[Verse: Jay Electronica] Pigs with the heads of men spat acid That lasered my third eye closed like LASIK A midget in a casket like a baby in a bonnet With a bottle and a basset horn playing the theme song From Children of the Corn, oh I must be dreaming A lady in a night gown puffing kush screaming Signalled me over, "Psst, you with the waves I’ve seen you from the Catholic church steeple diggin' graves I got your number sonny So ain't no use of fighting, yelling or running from me" "I never ran ma'am", "Well then you ain't a clever man Sam" Listen, the two-faced king from Britain and Rome Had a baby in a bush on the grassy knoll Where they peel back the orange head peel of a gnome He said "Hey MC, I know you like killing 'em You terrorized the skies for 25 millenniums Now you settin fire to land You the lion, you the savior, the messiah, the lamb You need back up, you moving on the youth at dawn Call Badu and get Tyrone on the megaphone Tell'em I sent you and your codename is Megatron If trouble comes use your brain like a telephone He'll take you to the Chocolate City Where two-face and the prince of darkness had a Committee of Snakes Drill 'em, let the skin peel off to reveal him Then spray 'em wit them rhymes you like spilling Hit 'em up real, real good but don't kill him We only want to burn him to the point that they willing To give the location of the blank face villain Who split atoms and give mushrooms to civilians Hiroshima never recovered and all the evidence was smothered Under a thick cloud of rubble The pope is his brother The hillsides is his mother That statue with the torch and steel eyes is his lover She's a harlot, who stood still like time while New York turned scarlet And the levee monster sucked up New Orleans While they was playin' man vs. man in Afghanistan With they mind on Iran, Iraq and Sudan Let him recruit you, he will try to use his powers to seduce you Just let him think that the feeling is mutual Because if he found out that you already knew The atom had a positive, a negative and a neutral He'll probably salute you Then wait till you turn your back like a coward and shoot you People this shit is crucial [Outro: John F. Kennedy 1960 Speech] But this administration has failed to recognize, has failed to recognize that in these changing times, with a revolution of rising expectation sweeping the globe, the United States has lost its image as a new, strong, vital, revolutionary society
This song triggered my first Lucid dream (March 2023)... I played it so much that the line "ohh I must be dreaming" got stuck in my head. When I went to bed, that line came back and I started lucid dreaming.
SLEEP IN PEACE to the "King of Styles" Mr. Jeff Brown aka Kase2. One of the original graffiti KINGS from the Bronx and one of the most important figures in early hip hop developement. That clip is from the movie Style Wars in which he appears, freestyling on a subway platform with a young graffiti writer called Dez aka DJ KaySlay. That's some real pure hip hop sh!t right there and only a real hip hop head would know that quote. I had a co-worker ask me if that was from a Wu-Tang album and I just glared at them like smh.😂
@julioortega9996 See how God works tho!!!! You Pana?? To the question, I think Jay heard this verse and knew he had to sign Elect. The album was good but his mixtape was better. Imo.
YES!!! I was looking up DMT, as it is released from the Pineal Gland, through Deep Breathing. I found the SONG and HAD to listen. I recognized the melody right away, as being familiar. About 5 min. later, it came to me. I listened to the “Midnight Express” trailer and BOOM 🤯 - There It Was! Mind Blown! I saw that movie a REALLY LONG Time Ago.
[Verse: Jay Electronica]
Pigs with the heads of men spat acid
That lasered my third eye closed like LASIK
A midget in a casket like a baby in a bonnet
With a bottle and a basset horn playing the theme song
From Children of the Corn, oh I must be dreaming
A lady in a night gown puffing kush screaming
Signalled me over, "Psst, you with the waves
I’ve seen you from the Catholic church steeple diggin' graves
I got your number sonny
So ain't no use of fighting, yelling or running from me"
"I never ran ma'am", "Well then you ain't a clever man Sam"
Listen, the two-faced king from Britain and Rome
Had a baby in a bush on the grassy knoll
Where they peel back the orange head peel of a gnome
He said "Hey MC, I know you like killing 'em
You terrorized the skies for 25 millenniums
Now you settin fire to land
You the lion, you the savior, the messiah, the lamb
You need back up, you moving on the youth at dawn
Call Badu and get Tyrone on the megaphone
Tell'em I sent you and your codename is Megatron
If trouble comes use your brain like a telephone
He'll take you to the Chocolate City
Where two-face and the prince of darkness had a Committee of Snakes
Drill 'em, let the skin peel off to reveal him
Then spray 'em wit them rhymes you like spilling
Hit 'em up real, real good but don't kill him
We only want to burn him to the point that they willing
To give the location of the blank face villain
Who split atoms and give mushrooms to civilians
Hiroshima never recovered and all the evidence was smothered
Under a thick cloud of rubble
The pope is his brother
The hillsides is his mother
That statue with the torch and steel eyes is his lover
She's a harlot, who stood still like time while New York turned scarlet
And the levee monster sucked up New Orleans
While they was playin' man vs. man in Afghanistan
With they mind on Iran, Iraq and Sudan
Let him recruit you, he will try to use his powers to seduce you
Just let him think that the feeling is mutual
Because if he found out that you already knew
The atom had a positive, a negative and a neutral
He'll probably salute you
Then wait till you turn your back like a coward and shoot you
People this shit is crucial

Instant classic.
This beat is a mixture of the Eminem songs called Bagpipes from Baghdad & Medicine Ball.
The beat was made by J-Dilla, inspired from the theme of the movie Midnight Express

@@limpbizkit6245 how better can it get🤨🤔
Anybody realized that same melody is used in the movie midnight express?
THAT IS TRUE
GREAT OBSERVATION
YES!!! I was looking up DMT, as it is released from the Pineal Gland, through Deep Breathing. I found the SONG and HAD to listen. I recognized the melody right away, as being familiar. About 5 min. later, it came to me. I listened to the “Midnight Express” trailer and BOOM 🤯 - There It Was! Mind Blown!
I saw that movie a REALLY LONG Time Ago.
@@WellnessWagon It was also used by Outkast in Return of the G and MF Doom in Gazzillion Ear so maybe recognized it from one of those songs too
Back then Jay Elec was known for rapping over movie scores.
What's up with a vinyl.
