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
