Behind The Stained Glass

Killah Priest Behind The Stained Glass Lyrics
1.I Believe

'In a matter, of a moment lost till the end of time
It's the evening of another day and the end of mine'

They counted me dead and finished
Though I never reached my limits
Alcohol and strange women
Sewer gave me tunnel vision
Sun will glisten in time
Humble listen for signs
His baby mother on his mind
Stressing him for every dime
Filed divorced, while in court
She smiled across, wildest thoughts
Child support, now I lost
And I'm like 'DAMN, why recourse'
Meanwhile no deal, cold meals
Flow still, it's so real

'Now the starlight which has found me lost for a million years
Tries to linger as it fills my eyes till it disappears'

Now I got my mojo back
Listen how I flow on tracks
Priest when opposed to rap
The devil be opposed to that
Blind faith lost my way
Many times, I often pray
Walking near where coffins lay
Names on them crossing graves
Or outlined in chalk on pave
Or an entrance to a court from a cage
The highway speeding like
I'm riding a Ducati bike
Finally I can see his light
Flying through a neon night
I could see beyond sight
Like Stevie on them keys of life
Playing for my freedom right
Esau called 'em Edomites
It's rare what you perceive as white
Dreads crush there weed in pipes
The head for the meteorite
It was you that gave me power
My first baby shower till I'm pushing up daisy flowers
Pull ups for eighty hours
Running to the mountain top
Like the man on the balcony shot
Know it was planned before Malcolm dropped
And I stand before them cameras pop
While his wife and family watch
Hatred of a man pray this cancer will stop

'In a matter, of a moment lost till the end of time
It's the evening of another day and the end of mine'

'Now the starlight which has found me lost for a million years
Tries to linger as it fills my eyes till it disappears'


2.4 Tomorrow

4 Tomorrow x4

The cargo ships rocking ocean tides
Their freedom watch from the open skies
Cried for his chosen tribe
The great Amistad wave goodbye
You'll never see her again
Currents of strong wind
Took niggas on the long ride
Naked have I came, naked should I leave?
This hell I see, I've written it in my form
So if my time calls you can press play like it's yesterday
It's been a decade since the best say (Heavy Mental)
Y'all hear 'em again, my serum's the pen
If death follows, so lie for now
The apostle, grace be unto you
Till the coming of shallow, I wrote this...

4 Tomorrow x3

What's sufficient for the ears?
Redemption is near
The hope of Christian, religion is listen but fear
This society put us back in bondage
Till we recall elements, living devilish in our conscious
We became monsters
Cause all we want is the chronic and some liquors
And tat on some scriptures and I miss my sister
Pictures haunts my mind, it turns realer
Look inside my memories mirror
Her-oin had an in-sedation, till she became an AIDS patient
Her last days she laid shaking
I stood by her grave waiting
For the preacher to finish his sentence
I dropped the rose in the hole then I left repented
It took part of my soul; turn my soft heart into stone
When I strike my chest it hurts my hand
Is our freedom even worth the plan?
The dope merchant glance
Then look back at the fiend like 'you heard the man'
Who wanna take a stand? Hopes are hollow
The adolescent hand chokes a bottle
No role models, wherever the streets leads he shall follow

4 Tomorrow x6

Let's see the future
This for the future man
Ha-ha, I want the future to hear me
I want everybody to realize
That when I sat and I wrote this
This was for...

He quickened my heart after the foolish women rip it apart
Swimming in a dark sea that was living with sharks
The last enemy to destroy his death, what's next?
Given the power, all things wicked will end an hour
The corruptible, must put on end corruption
All this and his destructions
God to men discussions, he looks at sin disgusting
Sky erupting when my pen is touching
Deliverance from this ignorance
Idiots or oblivious, it makes God furious
Surrender yourselves, ye members of hell
Offenders are given the jail
The devils agenda's to get in one self
All we wanted was help, the conomine is blind
The honorable is hard to find, there should be no sign
Liberty is defined, the spirit must be circumcised
It's deeper than just tribute time

4 Tomorrow(x12)


3.A Crying Heart

Yeah, yeah, my name is Priest
You know what it is man
Here me out there world
What you got on this man?
Big time we gotta get it
What's over there? I go it
Lock that!
Priesthood, knaw'mean?
It's real son, it's real son

I only fucks - with - what's - real

Led he who have sin, sin no more
Tired of kicking the door, shootouts, blood and gang wars
Chainsaws, tied up spouses, cocaine laws
Hawaiian outfits with SKs that bloodstain walls
Till you're losing ounces, niggas see the life that drug game
calls
You're crying fountains on the calls, saying, 'Please, she's
only four'
Pleading the merciless men that murder your kin
Sending you threats over the phone and they murder again
Now you either make the payments or funeral arrangement
Contemplating, federal building put their name in a statement
Poor choices, take this like the gem from the pearl of oysters
Still wet on my tongue, rep where you're from
And your boy just see real niggas respected
Deliver this message to the dumb and the deceased
We all from the streets, made they rest in peace
While I wreck this beat with techniques
Resurrect speech with flows are deep in soul
I tell Ms. Rahman, I'm sorry what happened that evening
But it was Tone; his name came up now we even
And Mr. James I wish I could change, but Todd
Shouldn't of did what he did, you can't blame Rob
And Ms. Stevens, what can I say? A close call
But it wasn't me you visit at the morgue
When they killed Spark that night, my heart went to the right
My chest got tight, that was a hard one to fight
Hood mysteries that no one could figure out
Plain and simple, facts were there
Going through packs of beer
Make me run to the roof; let the Mac off in the air
You was always strapped, gave me dap then threw up the pairs
Like yeah, I missed those years, I dish out tears
Strange dreams at night make me wish you was here
Tommy you should have watched your back
Instead he let them niggas plot and then form an attack
His shots echo, bounced off the building in the ghetto
Mass genocide, inner-city children of the barrel
And Mr. John, I did what I did 'cause of revolution
You're damn near sixty, may you lay next to Newton
The dollar bill, 'In God We Trust'
Does God stand for Guns, Oil, & Drugs they gave to us?

