lyrics

BRIDGE

Whatever you do alone it gives height,
whatever you do together it gives depths
the truths in mankind that man can’t accept
that we’re all here as one and we share one breath represent

VERSE 1

Twist the mind like a rubix dark as Anubis
we're divine rulers deeper than stab wounds from drug users thug shooters
like the ones who love and care are losers
sweating like tamascal threads that’s flushed fissure self hatred
that was strong enough to crush Luther
like astronomers plotting stars beyond the illest future
packaging pain for the consumer
while city living shamans at work inner wealth like Mansa Musa
plans to move to Cuba
Gods hands could take me sooner
I stand like obelisks in the face of all confusion
I talk with ghetto slang watch the way that I walk
Graffiti sprayed on the walls are hieroglyphs in my thoughts
burn the bush sacrilegiously as history taught
pissy floors spiral stair case up to my dorm
I’m politicking with street physicians I can endorse
the kind of system that rather leave you stiff like a corps
behind prison don’t wanna see my face in the source
I got conviction but not the thing they give you in court

CHORUS

It’s that dark rainbow light that comes from the soul
Thug angels rise with wings made of gold
as I hail my flight for God to take hold
I pray you bless me twice we all gotta go

VERSE 2

Divine calligraphy they wanna dress me in robes of infamy
souls that enter me are purified not an end to me
cold for centuries stones and cemeteries
for late greats like Gadhafi with Gold
to put an end to territories
one Africa continent with just liberty
I twist the herb in his memories cuz how he left is deep,
a motif to blow the mind out in your sheets
going deeper than Shamballa inner sun is my heat
rather I’ve seen many things you’ll only see in your dreams
everything full circle spin it back and repeat
Breathe in Breathe out
As I balance my chi
Malachi raised me on the sacred square now I’m at peace,
a messenger from heavens as I’m stepping I breathe
wielding fire in my right hand and ice in my reach,
it wasn’t me it was God decided I speak
dark rainbow light shining from my heart to the streets
