[Sample] "They did not have the power to stop Louis Farrakhan They were trying to touch on and thieve envy within the leadership But as a general and a man that rose through the ranks through discipline His presence inspired those men with the discipline he imposed on his own life Louis Farrakhan" [Nas] No revolutionary gets old or so I'm told Your left full of bullet holes when you tell the people go free Oh, it's a matter of days before they try to take me I heard gun shots rang; his bullet's got my name I ain't see 'em take aim, I dreamt this day came 'Cause I stood in the face of damnation Satan spat at 'em, flat out disgraced 'em He want my blood, why me? Why not the fake who deserve death man? Fuck it, I'll take one 'Cause stop me but can't stop a whole nation of millions who feel you deceived them They believe in reparation makes it even So I'm deadly now because of one reason, they listening In Budapest, Japan, China, and Switzerland We getting it in son, another bullet pass by, miss me Wondering who plotting to get me? Alphabet boys still plotting against me To hush me and stuff me in the pockets of history You won't remember why they came to clip me When time go by you'll soon forget me They say he was the king of bling, jewels, and Bentley's Then I use one of my lines just to prove I'm guilty Don't let' em kill me... [Sample] "They did not have the power to stop Louis Farrakhan." "They did not have the power to stop Louis Farrakhan." "They did not have the power to stop Louis Farrakhan." "They did not have the power to stop Louis Farrakhan." [Nas] Some revolutionaries do live long Am I one of them? Guess we'll know in due time Everybody has rights, can I use mine? Can I rock shine? Can I have a girl that's too fine? Got a swell life, tell me will I lose mine? Every time I turn around somebody new dying Let's start living, alecart, Escargo, Escobar invest my millions Mansion for the wife the rest for the children Knowing that they coming anytime But until then I'ma in lost till they shoot me Million dollar stones in my camouflaged Gucci Giving you this crack like Pookie To question the system, be the resistance No matter what color you are everybody niggas Or you can stand by or watch or you can march on with us [Chorus - Nas 2x] Some revolutionaries get old although I'm told You'll get a left full of bullet holes when you tell the people go free Oh, it's a matter of days before they try to take me