I only fucks - with - what's - real

It's project living regardless revolvers are spitting
When drama is lit, guns will get clipped, the mission
No bottles were ribbing, just hollows from Henchmen
Hell swallows us, death follows up
Bullet shells, toddlers get bucked
Black male role models are fucked
The little girls promised the world but tomorrow turn sluts
You either playing basketball or pushing crack in the hall
Or either rap or getting macs out the board
Now what's that, white supremacists?
No rights for immigrants (no rights)
Life imprisonment, some get life sentences
Secret indict, whites swapping with businessmen
We fight militant, keepers of words they're writing Genesis
Black paintist Rome-like the images
This goes to the judges and the senators

I only fucks - with - what's - real


4.Hood Nursery

You cheated
Hood Nurseries
You cheated
I ain't playing with you no more
Can't run that far
What you mean you can't run that far?
Nah let's play another game, stick your feet in
Hood Nursery, let's count, I'm about to count
I got my feet in
Uh!, buzzing
Ok, let me count
It goes

It goes eeny, meeny, miny, moe
Catch a dealer with his blow
If he squeals we let 'em go
Tax his silly, penny blow
Niggas, spics, grab your nines
Cops is rolling down our lines
Sell your blow, get off the track
Hide your doe and flush your crack
Change your clothes, dump your gats
Stay on your toes, watch your back
And the officer picked this thug right over here
One grenade, two bananas, three hammers, four
Five vests, six bullets, now we want war
In the inner-city bang-bang, he laid behind the fence
Trying to blow his nine at sixteen Crips
'I'm hit, I'm hit' he yell to his clique
But they're busy running so they finish off the clip
Red rag, blue rag, one two three
Pants sag, du-rag, guns on me
Don't raid me, old lady
Give me that money and then we're free

Hood Nurseries

You ain't, hey I don't wanna play no more
You caught me man, you was me first
Hood Nurseries
Man I don't care
Yo, nah man, let's play another game
Hood Nurseries
Ok, my feet is in, my feet is in
Hood Nurseries
Yo, we ain't gotta play with the feet
Hood Nurseries
Put your hands in, put your hands in
I got another game, here it goes
Hood Nurseries

Mirror, mirror on the wall; who was the livest of them all?
What's this dude doing in my hood?
Who did he shoot? Who was his war?
Bodies laying, shotty's spraying
Daddy is drinking, mommy is praying
Caddy's, Lincolns, I'm up in the A.M.
Streets is mayhem, cops is aiming at our playgrounds
Looks like a grave now
I'm out in a Greyhound
Gotta escape this life in the cages
With hundreds outrageous
It's all about papers, going out of state 'cause
Cop, thieves and hustlers, welfare in numbers
That's all we play, that's all we know
That's all we have, nah it's your God


Nah I'm not playing with you no more
Hood Nurseries
Ahhaha, yeah, yo we gotta make it out of this hood man
Hood Nurseries
Hood Nurseries
These games are kinda making me scary
Hood Nurseries

Paddywagon, paddywagon police man
Coming down our block we ran fast as we can
This young man lived in the slums
Tired of living poor till he picked up his gun
And went 'click-clack' 'Rat-at-tat'
Hit the cop in his dome
Now the officer is laying in the tombstone

Yo, I got another game, yo

Hood Nurseries
Yo, listen y'all ever play
Da-da-don't-shoot?
Hood Nurseries
Da-da-don't-shoot
Let's play
Hood Nurseries
Well let's do it
Play again
Hood Nurseries
We start of by playing freeze tag
Hood Nursery
Hood Nurseries
But in the end you'll get a toe tag
Hood Nurseries
Let Priest tell it
Hood Nurseries
No you it, no you it
Hood Nurseries
Why is that cop looking at us like that?
Hood Nurseries
I don't know
Hood Nurseries
We can't play these games no more
We getting older y'all
We getting older
We can't play these games no more
Let's just stop


5.Redemption

This is my redemption
And the angel saw
This is my redemption
And the angel saw
This is my redemption
Hallelujah
And the angel saw
This is my redemption
Hallelujah
This is my redemption
Hallelujah
This is my redemption
And the angel saw
This is my redemption
And the angel saw

This is my redemption
And the angel saw
This is my redemption
And the angel saw
This is my redemption
And the angel saw
This is my redemption
And the angel saw
This is my redemption
And the angel saw

