Ode to an AK

A curse and a blessing Built as a weapon Starting wars or ending them Depends on your perception But what cant be debated a sign of human intellect Good or evil right or wrong A topic that we'll get to next Started from the soviets conceived in a bed An idea from a soldier shot in soldier not the head Instead of lying waiting he got to innovating Made a better weapon for the germans he was slaying The Germans had a rifle that was slaying the Soviets Outdated technology the communists taking hits Tired of his brothers dying built upon the older Weapons that his comrades had a weapon for the soldier His name kalishnakov the weapon he'd unfold Was durable lightweight the gun it quickly showed To be a great design to send the enemy to heaven This weapon's name is AK AK 47 Automat Kalishnikova Automat Kalishnikova I know Martin but Im times Malcolm X I dont sleep cause sleep is the cousin of death Automat Kalishnikova Automat Kalishnikova I know Martin but I'm times Malcolm X I dont sleep cause sleep is the cousin of death Fast forward to the present day Guns still take our friends away You lose them to injustice people crying saying let us pray But i say let it spray defend them while they're breathing Prevention beats a pound of cure we crying when they leaving Think I'm a demon but people peep my reason The neighborhoods for poorer folk the police never be in But catch a nigga speeding they pull him over beat em Use deadly force in situations when it isn't needed That's a hard rhyme and its hard times lord knows that's tough But a glock nine when those shots fire as these times get rough Will keep the people sane but won't take away the pain Of an innocent you know of on a block that's wrongly slain But if you wanna limit guns and you say the cops is killing you You're left without a weapon and what you think that cop is finna do The AK's for the rebel nigga hold it in the sky And this movements for the people life is hard you gotta try Automat kalishnikova Automat Kalishnikova I know Martin but I'm time Malcolm X I don't sleep cause sleep is the cousin of death Automat Kalishnikova Automat Kalishnikova I know Martin but I'm time Malcolm X I don't sleep cause sleep is the cousin of death
