Lyrics Black Savage - Royce Da 5'9" feat. Sy Ari Da Kid, White Gold, CyHi The Prynce & T.I.

I don't know what this world is coming to

Yeah, I ain't ya average rapper residing in Calabasas
Mashin' the Aston through Malagasy in Madagascar
I don't believe in your white Jesus and last suppers
I place value on brothers who never had justice
I am the black savage, Ali and Foreman in Zaire fightin' for black magic
Rifles and flack jackets, momma was suicidal, poppa had bad habits
Product of true survival, rocker like Black Sabbath
Hoppin' up out the Chevy, Pac, Biggie, Machiavelli
OG like Nas or Reggie, culture like Ox in Belly
Vulgar like Akinyele, focus like Dr. Sebi
We did it your way but now the culture is boppin' to our Sinatra medley

I'm limitless energy, they gimmicks and imagery
Kendrick, Cole and the Kennedys, lyrical Holy Trinity
General of the city, they into promoting silly beef
Keepin' it Willy D, Weezy on the "A Milli" beat
Dream Chaser facin' the enemy like my nigga Meek
Tyler Perry writing my winning speech like it's Emmy week
Heart of gold, never sold my soul, Glock weighs a ton
Hov tellin' Lori Harvey no at Roc Nation Brunch

One life to live just don't settle, one life I'ma live forever
Stand for something, fall for nothing, no
Rest in Peace to the dead, that's on my soul
You only die once and then you gone
Who thought we'd be fighting all along?
Who don't know the rights from the wrong
Truth comes to the light behind it all

How much more do you want?
You wanna send us back to where we came from
'Cause we just savages
Well here's my ass to kiss, yeah yeah
I'm made of gold my nigga
I go back home, I'm a goldmine nigga
We taking all the land back they stole my nigga
'Cause what you reap now is what you sow my nigga
Where your soul my nigga? Goddamn

One life to live just don't settle, one life I'ma live forever
Stand for something, fall for nothing, no
Rest in Peace to the dead, that's on my soul
You only die once and then you gone
Who thought we'd be fighting all along?
Who don't know the rights from the wrong
Truth comes to the light behind it all (Ha)

If I ruled the world
I would go return all the gold that was stole
Reupholster the nose on the sphinx it's a world war huh
They tryin' to take soul outta soul
Niggas say I sold out I never sold out a show
Even though people drove out in droves
Plus a whole lotta hoes I suppose
On the road to success, you gotta pay the toll I was told

I don't hang with pawns, I'm Genghis Khan
Slang with a gang of cons that came with guns
Who speak the language from the ancient ones
Dangerous huh, we shinin' nigga, shame the sun
Do I move D or stay in Saint Laurent?
'Cause y'all fashion week and this ain't Milan
Collusive to your once Ponce De Leon
Make sure it's peppercorn sauce on my filet mignon, my nigga

One life to live just don't settle, one life I'ma live forever
Stand for something, fall for nothing no
Rest in Peace to the dead, that's on my soul
You only die once and then you gone
Who thought we'd be fighting all along?
Who don't know the rights from the wrong
Truth comes to the light behind it all

My first reaction, raise my hands up along with my antenna
Sinner 'cause we born sinners, killas 'cause we want dinner
Try to warn nigga, better keep on growin'
Try to stay away from foreign nigga
Better recognize when the devil show his horns
He enjoying his whores like Donald Goines
There's a difference between yours and Tomeka and Lauren
Young Warren Buffet in his prime, you ain't even know it
How she supposed to get thick you just be feedin' her corn?

With your corny ass get robbed while she fuckin' on your horny-ass
Go to jail tell it all before you ask for your attorney-ass
Nigga, well you could never be me
Knew who I was before I got out the trap to sell a CD
I been shoulder to shoulder with gangsta facin' LAPD
Felony after felony, still they be yelling me free
Now my philosophy is, "No possession, no apostrophe"
'Cause ain't no use in being in prison, you don't gotta be
Ironically we dodging crazy crackers with hammers
Just how they used to dodge nigga with braids and bandana
Man it been more mass killin' than it's days in the year
Wonder if fighting for it worth as much as leaving it here, I'm sayin'

One life to live just don't settle, one life I'ma live forever
Stand for something, fall for nothing no
Rest in Peace to the dead, that's on my soul
You only die once and then you gone
Who thought we'd be fighting all along
Who don't know the rights from the wrong
Truth comes to the light behind it all

Brothers and sisters
I don't know what this world is coming to
Truth comes to the light behind it all
