[Verse 1]
I'm not goin', I'm gone
Up, up, up and away and I'm on
A higher plane with a brain with a flame
Feel the fire, desire the same
Knowledge and wisdom and understanding
Possessed by gods, transferred to man in
A script or a book or a scripture that looks
Like a Biblical writing, inviting a hook
Of a song, sing along with a strong subliminal
Message divesting all men from criminal
Acts of the Devil, revealed and reveled
Designed to decline the mind to lower level
Read the Holy Quran or the Bible
Because it's liable to be your revival
For the weak that seek power it'll bring
Infallible power, knowledge is king

[Verse 2]
Now who wants some? Come get it
A battle is a test of wits and I'm witted
Hard beats a torch and I lit it
Set the world on fire, I did it
Now that it feels good, I'm heating up
I feed off knowledge and can't eat enough
'Cause knowledge is infinite, suckers ain't into it
Ignorance is bliss and they're kin to it
They party and dance and don't ever glance
At a book or look for their mind to advance
Caught in a rut chasing butt
Trying to get a dollar or a nut
Evil feeds off a source of apathy
Weak in the mind and of course you have to be
Less than a man, more like a thing
No knowledge or nothing, knowledge is king
[Verse 3]
My knowledge comes from a spiritual force
Stronger than any earthly source
Of propaganda, hype or slander
I don't believe the hype, I understand the
Media dictates the mind in rotate
The way you think, it syncopates slow-paced brains
Can't maintain, ascertain, insipid, inane, crass, vain
Insane lame traditions
All praise fame positions
Wanna be a star, drive a big car
Live bourgeois, one don't know who you are
Lost in the sauce and praising the dollar
Whether your faith is Christ or Allah
The knowledge of God will teach one thing
The dollar is moot, knowledge is king

[Verse 4]
My rhymes make a weak mind anorexic
You can't hang without slang so eject it
I've selected rhymes for records
To affect the effect of the rhyme that left it
Hangin' like a pound that can't come down
But you're hanging in the brain so your brain is hell-bound
Lost and found by the serpent sound
"What you don't know can't hurt", that's profound
"Absurd's" a better word
An ignorant fool is a real cool nerd
Your pockets are fat with an empty head
Got a little bit fame and a name and you're brain dead
You count dollars so ya think ya in
You know how to count but you don't know when
Add history today and it will equal the future
Repetitive mistakes because the brain ain't acute
You need knowledge to understand the concept of sacrifice
But we don't understand so we have to fight
War, killing people we never saw before
Some don't even know what they're killing for
Following rulers instead of the prophets
The wicked can rule ya but the knowledge can stop it
Souls can't be controlled 'cause it's a spiritual thing
But you got to have knowledge, knowledge is king
[Outro]
Knowledge
Knowledge is king
Knowledge
Knowledge
Knowledge
