Gift to the people, interloper to evil,
Presented as a savior ensurin’ people together,
Let no man put you asunder and find your truth in a number,
I help you brace for lightnin’, avoidin’ the crash of thunder.
Barrage of intellectual lyrics snipin’ your camouflage,
Cover blown and secrets are leakin’, corporate sabotage,
The lessons I adopt are ones I’m takin’ to the top
My elevation’s automatic, you’re hopin’ it stops.
My presentation’s cinematic, no watchin’ the clock,
Get me confused with a monster terrorizin’ the block,
A higher learnin’, resist the burnin’ sensation
Impatient, makin’ your current situation disconcerting
You’ve got nothin’ to fear, it’s unbecoming
We’re all awaitin’ the second coming but
Evolution is near.
Knowledge is power, my character has diminished
Willin’ to climb the tower, eleventh hour is finished
I’m soarin’ higher than pilots reachin’ the Pire
Goliath lookin’ in fear as I banish him to the fire
Summoned to the capital as a symbol of hope
Population is lookin’ upwards, inspired like I’m the f*ckin’ Pope
The crowd’s chantin’ “Solomon is Beholden!”
A potent sun, entrusted as leader cause I’m the chosen one
I’m presented as a trophy that you could gaze at
Lookin’ to gettin’ schooled? Then call Professor Rutegeza
Find yourself in his class, and you’re hopin’ he lets you pass,
But you’re shaken, takin’ your broken bag, waitin’ to claim your token back
So face the end and meet your doom by execution
Sacrifice a necessity, the value of a human
Confucius knowledge! The victor warrants polished positions
Callin’ colleges to acknowledge his recent flawless admission
You’ve got nothin’ to fear, it’s unbecoming
We’re all awaitin’ the second coming, but
Evolution is here.
