Tekst :
I ve seen so many facesThese hands have lied before
I ve kissed so many lips it s blocked my mind
I ve whispered bullshit, nothings
I ve cried alone in night
I thought I d found the one a million times
But doesn t anyone fill the void?
Doesn t anyone kill the joy?
Doesn t anyone take the place of you in my heart?
And doesn t anyone fill the void?
Doesn t anyone kill the joy?
Doesn t anyone take the place of you?
I let a stranger love me
I gave away my pride
I bit my lips, so I could block my mind
I ve called your name to others
Just like a spinal chord
Severed and broken but the spark still tries
And doesn t anyone fill the void?
Doesn t anyone kill the joy?
Doesn t anyone take the place of you in my heart?
Doesn t anyone fill the void?
Doesn t anyone kill the noise?
Doesn t anyone take the place of you?
They don t know you like I do
They don t see the good inside you
They don t lie with you in bed and join you when you re dreaming
They don t see your softer side
Who ll be there to turn your light on?
Who will try to wash away the stain that love has left us?
Doesn t anyone fill the void?
Doesn t anyone kill the joy?
Doesn t anyone kill the place of you in my heart?
Doesn t anyone bring the noise?
Doesn t anyone kill the joy?
Doesn t anyone take the place of you?

Q Tip Talking:Lets talk about these things we see
Walking across the land
Lets talk about these joints I got
Every body get down
Lets talk about these things we see
Lets talk about these joints I got
Chorus:
Lets talk about the rules I bring
And the things we take
And the jobs we hold
And the land we stole
And a buck or two
And the love for you
And the things you do (5X)
I puff L s with ladies and gentlemen
I break spells with faith in a burst of wind
Others talk but.what they talk about?
Who could walk but live what they walkabout
A calm head in the middle of wartime
People go down just so they could get more shine
Girls wave your flag and surrender your faculty
Niggaz got geez but its not really mack to me
Keep it soft like we killers and often gat
You walking on me guaranteed you be crawling back
Abstract see it like this is the king in you
Allies living one more if I m fuckin too
Dogs don t eat it up increase they feedin time
I ll be damned if a mutt starts eating mine
Let s stay clubbed out the moon makes it whistle
Pants gripped your ass now I hope they don t fall apart
Look around you tell me who else is shining girl
Fat rapping cats on my dick they just whining girl
That s just the magnetism that a Queens fella has
Range rover gism and he fronting with his Lexus ass
But watch imma drop to a bronco
See me in your Bentley nigga just honk yo!
And just know that your man to can get that
And just though that I don t really wet that
And just know that this nigga here flips tracks
Ooh what, whose ya, pain and slip dat
The illest regiment is what I represent
Get us mad you gonna see the way gorillas went
Mactime I need a diamond at least a friend
I fear Allah he has no start and he has no end
We raise the roof up and tear the fuck up off
Bucking hard like the coast guard, who s soft?
Repeat chorus (3X)
Tekst :
[Verse 1]Hustlin s in my blood my father s name is Britain
His history consisted of robbery killin and pimpin
Filthy rich and the biggest killer that you ever seen
Once I m older I m takin over ima be king
I was locked up in jail when he got the new land
Opened his cells I guess that s how the story began
First mission was to clear it out and claim it as mine
Indigenous people were peaceful it took no time
Great grandmother Africa was blind and disabled
Sons was traitors we played divide and conquer invaded
Sold her children into slavery and profited quick
Started makin side deals and that s how I got rich
Daddy Britain found out and tried to put me in check
He don t understand I m a man and I deserve some respect
Tried to bring it to me but I play for keeps and I won
Still my daddy but you ain t the only man with a gun
More money More problems little brother is wild
They call em The South he s country with a big ass mouth
Tried to show em new business but he don t wanna change
I love em but I knew eventually I d blow out his brains
I m America!
[Chorus]
You know you know God Bless America
You know you know God Bless America
You know you know God Bless
[Verse 2]
Me and my daddy still cool and my uncles is with us
France Russia and Italy and we all killas
But it s this nigga named Germany that s out of control
Rollin with Japan and Turkey and them niggas is bold
Started fuckin with my uncles and we all went to war
Uncle France damn near died at the tip of his sword
When the smoke cleared we won let em retreat
Shoulda killed em cause they knew they had us close to defeat
Kicked it off again 20 years later it was on
This time my uncle Italy traded and he was gone
I was neutral when Japan hit me guess that he knew
I aint gone let my family fight without me jumpin in too
Woulda lost if I didn t hit Germany s weapon supply
Kamikaze Japanese was always ready to die
Dropped atomic bomb let them niggas know that it s real
Speak soft with a big stick do what I say or be killed
I m America!
[CHORUS]
You know you know God Bless America
You know you know God Bless America
You know you know God Bless
[Verse 3]
I m racin with my uncle Russia we the ones with the guns
He supported the North so I rolled with South Vietnam
Thought it would be easy but almost 60 thousand died
They was harder than Korea so we ran for our lives
It s a family called the Middle East and they got bread
Sellin oil they don t cut me in then off with their head
I got a nephew named Israel that s right in the middle
Pay his allowance as long as he can dance to my fiddle
I had a patna named Iraq gave em weapons and money
Nigga started getting power and he start actin funny
Saudi Arabia s cool gotta son Bin Laden
I was trainin his soldiers to go against the Russians and stop em
Then he tried to say I need to take my soldiers and cut
Gave em the finger that s when he flipped and blew my shit up
I took it to em, and then I took it back to Iraq and if you ain t my blood brother you gonna be flat on
yo back
The sons of Africa just invented this shit called rap
Tellin my secrets that s why I m puttin their heads on flat
Built an empire quick and it might not last
But I bet I go down in history as the one that smashed
I m America!
[Chorus]
You know you know God Bless America
You know you know God Bless America
You know you know God Bless
Hustlin s in my blood my father s name is Britain
Hustlin s in my blood my father s name is Britain
The red the white the red the white the blue
The red the white the red the white the blue
