[01:05.83] | An' a flag on a moon |
[01:07.23] | And can't find food for the starving tummies |
[01:09.72] | Pay no mind to the youths |
[01:10.92] | Cause it's not like the future depends on it |
[01:13.18] | But save the animals in the zoo |
[01:14.79] | Cause the chimpanzee dem a make big money |
[01:17.26] | This is how the media pillages |
[01:19.21] | On the TV the picture is |
[01:20.43] | Savages in villages |
[01:21.93] | And the scientist still can't explain the pyramids, huh |
[01:24.76] | Evangelists making a living on the videos of ribs of the little kids |
[01:28.32] | Stereotyping the image of the images |
[01:30.16] | And this is what the image is |
[01:32.08] | You buy a khaki pants |
[01:33.57] | And all of a sudden you say a Indiana Jones |
[01:36.19] | An' a thief out gold and thief |
[01:38.54] | out the scrolls and even the buried bones |
[01:40.51] | Some of the worst paparazzis I've ever seen and I ever known |
[01:43.59] | Put the worst on display so the world can see |
[01:46.15] | And that's all they will ever show |
[01:47.81] | So the ones in the West Will never move East |
[01:50.18] | And feel like they could be at home |
[01:51.59] | Dem get tricked by the beast |
[01:52.85] | But a where dem ago flee when the monster is fully grown? |
[01:55.41] | Solomonic linage whe dem still |

[02:42.11] | Can you read thoughts? can you read palms? |
[02:45.80] | Huh, can you predict the future? can you see storms, coming? |
[02:49.99] | The Earth was flat if you went too far you would fall off |
[02:53.42] | Now the Earth is round |
[02:54.63] | If the shape change again everybody woulda start laugh |
[02:57.15] | The average man can't prove of most of the things |
[02:59.46] | That he chooses to speak of |
[03:01.01] | And still won't research and find out |
[03:02.83] | The root of the truth that you seek of |
[03:04.79] | Scholars teach in Universities and claim |
[03:07.60] | that they're smart and cunning |
[03:09.42] | Tell them find a cure when we sneeze |
[03:12.84] | And that's when their nose start running |
[03:13.27] | And the rich get stitched up, when we get cut |
[03:15.94] | Man a heal dem broken bones in the bush with the wet mud |
[03:20.71] | Can you read signs? can you read stars? |
[03:24.69] | Can you make peace? can you fight war? |
[03:28.74] | Can you milk cows, even though you drive cars? huh |
[03:32.57] | Can you survive? Against all odds, now? |

[03:59.19] | Sabali, sabali, sabali kiye(people that just ignorant) |
[04:06.34] | Ni kêra mg?(You're scared of the truth, be patient for now) |
[04:07.21] | Who wrote the Bible? Who wrote the Qur'an? |
[04:10.36] | And was it a lightning storm |
[04:11.92] | That gave birth to the Earth |
[04:13.15] | And then dinosaurs were born? damn |
[04:14.94] | Who made up words? Who made up numbers? |
[04:16.85] | And what kind of spell is mankind under? |
[04:18.93] | Everything on the planet we preserve and can it |
[04:21.35] | Microwaved it and try it |
[04:22.71] | No matter what we'll survive it |

[04:28.20] | Eatin', deletin', ruin |
[04:30.69] | Trying to get paper |
[04:32.30] | Gotta have land, gotta have acres |
[04:34.42] | So I can sit back like Jack Nicholson |
[04:36.51] | Watch niggas play the game like the Lakers |
[04:38.53] | In a world full of 52 fakers |
[04:40.25] | Gypsies, seances, mystical prayers |
[04:42.26] | You superstitious? throw salt over your shoulders |
[04:44.89] | Make a wish for the day cuz |
[04:46.41] | Like somebody got a doll of me |
[04:47.67] | Stickin' needles in my arteries |
[04:49.07] | But I can't feel it |
[04:50.19] | Sometimes it's like 'part of me, but I got a real big spirit' |
[04:53.40] | I'm fearless I'm fearless |
[04:55.47] | Don't you try and grab hold of my soul |
[04:57.80] | It's like a military soldier since seven years old |
[05:01.08] | I held real dead bodies in my arms |
