lyrics

Bless tracks like Carl Lewis but that's not why I do this / Just one of the newest breed of inspired MC's / What transpired when these eyes saw the future of a nation / where the student-teacher bond is brought to you by Playstation / my failed education was predicated on racial hatred / now transcend like faith while history books don't really say shit / spitting space is sacred so I introspect to spray it / now you witnessing me praying so don't question this embrace it / let's face it all we're ever graced with is the present / people living scraping resin trying to talk to me about heaven / yapping about fire don't make up for skills lacking / cats are still slacking even after karma smacked them / the question isn't if so and so got soul / because that's some wack cosmos / a cultural black hole / but light shines whether you see through fate or Carl Sagan's eyes / it's past time we woke up from this complacent paradise / and unlearn
