Verse 1 The studio is my heaven's gate, you still want to be a rapper i want to be an intellectual heavyweight this is not for weak minded this is for all the people with IQ's above 190 you want your brain picked? come find me you think you ready to battle my wit come try me my reading lists consist of secular authors to my fellow vets respect and nothing but honor i want to go into history with people still dissin' me compose my own symphony, roll the blunt hit the weed All i want you to do is expand your mind let it get lost in the sands of time not evolve? thats just asinine you remain static do something long enough it changes your brain patterns if I had to do it again i would take the same route and shit i came from two mommies, look how i turned out
Chorus
we used to march the streets singing songs in protest {to make better the world around us} we fight the wars digitally now as lo-teks {for those who can't do this without us} now we make music to educate and inform people {to make better the world around us} and we'll drop a sequel til every human is born equal {for those who can't do this without us}
Verse 2 you ask me what I believe in right You mean which superstition do I pick to help me sleep at night? I dont see how you can lead that life they take your mind man too steep that price you didn't seek that christ you were taught it ...and because you didn't know any better you bought it you were never even a free agent up for auction testing the market, you just signed away your mind for a bargin no fuss & no arguing ...and this aint no subliminal shot i just wonder where we'd be if we didn't live in a box, ...most people do this because they want to be famous and stars, if these rappers read books i'd be out of a job there's more information than our meat-wear brains can handle i have to get a handle, life is an amazing sample there's so much for us to learn, so much to do, A god? i should be able to put my trust in you. thats what i believe...

Verse 3 ...I want to do this to expose the virgin birthin' scam lyrical serpent in the sand til the burqa's banned submit to a higher authority? the nerve of man trying interpret the nature of god like its worth a damn ...we feel the need to worship because life's so precious, we feel it need needs a purpose but then you have to ask is it even worth it? to be told not to ask, or peek between the curtains When will you people learn children have no religion and you shouldn't force them to be atheist or christian we can nip this in the bud if we undoubtedly teach these kids not what to think but how to think for all my sisters and brothers who aren't allowed to speak i represent you with every rhyme that comes out of me i hope every single mother i have is proud of me and rather die for honor than live cowardly