Post not against the natural branches
But if thy boast that bare is not the good root
That the Lord has planted
You who will rule the planet
For if the first fruit be holy
The lump is also holy
The roots and the whole tree
And thy will grafted in amongst them
Being while olive trees
I'm looked as he trunks them
I see the strange fruit hiding in your leaves
Idolatry, tricked knowledge's, their policy
My souls be set on fire
I rose from the depths from liars
Breath of Elijah
Never the less be full of joy and comfort
To the worldly things and out with things and conquered
Strange women and parties and alcohol
I devour them all
And gave 'em back when I heard my call
'Cause I felt you there
You had my back when no one else cared
It's like a flare burning in mid air
All I could do is stare
I feel something in my system
It's more than a rhythm
It's just a voice calling me back to redemption
I'm walking over heated coals
Like Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego
This life's eternal, I write my journal
If y'all could feel this
Feel something touching my spirit
I see the clearest that I ever seen
This must be what heaven means

This is my redemption
And the angel saw
This is my redemption
And the angel saw
This is my redemption
Hallelujah
This is my redemption
Hallelujah
This is my redemption
Hallelujah
This is my redemption
And the angel saw
This is my redemption
And the angel saw
This is my redemption
And the angel saw
This is my redemption

Wait till I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
And my buckles where my barrel is kept
But I don't need it anymore, it's pure
Devotion I saw, I'm hoping he open this door
Remember not to transgression of my youth
But witness my grand presence; God made me new
The patience, the aching, the praying
Long suffering, the dedication, the new creation
To my adversaries that I would of had buried
It's not necessary, the old things become new
And this is true, straight out the blue
My spirit is renewed
Out of body experience what's my options?
The adoptions, the glory, the covenant
The giving of his judgment, the government
The service, the promise, and the fathers
And that shall cover it for Israel

This is my redemption
And the angel saw
This is my redemption
And the angel saw
This is my redemption
Hallelujah
And the angel saw
This is my redemption
Hallelujah
This is my redemption
Hallelujah
This is my redemption
And the angel saw
This is my redemption
And the angel saw
This is my redemption
And the angel saw

Having to abolishing their flesh, amity
And the Lord has slained all my enemies
I live for centuries
All of them make mockery of the prophecies
That's the devil's psychology
I'm on top while they bottle feed
No longer strangers and foreigners
But fellow citizens of his lineage
Ghettos missing this
I can not peak, why? 'Cause the Lord have no limits

The meek shall inherit the Earth
And the rich will perish the world
And the Saints will rejoice over herd
When she's swallowed up under the Earth
For the meek shall inherit the Earth
And the rich will perish the world
And the Saints will rejoice over herd
When she's swallowed up under the Earth


6.Profits Of Man

Even Kings die, thrones rust
Skeleton bones turn to dust
Memories are blown into gust
It's about how you live when you were here
How you celebrated those years
Were you a follower? Did you try elevating your peers?
Were you sincere when you gave the prophets your ears?
But soon the struggle come you disappear
Listen here were you real?
Did you show love that people could feel?
Did you have jealousy but keep it concealed?
Did you smile at your man's face?
But all awhile wanted to take your man's place
Moving around like a snake
I know you hate that term, don't call it that
Seen that lately that's why the Priest been falling back
'Cause when the Revolution start
All those cliques that fall apart will soon be the devil's mark
And none the adversary will have a heart
The letter from Priest, my freedom of speech
Y'all read 'em and weep
The demons that keep you from the path just laugh
That's my ink pads looks like Stained Glass
A collage of art, that show scenes from the Nazarene's past

From my connections with 60 Second
The Art of War to in the city - signed to Geffen
For five-percent lessons, Israelite tribal dressing
Disciple Armageddon's, that Bible record
To Sunz of Man to damn near becoming one of the Clan
Members I remember, in Brooklyn, GZA and Masta Killa
To my last chapters with the RZA
Testimony stops, Old Dirty got knocked
Came home and signed with the ROC
Cocaine combined with rocks
Rick James style, his nicknames 'Wild; Old Dirt Dog'
It hurt us all when his hearse disappeared in the fog
I stayed digital, never analog, original
Always camouflaged, turn them cameras off
Light those candles God, I'm the example
Like I'm speaking from panels y'all
The soul inside of me is fiery, society lied to me
They said 'You gotta die to be free'
My diaries of anxiety frightens me
Light will squeeze through my crack buildings where my writing
be
Striking my page with hyphens and brighten my T's
To my seeds - the uncivilized time has come
Y'all better run, the time has begun

Yo, from total strangers to best friends
To best friends to brothers
From brothers to never calling him again
Their coffins descend, one flies to a place of peace
The other Lake of Fire, devils hauling you in
As one began one ends, the Earth still spin
We're hurt, tears in our shirt, spirit must transcend
What you think sleep is for?
A deeper cause - preparing us
For the other side till the Reaper calls
Either or, we're breathing for try a reason
Arrived rich but we're leaving poor
Stand naked when you see the Lord
I stand protected when I see his war
Till I exit and I'm free to soar
I'm embraced by space, though it's cloudy around me
His light weighs from a tree till they wither the brown leaves
Bounty's of blessings, from my heavy mind (Heavy Mental)
To every rhyme I said, looking from Masada (View from Masada)
From the Church of Priest, the dark August (Priesthood + Black
August)
Till he showed you the art on his Offering (The Offering)
Oops, I call it the gift, Behind the Stained Glass
It's a frame of my pad, I started this
Release the toxins, breathe out the oxygen
Now see how shocking you fools if you think the Saint will lose
I say things that will make the picture and the paintings move
Now after this ink this jewel, look!

