Lyrics

[00:05.13] Oh 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
[00:17.75] 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
[00:29.75] 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
[01:34.81] 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
[02:25.27] 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 f**k 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
[03:10.90] 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] Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah
[03:33.50] "The saga continues "
