[Verse 1]Some of the smartest dummiesCan’t read the language of Egyptian mummiesAn’ a fly go a moonAnd can’t find food for the starving tummiesPay no mind to the youthsCause it’s not like the future depends on itBut save the animals in the zooCause the chimpanzee dem a make big moneyThis is how the media pillagesOn the TV the picture isSavages in villagesAnd the scientist still can’t explain the pyramids, huhEvangelists making a living on the videos of ribs of the little kidsStereotyping the image of the imagesAnd this is what the image isYou buy a khaki pantsAnd all of a sudden you say a Indiana JonesAn’ a thief out gold and thief out the scrolls and even the buried bonesSome of the worst paparazzis I’ve ever seen and I ever knownPut the worst on display so the world can seeAnd that’s all they will ever showSo the ones in the westWill never move eastAnd feel like they could be at homeDem get tricked by the beastBut a where dem ago flee when the monster is fully grown?Solomonic linage whe dem still can’t defeat and them coulda never cloneMy spiritual DNA that print in my soul and I will forever Own Lord
[Verse 2]Huh, we born not knowing, are we born knowing all?We growing wiser, are we just growing tall?Can you read thoughts? can you read palms?Huh, can you predict the future? can you see storms, coming?The Earth was flat if you went too far you would fall offNow the Earth is round if the shape change again everybody woulda start laughThe average man can’t prove of most of the things that he chooses to speak ofAnd still won’t research and find out the root of the truth that you seek ofScholars teach in Universities and claim that they’re smart and cunningTell them find a cure when we sneeze and that’s when their nose start runningAnd the rich get stitched up, when we get cutMan a heal dem broken bones in the bush with the wed mudCan you read signs? can you read stars?Can you make peace? can you fight war?Can you milk cows, even though you drive cars? huhCan you survive, Against All Odds, Now?
[Verse 3]Who wrote the Bible? Who wrote the Qur’an?And was it a lightning stormThat gave birth to the earthAnd then dinosaurs were born? damnWho made up words? who made up numbers?And what kind of spell is mankind under?Everything on the planet we preserve and can itMicrowaved it and try itNo matter what we’ll survive itWhat’s hu? what’s man? what’s human?Anything along the land we consumingEatin’, deletin’, ruinTrying to get paperGotta have land, gotta have acresSo I can sit back like Jack NicholsonWatch niggas play the game like the lakersIn a world full of 52 fakersGypsies, seances, mystical prayersYou superstitious? throw salt over your shouldersMake a wish for the day cuzLike somebody got a doll of meStickin’ needles in my arteriesBut I can’t feel itSometimes it’s like ‘pardon me, but I got a real big spirit’I’m fearless…. I’m fearlessDon’t you try and grab hold of my soulIt’s like a military soldier since seven years oldI held real dead bodies in my armsFelt their body turn cold, ohWhy we born in the first placeIf this is how we gotta go?Damn
