Brand Nubian - Ain't No Mystery lyrics

[both] it ain't no mystery .. (4x) "who is that?" "the supreme black man, that's who!" (3x) "hoo that's the man!" [both] it ain't no mystery "who is that?" "the supreme black man, that's who!" (3x) "hoo that's the man!" [both] it ain't no mystery [lord jamar] Well can you tell me where to find that mystery god I don't see him, so you know the sh** is kinda hard I searched and searched, but still there's no sign It's gotta be a trick for the deaf dumb and blind Now would you set up home, and wait for a mystery god To bring food, clothing, and shelter? Emphatically no! Mathematically that just don't go See me and my people been lost for over 400 years And done tried this mystery god And all we got was hard times Hunger and nakedness, from the snake that hissed Beaten and k**ed by the ones Who say, "look to the sky for your piece of the pie" And didn't want to tell you that god's within self Bloods**ers of the poor wanna keep your wealth Keep you a slave, so you don't misbehave You never know the truth til you're dead in your grave That's when you wanna come back, but there ain't no haps Traps, caught you like a good strong buck, now you're f**ed! But my third eye helps me see That the black man's god and yo it ain't no mystery [both] it ain't no mystery .. (2x) [sadat x] Who is the mystery god, have you seen him? You can keep searchin for a trillion years Keep spreadin dates but he never appears Crazy delusions of a big white man Sittin on the throne, magic wand in his hand.. "you go to heaven! dude, you go to hell!" Churches think this mystery seems to sell Join the 10%, duty to sell the eighty-five You got part of your salary when this old god arrives I'll be gone, jetti, i nix comedy spook John ? is foul, but he still know the truth Organized crime, drop you off in america Land of the brave, watch the man from the cave Used to kneel to the cross for the war with the rappers Used to think it great, to rest ? in plates Used to pray on my knees to the mystery for g's But instead of gettin g's all i got was free cheese And bad advice, a tie around my neck Shoot on my collar, to cut off my breath But now all that's over, reality rules Deal strictly with the gospel of the ? schools Preacher preacher you could never be my teacher Dealin lies and deceit for some brothers from the street Know that the black man is god (the black man's god) There is no mystery [both] it ain't no mystery .. (2x) "who is that?" "the supreme black man, that's who!" (3x) "hoo that's the man!" [both] it ain't no mystery "who is that?" "the supreme black man, that's who!" (3x) "hoo that's the man!" [both] it ain't no mystery [lord jamar] First soul, black like coal The original one, with the power of the sun Allah's god, always has been always will be Never could be, a f**in mystery But you pray for jehovah to come That'll be the day when you leave the slum Until that time, you just keep eatin swine Drinkin cheap wine on the welfare line [sadat x] Who's the clown, that didn't paint jesus brown? Everybody knows the man was original When the jam is over i'ma go and take my vegetable Check buy a tech let loose in the vatican Courts writin lies, record company is mad again These asiatics is racist Because i love the black faces So put your bible in the attic cause i didn't come for static The true and living g-o-d It ain't no mystery [both] it ain't no mystery .. (2x) "who is that?" "the supreme black man, that's who!" (3x) "hoo that's the man!" [both] it ain't no mystery "who is that?" "the supreme black man, that's who!" (3x) "hoo that's the man!" [both] it ain't no mystery
