Kindness For Weakness Lyrics - Dilated Peoples

Don't you take, my kindness for weakness 

Don't you take, my kindness for weakness 

Don't you take 

I might flip, but usually a calm individual 

Armed with accountants, my lawyers and other criminals 

Network with armies, street wars are critical 

And revolutionaries so streets are more liveable 

(C'mon) Fuck what your ego say 

Don't take shit for granted homey we don't play 

All's fair in love and war, piece of cake 

But beef is rare like a bloody piece of steak (Don't you take) 

Your eyes off the quiet ones, the silent ones 

With the assassin smile, the most violent 

Train until their bleeding, crying, perspiring 

And gun rings firing (Don't you take) 

The wrong side, that's the wrong idea 

Untangle it, we could get it on right here 

Never back to broke, you get tapped or choked 

I might smile, but I ain't no joke (Don't you take) 

My kindness for weakness 

Don't you take, my kindness for weakness 

Don't you take 

Love or fear, the fear last longer 

But love is stronger, so I stay loyal to love with honor 

You got those who wanna take that for weak 

Be prepared, they'll test you in front of your peeps 

Some easy advice, buy your way out my life 

It's the principle, the pockets fat not flat 

Some borrow dough and relax on payin that back? 

C'mon cat(Don't you take) me for weak, give an inch they take feet 

Give 'em feet, they take the street 

My city's called Everybody Eats, 

The operations don't skip a beat (Don't you take) 

My squad as chumps, punks or fakes 

Quick to dump, pop trunks on snakes 

That's of course, push came to shove otherwise love is love so (Don't you take) 

My kindness for weakness 

Don't you take, my kindness for weakness 

Don't you take, my kindness for weakness 

Don't you take, my kindness for weakness 

Don't you take 

Ladies and gentlemen, we have a special guest tonight in the house 

Talib Kweli (Don't you take) 

You'll never fit up in my shoes so don't try 'em on 

I always tear it up, I'm 'bout as calm as a quiet storm 

Legendary lyricist, nice guy persona 

My songs celebrate life and you can play 'em for your momma 

But don't make the mistake of tryin' to play me 

Unless you a DJ, don't get it twisted I'm still from B.K. 

Wanna front? Better keep it in your mouth like Flavor Flav 

Where I'm from even a chick spit razor blades (Don't you take) 

Me for a sucker or I'll take you back to school 

Fool can't play the wise but the wise can act a fool 

I stay cool and mild mannered and just put in my work 

Don't push you don't know what's up, under my shirt(Don't you take) 

Me for soft, I got a heart that pump 

Like a twelve gage shotty when it start to dump 

Youse a mystery, 'cause you don't know who you runnin' towards 

And got history, that shit is told by those who won the war (Don't you take) 

My kindness for weakness 

Don't you take, my kindness for weakness 

Don't you take, my kindness for weakness 

Don't you take, my kindness for weakness 

Don't you take 

Don't you take 

Don't you take 

Don't you take 

Don't you take 

Don't you take my kindness for weakness 

Don't you take my kindness for weakness 

Don't you take my kindness for weakness 

Don't you take my kindness for weakness 

Don't you take (Don't do it)
