How You Sell Soul [Time Is God Refrain]

We've heard all the great teachings
From Malcolm to Martin
Now we have this last chance
With our brother minister
To rise out of the ashes of slavery
Time is a very important
Element in this journey
We can't continue to be 24 karat dumb
Addicted to retail and bling
Wasting time has spent on nonsense
We got grown men in toy stores
Like little children in candy stores
Buying PS2's 35 and 40
Black men reduced to boys

Time dictates the agenda here time is god

Enough said we got to feed our heads
This shit is piping over the
Pulpit's: TV sets and radios
Hip-hop is moving the masses
We've got to take back our
Children and guide them
When you love something you
Develop the mental capacity
To reach the thing that you love
No more nonsense the airwaves are poisonous
With this gibberish
These grim hymns lack light
We need to get their ass off the mic
If hip-hop is the seeing end of the voices
Why is the dead teaching the dead
We got to end the reign of pimping and ho-ing
And entertainment for the masses
Wasting time on nonsense

Time dictates the agenda here
Time is god (Allahu Akbar)

Some say we only have a little time left
We can use it wisely
To teach, think and rebuild our mental banks
Great people don't ask comedians
Actors and entertainers to lead
Great people produce what we need
For history to record our deeds
As a great nation
Or will we continue to be a
Shell of a once great people
Wasting time on nonsense

Time dictates the agenda here time is god

Soul power
