Knowledge Is King Lyrics


Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:
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 sameKnowledge 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 hookOf 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 levelRead 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 kingNow 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 itNow 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 itParty 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 nutEvil 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 kingMy knowledge comes from a spiritual force
Stronger than any earthly source
Propaganda, hype or slander
I won't believe the hype, I understand theMedia dictates, the mind and rotates
The way you think and syncopates slow pace
Brains, can't maintain
Ascertain insipid inane crass rainInsane lame traditions
All praise fame positions
Want to be a star, drive a big car
Live bourgeois, don't know who you areLost 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 kingMy 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 itHangin' 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 profoundOr 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 deadYou 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 yaNeed 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' forFollowing 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

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
