Knowledge Is King

I'm not goin'  I'm gone
Up up up and away and I'm on
A higher plane with a brain  with a flame
Feel the fire desire the same
Knowledge and wisdom and understanding
Possessed by Gods  transferred to man in
A script of a book  or a scripture that looks
Like a Biblical writing inviting a hook
Of a song sing along with a strong subliminal
Message divesting all men from criminal
Acts of the devil  revealed and reveled
Designed to recline the mind to lower level
Read the Holy Koran or the Bible
Because it's liable to be a revival
For the weak who seek power it'll bring infallible power
Knowledge is king
Now who wants some  come get it
A battle is a test of wits and I'm witted
Hard beats a torch and I lit it
Set the world on fire  I get it
Now that it feels good  I'm heating up
I feed off knowledge and can't get enough
Knowledge is infinite  suckers ain't into it
Ignorance is bliss and they're kin to it
Party and dance and don't ever glance
At a book or look for their mind to advance
Caught in a rut  chasing butt
Trying to get a dollar or a nut
Evil feeds off a source of apathy
Weak in the mind and of course you have to be
Less than a man  more like a thing  no knowledge you're nothin'
Knowledge is king
My knowledge comes from a spiritual force
Stronger than any earthly source
Propaganda  hype or slander
I won't believe the hype  I understand the
Media dictates  the mind and rotates
The way you think and syncopates slow pace
Brains  can't maintain
Ascertain insipid inane crass rain
Insane lame traditions
All praise fame positions
Want to be a star  drive a big car
Live bourgeois  don't know who you are
Lost in the source and praising the dollar
Whether your faith is Christ or Allah
The knowledge of God will teach one thing  the dollar is moot
Knowledge is king
My rhymes make a meak mind anorexic
You can't hang without slang  so eject it
I've selected  rhymes for records
To affect the effect of the rhyme that left it
Hangin' like a pound that can come down
But you're hangin' the brain  so your brain's hell-bound
Lost and found by the serpent's sound
What you don't know can't hurt that's profound
Or absurd  a better word
An ignorant fool is a real cool nerd
Pockets are fat with an empty head
Got a little fame and a name and you're brain dead
You count dollars  so ya think ya in
You know how to count but you don't know when
And history today and it will equal the future
Repetitive mistakes 'cause the brain ain't acute ya
Need knowledge to understand the concept of sacrifice
But man don't understand  so we have to fight
War  killing people we never saw before
Most don't eden know what they're killin' for
Following rulers  instead of the prophets
The wicked can rule ya but the knowledge can stop it
Souls can't be controlled  it's a spiritual thing
But you got the knowledge  knowledge is king
Knowledge is king
