Center of the world? Africa Up in the tree by the motherland since I was little Got a warrior's mask from Nairobi that's so official On my wall in between the rifle I copped from the jebels And the samurai swords I got from Beatrix Kiddo Yesterday, I packed my bags and left the crib-o Caught a flight to Tanzania, hopped out in the middle Of the Serengeti plains with the lions and the hippos Visit the tribe of Maasai, I admire how they live too I'm too spoiled by convenience, we argue and we quibble I tell 'em that I'm free, I'm 'bout as free as Solomon with a fiddle Headed to Dar es Salaam to wet my whistle Found a waterin' hole, shorty eyein' my zippo Like, what you tryin' to get into? I play with it when I'm pensive I sent her a Macallan, she returned it all defensive, like "You could've pretended like it takes more than a 'spensive type whiskey to make me spend the night" Uh Ready to get out of here?

Land of the blunt passers, land of the drug dealers Unreal, rollin' up ether in the corn meal Stand behind the force field Raps are unlimited, it's not definitive, infinite arithmetic I'm finna light the blunt up My lady always hold me down, it's lookin' like a come-up Our women fightin' for the right to love us Justice is what love look like in public My lady always on the frontline, providin' cover Never gun-shy about a paper like a bounty hunter Justice is what love look like in public Justice is what uh
