Elegy for John Trudell (feat. John Trudell, Mic Crenshaw, Quincy Davis & Claudia Cuentas)

There's nothing wrong with us Except how we see or don't see If we don't figure out something here and now See and we live in the right time and right place To meet the need of the evolution If we understand that, then we will be up to it and we will meet that need Because we cannot control what's going to happen in the future But how we use our individual and collective coherency will influence the evolutionary outcome Of what this reactionary, non-thinking, exploitive, manipulative beast has in mind "Put my Glock away I got a stronger weapon" We cannot out fight them There may be times to fight, but we cannot out fight them Because they invented that kind of death Through history, since they invented that kind of death Every provocation has been to get us, at some point, to try to out fight them And so to me, it's like no, in reality we've got to out think them We're surrounded in a reality where you have to have permission to think, that's called chain of command They don't have permission to think See only a few get to think See, this starts to equalize out the numbers So if you really, really think about it, the guerrilla warrior of the future Is going to be the one that thinks We peeped the allegory at the campfire listening Elders shared the stories of the vampire's victims How do I not make the same mistake, wisdom Generate the vision, obliterate the prison Molten lava, imminent terror Tight rope walking over the caldera Eras, ages, epochs and phases Instruments and gauges in incremental stages It's clear who engineered the fear and doubt More than ears to decipher what you hear about Zionist neurosis, scientific psychosis Explore the folklore, it'll tell you that you chose this Exposed to the elements, fragile and delicate So relevant development of agile intelligence Not practical or tactical to be on your back defenseless Capitol offenses actually prevents this The instant telling me common sense compelling me Self-defense extensive, existence is a felony How much of the predatory is actually hereditary Represent the truth you carry, be an evolutionary "I got a stronger weapon, never runs out of ammunition, never" Verbal alchemy when I'm spitting these rhymes Vision to reality, shifting in time Breaking through the lies of these prison bars Meditating in the hills trained my vision sharp Now my tactics guerrilla, take action wit principle Dealing with a system where the prison is invisible Dehypnotize, reveal the schemes Who deal the fiends and seal the screams in the field of dreams Of the matrix, I'm blazing mics, sending rays of light Through the dark phase in this maze of life See through eyes with the sacred sight With the guidance of the spirit through the ancient rites Of passage ways to rise How it's meant to be, from inside Realigned with my memory Activation, natural energy Earth people unite, to manifest with integrity By way of life, represent Seven G See in my heart is the truth and remedy Transform the pain Load up the clip, now I even got love for my enemies Bang "I got a stronger weapon that never runs out of ammunition" People are rising Rising everyday Freedom in our voices Clarity in our thoughts Our hearts are singing Giving, receiving Commanding The earth is alive The earth is alive The earth is alive She lives within us
