Текст песни Layers (Remix) - Royce da 5'9"

I was telling my brother how you rappers are the new leaders.
You're the real leaders of the people.
The rapper doesn't think he's a leader,
But he's got followers all over the world.
The biggest preachers don't have as many followers as one rapper
I represent war, pain, destroyed fame, contort cane
Chess playing rather than board games
Savages saddling up, grabbing the horse range
Dragging emcees traveling eating like Bourdain
The congregation asking me how I be preaching so accurately
I answer it's actually easy, I'm ordained
The name is Luther Campbell, you can call me Luke though
Standing for what I'm saying like Farrakhan on Donahue's show
Now they trying to find a loop hole
The silence my words, the knowledge I speak
Is a reflection of the violence I see
Now the perception's your daughters and nephews idolize me
Now the objective is call me highly
Aggressive instead of just successful
Cause my rhetoric highly suggestive
Probably connecting cause it's honest, refreshing
Only way I'm trying express it
Down to die tonight
Grabbing his gun and shit like a young Malcolm
That'll get me capital punishment like the Pun album
So is the question now how can we get you to rap where intelligence
Is coming through the lyrics with a beat that begins to open the
Minds of people. Our people want better.
And they'll do better if they're shown better
