lyrics

(sample: Neely Fuller Jr) Yes racism is white supremacy.
(interviewer) - Ok
Neely Fuller Jr. - White supremacy is racism.
Interviewer - Ok
Neely Fuller Jr - Now these, uh, in following, with the textbook of victims of racism, uh, one of the things to focus on.

Pruven verse-

Some pain can't shake "etch a sketch"
Dark Light Tablets no regrets
Wake up no rest verse confess treasures from Heaven's chest doing my best
Detect anguish in his voice box
Choices non stop hop give your pops props
Life's boar no more you just a bore
Spare tire getting thicker pretender rhymes get torn quicker
Whiskey in your liver
You a wigger with a bad temper
Beyond and above all thought
It's God's art paintbrush blotch erase away your start with no heart
Empires of the age
Power missions virtuous
You failing for decades
I'm missing my braids
Realms hitting keep spitting
Hunter bounty two convicts from prison missing
My spiritual will glisten consume the vision
Hell's temple snakes hissing
My mission there's no honor for the gun your hand gripping
Weaponry divine
So open your 7th eye
Make the new America mythical forever
The planet all started in Africa

chorus:
Far from famous kid
Just a underground emcee serving a hard bid
In the industry
In the industry
Knife to the spleen
Fight for your team
Light to the scene
Light to the scene

Far from famous kid
Just a underground emcee serving a hard bid
In the industry
In the industry
Knife to the spleen
Fight for your team
Light to the scene
Light to the scene

Pruven verse 2

Vocal imagery
Spiritual chemistry
Connected to that zero point energy
Disclosure projects tantamount hear'em out
Military abductions centuries of corruption
In any event emit Egypt even immense egos will exit
Books to relish
Carlos Castaneda breaking bread measures
Intimate communion with God
Cancel your facade
The fear monger words confuse
Into, hyperdimensional realms I toss you
Psychopaths are channels in which evil aliens work though
Always drop the jewels
Source expose the blood flow will grow
Spot powers
Bank of America, Wells Fargo are sour
J.P. Morgan, CitiBank
Have privileges the average person can't
Wealth and secret estates
Bank cartel run the federal reserve all well running the country to hell
So dwell
The dollar depreciation is deliberate with political crime syndicate raw sewage etiquette
It don't matter who the president is they running the biz
Federal reserve in power taste is sour directing the matrix from behind the scenes do not cower
So don't be a passive observer
For peace and happiness some people will murder
The Giant blew his hand off with a firecracker
What in life that matters that your after?

chorus:
Far from famous kid
Just a underground emcee serving a hard bid
In the industry
In the industry
Knife to the spleen
Fight for your team
Light to the scene
Light to the scene

Far from famous kid
Just a underground emcee serving a hard bid
In the industry
In the industry
Knife to the spleen
Fight for your team
Light to the scene
Light to the scene

sample:
(Neely Fuller Jr)- The use of words, ok cause that's the cement, that holds the system together, other than violence. The words are used to deceive the victims.
(Interviewer): The words are used to deceive the victims?
(Neely Fuller Jr) - Yes
(Interviewer) - ok
(Neely Fuller Jr) - Whoever thought of the idea of racism, white supremacy, had to, according to the evidence, think in terms of, in order to make this system work, we'll have to use words. Which means we will use the words to deceive people, & in order to deceive people we will have to use word tricks. & when the word tricks don't work, then we will back it up with direct violence. Because when your deceiving people to their detriment that is a form of indirect violence.
