Ghost of Hammurabi
[Intro]
Alone at the edge of the universe humming a tune
With sparkling crystal souls aglow
A part of thee in the key of what we know to be
Every part without me
Knows only two can make it light
You'll live forever tonight
[Verse 1]
Master of the ceremony
Cerebellum cherub era
Egyptian wing scarab
The king of terror
The god seen in my mirror
I sit between the Tigris and the Euphrates River
It’s the timing and the rhyming that made me a killah
The name Priest camе from the technique
From using scripturе over fresh beats
That you can picture like the Aquarius
Boil at 120 celsius
To pour all over the areas
While walking my feet transform into chariots
The Pumas leaped off, pulling me into the fullest emcee
Fast as a bullet
"The last of Brooklyn," the bulletin reads
The best of the last
How you gonna school the upperclass?
Soon as my pen touch the pad, y’all rappers gonna suffer bad
Outta touch ‘cause y’all want the bag
Just look me up
It’s King Tut in a mask
Holding a golden asp
I arose whenever asked to reclaim my identity and stolen past
From frozen to molten to gas
At last
[Interlude]
Alone at the edge of the universe humming a tune
Or merely dreaming we were snow
A siren sounds like the goddess who promises
Endless apologies of paradise
And only she can make it right
So things are different tonight
[Verse 2]
Water reflects everything
And we’re made up of water so I’m mirroring our universe
Putting everything into this verse
Commanding every king come out the dirt
Commanding every queen come out the church
Let freedom ring, 532 megahertz
Vibrating up to thirty-three vertebrates
To see the celestial bodies to escape
[*sample*] We'll go together in flight
In panoramic, I scan the planet
Rule the weeds, red granite
A true emcee, mathematics
I said the classics
Spread to masses
Prove to be green on plastic
It used to be engraved in tablets
Unity made my fabric
Ghost Hammurabi
Toast to godly
Quotes from Garvey
Smoking parsley
Throats with coffee
Most with sake
Seen Punjabi
Queen Puabi
Dreams of starseeds
Third planet like Queen Wasabi
Roam the Vatican with pink Versace
Front of the seasons where they killed Armani
Dagon, Sargon, King David, Lord Sun
Ghost of Hammurabi
