True Master - Palm And Fist lyrics

[Hook] Knowledge is the foundation. Wisdom is the Way Understanding will show you that's your only Way [KRS-One] What is the difference between the palm and the fist? When the palm is open, does the fist not exist? Or when the fist is clinched, ready to harm Does it mean that you no longer have a palm? No palm and fist are part of the hand But even deeper, they part of what you understand There is no palm or fist Your perception of your hand movements is calling it this Palm and fist doesn't exist But they do, when your hands is used like this by you So try to look at words, while you cookin' the herbs Look at the birds, is that a bird? A B.I.R.D.S? Is that what it is? Is that what's building his nest? That's not all of it, a B.I.R.D.S is what we calling it But really, what is a bird really? Look past the word symbols to see the bird clearly Hear me, if you never name yourself You are forever subject to everyone else Your name is your nature It makes you lower or greater I'm not a hater, but you'll see later So back to the palm and the fist, overstand The palm and the fist are symbols of the hand It's what the hand is doing, not what it is The doing is the effect that causes what it is So what is it, when you live by the definitions of what others give Living history of what others live You're like a kid, I mean a goat Being led to the slitting of your own throat Wow, for many there's no hope It seems like they up sh**s creep without a boat [Hook]