What profits that man?
Who would gain the whole world yet lose his soul
What profits that man?
Somebody tell me
What profits that man?
Somebody tells me
What profits that man?
Who would fear his enemy and think he didn't exist
What profits that man?
Somebody tell me
What profits that man?
Somebody tell me
Somebody tell me
If you can
What profits that man?
Who would gain the whole world but lose his soul
What profits that man?
What profits that man?
What profits that man?
The way the good and evil could never balance equal
And no man, for no man could be both good and evil
From skills that are strange to each other
And skills to one way or the other
Even into one grain that'll strip us
If you've done evil, then I guess you're missing it
It'll be the over-taker, the architecture
What I could build will kill


7.The World

What we're living in
What we use to
The whole damn world
What we're living in
What we're living in
What we're living in
The whole damn world
What we're living in
What we're living in
What we're living in
The whole damn world
What we're living in
What we're living in
What we're living in
The whole damn world
What we're living in
What we're living in
What we're living in
The whole damn world
Yes we're living in
Yes we're living in
Yes we're living in
Yes we're living in
Yes we're living in
Yes we're living in
Yes we're living in

(So what we live by?)
The laws of the most high
(Moses?) Yes!
He received that on Mount Sinai
(For the Israelites right?)
Indeed, 'cause man once believed in other Gods
They received the sun, moon and stars
(From the Egyptians?)
Yeah they were enslaved over there
For over 400 years of hard labor and tears
What a coincidence (Almost the same time?)
Yep! Black people had spent over here
Which brings me to this important fact
The ancient Israelites were black!
(If we keep his laws and study his commandments
We can chase the devil right off of our planet
If we don't lie, hate or kill one another
Boys obey your fathers, girls obey your mother)
And this is law

Sing along children
Sing along
Priest!

(Now there's Cain)
Who killed Abel over jealousy
And this been going on for centuries
(So who is he?)
Your Condoleezza's, your Oprah Winfrey's
(And who is that?)
Michael Jordan, your Muhammad Ali's
(Tell us more about Esau)
And Jacob, sure
Want to hear more? (Yeah!)
Well they were twins in Rebekah's womb
And they were fighting
(Fighting for what?) For more room
I guess, so she suggest, she should ask the Lord
So she prayed, while her husband Jacob snored
And she was told: 'These two kids should be two nations
From the womb they shall be separated
The one shall be stronger then the other
(But they were brothers)
And one loved by the father
The other by the mother'
And look deep in the story you will discover
(The mysteries)
The first kid was hairy and red; he was a hunter
Sold his birth right because of hunger
The second child was a cool peaceful brother
His skin resemble his father and mother
Nutting more to explain
Let's say later on in the chapters their names changed
And nothing ever stays the same
Good night!

Dedicated to one of the greatest emcees ever
Slick Rick; I love you brother
(Hosea 4, Verse 6)
I'm out, G-Sciples
Good night!
(Read Hosea 4, Verse 6)
G-Sciples
(Read Hosea 4, Verse 6)


8.Vintage (Things We Share)

One more time, uh, yeah
Magnetic, uh, Priesthood
Godz Wrath (Behind the Stained Glass)

Let the Earth bring forth grass
The herb mule sees the fruit fall from trees
Working daily are the honey bees
Then all kinds came up abundantly
And everybody in the jungle free
But times change, now is guns that squeeze
Crime family smuggle ki's
USA is a large company ran by quiet societies
Privately the hood diaries of Brooklyn killers in the '80s
Harlem was heaven, project legends
Supreme had Queens; the Bronx was repping
Then the west Coast let go
With gang-banging, the game changed then
With 'Batman' and Raymond Washington
The streets are watched with gun
No cops will come, what block you from?

Our ancestors brought from Africa on slave ships
Now return in the air with first class trips
Passenger six, window seat, relax I'm viewing the fish
The trees, the seas are blue like the jewels on my fist
From the Islands of Costa Rica we share that same light
Children play with marbles of gold, return the plight
We share the same light; we share that same life

We were enslaved 'cause our color
Look in the Bible page and you'll discover
The real reason why we suffered
We fit the prophecies and Deuteronomy
They took the true Jewish colonies
And brought 'em to a new economy
Through Willie Lynchings philosophies and brutality
And through poverty we lost a new moralogy
Once in tuned with the galaxies
Now we only see user weed astrology
We took up a blunt culture
Lost memories, last night fights from being hung-over
Young soldiers become sober
DEUTERONOMY 28, VERSE 28 will set the record straight
It states: 'that he will struck us with madness and blindness
Confusion, no power or refinement, no movement'
Now take a look around at our environment
Drugs supplying, gun firing
While the president is hiding
And we admire them, white police patrol there
But they don't leave near
Said they don't care who gets killed here
Or confine to a wheelchair
Our ignorance made them billionaires
VERSE 29 says: 'we will be exploited on our long voyage
Unemployment for their enjoyment
No longer called the anointed'
But COONS niggas and SPOOKS
From BOJANGLES, JIGGA to SNOOP
These Deuteronomic Codes exposed
I'll dishonor and rose
VERSE 30: 'I will sin you and your king
To a nation that neither you or your fathers have known'
THE VALLEY OF DRY BONES

Our ancestors brought from Africa on slave ships
Now return in the air with first class trips
Passenger six, window seat, relax I'm viewing the fish
The trees, the seas are blue like the jewels on my fist
From the Islands of Costa Rica we share that same light
Children play with marbles of gold, return the plight
We share the same light; we share that same life


