society of soul - brainchild lyrics

[intro: efrem simms jr.]
i just wanna learn somethin’
+baby crying+
i just wanna learn somethin’

[hook: society of soul, big rube]
life’s so cold, there is no death
i’m so free, trapped in me
where would i go if i could leave
what offspring would my mind conceive
nurture yo’ brainchild, protect yo’ soul
nurture yo’ brainchild, may we all grow

[verse 1: big rube]
everything is fluid, no matter how solid
no matter how thin, it all flows
as thoughts wash over my brain
i can’t maintain or contain one thang
a young brother filled with anger
leaves his house with one in the chamber
what he gon’ do, get paid or get in debt?
he’s going to hurt another black man
hurt his+self or hurt me, sure bet
for whatever reason, he’s committing treason
as his finger embraces that soul+less mechanism
and the nitrate combustion sends steel to my chest
time slows to a snail’s pace and i’m frozen
as the cap twists counterclockwise
wishes of a vest or at best not to have been chosen
if this brother knew me, if i knew me, if we knew us
we wouldn’t be here
if he knew of osiris and the milky nile of the heavens
or the peace of the ethiopians
and how they kept pushin’ through strife
his soul wouldn’t be in pain
as his wrist snapped back his eyes squint slightly
you can see and smell the micrograins of powder
as the stiletto drills through my clothin’ and skin
my chest is on fire as the intruder infiltrates
my muscle tissue and tears into my heart
like a parasite of souls allah gives me dap
and won’t let go, sn+tchin’ me from darkness
and i feel sorry for the one who sent me here
cuz now he’s left all alone with our foes
[hook: society of soul, big rube]
life’s so cold, there is no death
i’m so free, trapped in me
where would i go if i could leave
what offspring would my mind conceive
nurture yo’ brainchild, protect yo’ soul
nurture yo’ brainchild, may we all grow
ohhh i would go (flow)
flow (flow)

[verse 2: big rube]
the primary force that separates human from beast
is the soul the primary force that links
the soul to the body is the brain
the slowest of these to develop
on the whole needs specialized attention
because like the body, the brain needs food
and like the body, the wrong food
keeps the brain functioning but not properly or healthy
we must learn, fly free of the mental lockdown
be a real n+gga, hold your f+ckin glock down
let it burn a little while and it’ll get straight
reading is fun, understanding is fundamental time won’t wait
nurture yo’ brainchild, protect yo’ soul
nurture yo’ brainchild, may we all grow
[hook: society of soul, big rube]
life’s so cold, there is no death
i’m so free, trapped in me
where would i go if i could leave
what offspring would my mind conceive
nurture yo’ brainchild, protect yo’ soul
nurture yo’ brainchild, may we all grow
ohhh i would go (flow)
flow, flow, flow

life’s so cold, there is no death
i’m so free, trapped in me
where would i go if i could leave
what offspring would my mind conceive
nurture yo’ brainchild, protect yo’ soul
nurture yo’ brainchild, may we all grow
