[Verse 1: Poetic] I want a queen on every continent so I can escape the government Flee my residence, settle in I'm militant minded, brilliant rhyme whiz The time is now for me to shine, kids are innocent Blinded, society got to be reminded of my diary Cause tragically I carry the Misery of centuries that's sent to me Not coincidentally intentionally cause mentally I represent the key but it's a double-edged sword see Tryna be godly is hard Especially in poverty's backyard where violence has taken over Free enterprise and lies is idolized cause it's deep inside Without Allah, God or Jehovah to guide the Lost Tribe You're forced to reside on the north side Babylon is never penalized for being offside So many lost lives, I wonder how long before the herd dies Today I heard the Earth cry for the first time It was the worst time, it was the worst time The way I heard the Earth cry
[Verse 2: RZA ] I came to the shores of America disguised as a peddler The alpha and omega and the home of the beggars The black settlers who been beaten, raped, lynched, robbed and stoned And called to roam the Earth in service so they couldn't maintain at home This dates back to 1555 When they captured the first tribe of men and piled them in a pen Fifty feet high They took 'em all on the nine thousand mile ride And landed on the shore of a place they never seen before But read about this inside the ancient books of war Bonded in stainless steel, stripped of their language, still survived the anguish of slavery but still remained nameless Separated to portions and tricked by John Haughty Hawkins And sold on an auction, taught birth control and abortion Rulers of the first part became slaves of the worst part The devils cursed God and reversed God And turned God to dog and made people search hard Notoriety came to the prophet of W.D. Fard To a trauma, dropped our mommas off in Bahamas And Barbados, Tobago's, separated us from slave boats Made our own brothers hate us From Virgin Isle to Jamaica Trinidad, Honduras, Haiti, Grenada Bermuda to Cayman, mental enslavement You black gods become awaken
[Chorus: RZA] At night time you can hear the earth cry How many more black gods got to die Before we realize there's no God in the sky The devil tricked us, that's the worst lie At night time I can hear the Earth cry How many more black gods got to die You realize there's no God in the sky The devils tricked us, that's the worst lie
[Verse 3: Frukwan] Peace god for real, not a spook nor a ghost Not unseen but seen and heard most of all I'm God, control nine planets Wisdom revolves around me understand it Science, huh my rhyme's underrated Pyramids built according to how we made it to be Many shall come few shall be chosen 32 degrees below zero and you're frozen Power of refinement my rhyme's assignment Is to crush negative bullshit in a line With the fusion Cause that which is beyond 360 degrees is an illusion Either you're deaf, dumb or blind Stupid hypocritical, dumb 85 yo it's time See I without me don't exist God cypher love divine is what I miss Check it like a visual reflection, sort of supernatural Your know your mind detects as being natural Ultra-gamma, the hammer's my energy Compressed to a form of a threat toward my enemy Cypher's a circle that consists of a whole No beginning no ends no sides it's just a hole Like in an event I'm a percent Dealt out a hundred I'm 5, my degree is a black belt Real genuine not authentic Older than the sun moon and stars unprecedented In North America success can be won as a game And knowledge and understanding still one and the same Greatest reward known to mankind That winners never quit and quitters never win in the mind But in time my degrees are getting deeper Thicker in the subconscious state of the sleeper
[Chorus: Frukwan] At night time I can hear the earth cry Wonder how many black gods got to die At night time I can hear the earth cry I wonder how many black gods must die At night time I can hear the earth cry I wonder how many black gods must die At night time I can hear the earth cry I hear her cry (Peace to the earth) I cry
