Oh, sometimes, sometimes, it get real dangerous, y'all

It get real dangerous, y'all

Havin' one love

Prisoners of Azkaban, thinkin' of a master plan

Images of grandeur by Jamel Shabazz, Dapper Dan

Clap your hands whether you in Paterson or Pakistan

Richard Wright, black boy that grew into a blacker man

Early African or European, which was more supreme

The visions vary, this s**t get scary, inform your team

My dignitary consigliere is more a Deen

My skin tone is aubergine, I'm a war machine

A sinner who's casted all the stones he can manage

But with a home team advantage, most people don't see the damage

Guess I'm gon' need a bandage if we plan to be companions

Drum solos from the hammers be mimicking speaking Spanish

They vanish like Atlantis, come to find out they've been banished

Performing for the cameras and abandoning their manners

For lies that intertwine like a violet vine

I threw the rhyme book straight into the fire this time

I'm thinking

Oh, sometimes, sometimes, it gets real dangerous, y'all

It gets real dangerous, y'all

Havin' one love
