Killah Priest — Temple of the Mental

[Intro: Killah Priest] Time... wake up, wake up (What?) Wake up (I can't get up yet) What we have here is the experiment (My eyes, I can't see) It's called the 6 million dollar man (I can't see) He has the speed of a cheetah The sight (I can't see) of a falcon (my arms) Strength (what's happening to me) of a hundred guerillas (What's gonna happen?) Welcome to the new world We gonna give you a name (What is you talkin about?) What should we call him? Let's come together with one mind What should we call him? We should call him The Electric Man Right, we gon give you a time to break out (Time of life) and then the hunt goes on Ready? Let's start the clock Electric... Get outta here, I'ma break out, I'ma break out [Verse: Killah Priest] Out of one came many Electric Man running through the Electric City Ruled and governed by electricity, it's like a dream Our superiors are pathetic and they show synthetic pity Road blocks are set up by robots And cops who check your code with a red dot You can hear man plead for his self-esteem For the love of God, we all suffering We fall asleep, they handcuff us in our dreams The weak wake up and scream The world explodes if it's overload, we hug our pillows Heads are branded with barcodes It begins to burn slow like charcoal Millions of civilians ride by the carloads They head to the ships of the cargos They head back to the Congo's after the bomb goes Man froze, pineal gland close You wake up in your dreams yelling silent screams Every time you breathe is recorded by scientist teams DNA, mind is demonic surveys When you speak they confuse you with wordplay Claiming Christ never rose on the third day That was a Good Friday and the day he fell was on the Thursday The undisciplined, the ignorant, the insufficient And the unworthy screaming for God's mercy R.S. get bloodthirsty, many were persecuted Executed, the have-nots saluted Family trees were uprooted Anyone found on the streets were obsolete Military killed the unnecessary, cops would cheat death Grenades, blades, anti-matter rays Through age, hurricane tidal waves of slaves Follow the maze through the grave Those who disobeyed, now obey Something satanic invades the planet Panic, the Sun of Man versus the Uncle Sam Lion of Judah meets the computer, alert the sharpshooters Send the weapons that were nuclear up to Jupiter New stars, Lucifer, global drag that spaces and the races And the great wisdom of Malcolm X I'm stressed on house arrest New World Order that slaughter as Sodom and Gomorrah Beast rises from the bottom of the water Having seven heads with plagues The feds versus the dreads The reunion of the Soviet Union is ruined Watching every day like the movie Truman Thugs push off their last minute drugs Marines jump in their submarines and get their machine guns No more sunlight, the final fight Bring forth your pitchforks and your pipes And you shovels, the rebels and the devils are now level Bacteria becomes superior, man becomes inferior And the day of the prophets So did the little child looking through the windows of Spartan The sky fill wit total darkness, the world of total stillness Energy arisin from a local village, no more privilege Men hearts'll feel this, vocals are silent quiet, do you feel it? Peace and quiet, no more riots, soft like whispers We see men wit gold slippers, read the scrolls of scriptures Garments were angelic, gold robes that were sowed wit velvet Silver helmets, children were silk, drinkin soy milk Laughin and lookin at the world that they built Calm lake, smooth evergreens, new redeem Food for the kings and the queens They all seen shakin the tambourine, shakin all the cymbal They dwell in the Temple of the Mental No more poverty stricken, robbery, guns be clickin Forever burnin in this furnaces of affliction Over dose and drug addiction Thugs who just buy the system, will shut the blood of the victim Sacrilegious, savages trapped in prisons Trynna adapt the wisdom, they sit back and listen To the old timers, the beast out the clotheslines Bullets claim the lives of minors, shoot-outs in front of local spots Even TV's takin photo shots, we in the third world I'll give my life before my word fail I'll give my life before my word fail I'll give my life before my word fail I'll give my life before my word fail Terrestrial escape through the east gate Electric types of prones, protons, neutrons Electric soul, electric glow, electric probes Electric lights light up the night Neon, skies, neon site Note the flight, first man, mind and sometimes Resemble Einstein's now turn into Frankenstein's What's yours is mine, I'll give my life before my word fail I'll give my life before my word fail I'll give my life before my word fail I'll give my life before my word fail
