[Verse 1]

The location is planet Earth

The time and date is nineteen, ninety-nine, December thirty-first

Eleven fifty-nine, P.M

The anticipation of what I think's about to happen got my heart beating

We got less than a minute left before

The planet Jupiter is ignited into a star

I know it sounds bizarre, but it's mathematics

A specific sign for some of the planet's inhabitants

Those who understand, know what I'm saying is accurate

Our country is corrupt, from the president to the cabinet

In the year two, followed by three O's

The space probe Galileo will welcome us all to channel zero


[Verse 2]

The secret of the ages, I illuminate with logic

What I speak is more than just deep; it's bottomless

With common sense, I'm organized like crime and mafias

Plus the way I rhyme is prime, like Optimus

A rapologist, you could sit and do the knowledge with

From G.E.D.'s, to degrees, from Ivy League colleges

I politic with any magazine columnist

About topics other emcee's won't even bother with

Rock solid shit like stones and monuments

It's obvious the third eye of the obelisk is watching us

Closely, through a microscope and a pair of binoculars

Ghetto scholars like me, who study street calculus

I utilize every letter of the Arabic alphabet

To touch a part of your body that makes you feel erogenous

The key to knowledge, is guarded by angel locksmiths

Who travel across the Universe, in flying objects

Secrets deadly to man, is dioxin

We sparring with God, our arms are too short to box with

Four thousand years before Christ, in the times of Pharaoh

Welcome to Channel Zero


[Verse 3]

Yo, dangerous minds, manufacture dangerous rhymes

Signs from revelations predict, perilous times

In the year two-thousand, the planets will be in alignment

Only the wisest, will survive it

The Earth will experience, a sudden change in climate

Killing many organisms in our environment

The earthquakes destined to happen in California

Will trigger the Brevard Fault in Atlanta, Georgia

The collapse of roads, bridges, and buildings

The death, of millions of innocent civilians

The Freemasons will control the nation

But you don't hear me though, it's the information
