Lyrics Pharoahe Monch

Pharoahe Monch

Book Of Judges

I never cut the ugly, raped my mother

Deceived my sister, separated my brother

Murdered my children, hung my father

Now they want me to rock the coat, the fuck why bother

Seen their commercials for the Army or whatever

Picture me givin' a damn I said "Never"

My mind's too sharp, my brain's to clever

My spine is too strong, every line pulls your leather

Limitless rhymes for the indiginious, the remedy

Plot: Get my money like the Kennedy's

Flip it, put 'em in stocks, collect enimities

Rock, Roll, behold my epiphanies

And read 'em and weep, heat 'em I beat 'em to sleep

Mislead 'em to we 'Even Steven', defeat 'em with freedom of speech

And let 'em know that I'm the mothafuckin firestarter

Piss on the Constitution, then burn the Magna Carta

All I know is what I feel

Deceive my eyes and distort what's real

Only truth will set you free

I'd rather die on my feet, than to live on my knees

We dying over black gold, they harvest in the sand

President's livin' marvelous, they starvin' in Sudan

It's obvious who walk a blind path to oblivion

The Book Of Judges read the scriptures unlike Gideon

Light my fire, start my engine

When Pharoahe becomes Moses it's medicine for religions

A veteran with the mic bringin' prophecies, youthful wishin

Motivational verses on an adverse condition

Coded the mainframe, I seen the names man

They watch you from the streetlights, you and your main man

The barcode around your neck, seen as your main brand

You're lost in a strange land, no thoughts of a game plan

All I know is what I feel

Deceive my eyes and distort what's real

Only truth will set you free

I'd rather die on my feet, than to live on my knees

Piss on the constitution, then burn the Magna Carta

Piss on the constitution, then burn the Magna Carta

Piss on the constitution, then burn the Magna Carta

Piss on the constitution, then burn the Magna Carta

Piss on the constitution, then burn the Magna Carta

Piss on the constitution, then burn the Magna Carta

Piss on the constitution, then burn the Magna Carta

Piss on the constitution, then burn the Magna Carta (fade out)
