Bismillah ir rahman ir raheem *
If you can hear me ladies and gentlemen
Then iand'm very happy that you came here..
Ooh ooooooooooohhhh ooh ooooooooooooooohh wheeeee!!!
That was for brooklyn..
Ha ha we get it everytime
You got me on? ohh
Shout out to all of my crew east west north south
All the continent europe all abroad international
Bring it in bring it in bring it in bring it in
Itand's a lot of things goin on yand'all
21st century is comin
20th century almost done
A lot of things have changed
A lot of things have not, mainly us
We gonand' get it together right? i believe that
Listen.. people be askin me all the time,
andquot;yo mos, whatand's gettin ready to happen with hip-hop?andquot;
(where do you think hip-hop is goin?)
I tell em, andquot;you know whatand's gonna happen with hip-hop?
Whateverand's happening with usandquot;
If we smoked out, hip-hop is gonna be smoked out
If we doin alright, hip-hop is gonna be doin alright
People talk about hip-hop like itand's some giant livin in the hillside
Comin down to visit the townspeople
We are hip-hop
Me, you, everybody, we are hip-hop
So hip-hop is goin where we goin
So the next time you ask yourself where hip-hop is goin
Ask yourself.. where am i goin? how am i doin?
Til you get a clear idea
So.. if hip-hop is about the people
And the.. hip-hop wonand't get better until the people get better
Then how do people get better? (hmmmm...)
Well, from my understanding people get better
When they start to understand that, they are valuable
And they not valuable because they got a whole lot of money
Or cause somebody, think they sexy
But they valuable caause they been created by god
And god, makes you valuable
And whether or not you, recognize that value is one thing
You got a lot of socities and governments
Tryin to be god, wishin that they were god
They wanna create satellites and cameras everywhere
And make you think they got the all-seein eye
Eh.. i guess the last poets wasnand't, too far off
When they said that certain people got a god complex
I believe itand's true
I donand't get phased out by none of that, none of that
Helicopters, the tv screens, the newscasters, the..
Satellite dishes.. they just, wishin
They canand't really never do that
When they tell me to fear they law
When they tell me to try to
Have some fear in my heart behind the things that they do
This is what i think in my mind
And this is what i say to them
And this is what iand'm sayin, to you check it
All over the world hearts pound with the rhythm
Fear not of men because men must die
Mind over matter and soul before flesh
Angels for the pain keep a record in time
Which is passin and runnin like a caravan freighter
The world is overrun with the wealthy and the wicked
But god is sufficient in disposin of affairs
Gunmen and stockholders try to merit my fear
But god is sufficient over plans they prepared
Mos def in the flesh, where you at, right here
On this place called earth, holdin down my square
Bout to do it for yand'all, and yand'all at the fair
So just bounce, come on bounce
B-b-bounce b-bounce b-bounce-bounce
And just..
.. just step two three
Just step two three and
Step two..
Two three and..
One two three and four
One two three and four
Once again
All over the world hearts pound with the rhythm
Fear not of men because men must die
Mind over matter and soul before flesh
Angels for the pain keep a record in time
Which is passin and runnin like a caravan freighter
The world is overrun with the wealthy and the wicked
But god is sufficient in disposin of affairs
Gunmen and stockholders try to merit your fear
But god is sufficient over plans they prepared
Mos def in the flesh, where you at, right here
On this place called earth, holdin down my square
Bout to represent in your whole atmosphere
Bout to represent in your whole atmosphere
To your atmosphere, to your atmosphere
Oh-ooooooohhhhhhhhhh!
That was for you - and brooklyn too!

Fear not of man
