Do you think that the powers that be
|
Are goin' to let you do what you want to do for eternity?
|
Of course you don't, so what do you fear?
|
Why you spazzin' out, why you so scared?
|
Everybody wanna be first, nobody wants to be last
|
Do you think a God that created this would watch all of us die while others just laugh?
|
What happens when the money system crash?
|
And there's no more value in the cash?
|
You gon' suck dick and sell ass?
|
You gon' try to fight back with' ya hands?
|
You probably gon' change your money into gold
|
You gon' use that to try and buy soul
|
Buy some drugs with it, buy a peice of hole
|
Don't tell me, I don't wanna know
|
You need to come up with a better plan
|
The Devil smash metal weapons like glass
|
Right now we out-matched and out-classed
|
We have to stay on a spiritual path
|
'Cause in the absence of love we blastin' one another with blood
|
Media shows up to capture the buzz
|
I'm a child of God and a rapper from the gutter
|
I'm six of one and half a dozen of the other
|
This is not one of those 'I told you so' moments
|
This is just Canibus being open
|
Lower egoic minds brush aside
|
But can't nullify the high science that is coming from the rhymes
|
I couldn't believe it the day that I was told
|
That every person alive does not have a soul
|
And is not in control of these cotton pickin' bowls
|
Politicians declare the war of attrtion on the globe
|
And stole all the fishin' holes
|
Grandma got the chitlins on the stove,
|
That'll overload the senses in your nose
|
Young folk can't even afford to get old
|
How many Youtube views before you go gold?
|
How many albums last week you sold?
|
How many leak downloads?
|
Oh, you still believe in Soundscan, bro?
|
Don't be discouraged
|
Write and produce and record and you love it
|
This is your Art, and that's the point of it
|
When you get paid from it, things change people behave stubborn
|
And say rude things to judge it
|
They want you to thug it, so they can have you like a test subject
|
Handcuffed and take mug shots of it
|
I told you before I'm nobodies spit puppet
|
I say what I want, you take what you want from it
|
This is a social experiment put on by the public
|
Hip Hop is completely corrupted
|
You ain't rappin' 'bout that, you ain't rappin' 'bout nothin'
|
I ain't never gon' starve, I been white tail huntin'
|
Ya'll motherfuckers is buggin', speakin' with no substance
|
Hip Hop's the way it is because of you cousin
|
It ain't my fault, you locked me out of it
|
99 percent of my fans ain't nothin'
|
But scumbag, scumbuckers, blood suckin', cock fuckers
|
My lyrics too advanced for the average block hustler
|
You know my name, I'm deeply inspired
|
On a mountain lion meat diet, eat and be quiet
|
Recycle the fire and deep fry it
|
That line is hot, but you said it before, you get a C-
|
My shit is timeless like the Great Wall of China
|
Sick in the biggest way like a dinosaur virus
|
Spreadin' through Verizon Wireless
|
Homeland Securities tryin' it, just to see if you lyin' Bis
|
They step to me, never thought it would happen like this
|
You a flight risk, we need that microphone back Bis
|
Diversionary tactics, Magik madness
|
Canibus, you can't leave this miserable prison planet, God damnit
|
We don't care what you're fans think
|
'Cause 99 percent of all of the don't exist
|
The observer changes the properties of the observed
|
This is done with your mind, not with your words
|
Word? Yeah, I'm about to show you nerds
|
You book worms really startin' to get on my nerves
|
I can't talk like you, but I can understand you
|
I know what this entire ordeal can expand to
|
I love Hip Hop, I've always been a fan too
|
I'm a big fan of everything you do
|
I appreciate the purchases, the online searches
|
I hope you enjoy the verses, it was great to be of service
|
This was always my purpose
|
I'm always workin' to be a better person everyday
|
And still growin' like the Earth is
|
Peace to the Gods and the Earths, kid
|
