icarus - pele rap's revolutionary lyrics
[chorus: pele rr]
napoleonic in my thoughts
a semi-auto in my drawers
cautionary call
you wanna problem i’ma draw
i’m probably with a broad
that leonardo’d wanna drawl
years in the south
don’t be alarmed you hear a drawl
from outside philly
pops’ plaque in city hall
years in the game
but me and fame been apart
estranged from my dreams
spent days on the march
down with the regime
that’s what i say ‘fore i spark
[verse 1: pele rr]
a rapper or a renegade
tell me which you would be
growin’ up, knowin’ if your skin is black its you or me
hip hop buffoonery
ya’ll n-gg-s all sound the same
that ain’t what influenced me
the future me has tutored me in fluency
i’m soon to be a newer me, would you agree?
so root for me or rue for me
but you can see i’m groomin’ me for who i knew i’d truly be
no matter what they do to me
the proof will be impunity for anyone who shoot at me
so this is like a eulogy, with scrutiny, accusin’ me of who they think i used to be
‘cuz usually with lunacy it’s you and me, brutally, fightin’ over jewelry
but crucially the rumor be that you would be in tune wit me if you was thinkin’ unity
but who are we to jubilee foolishly?
do you see, they’d rather have a shootin’ spree?
excuse they need to concede troops should be immutably unleashed in our communities
pursuin’ me ruthlessly and to degree it grew on me
revolution suited me
conclusively, it’s mutiny seducin me
i choose to be the rebel wit the euphony
opportunity eluded me & proved to me my future’d be as lame as if they neutered me
inducin’ me to truancy for two or three days before my pops got news of me
no sooner he was schoolin’ me on who i’d be, presumably, with regards to police
stupid me, i used to be immune to good sense
thank god it didn’t ruin me
[pre-chorus: pele rr]
scab, scar, tissue stronger
jab, spar, pivot conquer
rap star, spit dat mantra
blacks are, getting stronger
[chorus: pele rr]
napoleonic in my thoughts
a semi-auto in my drawers
cautionary call
you wanna problem i’ma draw
i’m probably with a broad
that leonardo’d wanna drawl
years in the south
don’t be alarmed you hear a drawl
from outside philly
pops’ plaque in city hall
years in the game
but me and fame been apart
estranged from my dreams
spent days on the march
down with the regime
that’s what i say ‘fore i spark
[verse 2: pele rr]
obscene how we scream in the streets, “hands up don’t shoot”, no ambiguity
mob scene in the streets, black body laid out, d-mn they done put two in me
and if they take my body, know my brotha gon’ rise up like there was two of me
‘cuz they can k!ll a man, but a man with a dream lives on in perpetuity
and when my pops seen the diplomas and degrees i received, he saluted me
i received many ‘dreams from my father’ like obama, but none of them annuities
we must achieve self esteem by any means, i believe education rooted me
in the belief to defeat the extreme police regime that abuses me
‘cuz by the time i was 17 they’d done everything they could do to me
violent crimes, cops spilt blood in the streets somethin’ like it used to be
survive the times, we done had trump on the scene a month, already you can see
the entire time we gon’ have to run to the streets marchin’ against cruelty
and try to find a leader, someone who could be somethin’ of a human being
signs of decline when government policies lookin’ like a noose to me
this pride of mine, rap wit me black hoody stand with the community
for the final time
i believe, i believe, i believe in you and me
[pre-chorus: pele rr]
scab, scar, tissue stronger
jab, spar, pivot conquer
rap star, spit dat mantra
blacks are, getting stronger
[chorus: pele rr]

from outside philly
pops’ plaque in city hall
years in the game
but me and fame been apart
estranged from my dreams
spent days on the march
down with the regime
that’s what i say ‘fore i spark
