MRS. LADY 07-08-2008, 10:08 AM There is spirituality in HipHop....
"rolling thru the forrest is the hardest lyrical artist..
black woman u are not a b**** ur a goddess..
let it be known you can lean on krs-one cause i'm hard
like a wall I represent god
wack mc's are only down wit gun buck
but when u say let's buck for revolution...
they stfu
can't get with
down to start a riot in a minute
....
this is not the first time i came to the planet
but every time i came only a few could understand it
i came as isis my words they tried to ban
i came as moses they couldn't follow my commandments
i came as solomon to a people that was lost
i came as jesus but they nailed me to a cross
came as harriet tubman.. put the truth to soujourner
other times i had to come as nat turner
they tried to kill lynch me and starve me
so i had to come back as marcus garvey
and bob marley
they couldn't harm me..
i use to be malcolm x
now im on the planet as the one call'd krs
teaching the metaphysical
spiritual
trying to get wit u
to show u that u r invicible...
THE BLACK PANTHER IS THE BLACK ANSWER FOR REAL!
In my spiritual form I turn into Bobby Seal
on the wheels of steel
my spirit flys away
and enters into Kwame Torray........
THERE ARE MANY METAPHYSICIANS IN HIP HOP........
name of the song above is "ah yeah" .......
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
I'm a servant of god so don't ever mistake it
be fake but with ur fakin u can never escape it
I'm faceless, and raceless my message is ageless...
I'm within all faiths...
it's the same like what hate is...
the matrix is fake but how they make it so tight
it's in mahalia jackson's song imitations of life.....
where we headed?
TO THE ULTIMATE STATE OF FREEDOM!!!!!

Hip Hop is something that has always been apart of African culture. We just have to get back to the essence of it as a culture. Soon enough you gon see Rap vs Hip Hop.

Jahari Kavi 08-16-2008, 03:17 PM Rakim - The 18th Letter
Just when things seemed the same, and the whole scene is lame
I come and reign with the unexplained for the brains 'til things change
They strain to sling slang, I'm trained to bring game
History that I arranged been regained by King James
Go to practice, with tactics, when the track hits, theatrics
Women that look like actress the status of Cleopatra's
Stacks of mathematics to feed yo-asiatics
As I find out, what the facts is, for geographic
No time to sip Mo's with hostess, never mind what the total gross is
I rip shows, stay focused, and split cheese, with soldiers
While you hit trees and coast I spit flows that be ferocious
And with these explosives, I split seas for Moses
Shine permanently only my mind's concernin me
Fire burns in me eternally time's eternity
Followers turn on me they'll be in a mental infirmary
Determinely advance technology better than Germany
Since the first days you know of, till the last days is over
I was always the flow-er, I made waves for Noah
From a compound, to the anatomy, to the breakdown of a atom
Some of my rap patterns, still surround Saturn
From the ancient hieroglyphics, to graffiti painted pictures
I study I know the scriptures but nowaday ain't it vicious
Date back I go beyond, check the holy Qu'ran
To speeches at the autobahn, now we get our party on
So being benificent, I bless em with dialogue
They expectin the next testament, by the God
I roam through battlezones with chrome for chaperone
Blast beat with saxophones one of the baddest rappers known
Every country city and borough, sidestreet and ghetto
Isle and alley and meadow, theories thorough enough to echo
When it was one mass of land, with one nash' of man
And the whole mass was ran under one master plan
Since the world's metamorphis, and the plan is kept in orbit
Turntables we spin awkward but needles never skip off it
Rhythms we expressin similar to our ancestors
It'll answer your questions if you understand the message
From the days of the slave choppers, to the new age of prophets
As heavy as hip-hop is I'm always ready to drop it
From the mind which is one of Allah's best designs
And mines'll stand the test of time, when I rhyme
Rakim - Who Is God
In eternal blackness, in the midst of the darkest night
Proteins and minerals, exist within specks of light
Solids liquids and gases, and sparks of light within
infinite lengths and widths and depths and heights
No beginning or ending, the seven dimensions
Enough space for more than a million words and inventions
To travel through time within enough room to be the womb
of the most high's great mind which he will soon make shine
With intelligent elements in sight that he will gather
In the realms of relativity electricity struck matter
Energies explode he below to keep releasin
Atoms by the millions, til the numbers increasin
Til it was burnin he kept returnin itself to the source
The hotter his thoughts it gave the center more force
He gave birth to the sun which would follow his laws
All caused by his mental intercourse, who is God?
