I Self Devine:

Intro (ISelfDevine):

Yo, yo, it's a critical thing, nahmean? I’m down for revolution on all aspects, but before I even proceed to doing anything, nahmsayin', I gotta dig deep within myself, see what I’m dealing with… You know what I mean? See what I’m all about…See my strong points and weak points… know what i'm saying? Knowing I be dealing with hypocritical aspects. I'm divine creation no doubt, but the revolution start at Self

ISelfDevine:

I'm a protagonist, contagious, no power to be a racist

Control laws with flaws to make people move... places

Original, sun and star, sinister, lost follower

Felonist, in my upward spiral where heaven is

Higher conscious lies dormant in the mind frame

Activated by the heat supplied through the sun ray

Visceral effects, 8 millimeter flicks, kill the leader next

Overthrow the government conglomerate

Walking on knuckles with bruised arches, I ego trip

Compassionate and callous, at the same time, losing grip

Illustrious word sound, the earth bound

The art of awareness, I’m careless and profound

Misogynistic, destructive, corrupting

The inescapable chamber of hell got me suffering

Manipulator ?gather world for? coordinator

Father and a King, striving for divine-ness the highness

Smoking blunts like I breathe constant

The un-obscured vision of the nonsense

Minus the content

Chorus:

Deal with duality, roll with a cavalry

Myself I'm battling

Truth or reality, I'm dismantling

Myself I'm battling

Control is the strategy, handle your anatomy

Myself I'm battling

I lay it on the line, Self revolution time

Myself I'm battling

I'm six-by-eight strip cells, my shit smells

Self-war, holy Jihad inside my tin bell

Sex predator,' nuff intercourse deepest embrace

Clouds of rain open radiant flowers to gain strength

Example illustrating much movement

Free as a child unburdened by the bullshit

Chaos and abandonment, self conscious management

Run through emotion and fear, the most scandalous

Alpha-male failure, thief and extortionist, vandalist

Bubbling straight out Los Angeles

South Minneapolis, Atlantis the mo-

I said, plans and existence is damaged, examine it

Depressed at attempts at the rap game, handled it

Shot forty times in the brain, still resilient

Brilliant, building on squares I feel militant

Appropriation of culture is rampant, you feeling it?

Phenomenology, word pharmacy, odyssey

Sling-blade artistry I'm slaughtering

Sound-wisdom in the form of creation

Spiritual rebirth is first for my nation, I'm Jesus

No need for church, I roll tours

Black hypocrite, blasphemous, atheist

What they yelling -- holy water to the melon

Angela Davis battling Reagan, stay numb

I read Malcolm, Franz Fanon outcome

I got a complex, hypocrite, outdone

Analyze

Chorus:

Deal with duality, roll with a cavalry

Myself I'm battling

Truth or reality, I'm dismantling

Myself I'm battling

Control is the strategy, handle your anatomy

Myself I'm battling

I lay it on the line, Self revolution time

Myself I'm battling
