Ohhh! Yo look towards the darkness |
| [00:07.95] |
Nah nah yo, look towards the light |
| [00:09.77] |
Yo what! Oh what the? Yo what is that? |
| [00:11.70] |
It's a supernova |
| [00:12.57] |
Nah nah man, that's a black hole |
| [00:14.76] |
Yo! Yo! |
| [00:16.50] |
Yo! |
| [00:17.07] |
|
| [00:17.75] |
Yo it's.. IT'S.. IT'S?!!! |
| [00:20.33] |
I, leap over lies in a single bound |
| [00:23.51] |
(Who are you?) The Black Prophet |
| [00:25.33] |
One day I got struck by Knowledge of Self |
| [00:27.51] |
It gave me super-scientifical powers |
| [00:29.19] |
|
| [00:29.75] |
Now I, run through the ghetto |
| [00:32.75] |
Battlin my, arch nemesis Mr. Ignorance |
| [00:35.12] |
He's been tryin to take me out since the days of my youth |
| [00:39.36] |
He feared this day would come |
| [00:40.61] |
I'm hot on his trail, but sometimes he slips away |
| [00:42.62] |
Because he has an army, they always give me trouble |
| [00:44.55] |
Mainly - Hatred, Jealousy and Envy they attack me |
| [00:47.92] |
They think they got me |
| [00:50.10] |
But I use my super-science and I twist all three |
| [00:52.66] |
I see sparks over that buildin - they're shootin at me |
| [00:55.29] |
I dip, do a backflip |
| [00:56.53] |
Then hit em in the heart with sharp steel bookmarks |
| [00:59.15] |
Ignorance hates when I drop it |
| [01:02.40] |
But no matter, what he do.. he can't stop the Prophet |
| [01:05.83] |
Yo Prophet, yo Prophet, c'mere real quick |
| [01:07.89] |
Yo I just saw Ignorance downtown, let me put you on |
| [01:10.52] |
Word, he down there buggin |
| [01:12.01] |
He got them illin out, they shootin and everything else.. |
| [01:14.20] |
Let's continue the saga, mad mad drama |
| [01:16.52] |
I met this chick, she said she knew where Ignorance was at |
| [01:19.95] |
I said, "Where?" She said, "Downtown" |
| [01:21.82] |
He had babies havin babies - and young niggaz sellin crack |
| [01:25.44] |
I think the bitch is lyin, it's a set up |
| [01:27.13] |
I can smell it, but Ignorance is runnin rampant |
| [01:29.37] |
Aight baby show me the exact spot |
| [01:31.00] |
Meet me at Hoyt and Schermerhorn at 3 on the dot |
| [01:34.12] |
|
| [01:34.81] |
So I hops up on the A-Train, I'm bein followed |
| [01:37.74] |
My seventh sense senses danger |
| [01:39.99] |
I turn around, it's Anger |
| [01:41.55] |
And he brought a mob along, it's the same old song |
| [01:44.92] |
Despair and Animosity got broke with the swiftness |
| [01:47.73] |
I don't know what they think this is |
| [01:50.10] |
I feel a sharp pain in my neck now I can't see, I'm like Hiram |
| [01:53.60] |
They hit me with the dart filled with the pork chop serum |
| [01:56.53] |
I tried to hold on but before long I dropped |
| [01:59.53] |
When I awoke I was locked in the barber's shop |
| [02:02.27] |
Trapped in the barber's chair |
| [02:03.27] |
Oh no, they're gonna try and cut my hair |
| [02:05.15] |
But that can't stop the Prophet |
| [02:06.40] |
Yo Prophet! |
| [02:07.39] |
Ignorance is tired of you followin him around |
| [02:09.40] |
We about to put an end to that RIGHT NOW |
| [02:11.96] |
Anamosity (YEA!) Despair (YO WHASSUP?) Get him!! |
| [02:14.85] |
|
| [02:25.27] |
A few minutes passed by, I hear a buzzin noise |
| [02:27.64] |
It was that chick with some of Ignorance's boys |
| [02:29.76] |
She said, "Prophet, we got you beat; |
| [02:31.45] |
by the way I'm Mr. Ignorance's wife, Deceit. |
| [02:33.63] |
But enough talk; now for your hair cut.." |
| [02:37.00] |
When the clippers touched my hair, they blew the fuck up |
| [02:39.87] |
After the explosion there was no one left |
| [02:41.87] |
Cause I know Dim Mak/poison hand/touch of death |
| [02:43.81] |
My vision's still kinda blurry, but I see a clue |
| [02:46.81] |
Ignorance is at the library |
| [02:48.80] |
I hurry, with lightning speed like The Flash |
| [02:52.30] |
He's at the big one, on Grand, Army Plaz' |
| [02:54.43] |
When I get inside the doors shut and the lights go off |
| [02:57.73] |
Damn, another trap |
| [02:59.60] |
I hear a hissin sound, I smell a funny smell |
| [03:02.16] |
I gasp, I can't breathe |
| [03:03.47] |
Ignorance is laughin at me |
| [03:05.72] |
Waitin on my downfall, but he can't stop the Prophet |
| [03:09.84] |
|
| [03:10.90] |
Well Prophet |
| [03:12.71] |
It seems like you're in a bit of a jam |
| [03:15.65] |
I hope you can unstick yourself |
| [03:18.45] |
Oh, and what you did to my wife, it was nothing |
| [03:22.32] |
I have others |
| [03:23.57] |
Hahahahahaha... hahahahaha.. hahahahahah... |
| [03:30.63] |
|
| [03:33.50] |
"The saga continues!" |
