Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 or 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 decline the mind to lower level Read the Holy Qur'an or the Bible Because it's liable to be your revival For the weak that seek power it'll bring Infallible power, knowledge is king [Verse 2] 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 did it Now that it feels good, I'm heating up I feed off knowledge and can't eat enough 'Cause knowledge is infinite, suckers ain't into it Ignorance is bliss and they're kin to it They party and dance and don't ever glance At a book or look for their mind to advance Caught in a rut chasing butt Tryna 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 or nothing, knowledge is king [Verse 3] My knowledge comes from a spiritual force Stronger than any earthly source Of propaganda, hype or slander I don't believe the hype, I understand the Media dictates the mind in rotate The way you think, it syncopates slow-paced brains Can't maintain, ascertain Insipid, inane, crass, vain Insane lame traditions All praise fame positions Wanna be a star, drive a big car Live bourgeois and don't know who you are Lost in the sauce 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 [Verse 4] My rhymes make a weak 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't come down But you're hanging in the brain so your brain is hell-bound Lost and found by the serpent sound "What you don't know can't hurt", that's profound Absurd's a better word An ignorant fool is a real cool nerd Your pockets are fat with an empty head Got a little bit fame and a name and you're brain dead You count dollars so you think you're in You know how to count but you don't know when Add history today and it will equal the future Repetitive mistakes because the brain ain't acute You need knowledge to understand the concept of sacrifice But we don't understand so we have to fight War, killing people we never saw before Some don't even know what they're killing for Following rulers instead of the prophets The wicked can rule ya but the knowledge can stop it Souls can't be controlled 'cause it's a spiritual thing But you got to have knowledge, knowledge is king [Outro] Knowledge Knowledge is king Knowledge Knowledge Knowledge
