Monotony Lyrics - Singles - Afu-ra

[Hook 4X: samples scratched by DJ Premier] 

"Uprising surprising" 

"Knowledge wisdom understanding" 

 

[Afu-Ra] 

Smooth like Johnny Cochran, I keep it movin through Brooklyn 

Base against the hymn, brings the sweat to the skin 

Reminisce of the days as a shorty 

Had no stress, no bills, was comin for me 

I lived it up, yeah, money ain't a thing 

Never thought twice on what my future bring 

Role models, naw I thought nothing of it 

Eyes fixed on skies and planes fly high above it 

Summer's comin, September's middle school 

Mom Dukes mad strict, she'll never raise a fool 

I'm comin up, clean the dirty from the ghetto 

So we can plant some seeds and watch them grow 

 

[Chorus] 

Right, knowledge wisdom understanding rules, right 

Everybody got to pay the dues, right 

Knowledge, wisdom understanding rules 

Everybody got to pay the dues 

 

[Afu-Ra] 

Tripped up by bad luck, 16 years and buck 

I realized the world might end, not givin up 

Stickin up, runnin up, comin up 

Turn it up, I see signs of blowin up 

Study life in every facet of my trainin 

We need masters in biology, zoology 

To overtake, Illuminati trick-nology 

Transform, reciprocate your mental state 

Now make a date to overtake your objective 

Show that through light, that everything is connected 

But not in categories, that's the Devil's story 

Symbols of cannibalism, ruin your vision 

The thoughts formulate in your mind with no precision 

So reenact, a rebirth, now you're the Phoenix 

When shorties see it, now that's the time they believe it 

Achieve it, your goals in life, don't be a casualty 

Infinite and intricate, monument 

 

"Knowledge wisdom understanding" 

 

[Chorus] 

 

[Afu-Ra] 

Right, knowledge wisdom understanding, rules 

 

"Uprising, surprising" 

 

[Afu-Ra] 

I know the next millennium seems like it's cursed 

That's why I have to rehearse 

Tune my physical, mental spits the lyrical 

It's so essential, transcends thoughts I'm into 

As we continue, touch rhyme styles I'm into 

All grown up, Junior High to 25 

A made man, tight connection with my brothers 

Bridgin gaps, dodgin traps with my raps 

Signs you're followin, shed more light 

Then a halogen, take a step back, now who you followin? 

 

[Chorus 2X]
