Schoolly D - Peace To The Nation Lyrics

[James Brown x4] (Two times)

Peace to the muthaf*ckin Nation
(Peace to the muthaf*ckin Nation) [x4]

[Funky Fresh Four Plus One]
(If you're ready for this
Say you're ready for this
If you're ready for this
Say you're ready for this
Are you ready for this
We're ready for this
Are you ready for this
We're ready for this
Well, we just can't miss
We just can't miss
Well, we just can't miss
With a beat like this)

I seen a brother kill another brother
Then I heard the brother say "Word to the mother"
Thought to myself: is this insane
Or this just another bullshit game?
Keep playin and if I keep groovin
What that muthaf*cka Schoolly D provin?
That I'm a blackman you misunderstand
So what you're sayin? (Word to the motherland)
And the reality for me and you
What that muthaf*cka think you think that we can do
To give
Peace to the muthaf*ckin Nation
(Peace to the muthaf*ckin Nation) [x4]

(If you're ready for this
Say you're ready for this
If you're ready for this
Say you're ready for this
Are you ready for this
We're ready for this
Are you ready for this
We're ready for this)

So what you're sayin, so what you're doin?
What that muthaf*cka think you think that you're pursuin
Money and fame in this bullshit game for life
Stabbed in the back by my own brother's knife
I keep strivin, dip-dip-divin
While the others keep killin and robbin
And stealin and petty drug-dealin
F*ckin up bitches, that's how I'm feelin
The reality for me and you
What that muthaf*cka think you think that we can do
To get

Peace in the muthaf*ckin nation
(Peace in the muthaf*ckin nation) [x3]
Peace to the muthaf*ckin Nation
(Peace to the muthaf*ckin Nation)

(If you're ready for this
Say you're ready for this
If you're ready for this
Say you're ready for this
Are you ready for this
We're ready for this
Are you ready for this
We're ready for this)

The three top-sellin black products
Is gold, hoes and any narcotic
Let me tell you a little somethin 'bout knowledge
How many black muthaf*ckas go to college?
In my mind there's a light like a lantern
I can see there's a muthaf*ckin pattern
The brothers on the street just tryin
Is the same muthaf*cka that's dyin
And the reality for me and you
What that muthaf*cka think you think that we can do
To give

Peace to the muthaf*ckin Nation
(Peace to the muthaf*ckin Nation) [x4]

(If you're ready for this
Say you're ready for this
If you're ready for this
Say you're ready for this
Are you ready for this
We're ready for this
Are you ready for this
We're ready for this
Well, we just can't miss
We just can't miss
Well, we just can't miss
With a beat like this) [x2]
