Pantera Negra

My skin, Luanda
Lobby, Aruanda
Like T'Challa, Wakanda
Black Mamba poison
A bunch of bandoliers
Who's the ruler here?
Tonight ya'll will see more blood
Than in Hotel Rwanda

The era comes wild
Panther on the loose
Show its black claws
I brought the night as camouflage
I'm avenger, avenging the pain
Of those crushed by the gear
While you are coup I'm Sabotage

Mystic, a thousand orishas in a pantheon, brave
I kill settlers, bringing them to an end, like a Tsavo lion
I go deep, indeed
Never hold me back, it's worse
Monster, skull, Vibranium
I cut you in 12 pieces
A flash like Usain Bolt, 10. 000 Volts
A round of applauses from my ancestors, listen
Tanehi with no coaches

Long memory, short temper
In this approach and so
Tell 'em that the one has come back like um (ak) a

With determination, reason and chill, bro
If the things get rough, better go back
Like Black Panther (I came back)
Like Black Panther
With determination, reason and chill, bro
If the things get rough, better go back
Like Black Panther (I came back)
Like Black Panther

Now on my slab, she's like Dora Milaje
Sprouts at the base, very Nicki Minaj-y, it's a mirage
Jet Mirage, flying high, Mr. Spock
Team like Green lantern, I'm very Static

For a new Red Sea
A new crossing
For the people to see kings in the mirror
My pen creates
Wu Tang street, Superman plus technology
Symbolic like a guide
In the cold night
I'll smash boys that mock black culture
A Kasparov toasting mate and writing checks
I'm not a fan of slave owners, independent on the tracks
If you're smart respect my timing, don't be a brat

If come like Stan Lee, like Spike Lee
Kinda Bruce Lee
I'm taking Brazil style Mauricio Kubrusly
Like Solange at a Seat At A Table
Black or dark-skinned? When in doubt call her princess
Self-knowledge, self-help
Time flow, like samples, like Buda
Love that could fill a thousand books
Like Gabo or Neruda
Who married the Storm
Does not turn on umbrella
Got it?

With determination, reason and chill, bro
If the things get rough, better go back
Like Black Panther (I came back)
Like Black Panther
With determination, reason and chill, bro
If the things get rough, better go back
Like Black Panther (I came back)
Like Black Panther
