Wake Up (Reprise in the Sunshine)

Peace to the God

Peace, Allah

Ayo there go that brother Grand Puba

I heard that brother got knowledge of self

Yo, true indeed, brother

Yo, let's have that brother come over and add on to the cipher

Sunshine, everybody loves the sunshine

Folks get down in the sunshine

Everybody loves the sunshine

My life, my life, my life, my life

Ayo, knowledge this

The attribute Haji helper to another God in need He Allah God Islam

As I proceed to civilize the uncivilized word of wisdom to the groove from the wise (Speak on it, God)

I guess I'm like the verbalizer for the fact I'm movin' blackwards

This Asiatic black man is a dog spelled backwards

The maker, the owner, the cream of the planet Earth

Father of civilization, God of the universe

Manifestin' thoughts with my infinite styles

Making sure this travels, twenty-three million miles

The other six I set the crucifix, because the heart of the problem is this (Speak on it, God)

Preacher got my Old Earth puttin' money in the pan for the rest of the week, now I'm eatin' out a soup can

He has a home, drives his Caddy through town

Has my old earth believin' that he's comin' from the ground (Jesus)

Slain are those who fought for what was right

Slayed are those who fell victim to the bite

A drug controlled substance, contained in a vial

Set up by the devil as he looks and he smiles

Good at the game of tricknology

But I have knowledge of myself, you're not foolin' me

You see, the answer to me is black unity

Unification, to help our bad situation

I wrote this on a day of wisdom power

All bein' born to myself (God)

I won't diss the next brother to be paid that's not my trade

It's just the plan that is designed by the colored man

Now our babies are born to think this is the way of us (Way of us)

That's the way the devil wants it so it is no fuss (It is no fuss)

It's just that sad old song self-destruction to stop our reproduction

They put our wisdom before us (Murderrahh)

That makes it wisdom knowledge (Murderrahh)

But we need knowledge, wisdom to bring forth the understanding (Murderrahh)

Culture freedom (Mudererrahh)

Power refinement (Mudererrahh)

Equality, God, Build, Destroy, Born's Our Cipher (Mudererrahh)

Can a devil fool a Muslim?

No, not nowadays, bro

Do you mean to say the devil fooled us four hundred years ago?

Whitey put self, portrayed in many interpretations, sayin' that we'd receive more gold for our labor in his nation

Did we receive more gold?

God, Now Cypher

It's time to drop the bomb and make the devil pay the piper

True indeed, God, true indeed, God (What?)

True indeed, God, true indeed, God (What?)

True indeed, God, true indeed, God (What?)

True indeed, God, true indeed

Sunshine (Wake up, wake up, wake up)

Everybody loves the sunshine (Wake up, wake up, wake up)

Folks get down in the sunshine (Wake up, wake up, wake up)

Everybody loves the sunshine

My life, my life, my life, my life

The solution knowledge of self to better ourself

'Cause I know myself, that we can live much better than this

Nothing's changed, it's just another sequel

The devil's still causin' trouble amongst the righteous people

Drugs in our community (That ain't right)

Can't even get a job (That ain't right)

Poisonin' our babies (That ain't right)

Lyin' who is God (That ain't right)

Well, here's some food for thought, many fought for the sport and the black man still comes up short?

It's time to motivate, build and elevate

Blind deaf and dumb, we've gotta change their mind state

So I dip, dip diver, civilize a 85er

Gotta let him know the devil's a conniver

This is the plan from the brotherman, from the motherland, now it's time to take a stand

I keep strivin' to do my duty to awake 'em to the universal family, I say As-salamu Alaykum

Yeah

Now I'ma do like this

'Nough respects to the Brother Jazzy Jay, 'nough respect

'Nough respects, to my Brand Nubian brothers

Bust it

Lord Jamar, God Allah

Derek X is on the flex

Alamo is good to go

Sincere, the God is in here

So move on, black man, move on

We gotta move on, black man, move on

Move on, black man, move on

We gotta move on, black man, move on

Now before I motivate, I'ma just say like this

Please educate Allah's children with equality

Move on, black man, move on

You gotta move on, black man, move on

Move on, black man, move on

You gotta move on, black man, move on
