[00:20.733] Have you ever heard the tale of
[00:22.805] The noblest of gentlemen rose up from squalor
[00:25.979] Tall, dark, and decked out in custom-made regalia
[00:29.288] Smellin' like paraphernalia
[00:30.714] Hailin' from the home of Mahalia
[00:32.484] His uptown smile was gold like of Frankie Beverly Day
[00:35.730] His favorite song from Prince was not "Raspberry Beret"
[00:39.070] It was "Sometimes It Snows In April"
[00:41.054] He was brought up by the faithful
[00:42.583] In the cage of every unclean bird, ungrateful and hateful
[00:45.920] The legend of the clandestine reverend from the Bricks
[00:49.116] With the master's grip to pull the sleeping giant out the ditch
[00:52.207] And I ain't even have to wiggle my nose like Bewitched
[00:55.593] I just upshift the 6, convert the V4 to a broomstick
[00:58.971] Though I tarry through the valley of death, my Lord give me pasture
[01:02.318] If you want to be a master in life, you must submit to a master
[01:05.627] I was born to lock horns with the devil at the brink of the hereafter
[01:08.796] Me, the socket, the plug and universal adapter
[01:12.070] The prodigal son who when from his own vomit
[01:15.310] To the top of the mountain with 5 pillars and a sonnet
[01:17.539] The autobiography read *****ic
[01:19.001] Spread love like Kermit the Frog, that permeate the fog
[01:22.241] I'm at war like the Dukes of Hazard against the Bosses of the Hogs
[01:25.534] Gi-Gi-Giggity, Alchemist put the icing on the soliloquy
[01:28.775] Let it be forever known that I niced up to pen something considerably
[01:32.375] Jay Elec told the flow mainly is support mainly
[01:35.561] The fatwa he issued on al-Shayṭān was delivered plainly
[01:38.644] It's the day of Qiyāmah
[01:40.540] To the believers I bring you tidings of joy
[01:42.675] But if you want beef I'll fillet mignon ya
[01:45.508]You could catch me bummy as shit or decked out in designer
[01:48.772] On I-10 West to the desert on a Diavel like a recliner
[01:51.849] Listen to everything from Electra
[01:53.999] From the honorable minister Louis Farrakhan
[01:55.776] To Serge Gainsbourg or Madonna or a podcast on Piranhas
[01:58.629] What a time we livin' in, just like the scripture says
[02:02.082] Earthquakes, fires and plagues, the resurrection of the dead
[02:05.321] (page turn sound)
[02:27.382] I'm a miracle born with imperial features
[02:30.473] I'm a page turner, sage burner, Santeria
[02:33.771] Chango, December baby, Mauritius
[02:37.226] Saint Hov, story takes place in ancient Egypt
[02:40.515] They'll cut off the nose to spite the face, they'll steal ya Jesus
[02:44.133] I can't tell Hattie White that blue-eyed virgin is make believe stuff
[02:47.198] She throw me out the house, say ye deliver us from this heathen
[02:50.397] I say that to Ms. Tina she'll sneeze at sun, her photic reflex
[02:53.640] They both have straightening combs, little did they know
[02:56.352] I hold the heat next
[02:57.400] Neither tool, can be used to fix our defects
[03:00.313]P.S. we born perfect, **** all the B.S
[03:03.894] Everybody wanna be us for real, we just gotta see us
[03:07.104] Insha'Allah
[03:22.073] I tried to turn a page, over a zillion times
