Murder to Excellence Lyrics » Kanye West
[Produced by S1 and Swizz Beatz]
[Part I: Murder]
[Intro: Jay Z]
Uh, bloody murder, murder, murder
Bloody murder, murder, murder, murder
Bloody murder, murder, murder, murder
Bloody murder, murder, murder
[Chorus: Kanye West &
Jay Z
]
Paper read, “Murder, Black-on-Black murder”
Paper read, “Murder, Black-on-Black murder” again (
Uh
)
[Verse 1: Jay Z]
This is to the memory of Danroy Henry
Too much enemy fire to catch a friendly
Strays from the same shade, nigga, we on the same team
Giving you respect, I expect the same thing, uh
All-black everything, nigga, you know my fresh code
I’m out here fighting for you, don’t increase my stress load
Niggas watching the throne, very happy to be you
Power to the people, when you see me, see you
[Verse 2: Kanye West]
And I’m from the murder capital where they murder for capital
Heard about at least three killings this afternoon
Looking at the news like, “Damn, I was just with him after school”
No shop class, but half the school got a tool
And a “I could die any day”-type attitude
Plus his little brother got shot reppin’ his avenue
It’s time for us to stop and redefine Black power
Forty-one souls murdered in fifty hours

About Kanye West’s Murder to Excellence from Watch the Throne (2011)
“Murder To Excellence” is the thematic centerpiece of
Watch The Throne
. The song, like the album, contains lyrical expressions of the spectrum of black experience and blackness in contemporary American society.
The song consists of two parts that discuss two movements. “Murder” speaks about how the cycles of poverty and violence between black communities that many African-Americans find it difficult to escape and how they should learn to love each other and unite to fight greater purposes like racism and unfair police treatment.
“Excellence” treats a more positive subject. Despite all odds, some African-Americans have escaped the stereotypical “ghetto” and risen to become a new American elite. Jay and Kanye are examples of this. Gradually but surely, the experience of blackness in America is improving in a big way.
