Babylon
[Intro]
Yeah. And just like that, we back. Let me catch you up. Unh
[Verse]
I been movin like a vagabond
Packed up all my shit and
Got the fuck up outta Babylon
Booked myself an avian
While drinkin on some Evian
Sippin on some whiskey
While we fly over the Carolines
Struck some conversation
With my neighbor, she's from Lebanon
Told her that I came
To kick the mic like Louis Farrakan
And build another life
And maybe find a change of maritime
Probably ice my neck out
Cause I’m African American
Got to Austin, Texas
Fast as packages from Amazon
Been trying to fit my life
Inside a backpack and a carry on
You know how niggas carry on
And splurge til they confetti gone
I sing a Serengeti song
A history of petty poems
That really get the medley goin
You niggas know the source indeed
An Africana sorcery seed
That sprouted at a warped speed
And metamorphed into a god
Who second-lined the boulevard
And slowly sipped boulevardiers
And dodge between the pully cars
Yeah.. Man I been
Knocking back them sazeracs
Smoke like I got cataracts
Been chokin out in cadillacs
Bananas that go rat-a-tat
Been tappin in my pattern app
To see just where my Saturn at

You have a whole number of things here, a whole set of relationships here, in which they are following the Egyptians. Now, look: the Americans discover Sirius and they use it at a base for establishing certain things, you cannot show that they were related to Egyptians in the least. Anybody can do that. But if Egyptians look out into the sky and they say: "I see a serpent catching its tail in this constellation. I see a crab in that constellation. I see a virgin in that constellation. I see a ram in that constellation." And then, the man thousands of miles away is seeing a ram and a crab and a virgin and a serpent catching its tail, and there's no such thing in the heavens...Then, something extraordinary has happened
