Why are metaphysical teachings forbidden?
The only way to talk to God is in church?
You must be kiddin'
For years they kept God hidden
Look for God in Self, not in what's written
Turn this up and listen
If your slave master wasn't a Christian
You wouldn't be a Christian
If your slave master wasn't a Christian
You wouldn't be a Christian
If your slave master wasn't a Christian
You wouldn't be a Christian
Your whole culture's missing
Hebrews are Africans
And they originated Judaism
The belief in one God is monotheism
See the truth is not hard
All you gotta know is the facts
When religion mixes with politics
It all gets wacked
You gotta know your history
Or they'll tell you that God is a mystery
And when you're born, you're born in sin
That's bullshit
That's bullshit!
They're only sayin' you can't win
You can't succeed, you can't achieve
Don't ask about God, just sit there and believe
Well I ain't tryin' to hear that lesson
Cause one thing I know
Cause one thing I know
Cause one thing I know is that the truth can always be questioned
Yeah, that's how I'm livin'
Ask and it shall be given to you
But when you're lyin'
You got no answers
You got hand clappers and a whole lot of dancers
In the church or sanctuary
They all forgot Jesus was a revolutionary
They all forgot Jesus was a revolutionary
They all forgot Jesus was a revolutionary
That hung out with criminals
I would say read the bible
But it's not the original
So it's really misleading
If you don't know the history of the author
You don't know what you're reading
If you don't know the history of the author
You don't know what you've read
You can't taste the nectar
That answers the question on why I do lectures
Cause while every MC claims to be the teacher
I be dissin' professors
Keep that bible on your shelf
God helps those that help themselves
Stop readin' from a dead book
Stop readin' from a dead book for a live God
You know how stupid you look?
God reads the bible with you
And if you both read the language of the devil
It's dissin' you
What can the next man do
With a bible in his hand that you yourself can't do?
Whether Christian, Buddhist, Muslim or Jew
Burning candles don't get you down with the universal crew
So why you dress up on Easter
And worship a false Mary that looks like Mona Lisa?
Damn, you lost
On Christ-mass, what's the purpose of Santa Claus?
On Christ-mass, what's the purpose of Santa Claus?
On Christmas, what's the purpose of Santa Claus?
A St. Nicholas for the sickest wickedness
All revolutionaries check this
I'm not synthetic
I'm not anti-Christian, anti-Muslim, anti-Buddhist
Or anti-semitic
But I will set it off in the temple
Cause the real holy place is mental
The real holy place is mental
The real holy place is mental
The real holy place is mental
The real holy place is mental
The real holy place is mental
Mental, physical
Meta-physical
