[Intro]
Yield up, O love, thy crown and hearted throne
To tyrannous hate!
Now, by yond marble heaven
In the due reverence of a sacred vow
I here engage my words
[Verse 1: Jus Allah]
This ain't rhymes, it's evil commands
From the demon you'll see again
When you're asleep in the sands
I'm all action, speak with my hands, crack a tree branch
Allah elevate to the peak of advance
Each line meditates so deep it's a trance
If I told you to hang yourself, you'd leap at the chance
When you hear Jus Allah, it's not a reason to dance
What you see is enhanced, what you believe in expands
This is serious shit, it's the eeriest lift
There's no aim, I just hate whatever I hit
Natural god, master in charge, battle the odds
Never stray far from the path of Allah's
You made up, slapped together and taped up
You fake fucks lay face up or you shape up
Soon as I spit it out, niggas wake up, epiphany
Black wizardry, God lacks mystery, God lags misery
Even if I have to kill every damn devil in Hell to get to victory
[Verse 2: Wise Intelligent]
I'm not your gangbanger, nine-to-nine crack slinger
Turn heavy-rotation rap-R&B singer
Fear nothing when I walk the street
Spare nothing when I talk the beats
I build a school where the gats blow
I mobilize black cashflow
I'm like Jay-slash-Castro
I'm Mister Revolution
I play the bully in a whip, a-leanin'
All praises do the lights meaning
Ghetto youth singing
And, when a nigga barely eatin'
I make a conscious move to keep the teachers
Kiss the son of slaves. I'm black roses on my mother's grave
It's time to turn another dolly page, behold the Book of Life
I raise the dead and give you hook the life
I shake the planet and produce gods
Call me the best Knower
My eyes reflect the youngest son of Noah
I'm so much more than just the average flower
Do the knowledge to me
I'm who your favorite MC tell his kids about
Then try to front like he ain't wipe me when my shit come out
[Verse 3: Sabac Red]
I shot fear in the face, cut off the head of ignorance
Slit the throat of racism, fought in the best with militants
My diligence equivalent to God book of messengers
Bookin' life safaris
I scar and torch your editor
Force competitors to felt what I speak
Call me an official god-force
I'm a descendant of Ephraim
Impeaching Presidents for people lacking the funds
Hijackin' Air Force One
Kidnap the first born son
Re-attack 'em with guns
They'll be stoppin' for fun
My energy has tendency to flee and blacken the sun
What's happenin', done
It seems you're afraid to rise up
Just a dream with no action
Spend your day with you eyes shut
Wise up, this is God, this is the wicked
Evil exists if you let it
Find this in the scriptures
I feel alive when I spit this
Pull a nine within inches
Of these snakes in the trenches
Got my eye on these bitches
This is a war of the minds, and I'm passed the scholar phase
Now a jealous phase like suicidal rage around the holidays
Follow him on this road before you're crippled and old
Freedom's a gold. the only thing that you sold
[Interlude]
Yield up, O love, thy crown and hearted throne
To tyrannous hate!
Now, by yond marble heaven
In the due reverence of a sacred vow
I here engage my words
[Outro: Reinaldo Arenas]
Todos mis amigos han sido chequeados y a veces obligados por la violencia y el chantaje a dar informes sobre mi persona
Mi correspondencia ha sido interceptada
Mis cuartos registrados centenares de veces
Mi obra ha sido interceptada por la policía
Y ahora mi vida misma corre en estos momentos un peligro inminente
El sistema ha utilizado cuantos medios posibles están a su alcance para aniquilarme
