When you were in school, you sat in a little chair and put your attention on what the teacher was teaching you
When you went to church, you put your attention on what the priest was telling you

[Verse 1]
I came to chase Palladians back on the walls of the stadium
And drown Poseidus and POTUS in the depths of the Mediterranean
And tie up Zeus with the truth
And put Coronus neck in a noose
Then have anal sex with Venus then push her off the roof
Ringling Brothers, Barnum & Bailey circus
Spinning around in a circle with a whip
I’ll have the Sphinx leaping through my hoop
I came to pluck the Phoenix clean dry then throw him back into the goop
I’ll chase Mercury all through the skies
Adonis and Achilles into the mythos and slam the book shut
I’ll fly all the way to Egypt and call Anubis a mutt

It was all there already, all that knowledge
All those rules and concepts about how to behave in the world

[Verse 2]
Okay, the people of Canaan was in the paintings
Not the cavemen, they were more ancient
They developed a Semitic language but the Biblical writings called ‘em pagans
What a bold statement
In the scrolls old as the ages
I give you a photo of the first Afro-Asian to the Homo sapien sapient

We put information into our minds through repetition
That is the way we [?] everything we know
But using our attention we learn a whole reality, a whole dream

[Verse 3]
The mind goes back to a tropical Saudi Arabia
Before it was called Mesopotamia
Before the before people came out of Mauritania
And the Moors arrived to the shores of Lithuania
In Scandinavia, the Mbuti pygmies, gypsies, to silly cave art
The sun and moon, stars, they left trademarks to tell their holy days apart
Before the men with brave hearts and the musicians played harps
Abraham patriarchs
Before the converse, the thirteenth tribe called the Khazars
Beneath the quasars but out of their radar
Before God [?]
They played with two pieces of steel rods
The melanin fader equalizer
The people’s Elijah
The black Hebrew messiah

[Sound Bite]
It was all there already, all that knowledge
All those rules and concepts about how to behave in the world
When you were in school, you sat in a little chair and put your attention on what the teacher was teaching you
When you went to church, you put your attention on what the priest or minister was telling you
