lyrics

Big T: Follow the leader indeed this world needs ya/ Its only a matter of time before the student is the teacher/ Lavish lies of the kind got me geeked up/ I traveled to the end of that road that left me freaked up/ Plenty times I should've listened to the preachaz/ back then a hard head always looking for the street buzz/ fixated on a world that really never was/ praying to the Lord that I'd never end up like my cuz/ Called it a hero, stuck on every word/ shoulda listened to my gut, it’s the first thing I heard/ and since then it’s been getting on my nerves/ cuz I died in the lies when my vision got blurred/ so I paid the price and some think it’s nice/ go ahead and fool me once but you won't do it twice/ break away I’m invoking my rights/ never again caught off guard like a deer in headlights/ I looked at him man, straight in eye / never understood why the deception and lies/ spread it out man...I’mma let it fly/ 3Stacks told the truth... heroes eventually die...


Chaddy C: wind beneath my wings/ the king of all kings/ he was Billy Idol he could tell me anything/ he knew I would listen/ dreams I’d envision/ women, cars, and clothes was the only way of livin’/ point guard vision/ like Rod Strickland/ he was quarterback Jeff Blake to Carl Pickens/ but something was missing/ headed towards collision/ all this was based on my hero’s decision/ pump the brakes now throw it in reverse/ the hero I had was a gift and curse/ that’s what I get for putting him first/ fractions of my life/ yeah it’s time to invert/ the bonds that I ? it’s time to disperse/ take the penalty and pay God the tax/ road less taken/ took the wrong path/ Robert Frost on the pavement I can handle that/ positioning the light/ now I can track/ life is kicking off Devin Hester run it back/ matter of fact it’s black and white like a zero/ check the melody of this guitar hero…

Jolowmight: Heroes never scream/ never careen/ never lose/ always on top/ jockin’ for the illest position/ every decision is guaranteed to make the least of these bleed/ profusely/ loosely clinging to the rules cuz them are for fools/ how anti-hero can I be?/ a man with no name/ playing games with lives/ but ending up unforgiven/ cuz he got it coming/ now how you living? Tried to live like them but ended up in prison/ when I grow up, I wanna be Indiana Solo Skywalker Jones/ destroying homes with injustice/ but might makes right/ a real superman don’t give a hot damn/splitting atoms over Japan/ your plans must be surrender but pretenders are scared of their shadows/ so we photoshop it out of history’s JPEG/ thank God for the shoulders that I stand on/ who taught me right from wrong/ I gotta change the tone/ loc’d out like my swag is invisible/ but it’s indivisible/ no remainder/ heroes are strangers to decimal points/ (only) whole numbers/ so they ain’t gotta read between the integers

Big T: It’s a new mind/ it’s my time/ we movin’ on up so we don’t decline/ I hope y’all getting strength from the rhyme/ can never hold us down cuz we back on the grind/

Chaddy C: Back on the grind/ ain’t no clips in my nine/ just poppin shit from my mind/ heroes keep falling/ time after time/ sitting in this dark room open up the blinds/

Jolowmight: so let the Light shine/ expose all the fakers/ those who play heroes but are only takers/ perpetrators/ terminators/ devastators/ decepticons/ believing in such things will only make us pawns

Big T: Susceptible to anything/ renew the mindframe for what the Spirit brings/ I can feel it in my heart like when an angel sings/ believe the truth that’s inside or it won’t mean a thing

Chaddy C: Hard to swallow like whole grain/ feelings of nirvana like Cobain/ I can feel the teen spirit in my big vein/ a voice in this world with no gain

Jolowmight: Naw... fame and heroes ain’t synonymous/ anonymous mamas, dads, mentors, and scores of folk/ who overcome daily battles and circumstance/ and give the next generation a chance to advance…
