The Day After

[Masta Killa]

[humming the beat]

I awoke from oppression, I began to write for y'all

Truth from a speck of light

I chose to bring belief to those

That hunger for the food of thought

cuz this is the life we chose

Fool's gold tipped many and led 'em astray

Others watched them go down

They was afraid to speak on it

Some never recovered from the mental enslavement

I came greatness

The world wasn't ready to face me

[Masta Killa] "Never.. the God too clever.. never.. he seen it comin..

Never.. the God too clever"

[Masta Killa]

Now this wicked brother Cal

Ordered them to cover their faces painted with smiles

and they came, from air, land and oceans

I watched as the sides of good and evil was chosen

Everything seemed to move in slow motion

People ran frantic as herds of wild steed

Their minds like rabbits, souls like deer, fear was felt

and when the radiation melt the eyes from their heads

I fled seeking cover to find none

Triumph a selection played by RZA

Buildings crumbled

Missiles and bullets whistled, the Earth rumbled

Water filled tunnels quickly from both ends

Chunks dropped from buildings that swayed from high winds

[Masta Killa] "They thought he would slither.."

[Masta Killa]

Trees buckled like knees

Continuing to build and break the seventh seal

From the sky came firey hail, trains derailed

Horseman hooded with sheets shaped in concrete

War of the lion, voids thunder when I speak

From their finger came lightning, striking the beast [thunder]

Jail cell broken by the wise words spoken

Gun smokin'.. it's the def poet quotin'

[Masta Killa] "Never.. the God too clever.. never.. he seen it comin..