9.Looking Glass

Uh, looking inside my book
Uh, one time, uh 4th Disciple
Uh KP, dimes, uh, in the looking glass
Live for everything, when I open up my book
None for nutting knaw'mean?
Seeing the looking glass

Life and Death is like a carnival in cemeteries
Ain't nobody left that's honorable they all been buried
The Chronicles, from Muhammad's schools to Gods name vary
Black people are the promised Jew's 'cause we lost already
My cross is heavy, I carry it - this is my burden
Looking the sky see chariots, that's why the Earth is just
burning
The worst is determined, by the birth of a person or of a
hurting
Soul searching, I go to the sermon of elder Gerry Burns
Life is a failure, my worries return
I know cats who could of went pro
Wasn't born with a silver spoon to his mouth
But put a silver spoon to his nose
He was nice in football but every time the hood call he would go
The projects is like the insane asylum, full of gangs and
violence
Pain and problems, heavy rain I hear violence
At funerals, it's the usual explain this knowledge

Every time I look and close my eyes
My mind I can see the end of time
Looking at the world is so divine
While I'm starring through my looking glass

Every time I look and close my eyes
My mind I can see the end of time
Looking at the world is so divine
While I'm starring through my looking glass

The pastor, the preachers, wives and widows open they purses
Throwing dollars hoping one day they meet Jehovah in person (The
Lord)
Miracles of man who can't walk leaps out of his chair
Saw the same man a week before walk up his stairs
An old lady who can't hear, she just stare
Showing no facial expression
She's a victim of racial oppression
Her grandkids she pray Angels protect 'em
A knock at the door; 'It's agents and detectives'?
Your kids were hit by a stray (Oh Lord!)
Another dollar got to find a better way
Another day, another lesson, like stressing
Dice games, liquor stores and pool halls
Money on the table, spot that Q-ball (Rack 'em up)
Winner takes all, now rack 'em
The nine ball symbolizes the planets
The last ones to get the black one
To get 'em you have to crack 'em
Listen to this understanding
Absorb is more than just gambling

Every time I look and close my eyes
My mind I can see the end of time
Looking at the world is so divine
While I'm starring through my looking glass

Every time I look and close my eyes
My mind I can see the end of time
Looking at the world is so divine
While I'm starring through my looking glass

Remember W.D. Fard Muhammad
The prophet that gave Elijah his knowledge
Elijah gave it to Malcolm
But on their way to the promise they ran into problems
And only two death they resolved
From the Mosque to the school up in Harlem
'Cause Clarence X left started his own set
Gave a new breath of fresh air to the projects
With ah Supreme Arithmetic's
Young kings got hip to the devils tricks
But in '69 the God got hit
But you can still hear 'em when Poppa Wu parts his lips
And there was Dr. Malachi Z. York with deep thought
Called himself: 'The Lamb' 'The Nuwaubian' 'Godly Men'
Built his own Egypt on the top of the sand
Then there's Yahweh Ben Yahweh, called down UFOs
All these men the U.S. know
It's like our mind deteriorated when drugs came in
And it took us back to the Cavemen

Every time I look and close my eyes
My mind I can see the end of time
Looking at the world is so divine
While I'm starring through my looking glass

Every time I look and close my eyes
My mind I can see the end of time
Looking at the world is so divine
While I'm starring through my looking glass

Uh-huh, world wide G-Sciples
Yo Rest in Peace
To Allah Sun on the hook baby
He was never buried he was only planted
'Cause we're gonna grow from this


10.I Am

I was born like that
I live like that
Feel me?
Free, so let it be
I Am... King
Transform the God
Of who? Of me

I was born like that
I live like that
Feel me?
Free, so let it be
I Am... King
Transform the God
Of who? Of me

If I could write my own obituary
I tell of things I've seen and heard
I'll admit not a bit was scary
'Cause it was real so I'll feel no remorse
For those who try to crucify me then kneel to my cross
Why do women love to come in my life then leave?
Then hate the way I talk
He tries to walk righteously
They listen to their friends
My sins, my short comings
Impregnated your thoughts with their nonsense
When all of them have lost husbands
Wives have trials, try to save lives
Life and death is in the hands of what you feed the family
Think of poisoning the God? Then plea to insanity
Nah, Satan you a liar, internal fire
The life eternal of things that concerns the writer
The brighter inferno of ring that make the sky light up
We're bound by honor, we're bound law
What I found is armor, his word is the saw
Heard by all but felt by few
Before I make a cause, my inner self I view
If Corinthians is correct, gave you the respect
Not the jealousy of the next couple trouble of steps
Let's cuddle to death

I was born like that
I live like that
Feel me?
Free, so let it be
I Am... King
Transform the God
Of who? Of me

I was born like that
I live like that
Feel me?
Free, so let it be
I Am... King
Transform the God
Of who? Of me

My manifestation came when you were hand to hand with Satan in
reign
My crown rolled upon the ground, I'm slained, drizzling rain
Wait, my drilling done came
Still in the game, I rose like Neo
Behold, meet me in the sequel
For the people the soaring eagle, fall like the evil
Divinity sentence me, infinity, imagery scenes seen when I dream
My genes is like that of a King but that energy leaves
Like a spiral of Bibles, going up it's Jacob's Ladder
God break up my matter
Spiritual body is formed, so long, stop trying to hold on
Appear in white and gone like a snowstorm
Belove it, be not ignorant of this one thing
A day with the Lord is a thousand years
Yards of blood, miles in tears, clouds turn clear
I'm finally there
My mind's prepared to climb those stairs to my destiny
My cubic body set it free; the spirit alone let it be
I got my weaponry; secondly my certain plain is heavenly
The unexplained is shown of me, the mysteries, the thrones
I'm giving keys to the bottomless pit
Solomon whits, the obvious man will marvel at this

