Talib Kweli - Wormhole lyrics
rate me[Intro:]
Are you niggas wanna get deep?
Niggas wanna kick knowledge?
Y'all niggas ain't deep man,
Y'all niggas lost me!
Soon as you steady trying to tell me
Which rappers in the fucking Illuminati
Then I'm like, show me the proof right?
Niggas start talking about the Antichrist and aliens and shit
Save the ghost stories for the kids nigga,
I'm a grown ass man
Let's go, let's go!
You can lead a man to a drink
But you can't make him take a sip!
You can lead a man to a link
But that don't mean he gonn' click!
What's this? Y'all ain't really on no deep shit
I peaked it, scared of a motherfucking secret.
Society is only built with people you agree with
You scared of a challenge, scared to death
Only thing worse is your silence
Illuminates enlightened, the hour seeing the darkness
Masonic roots still survive but the book of dearly departed
Egyptologist is scholars, symbologists at the college
Will all acknowledge that ancient… is where it started
Way farther back than the knights
Or the right to the Scottish
You need to wake up, no new Bugatti!
Yes! my enemy trying stop me
But I don't stand a chance if I can't identify em properly
Illuminati as we know it started in Bavaria
Years before it landed on the shores of America.
The mission, abolishment of government and religion
They were enemies of the state,
And they was hated by the Christians.
They was poets, they was scholars
Early Illuminati was sort of like the students in Victor Hugo's Les Miserables
The modern day politicians would… 'em, turning them into martyrs
This intern inspired the founding fathers
The vast majority masons who were the subject of the Illuminati
Found this fascination, the order was inspiration
(Keep going!)
And ain't no disrespect to the masons
But you try to keep secrets then it leads to speculation
Only those in league with Satan need to hide information
That's how you catch a ride to your final destination.
Where the proof? Show 'em proof, put it all on the table,
When the facts are intact ain't no need for a fable!
Good versus evil is primitive
Real life's more complex, what's your context?
They put the symbols on the dollar bill, the monument, the obelisk
They honor in Columbia, the children of the colonists
You can trace it back to the root, trace it back again
It's really just another case of stealing from the African.
Racism and vanity justify the sale of flesh
You property like cattle… …the fresh
Population control is real you know the deal
But still perpetuate the cycle of violence
We know who holds the steel.
No, I don't need no fucking chorus
Use to read so many books
Thought I was a hoarder down at Borders
Like I heard of… or The New World Order
But you really don't know what you reading
If you really don't know the author
A lot of Satan worship is stuck in the government propaganda
Unsubstantiated lies with no proof, a bunch of slander!
Of course there are forces against you and that's a fact
Don't get caught in the distraction, it's bigger than any rapper
The truly oppressed ain't got the luxury of inventing a monster
The devil incarnate is much realer than the devil concert
What they doing so sinister,
worst than any blood sacrifice you can imagine
Iller than any cinema, The Federal Reserve, the World Bank and the IMF
Helping to pull the poor you in debt until your dying breath
Food, vaccines, humanitarian aid
They're what controlling the region they really trying get paid.
Obey the consumer make a product out of man, yeah!
Where's the conspiracy it's always been the plan?
Y'all niggas scared of one world currency, but still paying your taxes
It ain't the Illuminati that worry me
Lack of spiritual energy, suicidal tendencies
Unwitting soldiers in the armies of the enemy
I'm leaking information so follow me down the wormhole
Same reason that they called Bradley Manning a turncoat!
[Outro:]
Man, we supposed to be brother!
Oh what you trying to get smart?
Nigga you trying to kick some knowledge?
Nigga fuck that!
Give me your motherfucking jewelry, nigga
Take that shit off!
Oh you got a pager too, huh?
You a baller huh?
You a baller huh?
Gimme that motherfucking shit!
Better me than the motherfucking cops, nigga?
