[Intro: Rakaa]

Nah man, sometimes I just vibe out, right?

Get lost, just to find a new way home or something

Nah, sometimes I just like to cruise up top, where I go

Get a good perspective on everything

And I see it all like...

[Verse 1: Rakaa]

I’ve seen the first black, first fam, After M.O.P

I’ve seen Tony Hawk skate the White House, roam free

I’ve seen idealist expectations

And raw racism in the age of misinformation

I’ve seen how delicately the world spins

Political tightrope, slip, the world ends

I’ve seen Barack’s balance, I’ve seen the flocks worship him

But when they get practical, it slowly starts to hurt again

They ask me if I support, I say that I’m a reporter

I’m under no illusion, yes I know they’re under orders

I’ve seen a politician’s hate to feed a thin veil

A few stretch their arm out straight and inhale

The water is all set for Tea Party service, boiling

The government makes free markets nervous

Historic bills, Biden called a “Big Fucking Deal”

Healthcare, but schools are sick, kids suffer still

[Hook: Mad Lion]

With the alignment of the stars, I even seen the fall

From my observatory, I focus and I see it all

(Alignment of the stars, I even see it fall

From my observatory I focus and see it all.)

[Verse 2: Rakaa]

I’ve seen nature show the Golden Ratio, in the ocean

DNA plants galaxies in heavenly motion

To the base of creation, the prime

To the life lived in between modern measured units of time

I’ve seen my line go back to Nine Ether Divine

Heirloom genetics helped, when that pure light shines

The Sekam, the Naiyama, The Chiqui, the Pirhana

Solar Cycle put the extra energy on ‘em

Mitochondria DNA from the Nile

To Henrietta Lacks, ride full circle back to black

The original dynasty to reunite you lambs

Five rulers from Nubia, Kushites advance

Restore order, my diaspora is in everything

Common denominator links bloodlines in every king

I’ve seen Egypt get effects, make-up and editing

For the screen, the Hollywood propaganda machine

[Hook: Mad Lion]

[Verse 3: Rakaa]

I’ve seen Blackwater become XE

They sold parties for the GOP, RNC

Hellraisers connect, VIP Fundraisers for checks

I’ve seen my face on a traitor card deck

I’ve seen few things in my life as irresponsible as that

I broke down the big business of war, it’s a fact

Retail artillery, civilians will be shelled

Collateral, the media flips the details

I’ve seen Halliburton spin-off to KBR

Control power, plus modern slavery for a charge

Oil money so slick, Dick Cheney retired

CEO, the Texas company moved to Dubai

The World Bank is the church, I see worshippers of currency

Then I’ve seen millions turn to billions in emergency

Arms dealing, war profiteering, racketeering by the same ones

Malcom would have called out the hearings

[Hook: Mad Lion]

[Outro: Mad Lion]

Mad Lion, you see me!

Open your third eye vision, don’t listen to the “Tell-Lie-Vision”

Ya see me, them the soldiers in Gideon

Stay focused, we it ain't hopeless, you know this

Ya see me, Dilated Peoples
