The basic instructions before leaving earth
9
Knowledge this wisdom, this goes back when I was twelve
10
I loved doing right but I was trapped in hell
11
Had mad ideas, sad eyes and tears
12
Years of fears, but yo my foes couldn't bear
13
I searched for the truth since my youth
14
And went to church since birth, but it wasn't worth the loot
15
That I was paying, plus the praying
16
I didn't like staying cuz of busy-bodies and dizzy hotties
17
That the preacher had souped up with lies
18
Had me cooped up lookin at loot, butt, and thighs
19
Durin the service, he swallowed up the poor
20
And after they heard this, they wallowed on the floor
21
But I ignored, and explored my history that was untold
22
And watched mysteries unfold
23
And dropped a jewel like Solomon, but never followed men
24
Cause if you do your brain is more hollow than
25
Space oblivia, or the abyss
26
With no trace of trivia, left with the hiss
27
Does it pay to be deaf, dumb and blind?
28
From a slave we was kept from the mind
29
And from the caves he crept from behind
30
And what he gave, was the sect of the swine
31
When the bible, it condemns the pig
32
I don't mean to pull your hems or flip your wigs
33
But we used to wear a turban, but now we're in the urban
34
No more wearing beanies and dress like a genie
35
No hocus pocus cause I focus on the facts
36
And put it on the tracks and brought it through the wax
37
I speak on Jacob, it might take up some time
38
And too much knowledge, it might break up the rhyme
39
I did it anyway just to wake up the mind
40
Of those who kiss stones or prays on the carpet
41
Those who sit home, or sell books by the market
42
Need to chill and get their mind revived
43
For years religion did nothing but divide

53
I strolled through the books of Job to unfold
54
And open bibles, instead of hoping on revivals
55
Calling on His name and screaming hallelujah
56
When he hardly knew ya, that's how the devil's fooled ya
57
See look into my eyes brethren, that's the lies of a Reverend
58
Why should you die to go to heaven?
59
The Earth is already in space, the bible I embrace
60
A difficult task I had to take
61
I studied till my eyes was swollen, and only arose when
62
I found out that we were the chosen
63
I deal with the truth, and build with the youth
64
And teach my son as he kneels on the stoop
65
Son, life is a pool of sin, corrupted with foolish men
66
And women with wicked minds, who build picket signs
67
To legalize abortion, the evil eye distortion
68
I quiz Son with my wisdom
69
Before I converted, I was perverted, and knowledge was asserted
70
The study of wisdom, I preferred it
71
The understanding, it gave me mental freedom
72
I even learned Caucasians were really the Tribe of Edom
73
The white image, of Christ, is really Cesare Borgia
74
And uhh, the second son of Pope Alexander
75
The Sixth of Rome, and once the picture was shown
76
That's how the devils tricked my dome
77
I prophesized to save a man, but no one gave a damn
78
For my nation the seed of Abraham
79
Blessed with the tongue of Hebrew
80
Now we're strung on needles, and some are plungin evils
81
So study and be wise in these days of darkness
82
Peace to my nephew Marcus
