Hip Hop version of track about the absence of creativity and logic in peoples actions and the loss of ties to reason and historical significance.

lyrics

[Verse1:]
Gotta trust your first mind
And stay on your grind
Sights a gift from God for women
So plenty men blind
Delivered by deceivers
To the alter of poverty
The author of confusion
By your foolish authority
Just because she get naked
Don’t mean she tell you the truth
They laugh at your destruction
Welcome competition
Confuse him too
Maybe y’all could kill each other
So she could move to another
Laying undercover
Lying undercover
Smile when it’s discovered
When you met her she was cheating
And you thought she could be trusted
Falling off your square
Because she swear that she cares
As sure as I’m a writer
She ain’t nothing but a liar
Using her body as a broker
To take her up higher
Now your life is like hell fire
The gods don’t do excuses
Or tolerate loosing
Get yourself together sun…

I guess the bridge is falling

[Verse 2:]
Ones have to wake up
And take up space
On all opponents
And your hardest competition Is always yourself
Why I gotta take you to the river
And beg you to drink
Bring you lessons from the books
Then beg you to think
Beg you to fight
Like life aint a reason for light
All you life lived in darkness
Now you recite
The most ridiculous lyrics
From the most remedial songs
Underutilize your brain
Now your thinking is wrong
Your seeds all confused
Cause you singing they songs
You whole demonstration
A misinterpretation
I remember when the music
Use to have a message
4 minutes and some seconds
Were full of plenty lessons
The people gained the blessings
Of the universal laws
As we manifest them
The lessons we gave
On how not to be a slave
Now you mis-educated
And happy in they chains?

I guess the bridge has fallen

[Verse 3:]
They motivated by money
And money is based on nothing
The people used to mean something
Now the youth are disconnected
That’s why the planet
Disrespect them
Teach them to be silent
Unless the projecting
Everything is o.k.
No matter what child died today
The overall message is OBEY
A lesson from an ol’ Bey
Circle 7 all day
UNIA NOI BPP
The Black Arts Movement
Anything for our people’s improvement
Has now been excluded
And it’s reflected in our music
Are the people that empty
To simply lay down their crown
It’s all upside down
In every damn town
They ashamed to be Black
It’s a natural fact
Look at how we act
The odds have always been stacked
But this has never been
The way that we react…
I guess the bridge is falling
