Leaders Lyrics - Distant Relatives - Nas

This one's for all the leaders, leader 

Let's all change the world, change the world 

This one's for all the leaders, leader 

Let's all change the world, change the world 

Yeah, got out the 600, blunted chicks hunt him 

Neighborhood know he comin' 

Jake hate him, snakes could not violate him 

Pimps memorize his lines verbatim 

He reps N.Y., yo, gives C notes to winos 

Not church, it's how he tithe though 

He walks the tenement sleeps at his super fly condo 

My kind a nigga, my icon, my idol 

No certificate for this misfit who handle business 

The odds stacked against him, he fights back mack'n Benzes 

Never puts cash or ass before friendship 

He laughs last as some die young he is still existing 

Somehow he got around the pitfalls of the system 

When he walks, we watch 

When he talks, we listen, leaders 

This one's for all the leaders, leader 

Let's all change the world, change the world 

This one's for all the leaders, leader 

Let's all change the world, change the world 

Who do I follow? Who do I copy? 

Look in to the mirror and it's you I see look at me 

Everything new like it fresh from the factory 

Everything you do, it impact me 

Your lifestyle attract me, parents try distract me 

When I grow up I want to be like you exactly 

And as soon as I get over this acne 

There's no way anybody coulda stop me 

Me gravitate toward the aura and all the mannerism 

The sending out of orders and man start moving busy 

The locking of the corners, the streets and all the buildings 

Mi love you like a father, mi ready and mi willing 

Anything what you a talk is law in my dominion 

And mi have similar thoughts, I share the same opinions 

Mi have it say you smart with mi best interest at heart 

I'm following your path, yow mine, when you a walk 

This one's for all the leaders, leader 

Let's all change the world, change the world 

This one's for all the leaders, leader 

Let's all change the world, change the world 

They appeal to the conscious, the paramount 

The Cesar, the monsters, the grandiose 

The matters, the hell on earth pompous 

Ellsworth Bumpy Johnsons, the Harlemites, the Garveyites 

Black as the credit card we swipe, poppin' Dom tonight 

For all of mine, I can see myself back at the Autobahn 

Malcolm on the podium, shells drop to linoleum 

Swipe those, place 'em on display at the Smithsonian 

Next to only gems that were left behind by holy men 

Infectious charisma of those who gave us direction 

The anti-sexes, resistance against oppression 

Progressive thinking, ghetto speakers 

Protestors against the colored only section to the Jena 6 and 

The Frost Nixon, the contradiction, the cross, the crucifixion 

The loss we took for sinning on Esau's back inscription 

That it was written that nothing is coincidence and 

They took our leaders and they lynched them 

This one's for all the leaders, leader 

Let's all change the world, change the world 

This one's for all the leaders, leader 

Let's all change the world, change the world 

Change the world, change the world 

Change the world 

Change the world, change the world 

Yeah, change the world