I was born like that
I live like that
Feel me?
Free, so let it be
I Am... King
Transform the God
Of who? Of me

I was born like that
I live like that
Feel me?
Free, so let it be
I Am... King
Transform the God
Of who? Of me

I Am


11.The Beloved (The Messenger)

Peace Almighty I'm gracious
Most benevolent speaker
The beloved brother spoke on this occasion
Do we all suffer from the Caucasian?
Non-cipher look at our own coordination
We lost coordination, sisters started free basing
Brothers stop the self hating
We need some reevaluating
Some growing up, stop the handout
Stop holding the cup
You think we was old enough
Peep these jewels while you're rolling your dutch
Brothers having a form of godliness
But disregarding their kids
What kind of God do you think you is?
Man you are how you live
Yeah, you know 1-20
But he has a home in the city
Reason why you're on the phone from Poughkeepsie
We follow every rely-on
Put it together, we free our mind storms
Brainwashing, CBS is watching
Television Evangelist grants you a wish
Their modern therapist for the devil's pit
Designs for the ghettos to fit
On the top of the federal list
Now tell me who hell is this?
Rebels throw up your fist

We all born sinners
On the corners with them law offenders
To get it all is a court agenda
Everything is real, no false pretenders
But wild days past time flies
Minutes flash, the mind dies
Bigger graves, New York Times
Chalk lines, the thought's blind
Christ is on your enemies head
'Cause nowadays dudes got bread to make you disappear
So that goes for your fist in the air
Angela Davis or Jesse Jackson
Affirmative Action, you burn or the casket
Let your moms know before you go
Ghettos the ball in the chain, it's all the same
And heroin spoon fall into flame
Right before it dissolve in the vein
We're scared to read the scriptures
'Cause they don't act like your niggas
But even the Messiah will crucify between two thieves
They come for me spray Uzi's

Excuse me Priest?
Priest can I talk to you for a minute?
My name is Tiffany from Stained Glass Television
Can I ask you a question about the Black Market Militia
And your beef with the industry?
What's up with this album calling it I Am Ra's Child?
Who are you talking about in Profits of a Man?


12.Jeshurun

We will shine in his presence
The truthful - when we find all his blessings
The power - we shall receive
Yahwu - eternity
The judgment - is coming swiftly
The kingdom - the golden city
That mission - fire and brimstone
Freedom - no more hate 'cause our skin tone

What if you found out everything you've been told was a lie
And the only way to find out the truth was to go inside yourself
And no one to provide you with help
Would you reach for that nine in your belt?
Or go get the rifle from you shelf
Put the barrel to your mouth and blow your own brains out
Or do you want a second to figure this whole thing out?
What if I told you nothing is really what it appears to be
You wouldn't believe me
Cause you a program from reality
Little fluffy bears, little cute lions
Thanksgiving Day, the underworld alliance
Secret societies, the brotherhood system
You can only join as a client
Spy satellite dishes, Christmas, the protocols of Zion
Science they stole from the Mayans
What if you found out the man in the pic
Posing as Jesus was really Cesare - Borgia
Would you do some study on that?
And would you really care?
What if you found out that the United States was a business
That's why they never address the president as the president of
America
Would you go in mass hysteria?
But the president of a corp like your boss
Your corp is named United States
Would you unite or separate?
So who's the presidents of Americans?

Glory - we shall shine in his presence
The truthful - when we find all his blessings
The power - we shall receive
Yahwu - eternity
The judgment - is coming swiftly
The kingdom - the golden city
That mission - fire and brimstone
Freedom - no more hate 'cause our skin tone
It's coming - with angels with swords
The fallen - shall be my war
For us - Jeshurun
For us - Jeshurun

From ashes to skull and bone
Bone to flesh, back to life, back to breath
Out of the dark came the light
And out of the life back to death
We all gotta go, it's the inevitable
Like the meek humble, good in heart
Inheriting the Merrill Lynch, fuck the sharing
We want America for vacation spot
Gracious opt, mansions in Morocco
Vatos, no more potholes
We sell the pacific, terrific ain't it
Known nation wide we famous for the ink pen paintbrush
Cause animals ain't us
We the royal family, lost tribes in Egypt
Fell victim to the vanity
No different from the cameras we be in
Damaging the man and your sin is the end result
Diminishing even though we need the benjamins
Balance is the key, I'm ready for a dominion y'all
I'm finished man

Glory
The truthful
The power - we shall receive
Yahwu - eternity
The judgment - is coming swiftly
The kingdom - the golden city
That mission - fire and brimstone
Freedom - no more hate 'cause our skin tone
It's coming - with angels with swords
The fallen - shall be my war
For us - Jeshurun
For us - Jeshurun


