I'm not known for the singin' of the common man's grammar J from the Clan but I'm not a Wu-Tanger Concrete guerrilla, still spittin' bananas Reset the foundation by swingin' a new hammer Glitz and the glamour come secondary To my timeless jewels and street knowledge degrees (come on) Weapon X haters: down on your knees Throw your rhymes in the flames and repent to the east One two three and a three two one Exodus, hip hop redemption Resurrection, tell folks I'm all one Like my boy in Amistad: "Me wants free-dom!" Round the mountain I come Hannibal's descendent won't stand for minimum Dummyville's gunners that bring the hella heat My underground scroll's spellbound in the street

[Chorus] Weapon X - contact for the next level room Ease back, silly mortals - dark sun, give me room Weapon X - Grand verb modern day dot doom My armor for the jihad - the cipher - zoom
Frederick Douglass - Wheatley - Carver Clayton Junior - David Walker Sonny Carson to H. Rap Brown Ancestry that worked the black crowd THINK! As if you were born in the stars Enrolled in the army of Abdul-Jabbars THINK! As if you were born in the gods And you end up a mortal gettin' whiplash scars Never forget from whence you're from Master antennas of peace and freedom Dance to the rhythm of the evolve drum Never humdrum - you're dealin' with the sun It's a horizon of the loud proud free Sticky freaky plants of the (fleet just feed?) Now my attitude is worse than an AK Clip never stoppin' when my sweet tongue spray Ever essence of flight - keepin' it tight We mad future mystics, we offer insight
[Chorus] Weapon X - contact for the next level room Ease back, silly mortals - dark sun, give me room Weapon X - Grand verb modern day dot doom My armor for the jihad - the cipher - zoom
