Nigga, you betta drink half a gallon of shaolin
Before you pluck the strings of my violin
My life is orchestrated
Like london symphony, concentrated
Niggas waited and waited
I'm birthday wishes belated
Blow out the candles
I wait in the darkness, like a vandal
The silhouette of set in the mirror on the mantle
Fire place is in the heart
Water places the art
'Round the islands of desiring wheremost primitives stalk
Sacrificing their daughters
But these primordial waters
Carry a feminine agenda that no man ever taught us
True, they captured and caught us
Transported, sold us, and bought us
Constituted and lawed us
Distorted truths that they taught us
We rebelled, then they fought us
We conformed, then they formed us
Now your niggas rhyme about material possessions
My Adidas are three years old, like my daughter
Niggas rhyme 'bout alizé and need to rhyme about water
But out of chaos comes order
Out of chaos comes order
Out of chaos comes order
Out of chaos comes order
Out of chaos comes order
Out of chaos comes order
Out of chaos comes order
Fake niggas run for the border
Lalalala

In a past life I was a woodcarver's knife
The sharpened blade of a woodcutter
The eldest son of the chief's brother:
A maker of drums
We scraped the insides of goat hides
To seek the hollows where sound resides
Offering the parts we did not use
To invoke the muse
Music of the ghettos, the cosmos
The negroes, the necros:
Overcomers of death, disciples of breath
Dissection of drumbeats like Osiris by Seth
Breakbeats into fourteen pieces
Dissembled chaos, organized noise
A patchwork of heartbeats to resurrect true b-boys
Be men
Let's mend the broken heart of Isis
Age of Aquarius, mother nature is furious
While you rhyme about being hardcore
Be heartcore
What is it that we do art for?
Metaphor, meta sin
It's an age of healing
Why not rhyme about what you're feeling?
Or not be felt
Deal with the cards you're dealt
Calling all tarot readers and sparrow feeders (Lalalala)
To cancel the apocalypse
Metaphorically speaking (Lalalala)
Metaphorically speaking
