From a slave we was kept from the mind And from the caves he crept from behind And what he gave, was the sect of the swine When the bible, it condemned the pig I don't mean to pull your hems or flip your wigs But we used to wear a turban, but now we're in the urban No more wearing beanies and dress like a genie No hocus pocus cause I focus on the facts And put it on the tracks and brought it through the wax I speak on Jacob, it might take up some time And too much knowledge, it might break up the ryhme I did it anyway just to wake up the mind of those who kiss stones or prays on the carpet Those who sit home, or sell books by the market Need to chill and get their mind revived For years religion did nothing but divide The basic instructions before leaving earth Chorus Verse Two: I strolled through the books of Job to unfold And open bibles, instead of hoping on revivals Calling on His name and screaming hallelujah when he hardly knew ya, that's how the devil's fooled ya See look into my eyes brethren, that's the lies of a Reverend Why should you die to go to heaven? The Earth is already in space, the bible I embrace A difficult task I had to take I studied till my eyes was swollen, and only arose when I found out that we were the chosen I deal with the truth, and build with the youth And teach my son as he kneels on the stoop Son, life is a pool of sin, corrupted wth foolish men and women with wicked minds, who build picket signs to legalize abortion, the evil eye distortion I quiz Son with my wisdom Before I converted, I was perverted, and knowledge was asserted The study of wisdom, I perferred it The understanding, it gave me mental freedom I even learnt Caucasians were really the Tribe of Edam The white image, of Christ, is really Cesare Borgia and uhh, the second son of Pope Alexander The Sixth of Rome, and once the picture was shown That's how the devils tricked my dome I prophesized to save a man, but no one gave a damn for my nation - the seed of Abraham Blessed with the tongue of Hebrew Now we're strung on needles, and some are plungin evils So study and be wise in these days of darkness Peace to my nephew Marcus The basic instructions before leaving earth Chorus: repeat to fade Related Lyrics Random lyrics: High Price, Small Reward, Hip Hop Fury, I Gotcha Back, Investigative Reports, Killah Hills 10304, Labels, Life of a Drug Dealer, Liquid Swords, Living Foul, Living in the World Today, Mic Trippin, Outro, Pass the Bone, Phony As Ya Wanna Be, Publicity, Shadowboxin, Stay Out of Bars, Stop the Nonsense, String Play (Like This, Like That), Superfreak, Swordsman, The Genius is Slammin, Those Were the Days, True Fresh MC, Unexplained, Victim, What Are Silly Girls Made Of, Whos Your Rhymin Hero, Words From a Genius, 1112, 4th Chamber, Amplified Sample, Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth, Beneath the Surface, BIBLE, Breaker Breaker, Cold War, Come Do Me, Crash Your Crew, Drama, Duel of the Iron Mic, Feel Like an Enemy, Feel the Pain, Gold, High Price Small Reward, Hip Hop Fury, I Gotcha Back, Investigative Reports, Killah Hills 10304, Labels, Other Genius/GZA song Lyrics 1112 Lyrics 4th Chamber Lyrics Amplified Sample Lyrics B.I.B.L.E.
