[Intro]
Yeah
Uh, knowledge is power, don't get sour if it hurts you
Knowledge is- uh
[Verse]
Knowledge is power, it’s the hour of the mastermind
Genius, double their distance and half the time
Prophecize these prophecies, tragedies, Sophocles
[?] future of frozen [?] like Medusa, I'm ice cold
The prodigy with Knxwledge, he nice tho
I drop it like a bomb in the night and end your life
So come and test me
My academic record show I'm su’in special with a pen or pencil
For the record I understand that I'm learning, ignorant, uneducated
Though my résumé would suggest the adjacent, wait, I meant opposite
Still confuse my trigonometry, honestly
Simple mathematics are practiced, perfected properly escapes me
Present tendencies to be lazy
Potential is calling, so tell me are you [?]
It's only you can stop you from stallin'
So, what you waitin' for cuz' you fallin'
Self-sufficiency necessary make plans to make money
Bible say don't overdose once you taste that honey
Good instruction come like repetition when danger’s the premonition
Cuz’ it ain't funny when there’s demolition
Success; what's your definition?
You might find it, but don't let them bind it
By their pathetic, petty politics
Knowledge is power
Let that thing bloom like a flower
In the minds of our young ones
I pray for wisdom for my son's son
Was that sexist?
Adam before Eve, Eve from Adam even incoming
But do you fathom you may not see His sun?
Mourning in the morning when the heavens are calling
Death is like being born in that we still exist after and before it
Ice melts to water, we do the same
I’m ice cold, wait, stone cold
Oh no, grown flow
But he's just a little yute
Who are you?
Khalil Madovi, you are welcome to this production or presentation
Of power to generation where power is only taken from weak or poor
Wait, if power is money and knowledge is power
Then money is knowledge
And I just dropped all these [?] for free
Maybe I'm chattin' breeze
Maybe every listener owes a financial fee
Or maybe money's a man-made, master to his man-slaves
And he's really powerless
A man will kill his own for numbers on paper
Man will kill his own for numbers on screen
What do you mean money is powerless?
It's clear to see that that's where the power is
I'll show you where power is, circumstantial concrete where the flower is
Knowledge is power, power ain't money
Kill me and take my possessions, you can't take wisdom from me
Barely 18, 'course I think I figured the world out
And if this is my last, I'm glad I ever got the word out
Life is my riches
Jehovah with me, you can witness I'm healthy
Tell mum and dad not to worry cuz' I'm already wealthy
Knowledge is power
Yeah
