Wake Up

Peace to the Gods Peace Allah A-yo there go that brother Grand Puba I heard that brother got knowledge of self Yo true indeed brother Yo let's have that brother come over and add on to the cipher [Grand Puba] A-yo knowledge this The attribute Hagi helper to another God In need He Allah God Islam As I proceed to civilize the uncivilized Word of wisdom to the groove from the wise (speak on it God) I guess I'm like the Verbalizer for the fact I'm moving blackwards This asiatic black man is a dog spelled backwards The maker, the owner, the cream of the planet Earth Father of civilization, God of the universe Manifesting thoughts with my infinite styles Making sure this travels, twenty-three million miles The other six I set the crucifix Because the heart of the problem is this.. (speak on it God) Preacher got my Old Earth putting money in the pan For the rest of the week now I'm eating out a soup can He has a home, drives a Caddy through town Has my Old Earth believing that he's coming from the ground (Jesus) Slain are those who fought for what was right Slayed are those who fell victim to the pipe A drug controlled substance, contained in a vial Set up by the devil as he looks and he smiles Good at the game of tricknology But I have knowledge of myself you're not fooling me You see the answer to me is black unity Unification, to help our bad situation I wrote this on a day of wisdom power All being born to myself (God!) I won't diss the next brother to be paid that's not my trade It's just the plan that is designed by the colored man Now our babies are born to think this is the way of us (the way of us) That's the way the devil wants it so it is no fuss (it is no fuss) It's just that sad old song self-destruction To stop our reproduction They put our Wisdom before us (murderer!) That makes it Wisdom Knowledge (murderer!) But we need Knowledge Wisdom To bring forth the Understanding (murderer!) Culture Freedom (murderer!) Power Refinement (murderer!) Equality God Build Destroy Borns our Cipher (mudererer!) (Can a devil fool a Muslim?) No, not nowadays bro (Do you mean to say the devil fooled us 400 years ago?) Why Equal Self, a trader made an interpretation Saying that we'd receive more gold for our labor in his nation (Did we receive more gold?) God, Now Cipher It's time to drop the bomb and make the devil pay the piper (True indeed God true indeed God) Why Equal Self (True indeed God true indeed..) The solution, knowledge of self to better ourself Cause I know myself, that we can live much better than this Nothing's changed, it's just another sequel The devil's still causing trouble amongst the righteous people Drugs in our community (That ain't right) Can't even get a job (That ain't right) Poisoning our babies (That ain't right) Lying who is God (That ain't right) Well here's some food for thought, many fought for the sport And the black man still comes up short? It's time to motiviate, build and elevate Blind deaf and dumb we've gotta change their mindstate So I dip dip diver, civilize a 85er Gotta let him know the devil's a conniver This is the plan from the brotherman From the motherland now it's time to take a stand I keep striving to do my duty to awake 'em To the universal family I say asalaam alaikum Yeah.. Now I'mma do like this Nuff respects to the brother Jazzy Jay, nuff respect Nuff respects, to my Brand Nubian brothers Bust it Lord Jamar, God Allah Derek X is on the flex Alamo is good to go Sincere, the God is in here So move on black man, move on We gotta move on black man, move on Move on black man, move on We gotta move on black man, move on Now before I motivate I'mma just say like this Please.. educate Allah's children, with equality Move on black man, move on You gotta move on black man, move on
