Ra's Al Ghul - Soul Khan

Mentally I’m an assembly line

You’ll never see me fall like donny in ‘79

Because i’m sharper than the bars of ebony try

Not to patronize me unless you mean the medici kind

If you ain’t get the point of that, son, that was the point of that

I wanna challenge y’all, I thought that was the point of rap

You get anointed at the point they put your soil back

Who really got the power?

the pound or the one it’s pointed at?

But chill, too many moms had their youths

Come brought back reduced to their dogtag and boots

And even men who walk with a god’s attributes

Can get dragged down to earth with a contract dispute

There are plenty of followers these days, we’re lacking leaders

The realest shit you gonna hear don’t ever pack arenas

I got a craft to teach ya like i’m played by Pat Morita

Here to break the crooked fingers of the evil hands that feed us

Hook:

We might have been in the same classroom

But I could barely stay awake past noon

They used to tell me I should change my tune

I’mma keep coming back like I’m ra’s al ghul

Strike me down and i’mma still come back

Strike me down, strike me down

Strike me down and i’mma still come back

Strike me down, strike me down

Soul Khan:

Now, the words from my jaw are like a circular saw

They cut deeper than my features to my personal flaws

This is for the fellas with their babymamas learning lamaze

Looking for justice like augustus in his journal in oz

I stand out on my street in my jeans and a old beater

And wonder if we gon' get our own hiroshima

Even when i’m lit as the tip of a cohiba

I don’t get to sniffing or kick it with lolitas

I’m too grownmannish

Raised out in cali but they’re asking how he don’t know spanish

I’m chopin when I leave the stage, they’re gonna throw a rose at it

And my crew’s someall stars like a sky with no planets

If you remember what I said about the dirt around you

Then you should be so honored if I say a word about you

They tell me, soul, lighten up and get the nerd up out you

I tell ‘em you maybe you should fucking face the world around you

Hook:

We might have been in the same classroom

But I could barely stay awake past noon

They used to tell me I should change my tune

I’mma keep coming back like I’m ra’s al ghul

Strike me down and i’mma still come back

Strike me down, strike me down

Strike me down and i’mma still come back

Strike me down, strike me down
