Who's Gonna Take the Weight?

'Cuz I been plannin' to be rammin' what I wrote
Guru with the mic and premier raise the anchor
I've been through so much that I'm such
Swiftly, as we embark on a journey
I needed someone to defend my position
Can we be the sole controllers of our fate?
Others fall victim to envy
Straight on a plate down your throat
A maniac but I still act out of faith
And people with no sense who be movin' much too slow
You should know the truth and the truth shall set you free
And just imagine if each one is teachin' one
Decisions I made, 'cuz now it's time to get paid
Still, all of that is just material
And for my people out there I got a question
Find your direction through introspection
Any means necessary, I'm goin' all out
That some try to be down just 'cuz it's trendy
I had to get an attorney
That we can get the shit together so I break

And so, you will know the meaning of the Gang Starr
On fools with no rhymes skills messin' up the flow
Before the rains bring the nuclear fallout
That's how I'm lookin' at it

And many brothers droppin'
You can't handle the whole weight
Original invincible
We gotta fight with the right mentality
Now who's gonna take the weight?
You can't be sleepin'
'Cuz things are gettin' crazy
So as my feelings unwind I find

But I'll take the road less traveled
This is the meaning of the chain and the star
In the situation that you're facin'
So we can gain what is rightfully ours
And just like a Jammy goes pow
So won't you dig the scenario
You can't handle the whole weight
Nature of my life relates rhymes I release like a cannon
I was raised like a Muslim prayin' to the east
And let's dig into every nook and every cranny
So I can see all my hopes and my dreams unravel
We'll come together so that we become
You can't handle the whole weight
Ayo, who's gonna take the weight?

All because of dumb things, let me tell you somethin'

I use my rhymes like a Glock automatic
You better stop being lazy
That's why I'm down with the nation
So let me ask you, is it too late?
The weight of the world is heavy on my mind
Relievin' your stress, expressin' my interest

There's many people frontin'

Set your mind free as I slam these thoughts
And ladies, these rhymes are like the keys to a dope car
Let's see how far I can take ya

So digest as I suggest we take a good look
You can't handle the whole weight
A strong force, then we can stay on course

At who's who while I'm readin' from my good book
Maybe a Lexus or a Jaguar
Spirituality supports reality
You can't handle the whole weight
Land is power, so gimme forty acres
You're gonna see what I'm sayin' now
