Lyrics

0:04Yeah
0:04Here we are
0:08Here we are
0:15Yeah
0:28This one right here is for the people
0:31Sabali sabali sabali yonkote
0:38Sabali sabali sabali kiye
0:45Ni kêra môgô
0:46Sabali sabali sabali yonkote
0:54Sabali sabali
0:55Hey yo d
0:58Let's go all the way in on this one
1:02Some of the smartest dummies
1:03Can't read the language of egyptian mummies
1:06An' a fly go a moon
1:07And can't find food for the starving tummies
1:09Pay no mind to the youths
1:11Cause it's not like the future depends on it
1:13But save the animals in the zoo
1:15Cause the chimpanzee dem a make big money
1:17This is how the media pillages
1:19On the tv the picture is
1:20Savages in villages
1:22And the scientist still can't explain the pyramids huh
1:25Evangelists making a living on the videos of ribs of the little kids
1:28Stereotyping the image of the images
1:30And this is what the image is
1:32You buy a khaki pants
1:33And all of a sudden you say a indiana jones
1:36An' a thief out gold and thief out the scrolls and even the buried bones
1:40Some of the worst paparazzis I've ever seen and I ever known
1:44Put the worst on display so the world can see
1:46And that's all they will ever show
1:48So the ones in the west
1:49Will never move east
1:50And feel like they could be at home
1:52Dem get tricked by the beast
1:53But a where dem ago flee when the monster is fully grown
1:56Solomonic linage whe dem still can't defeat and them coulda never clone
1:59My spiritual dna that print in my soul and I will forever own lord
2:05Yeah
2:07Sabali
2:08Hisitations
2:10What the old folks told me
2:14Can you we that
2:20Discovering the world before this world
2:23A world buried in time
2:28Uncover with rhymes
2:32It gets no realer
2:34Huh
2:35We born not knowing
2:36Are we born knowing all
2:38We growing wiser
2:40Are we just growing tall
2:42Can you read thoughts
2:44Can you read palms
2:46Huh
2:46Can you predict the future
2:48Can you see storms coming
2:50The earth was flat if you went too far you would fall off
2:54Now the earth is round
2:54If the shape change again everybody woulda start laugh
2:57The average man can't prove of most of the things
2:59That he chooses to speak of
3:01And still won't research and find out
3:03The root of the truth that you seek of
3:05Scholars teach in universities and claim that they're smart and cunning
3:09Tell them find a cure when we sneeze
3:11And that's when their nose start running
3:13And the rich get stitched up when we get cut
3:17Man a heal dem broken bones in the bush with the wet mud
3:21Can you read signs
3:22Can you read stars
3:25Can you make peace
3:26Can you fight war
3:29Can you milk cows
3:30Even though you drive cars huh
3:33Can you survive against all odds now
3:36Sabali sabali sabali yonkote
3:42It's crazy
3:44Sabali sabali
3:46When you feed people the truth
3:49You don't know how they're gonna react
3:52You're scared of wrong doers
3:55People that just ignorant
3:57You're scared of the truth
4:03Be patient for now
4:07Who wrote the bible who wrote the qur'an
4:10And was it a lightning storm
4:11That gave birth to the earth
4:13And then dinosaurs were born d**n
4:15Who made up words who made up numbers
4:16And what kind of spell is mankind under
4:19Everything on the planet we preserve and can it
4:21Microwaved it and try it
4:22No matter what we'll survive it
4:24What's hue what's man what's human
4:26Anything along the land we consuming
4:28Eatin' deletin' ruin
4:31Trying to get paper what
4:32Gotta have land gotta have acres
4:34So I can sit back like jack nicholson
4:36Watch niggas play the game like the lakers
4:38In a world full of 52 fakers
4:40Gypsies seances mystical prayers
4:42You superstitious throw salt over your shoulders
4:44Make a wish for the day cuz
4:46Like somebody got a doll of me
4:47Stickin' needles in my arteries
4:49But I can't feel it ah
4:51Sometimes it's like 'part of me but I got a real big spirit'
4:53I'm fearless I'm fearless
4:56Don't you try and grab hold of my soul
4:58It's like a military soldier since seven years old
5:01I held real dead bodies in my arms
5:03Felt their body turn cold oh
5:05Why we born in the first place
5:07If this is how we gotta
5:09Sabali sabali sabali yonkote
