Some of the smartest dummies
Can't read the language
of Egyptian mummies
An' a fly go a moon
And can't find food for
the starving tummies
Pay no mind to the youths
Cause it's not like the
future depends on it
But save the animals in the zoo
Cause the chimpanzee
dem a make big money
This is how the media pillages
On the TV the picture is
savages in villages
And the scientist still can't
e plain the pyramids, huh
Evangelists making a living
on the videos of ribs
Of the little kids,
stereotyping the image of the images
And this is what the image is,
you buy a khaki pants
And all of a sudden you
say a Indiana Jones
An' a thief out gold and
thief out the scrolls
And even the buried bones
Some of the worst paparazzis
I've ever seen and I ever known
Put the worst on display
so the world can see
And that's all they will ever show
so the ones in the west
Will never move east and feel
like they could be at home
Dem get tricked by the beast
But a where dem ago flee when
the monster is fully grown?
Solomonic linage whe
dem still can't defeat
And them coulda never clone,
my spiritual DNA
That print in my soul and
I will forever own Lord

Huh, we born not knowing,
are we born knowing all?
We growing wiser, are
we just growing tall?
Can you read thoughts,
can you read palms?
Huh, can you predict the future,
can you see storms, coming?
The earth was flat if you went
too far you would fall off
Now the earth is round if
the shape change again
Everybody woulda start laugh
The average man can't prove
of most of the things
That he chooses to speak of
And still won't research
And find out the root of
the truth that you seek of
Scholars teach in Universities
And claim that they're smart and cunning
Tell them find a cure when we sneeze
And that's when their nose start running
And the rich get stitched
up, when we get cut
Man a heal dem broken bones
in the bush with the wed mud
Can you read signs, can you read stars?
Can you make peace, can you fight war?
Can you milk cows, even
though you drive cars
Huh, can you survive,
against all odds, now?
