| Song | Show N Prove - Explicit Version |
| Artist | Inspectah Deck |
| Album | Uncontrolled Substance |
| 作曲 : J. Brand/J.K. Hunter/M. McDonald | |
| The power of God's in you (show and prove) | |
| The power of God's in you (show and prove) | |
| The power of God's in you (show and prove) | |
| True, The time has come through | |
| Chose the few, must show and prove | |
| [Intro: Inspectah Deck *in the the background of the chorus*] | |
| Yea, this is the power, true power | |
| Showin and provin | |
| [Inspectah Deck] | |
| I once asked God to forgive for my sins | |
| Bent on my knees pleadin to be heavenly cleansed | |
| Said the Holy Ghost changed the ways and actions of men | |
| When I stood, I felt the same as if I just walked in | |
| I was twelve at the time, held nines, held mines | |
| A frail mind, criminal thoughts well-designed | |
| Then the Older Gods put me on, on how to rock this | |
| Maintain, 360, lord and live prosperous | |
| His jewel was priceless, keep the cypher righteous | |
| Bare in mind, God, some of your own won't like this | |
| I'm mentally scarred, recooperatin from abrasure | |
| Fooled by interpretations made from a traitor | |
| It's in my nature, I was taught, that's the first law | |
| Obtain the food, clothin and the shelter that I search for | |
| The fire in my eyes is hot as Earth's core | |
| What hurts more, the fact that we still dirt poor | |
| In hard times force crimes out of honest man | |
| And most fiend to see the so-called promised land | |
| Sun of Man, knowledge, wisdom and understand | |
| that it's time to take matters in our own hands | |
| [Chorus] | |
| [Inspectah Deck] | |
| The wicked ways of the world can't escape sin | |
| I'm facin masses gun on the plantation | |
| Seen source from home yet I'm still caved in | |
| Cuz 9000 miles is such a long way to swim | |
| and many die tryin to survive the next mile | |
| Famillies was raised as slaves and exiled | |
| I learned it as a child, knowledge be the key | |
| to unlock your brain and set your mindstate free | |
| It's true, the times come through, chose the few | |
| Show and prove, the power of God's in you | |
| or remain a savage in pursuit of happiness | |
| Who lacks jewels, love and peace completes the package | |
| The fact is five out a hundred know the truth | |
| The wisdom might blow the roof when shown and proved | |
| [Chorus] | |
| [Inspectah Deck] | |
| Through the course of time, we was dumb, deaf and blind | |
| Now we on the incline, build with one mind | |
| Came a long way, but, yo, we still far behind | |
| So, uplift the mind, God, rise and shine | |
| I speak to the black-bellied yellow seeds | |
| My fellow breed all races, colors and creeds | |
| Search for the knowledge, use science and math | |
| and be queens and kings like the centuries past | |
| The devil tried to fool my people, said we was equal | |
| But I believe him when my culture sees freedom | |
| You beat 'em with the positive thoughts, you don't need em | |
| Leave him in the dirt, let the blood suckers see him | |
| [Chorus to fade] |
