Yeah Hi Tech 
Whom do we aspire to reflect on peoples death 
Who's entertainment shall we sing our agony 
of our hopes 
That the destroyers aspiring to extinguish us will suddenly 
suffer remorse at the sight of their own fantastic success? 

The last imbecile to dream that dream is dead 
He was killed by the saviors of his own dream 
Our movement 

Verse One 
I'm not a human being into no spirtual shit 
Spiritual remanifested as a human that's it 

When i spit i spray thoughts that's representing my life 
Yo i step into the spot leave niggas open like mics 
Take on em on a tour 
Explore psychologies of war 
Things you can't imagine if you've never seen em before 
Shorties come back raw 
Straight out the see- 74 
I welcome them back to the world they think is run by laws 
The world is run by men who use laws for tools 
I come through war tactics like Shaka Zulu 
Mcs is soft like play-doh 
I shape 'em 
smash em to pieces 
(?) 
Slaves crave the words i'm painting 
The masterpieces 
You hear em on the radio babbling 
But the truth is traveling with the word 
As they're flying through the air like a javelin 
Unraveling like a verdict 
Pound it in your chest like a gavel in the highest court 
In Bablyon, let's travel on 
If the world is foul, and you think foul is how you got to live 
Then from the get your ass was foul 
And foul just is how you is 
No excuses see, life's dilemnas are set up like a mirror 
Just to show you all your faces 
Now your clearer understanding is clearer 
You had your chance for revolution. 

You let it pass you by 
That's why 
I'm dissing wack mc's till the day that I die 
Reflection getting you high 
We stand our ground with the believers 
The leaning tower of Pisa and the Pyramids of Giza 
No comparison 
The way I flip it is embarrassing 
Tis the season 
Ain't no caroling 

verse 2 
All knowing 
Flowing like spring water in the desert 
Balling through the barren land 
Where niggas take a stand, like castles made of sand 
Free falling 
For anything 
Nothing but a plan to fail for they selves 
No sense of delf, needed daily affirmations of self help 
Yo it's right in front of yo grill stop looking everywhere else 
Speaking of planning, 
Hustling and scheming 
Looking for hookups 
Took up too much time 
Like a fiend for rocks that got cooked up 
God bless the child that got his own shit 
I got my team's 
So the fiends now become opponents 
They the opposition 
Stronger from competition 
Shining like a golden shower, your face i'm pissing in 
Completing a genocide mission like 
The Warren commission 
Like fathers was supposed to be missing 
While our sisters were supposed to be whoring 
Save it for a rainy day, money is pouring 
Under grey clouds, black butterflys still be soaring 
Flying in frienldy skies 
We classifying the highs 
Blood be flowing in the streets like crimson tide in my eyes 
Tye be having me drowsy 
But I get mellow with the chronic 
Intellectuals embarrassed cause we discussing ebonics 
I'm on a roll like sonic 
In an age that the plague got bubonic proportions 
Yo I call it reparations, but they call it extortion 
Whatever 
Just give me mine 
But caution 
You've been warned for the very last time 
I'm not telling you again 
So relay it to your crew 
You gotta actually to do 
Forget the drive in, driveby and drive through 
You've got to 
Get out the car 
Humble yourself 
Tilt your head back, and look at the stars 
Shining over someplace very far, from where you standing 
When the night is clear 
You understanding just who put them there 
What you know about the space you get lost in 
Your peoples can't hear you in the distortion 
The desert is absorption 
And you sucked and you stuck off american freezing for like 
2000 seasons 
Upon your return from raping and crossbreeding 
Your own people accuse you of deceiving and misleading 
Causing mass confusion. Drug abusing 
Now you all caught up in institutions 
At this time you've got to break it down and be showing and proving 
An A&R told me that i use to many catch phrases 
true I'm trying to catch all my people in all different stages all 
different phases 

it's like that y'all...
