Verse 1:
Yeah
O Savant
Listen to me
I'm soul brother number
7 son of Fela the game's new
Stevie Wonder
O Savant there's no sleep or slumber, I feast on beats
Plus eat your lunch up
Cadence
Clarity
Dexterity
I flex lyrically catch you cats spiritually
Hold up, I don't think they hear me
Listen
Y'all don't know my status
In ya basements tryna quote my madness
Dope for addicts addicted to cooked coke and crack it's
Not needed black folks so just pass it
These dudes making beats on Acid
What the hell our babies on acid?
That's backward
Listen
I'm a reenactment of
The era where a brother made classic stuff
That's what's up
To the Philly jawns in the back what's
Up
When the rhythm hit em they'll be actin' up
The illuminated on the track get up lend ya ear to the
Seer out of Africa 'cause
O'hene got soul
These dudes humor me
All they wanna talk about is jewelry
Tom foolery
Not true emcees like it used to be
Black face rat race straight coons to me
Plus musically y'all losing me
Sounds like a 9 year old produce ya beats damn
Hook:
Now put ya hands up higher
If you is a survivor
My music makes 'em rise up
To start a new uprising
Now put ya hands up higher
If you is a survivor
My music makes 'em rise up
With fire like Elijah
Verse 2:
I'm a survivor, able to make this verse tighter
Than the verse prior
Words fire, like ya burn Kaya
I pray for he that conspires
Come try us, truth apostles my gospel'll topple
Deceptive castles
Castles, chapels cancelled, and what have you
I would have you know I have you
Corrupt police in my scope I grasp you
Camera snap you, catch you in the act you better
Have concrete facts before you accuse
Black dudes, in the ghetto, where they trace hate crimes
With the yellow tape and it don't take time for the devils
To appear with the cameras to let it echo
Oh, y'all needed a dance song?
I believe you are seeing my stance wrong
What I write are freedom and act songs
Those people keep you in fashion
They deceive and mislead you with bad thoughts
Selling our kids these devious a** songs
'cause they ain't got no souls man
Y'all might be more global but I'm more noble
Y'all prey on teens that are hormonal
I pray for teens and what they go through
30 plus year old dudes who coach you
On how to have sex and to smoke too
Say it ain't for kids but who do they promote to?
I mean really, 106 and park? Ha
Hook:
Now put ya hands up higher
If you is a survivor
My music makes 'em rise up
To start a new uprising
Now put ya hands up higher
If you is a survivor
My music makes 'em rise up
With fire like Elijah
Now put ya hands up higher
If you is a survivor
My music makes 'em rise up
To start a new uprising
Now put ya hands up higher
If you is a survivor
My music makes 'em rise up
With fire like Elijah
Ladies and gentlemen, you are tuned into O'hene Savant the illuminated
I come in the name of the ancestors people like Bob Marley, Curtis Mayfield, 2Pac, Michael Jackson, anybody that came and fought for love and died for it, that's who I represent
See I came to this country to make a difference. I got fresh off the plane from out of a tropical climate
And had to live in a place with no Sheet Rock, in the winter time can you imagine that?
Well this is what I am willing to do for love and I feel like this is my year. So all the people that are iLLUMINATED, stand up
