How You Sell Soul

We've heard all the great teachings from Malcolm to Martin

Now we have this last chance with our brother minister

To rise out of the ashes of slavery

Time is a very important element in this journey

We can't continue to be 24 karat dumb

Addicted to retail and bling

Wasting time has spent on nonsense

We got grown men in toy stores like little children in candy stores

Buying PS2's 35 and 40

Black men reduced to boys

Time dictates the agenda here

Time is god [x2]

Enough said we got to feed our heads

This shit is piping over the pulpits: TV sets and radios

Hip-hop is moving the masses

We've got to take back our children and guide them

When you love something you develop the mental capacity to reach the thing that you love

No more nonsense

The airwaves are poisonous with this gibberish

These grim hymns lack light

We need to get their ass off the mic

If hip-hop is the seeing end of the voices

Why is the dead teaching the dead

We got to end the reign of pimping and ho-ing

And entertainment for the masses

Wasting time on nonsense

Time dictates the agenda here

Time is god [x3] (Allahu Akbar)

Some say we only have a little time left

We can use it wisely

To teach, think and rebuild our mental banks

Great people don't ask comedians, actors and entertainers to lead

Great people produce what we need

For history to record our deeds as a great nation

Or will we continue to be a shell of a once great people

Wasting time on nonsense

Time dictates the agenda here

Time is god [x8]

Soul power [x8]
