Nujabes - Surah 115 lyrics

[Verse 1] Ain't it amazin', my parents were first generation It's such a long way from the village you was raised in Not bad for immigrants to become physicians that manufactured my spaceship And I'm so grateful cuz you dropped me off on a block Never swallowed by darkness of gangs and gun shots But things are changing ‘cause this new kid in town named Haas They don't believe him but his tongue is a Glock that never stops spittin' They listen to my transmission, ‘cause I order an exodus Of every wack cat, I grab my weapon and I load it Exodia when I put it together The power level I'm takin' over is completely bogus My tongue finally in focus I'm Sprayin' shots completely sober no vodka The knock on me was I had no pop in my voice They don't know since a yougin' I mastered my lung's chakra But that's just a baby step in the breath, lump in my throat is immense I'm meant to flow with this slobber but my mouth won't spit it out I pa** out talkin' to my most precious thoughts This must be the d**h of me ‘Cause without y'all the only thing left of me is a monster But this life is just a big dream Inside me inside me I defeated every monster Only then did I wake up at a concert Is this real I spin the totem confirming that I am conscious I hear a calling from above tellin' me I got the see to heal the world Your sk** with the words can plant it and watch it grow Till it stretch across the whole globe It's buried in your intellect and soul, you got to find it I spit this seed of truth to the youth Embeded in your mind it's So contagious I can hardly sustain it on mosh pit at a time This seed don't need light only enlightenment from above Still they claimin' that I'm soft ‘cause I preach unity and love to y'all I'm just a messenger on a mission from God If a non-believer wanna stunt, he can take it up with Allah [Bridge] Surah 115 The lost pa**age Surah 115 [Verse 2] But on another note I'm bumpin Jay Elect full blast in my hover boat Harnessing enough key(ki) to access other world Witness the artisan harvestin' centuries of truth Buried by bandits and under borrows They backstab your country with a wound that my words will bandage Only the coldest can un-decode it and face the underworld Where elitist retreat during' the sacking of their fortress In ruins I found a mattress and squeezed out every a**et Till my flow reign from Karachi to Nazareth On top Nawaz Sherif sleeping with a devil who hit his knees at the first pa**age Read him Surah 115 now he bout to take Shahada Took a glimpse of heaven and the flow had to re-banish him My dialect is truly damagin' to any that stand in my way I know the powers comin' I just pray I don't mismanage it The leader you see in the speeches is just a manikin of hope That will never trickle down to the village that you famished in The people sandwiched in grief ‘cause You'll make ‘em believe anything, when your throne is in jeopardy My condolences will increase the longevity in the soul of the slums you brew Break the cast(e) that you shackled in I can touch the souls of untouchables The rhythm will align a world commanded by the Most talented slaves to ever touch the earth For those born at the top that's hard to swallow Like legalizing abortion, and The greatest crime drop ever to follow My art is maturing from mixtapes to the birth of albums, I Guess that's pro-choice I'm morning for babies born in mother that don't want ‘em But if you are born then I'll be your voice For kids surrounded by darkness who believe breakin' the law is your only way out I'll bring it out from within you like the heart of the prophet Cleansed on the avenue of imagination You see my heart is just a magnet I'm connecting with the ma**es My goal is to make you understand the madness Of a world where we not born equal but equally blessed I wanna speak for the poor But even the richest man has a mind so unexplored Untap your potential help me guide your blessings on course This world is f**ed up but it's yours (Beat switches) The inspiration I conduct is endorsed By the most delicate balance of love and fear My god is the fuel But the pilot and engineer of this ma**age is hope The recipe to inject, the blessed essence up into your soul The truth is a, never dying virus accept your mind as the host See the, battle against evil is off the mind and I'm a soldier at war So the meek shall inherit the earth If not today then tomorrow, if the past is a lesson The flow is a combination I borrowed From every one of the greatest You have now witness their, reincarnation Awaken From Hibernation Awaken From Hibernation Awaken From Hibernation
