitches sell it, I'ma end it here If we come together we can send a message But I know they never gonna land it here So I got the method, one, do you better Do you want better? Bitch, you won't do it, let's bet I will Collect my stones, ho, collect my gems Protect my stronghold, respect my shield Until I'm long gone but while I'm here I can snap my fingers, they'll disappear (Boom)