13.God's Time

My pen's a microscope
Beneath this lens show real life I wrote
From all my sins to my righteous quotes
I look within and realize there's hope
I begin to cringe, struck by lightning bolts
From out of brims I saw Michaels bow
The angel'll sin just like a ghost
I begin to cleanse, speak under the Bible's oath
And when I end how many mics I broke?
Begin to live the words Christ has spoke
They're losing the friends desired most
The half-less mind, their chance to shine
They blast that nine, that glass of wine
They handed me insanity
Vanity families of humanity
Stay with me through calamities
The dark skies have electric fields
See the will within will, impregnable skills
Thousands of volts from post lasers
Nonlinear optics behind quasars
Within the triple stages of dark there's a black stars
Around the universal cosmic, lost Nassau's
Somewhere there you'll find my raps but only head bars
We gave the devil his time, now rebel in the mind
The ghettos designed to keep us, sleep us
The grim reaper meet us, poor education
We explore revelation
War of the nations, claw of the pagans
Washington white Shaitan
See the mission through man made religion
And the flaw of Masons

The money and wealth - you'll ugly yourself
The hungrier I felt with nothing to feed me
Streets will mislead me
Where the eyes are greedy
I vibe on CDs, his eyes on TVs
The cause of justice and missing no expectation
No interpretation, I'm cold with vexation
My soul is erect waiting, recreation
With mind and spirit combined let's feel this
It's time we hear this
Mind is sheer bliss from being rebellious
Overzealous or too jealous, make us failures
Mistakes from elders from being careless
God help us; Satan held us for decades
Time to cross over to the next phase
The atheist is amazed at this
Awaketh thou slug it, why covet thy brother
Consider the ant that gives it to the plant
The plant gives to them
So be it to all men

The devil trembles when he knows the body is the temple and God
is in you
It's hard to continue when it's hard to offend you
He starts to set traps, that have you setback
The last round in this death match
So strengthen where you're best at
I promise you won't regret that
Was I regarded as Job? Or should I take the carpenter's role?
It's dark in this hole, that's as far as it goes
Harps of gold, impossible, pot as a rose
Remarkable soul, the resistance, instincts intakes a poisons
The devil's enjoyment is so annoying
Exploiting, morally destroying
Around a flag their serpent's calling
My spirit's boiling, it's simple
If we sin don't do it again, ask for forgiveness
This privilege saves us from max in their prison
Attraction of wisdom, not this plastic system
The faction - we victims
The aspen is venom, relax and it's your ending
Families deprived of their lives
The archives, lost tribe, pork rinds
But it's a new era, a new beginning
A new ending, a new time, only a few inches
We getting closer, you choose, you make a decision
No collision, turn off the television
The hell in women eyes, and males we like we failed the mission
It's disciplince, militance, no tolerance for the ignorance
We live again, refuse to lose, spark minds it's God Time
Every bond his line, the stars aligned
Turn on the searchlight, see we the owners of the birthright
Reverse the curse like, we sold the drugs that's old to us
Let's get what's owed to us, what's really owed to us?
We bust the guns when we was young
Now it's change a higher plain, the sky is in my range
The third I'll have wings

14.Born To Die

I'm a live, I'm gonna live, I'm a fly, I'm, gonna fly
I'm a live, I'm gonna live, I'm a fly, I'm, gonna fly

'Whosoever therefore humble themself as this little child'
(Matthew 18:4)
The same as the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven
Wheeze on the ledge and felt his way home, he sings with his
brethrens
Flapping away through the air, white and seems like the
pheasants
But supreme in his presence, a king in his essence of woe
Unto the world because are office is corrupt
And false just' broke peace we brought the beast amongst us
Grief of a hustler, beef between brothers, the reaper we suffer
There's cancer inside, we eat off each other
Growing in us like a tumour, false rumours.
Up at the tree like a puma on the night of a lunar
We fight here comes the ghouls of out we live and you die
They sent the apes into space
To plant new life for the lead of only one race
The gun chase make our sons erase, some deteriorate
Evaporate from flesh to spiritual bodies
The masters of fate, still clash us with fate
And mirrors are godly, pardon me

I'm a live, I'm gonna live, I'm a fly, I'm gonna fly
I'm a live, I'm gonna live, I'm a fly, I'm gonna fly

Ever seen me fly, that's me
Ever seen me cry, I see
The dreams of a land I, I need
Four reasons to jam rock, I mean
Poor reasons the more breathing
The more achieving, the more believing
Then the more reaching, I mean
Usual cats stay forth eating
Put a plan together, couple of meals together now they all
eating

So, 'Take heed that ye despise not one of these little one
For I say unto you that in Heaven and their angels do always
Behold the face of the Father which is in heaven' (Matthew
18:11)
And 'The Son of Man is coming, save those which is lost, '
(Matthew 18:11)
Wild let that saviour thoughts
This is a force of movement of blueprint of the true prince
We're the remnants of true Israelite descendents
We all kindred's, cross out you mimics
Follow the lineage of Genesis, to the prisoners, to all my
listeners
Remember my affliction to my sister's addiction
To my spirit conviction, to my sister conditions
To my soul collisions, to my sister's soul submission
I'm here baby girl and through me ye still living
Feel me

I'm a live, I'm gonna live, I'm a fly, I'm gonna fly
I'm a live, I'm gonna live, I'm a fly, I'm gonna fly


15.O Emmanuel (Zoom)