He began to explain his craft, the master in the attic
He dealt with measurements his language, was mathematics
His theoretical wisdom of the numerical system
The complete number nine which means born or existed
He gave birth to all planets, inorganic, and organic
So you wouldn't take it for granted
They rotated they own distance around the sun
And fully submit to the existance of one
And each one was promised everlasting perfection
If each one keeps spinnin in the same direction
To the East, and each speak the motion of peace
and harmony, and each show devotion to teach
The universe is to come, the whole world must go according
Know your galaxies and mirages stars start fallin
So stay in your orbit maintain safe and sound
Like the planets each cipher remains perfectly round
From unconciousness, to conciousness
By knowledging his wisdom his response is this
A understanding, which is the best part
He picked the third planet where new forms of life would start
He pursued show and prove every move in order
Back to the source he let off his resources in the water
Climb his climax, where the climate is at, high degrees
See he start to breathe deep in the darkest seas
And the plan is, to lay in the clays to form land
And expand, usin the same clays to born man
In his own image our origin begins in the East
Culture rise to breed, with the powers of peace
Deal in equality nature's policy is to be God
Build or destroy positively born life like Allah
And each one was given everlasting perfection
If each one keep living in the same direction
And life was life, and love was love
We went according by the laws of the world above
They showed us physically, we could reach infinity
But mentally, through the century we lost our identity
Life start and ending, we got trife and started sinning
Lost touch with the beginning now ciphers stop spinnin
And what was once easy became confused and hard
Which brings us back, to the mystic question, who is God?
Sixty-six trillion years since his face was shown
When the seventh angel appears, the mystery will be known
Check Revelations and Genesis, St. Luke and John
It even tells us we are Gods in the Holy Qu'ran
Wisdom Strength and Beauty, one of the meanings of God
G.O.D. you and me ?Gomars O Dubar?
Knowledge Wisdom Understanding Sun Moon and Star
Man Woman and Child, and so is Allah
Although some people recognize Ra as a battle ready lyricist he drops jewels of knowledge all throughout his music...............
amazon1979 08-17-2008, 08:55 PM More political than metaphysical, Immortal Technique gets my vote everytime HipHop is mentioned. His track 'Dance with the devil' is worth a listen (www.youtube.com/watch?v=M72zVuBNpEA) and never fails to cause some sort of psychological reaction (tears, shock etc) on anyone who listens to it and thinks its based on true events. A fact he never fails to poke fun at during his live performances stating 'I wish white people would stop coming up to me asking 'duuuudeee..did that guy really rape his mom?'. (the answer is no).
Those who truly understand the lyrics experience a subconscious reaction.
"Point of no return", is another classic track from I.Technique.
[Verse 1]
They told me I would never make it, I would never achieve it
Reality is nourishment, but people don't believe it
I guess it’s hard to stomach the truth like a bulimic
It’s a dirty game and nobody is willing to clean it
But this is for the paraplegics, people dreamin' of runnin'
Ladies married to men who don’t please 'em, dreamin' of comin'
urbanly murderous like David Berkowitz when I'm gunning'
Some cowards on the internet didn't think I would sell
Scared to talk **** in person, cusp they stuck in a shell
And couldn't understand the pain of being stuck in a cell
Hell is not a place you go, if you not a Christian
It’s the failure of your life’s greatest ambition
It's a bad decision to blindly follow any religion
I don't see the difference in between the raw and the wrong
Soldiers emptyin' the clips at little kids and they moms
I'm just like a desperate mother****** strapped to a bomb
Humanity is gone, smoked up in a gravity bong
by a democrat republican Cheech and Chong
Immortal Technique, you never heard me preachin' a song
I'm not controversial; I'm just speakin' the facts
Put your hands in the air like you got the heat to your back
And shake your body like a baby born addicted to crack
And since life is a gamble like the crapstables at Vegas
I freestyle my destiny, it's not written in pages
[Verse 2]
I hate it when they tell us how far we came to be
As if our people’s history started with slavery
Painfully I discovered the **** they kept us secret
This is the exodus like the black Jews out of Egypt
I keep it reality based wit the music I make
Brought the truth to your face with the style I run wit
Like the navy missile that shot down flight eight hundred
I'm like the Africans who came here before Columbus
And from the 15hundreds until after the model
I watch Latin America get raped in the sorrow
You see the Spaniards never left Colombia
And if you don't believe me, you can click on Unit Mission
I never seen so much racism in all of my life
Every program and newscast, all of them white
It's like a part tide with 10 percent ruling the rest
That type of stress 'll make me put the ******* tool to your chest
Step in my way *****, I wouldn't wanna be ya
I burn slow like (a) pissing drunk with gonnorrhea
I'll do a freak show in North Korea, burning the flag
while Jay Edgar Hoover politicians dress up in drag
Try to confuse you, makin' it hard to follow this:
capitalism en democracy are not synonymous
You swallow propaganda like a birth control pill
sellin' your soul to the eye on the back of the dollar bill
But that will never be me, cusp I am leavin' the past
like an abused wife with the kids, leavin' your ***
Like a drug addict clean and sober, leavin' the stash
unbreakable Technique leavin' the plane crash
I'm out with the black box and I refuse to return
I spit reality, instead of what you usually learn
and I refuse to be concerned with condescending advice
cuz I am the only m***f**r that could change my life
[Ending]
Some people think I won't make it
but I know that I will
Escape the emptiness
cusp that **** is slow and it kills
the flow and the skill
I made y'all believe that it last
You can make the future
But it starts with LEAVING THE PAST
