I Will

[Verse 1]
I’m in a place where the devil show me nothing but love
It’s hell on earth. For what it’s worth, the angels hover above
And just watch corrupt cops bust a couple of slugs
And though they bust shots, God’s hands covered in blood
‘Cause he don’t care. And the boys in blue is quick to remind you
Leave the pigs’ coats with bullets dipped in the swine flu
I’ve been through my grind, dude
Past the Armageddon, reborn as a living legend when the end of times through
I made it through the Black Plague, made it through the crack phase
Made it passé, about ta take ‘em through the last days
Half-crazed, yeah my look intimidation
They scared, they stay clear of my crooked generation
They made me Shakespeare of this Book of Revelation
The pages are eight years of the Bush Administration
I’m hooked to a ventilation machine, but the seeds need me
So I cut through the wire so they can breathe easy

[Chorus]
I will…
Never ever stop, never falter
I’mma be on top like the Rock of Gibraltar
I will…
Never ever lie, never steer you wrong
You can tell the truth any time that you hear this song
I will…
‘Cause I’mma be here, I solemnly swear
Rolling through the jungle ‘til I’m pierce with them hollow tips
I will…
But they ain’t never gonna tell you what they feel
If they ain’t gonna tell you what’s real, well, I will

[Verse 2]
CF is the truth, but y’all ain’t used to the honest view
You used to the lies that they use to astonish you
The proof in the eyes—I tell you who shot Amadou
Same dudes that despise Túpac Amaru
Immune to Bubonic flu, see through the genocide
Mid-Atlantic Slave Trade, free market enterprise
Fuck Montezuma, I’m a leader, you gon’ recognize
The stage is Machu Picchu, a cacique of the Incan tribe
I made it through Katrina, tsunamis of Indonesia
Babylon and the Caesar—bombs are Hiroshima
Carry on procedure regardless of the outcome
You ain’t dedicated like CF the devout one
Never outdone, though it’s life after death
No wings, I spring to the skies and hijack the jet
Now I fly past the rest. So when they crash and burn
I learn fast and clear my path so I don’t sidetrack my steps

[Chorus]
I will…
Never ever stop, never falter
I’mma be on top like the Rock of Gibraltar
I will…
Never ever lie, never steer you wrong
You can tell the truth any time that you hear this song
I will…
‘Cause I’mma be here, I solemnly swear
Rolling through the jungle ‘til I’m pierce with them hollow tips
I will…
But they ain’t never gonna tell you what they feel
If they ain’t gonna tell you what’s real, well, I will