From her womb I went zoom
Through a misty gloom pass the moon
Through a gape in deep space
Finally I had room
To create, I shift shape
A single thought brought me through warps
I transport to a spiritual land but not loss
A strange cause
I circle the well driven by force
I lit up the night with light
Become one with the light source
Just a like a hawk, with black wings
Black as the night, flapping
I go up, the stardust left in my trails
From a strong thrust
I felt the rush blowing through a gust
1200 spirits flying out of me
I see an odyssey
There was Enoch, Elijah, Emmanuel
The man with nails
Through his hands and feet
Blessed the meek
I felt asleep in the deep, couldn't speak
When I awoke, still a ghost
Still afloat, Assyrian folks I see starring at me
24 elders called the 'Lord helpers'
Behind them were many more in white they all held doves
6 on the left, 6 on the right
Now let the 12 judge
Books were opened, I looked at golden throne
For them that was chosen
I looked again, catacombs
I see scattered bones before this chapter close
Let me break it down for ya
Enoch represented that the black man is in us
Elijah meant the sun fire
That's why he was taken higher
Emmanuel showed us the black man's hell
This white man's jail is their heaven
Wait on the seventh
I'm a show you where we're heading

I'm a show you where we're heading
And I'm a show you where we're heading

Enoch, Elijah, Emmanuel

Hero Emmanuel
Hero Emmanuel
Bring his captives home
Bring his captives home
Bring back the remnant of Israel
Bring back the remnant of Israel

I heard the missile go 'Ka-boom'
Saw the clouds like a mushroom
The whole planet in such doom
The Egyptian's opened up King Tut's tomb
Kawasaki went 'Vroom'
My spirit outta body
Nail Cheselden Anunnaki, Godly
Eloi, Eloi, ah, Eli, Eli, rise
Seven plain, the unexplained
I don't change
Their continents were like lightning
The pyramids were like the Mayans
Beyond the Orion
Star followed by the Three Wise Men
Flying in the spiritual Zion
The Constellation showed the lion
The dawn to the horizon - their eyes on
And the angel has said 'Come with us
You need rest, where there's no height, no depth
There's no weeping, no-no death
No-no bone, no-no flesh
No blood, no-no sweat
Can't enter all except thy Holiness'

There's no weeping, no-no death
No-no bone, no-no flesh
No blood, no-no sweat
Hero Emmanuel
Hero Emmanuel
Bring his captives home
Bring his captives home
Bring back the remnant of Israel
Bring back the remnant of Israel

From now on these men will revolve
Around you like the planets around the sun


16.The End Is Comming (Bonus)

Are we speeding up the highways of life?
No hazard lights on, never stopping for gas
Never to think what we did wrong
Those freeway signs say we passed, says:'Slow Down'
But you on the road now
You see the accident; you figured you'll go around
So without your signal lights on you switch lanes
Into the other dude's path in the past we had big names
Radio on the forecast said there's black clouds and thick rain
Somehow you think of the cat you blasted in the past
'Thick Cash' was his nickname; we all brought up in hard luck
Elevators with beer bottle and piss stains
Or was it the ice in the mixture of the liquor
That made you sleep with your wife's sister
Or was it the emblem lights that made you see the bright picture
You wake up; the horn's blowing, the engine running
The next sign up the road reads: 'The End Is Coming'

'The End Is Coming'
'The End Is Coming'
'The End Is Coming'
'The End Is Coming'
'The End Is Coming'
'The End Is Coming'

So you put your hand back on the key, you turn the ignition
Taking off at full speed, a rider's ambition
Caught an empty bottle Tequila in the passenger seat
Glance up in the rear view mirror start patting your cheeks
Gotta stay awake, all the alcohol got you falling asleep
All the poisonous toxins your body absorbed in a week
Look in the same mirror again
See all your so called friends sitting behind you
And that remind you
Of all your mother's words that you was blind to
You lose control over your wheel
You begin to swerve beyond the lines and almost blew
Your tires, bad news for the driver
Your heart's racing fast, there's no off ramp for you to get gas
Just a dark crooked path, you pray patrol lights flash
But when you look through the glass your whole life pass
You see a sign up ahead, it's the toll
On the other side is the crossroad
The croak lady smiles, mother something
She said up ahead the accident one miles says:
'The End Is Coming'

'The End Is Coming'
'The End Is Coming'
'The End Is Coming'
'The End Is Coming'

The forming nature of man was designed as God planned
Till it was destroyed from the fruit from one hand
Then we built a fruit stand
A life reduction, reluctant to get sucked in
Our luck ends in the cuffs to the pens
Then there's a prayer discussions
Angels or devils, tough decision
When an narcotic is doing most of the discussion with us
Thank goodness we came to the status of a relic
Affectionately regarded, it's true
But it's irrelevant to our times
Devilishment fill our minds
And not to glorify it, 'cause I side with the righteous
It brings out life best in abundance
Dice bets up in the hundreds
Gamble with death, the price is set for us to be hunted
But what did the streets do for us?
But kill all of us, the morgue or the bus?
You lose your life or doing life
You decide tonight, (You come to a toll)

'The End Is Coming'
'The End Is Coming'
'The End Is Coming'
'The End Is Coming'
'The End Is Coming'
'The End Is Coming'
'The End Is Coming'
'The End Is Coming'
'The End Is Coming'

Just when you grab on to the wheel
When you're driving over will
It's man's will
It's not an actual call will
And your drive is what drives you
The motivation, understand that
Understand this road -
That we're up is a crossroads
We have to make a decision
And know 'The End Is Coming'
'The End Is Coming'
