*Lyrics*

[Hook: Base Jase]

If you Didn't know nothing now you know what's good
If you Didn't know nothing now you know what's good
If you Didn't know nothing now you know what's good
You got to get that poppin' in yo neighborhood
[Repeat]

[Verse 1]

Samir

It's that magical rap genius, life changing experience
Night journey miraculous, to heaven and back on a pegasus
Exodus. Movement of the people, not promised tomorrow
Leaders know when to follow, Sitting Bull with an arrow

Aja

Empress and the pharaoh, walking on the straight and narrow
In the desert of the hallows, armed and ready for the battle
Side by side like double barrel (Fire 'Pon the shaytans)
Shine a light upon the shadow and tell them to get gone

Samir

Im like Garvey Ghazali Gandhi, you scared of illuminati
I'm drumming with Bobo Shantis, saluting Haile Selassie (True King)
Lion leadership, my army right behind me
Family stay protected, respected by those who spy on me

Aja

In the jungles of jamaica sipping coconut water
Yoga posing in the sun, with my husband, son and daughters
Chanting down babylon, bless up wicked down
And in case you didn't know (You now rocking with the champion sound)

[HOOK]

[Verse 2]

Aja

You know the team stay supreme with the culture and class
Way above all the lies, smoke mirrors and flash
Always listening for the hissing of a snake in the grass
We cut them off at the head quick, easy, and fast

Samir

Reminders quick blast from the past and future
Young voices, old souls heavenly mixture
Blessed with the best universal scriptures
Always felt once heard people jumping in rapture

Aja

We focus on our goals, ignoring competition
Overcoming obstacles from every angle and position
Armed to the teeth, our words the ammunition
We execute the mission with articulate precision

Samir

So clear that the meaning never lost in translation
Written long ago some need proof from confirmation
This invitation for every true and living being
Whether you already hip your soul we still freeing

[HOOK]

[Verse 3]

Samir

We double edge sharp, star binary
Deep in the dark, cross trouble call it blind fury
Two unified forces, powerful voices can never die
So we stay focus, keep it together forever fly

Aja

Im trying to do the right thing like radio Raheem
Steal the key from the oppressor, set the caged bird free
And I'm pacing to cadence of Coretta Scott King
Betty Shabazz, Assata, Angela and Kathleen

Samir

Most on that Holy Mountain, Solomon Temple
I spit that heavy mental, fundamental flow so progressive
Way over protective when it comes to me and mine
Stay a couple of steps ahead cause i got to keep that shine

Aja

And it be bright enough to blind, blood-sucking vampires in dem eyes
Trying to get up in the cypher like a devil in disguise
The creator all knowing, all seeing, all wise
The truth live forever but the lies all die.

[HOOK]
