prox centauri - ode to the iconoclasts lyrics
[intro: quote from franz fanon]
mastery of language affords remarkable power
everything can be explained to the people, on the single condition that you want them to understand
[verse]
determined this sermon is concernin a learned man
i yearn for a turn to stand and furnish these earnest plans
jams gestate so they echo across the landscape
quickening is coming the catalyst for enhanced rates
equipped with weaponized sound to combat the malfeasance
my style’s breathin, reachin for miles while you crowd pleasin
virtuous, -ssertive our motto is never bend or break
we resonate respect you won’t give us, we intend to take
establishment won’t offer support until it’s posthumous
yall peddlin amphetamine i’m tryna push some proper sense
i keep the penance pure, griot or soothsayer
no army but generally they rankin my moves major
want this text to physically greet you like facsimiles
ahead of my breadth gotta cope swiggin black hennessy
but i follow in their steps, know that they have been through there
so my ode to the iconoclasts resembles hymnal prayer
[bridge: quote from aime cesaire]
a civilization that chooses to close its eyes to its most crucial problems is a stricken civilization
a civilization that uses its principles for trickery and deceit is a dying civilization
[verse]
lay my hands on mics and they call it marvels of medicine
this midwestern mastiff is after dogged development
steady carvin an edifice, deadly bars in my rhetoric
ready, every scrawl that you saw is all for this leverage
reversin polarity maybe i can still change the tides
far from holy man but i know that these tracks are sanctified
immortal it’s important, i live longer than saint germain
cortical acrylic each sentence aimin to paint ya brain
good intentions lead to perdition but not stoppin me
i learned that true wealth is in self or the vox populi
cogent with my word so i’ll contribute to the negritude
even if it’s only observed by a nascent few
now i’m thinking bout frantz, aime, and malcolm
we see these efforts elite now will they finally announce em?
but i follow in their steps, know that they have been through there
so my ode to the iconoclasts resembles hymnal prayer
[outro: quote from malcolm x]
i for one believe that if you give people a thorough understanding of what confronts them and the basic causes that produce it, they’ll create their own program, and when the people create a program, you get action
