Forbidden Knowledge (Explicit)

Forbidden Knowledge (Explicit) - Raury/Big K.R.I.T.

Forbidden knowledge can destroy mankind

I spend large hours of my days alone

I don't believe we share this universal space alone

I think we got a lot from them they gave us phones

Internet and know we all know what is forbidden knowledge

Forbidden knowledge is too great for a man

Think if man could read your mind you think that man understands

How to use it with integrity not conquering land

Would it be good if we increased the lifespan well that's forbidden knowledge

Forbidden knowledge can destroy mankind

We can grow out of control like cancer under the skin of Mother Nature

Busy cities much alike to a tumor

Too many cells the residents the body's polluted

I say woosah and alley-oop the the jeweler

Try to make up I know my history I know we are moors

There's a universe in her afro hold us back though

There's a power in the black folk well that's forbidden knowledge

At first they want to keep us separate but equal

But it's not so we fight against the hatred and evil

Now they let us think we got it and they killin' our people

Why does history repeat like a sequel Well that's forbidden knowledge

It's got a man watching TV like people

Rewinding his favorite parts to play it back like it's TiVo

Have I wrote this sh*t before It all feels like a review

And deja vu is left to die like our dreams do but that's forbidden knowledge

I had some shocking memories as a kid

Waking up onto a table a lap some type of fizz

Too vivid to be a nightmare mom would tell me that sh*t

Can't remember anything that he did guess that's forbidden knowledge

Forbidden knowledge

Forbidden knowledge

Are dreams another kind of preview to Heaven

We manifest our reality based on our personality

Coming from sh*t we did since the day we were seven

So did you share toys Or did you masturbate at eleven

I'm just a 90s baby a millennial kid

Indigos are on the rise to make perennial shift

Hope this music stands long as Redwood Sequoias

Pyramids and stones like stones from Stonehenge

Come on let the future tell the truth

Cause you a shell of you

You played your cards wrong now you got hella youth

Be glad I still retain respect for you

Cause I got bullets that'll kill you if your vest is hell and heaven-proof

I'll never understand your corporate greed

Just a group of people all they want is more than they need

Signing off on papers blinded to the pain overseas

Blood resulting from the ink that they bleed but that's forbidden knowledge

Forbidden knowledge

Forbidden knowledge

So who put the liquor store across the street from the gun shop

And the park a hop skip in the dark 'way from the gunshots

That rang out in the neighborhood where the youth's misunderstood

Fighting over concrete squares but the laws just ain't no good

I think their agenda's meant to kill us all

Now what good is education long as you can ball

Standin' on the couch inside the club and hit the mall

Barely feed a bum but you buy it all

Think they laughin' at us cause while we're watchin' some cable

They was talkin' 'bout the economy sharecroppers and stables

How to keep the horse runnin' his course give him some blinders

So that he lack remorse for whoever's right beside him

His own kind I pray you dig deeper

If you don't find what you're lookin' for on the surface

The knowledge that you need can't be Nextel chirpin'

You're every bit of worth it not worthless

You kings and queens were meant for better things

Than flexin' on the scene or burstin' out the seams

Of your blouse you told yourself you'd never wear outside your mama's house

Cause the energy it lends puts strong women down down

Brother look you don't need to go to jail just to read you a book

I wonder what Malcolm found after goin' to Mecca

Or the mindstate of Martin after visitin' Selma

The leaders that were slain for speakin' the topic

On the schemers and the reapers of forbidden knowledge knowledge knowledge knowledge

Forbidden knowledge
