    [Intro]
    You know, yeah
    Always wanted to have super powers
    You know, uh

    [Chorus]
    This for my people, tryna stay alive and just stay peaceful
    So hard to survive a world so lethal
    Who will take a stand and be our hero, of my people, yeah?
    This for my people
    Tryna stay alive and just stay peaceful
    So hard to survive a world so lethal
    Who will take a stand and be our hero?

    [Verse 1]
    Uh, now all heroes don't wear capes
    And all villains don't get away
    But all limits eventually fade
    I don't wanna be good, *****, I'm tryna be great
    It's hard when your back's against the wall
    And if you got it all to keep your feet up on the floor
    That's why I thank the Lord when I wake up in the morn'
    'Cause to inform the world the very reason I was born
    You can see the power when the mic is in my palm
    When I storm across the room, hit the stage and perform
    Word is bond, don't be alarmed
    Don't let me have to sound the horn, and drop a bomb
    Wanna get my mom a crib, with a lawn
    Somethin' that my future kids, can run up on
    That's why I always do my best to carry on
    Life is like game of chess, don't be a pawn, my *****

    [Chorus]
    This for my people, tryna stay alive and just stay peaceful
    So hard to survive a world so lethal
    Who will take a stand and be our hero, of my people, yeah?
    This for my people
    Tryna stay alive and just stay peaceful
    So hard to survive a world so lethal
    Who will take a stand and be our hero?

    [Verse 2]
    Look up in the sky, it's a bird, it's a plane
    No, it's the young black god livin' out his dreams
    What you mean? I been up on an ultralight beam
    They don't wanna see you fly, they just gonna shoot your wings
    Everything ain't what it seem
    Wishin' all these dirty cops, would come clean
    Still swervin' on these city blocks, for one thing
    My man just copped a 30 shot, protect the team, know what I mean?
    Music is a form of expression
    I'ma use mine just to teach you a lesson
    Rule one: this microphone's a weapon
    I'm shootin' out the actions manifested and my passion
    Never restin', I'm surpassin' the expectancy of life in my direction
    Man the section 8 depressin'
    Hard to be progressin' through recession and oppression
    Not to mention that they had us cell blocked ever since an adolescent

    [Chorus]
    This for my people, tryna stay alive and just stay peaceful
    So hard to survive a world so lethal
    Who will take a stand and be our hero, of my people, yeah?
    This for my people
    Tryna stay alive and just stay peaceful
    So hard to survive a world so lethal
    Who will take a stand and be our hero?

    [Outro]
    Oh, mm
    Oh, mm
