You Can't Stop The Prophet

(Oh, yo, look towards the darkness)

(Nah, nah, yo, look towards the light)

(Yo, oh, what the? Yo, what is that?)

(It's a supernova)

(Nah, nah, man, that's a blackhole)

(Yo, yo, yo, yo, it's, it's, it's)

I leap over lies in a single bound (Who are you?)

The Black Prophet

One day I got struck by knowledge of self

It gave me super scientifical powers

Now, I run through the ghetto

Battlin' my arch nemesis, Mr. Ignorance

He's been tryin' to take me out

Since the days of my youth

He feared this day would come

I'm hot on his trail

But sometimes he slips away

Because he as an army

They always give me trouble

Mainly hatred, jealousy, and envy

They attack me, they think they got me

But I use my super science and I twist all three

I see sparks over that buildin'

They're shootin' at me, I dip, do a backflip

Then I hit 'em in the heart with sharp steel bookmarks

Ignorance hates when I drop it

But no matter what he do

He can't stop the Prophet

(Yo, Prophet, yo, Prophet, come here real quick)

(Yo, I just saw Ignorance downtown)

(Let me put you on)

(Word, he down there buggin')

(He got them illin' out)

(They shootin' and everything else)

Let's continue the saga, mad, mad drama

I met this chick, she said she knew where

Ignorance was at, I said, where?

She said, downtown

He had babies havin' babies

And young **** sellin' crack

I think the bitch is lyin', it's a set up

I can smell it, but Ignorance is runnin' rampant

Aight, baby, show me the exact spot

Meet me at Hoyt and Schermerhorn at three on the dot

So I hops up on the A train, I'm bein' followed

My seventh sense senses danger

I turn around, it's Anger

And he brought a mob along, it's the same old song

Despair and Animosity got broke with the swiftness

I don't know what they think this is

I feel a sharp pain in my neck

Now I can't see, I'm like Hiram

They hit me the dart filled with the pork chop serum

I tried to hold on, but before long, I dropped

When I awoke, I was locked in the barber's shop

Trapped in the barber's chair

Oh no, they're gonna try and cut my hair

But that can't stop the Prophet

(Yo, Prophet, Ignorance is tired)

(Of you followin' him around)

(We about to put an end to that right now)

(Animosity, Despair, get him)

(Can't a damn thing stop me)

(Can't, can't a damn thing stop me)

(Can't a damn thing stop me)

A few minutes passed by

I hear a buzzin' noise

It was that chick with some of Ignorance's boys

She said, Prophet, we got you beat

By the way, I'm Mr. Ignorance's wife, Deceit

But enough talk, now for your hair cut

When the clippers touched my hair

They blew the fuck up

After the explosion, there was no one left

'Cause I know Dim Mak, poison hand, touch of death

My vision's still kinda blurry, but I see a clue

Ignorance is at the library

I hurry with lightning speed like The Flash

He's at the big one on Grand Army Plaz'

When I get inside, the doors shut

And the lights go off

Damn, another trap

I hear a hissin' sound, I smell a funny smell

I gasp, I can't breathe

Ignorance is laughin' at me

Waitin' on my downfall

But he can't stop the Prophet

(Well, Prophet, it's seems like you're in a bit of a jam)

(I hope you can unstick yourself)

(Oh, and what you did to my wife)

(It was nothing, I have others)

(The saga continues)
