Higher Level (更高水平) - KRS-One

Written by：Christopher E Martin/Lawrence Krsone Parker

After seven years of rocking

How do you rate me

Poorly or greatly

Everybody seems to be going for there's lately

Yo mad heads be needing money

So listen very close as I conduct this little study

See it's funny to me you can watch TV

And give up your life trying to be all you can be

In the army

Not knowing your history

You either fight and die or come back home in misery

Yo get with me I deal with reality

Loosen your mind to the truth and don't get mad at me

No politician can give you peace

If you trust Jesus why do you vote for a beast

Emancipation is long over due

So overcome procrastination

Because freedom is within you

For some reason we think we're free

So we'll never be

Because we haven't recognized slavery

You're still a slave look at how you behave

Debating on where and when and how and what Massey gave

You want to know how we screwed up from the beginning

We accepted our oppressor's religion

So in the case of slavery it ain't hard

Because it's right in the eyes of their god

Where is our god the god that represents us

The god that looks like me the god that I can trust

A god of peace and love not mass hysteria

I don't want a god that blesses America

I could never really vote for the devil

Let me take you to a higher level

Title take the title from the bible we can get there

Rip the title from off the front of the bible god don't live there

Too many inconsistencies too many mysteries

Picture the pope and the Vatican laughing and drinking and singing and

Kissing me

I stand with god whether I'm paid or whether I'm crying broke

I like to ask these politicians would Jesus vote

The way we view god is a freaking shame

Church is to blame

We trust god but bomb Hussein

We simply loving the scripture

Same scripture that whipped 'cha

Sooner it'll hit 'cha

Religion's getting richer

With that European version of Christ made into a picture

Our society's getting sicker and sicker and sicker

Like liquor we are god intoxicated

Not to the true god but the one the government created

The same governments telling people to vote

I pray to god because the people have lost hope

You either vote for the mumps or the measles

Whether you vote for the lesser of two evils you vote for evil

Politics and god are not equal

But the education if you don't guard is really lethal

People have more respect for a holy book

Than they do for a cow on a meat hook

Believers of Jesus be denouncing Satan on every level

But every Halloween they're dressing like devils

I pray to you for the light you might give them

Mother make them know that you're living with them

You begin them and end them in silence

Frankly if they knew you they would understand violence

I pray to you for the pope and the Vatican

Have mercy mother cause I know that you're mad at them

The white Jesus deceived us awhile ago

And pope Julius the second paid Michaelmas

I know this happened in 1519 yet

This is the image we can't seem to forget

Vote for god don't vote for the devil

Let me take you to a higher level
