Bismillah (In the Name of God) Ladies and gentlemen welcome to The Elements Fire, Air, Water, Earth The Elements Nature, and lovers And science, and summers And lions, and hunters I will not be above The rest I, be humble And One Love, I will be the last one to swim deep In the deep end where I can't swim In this big blue vast and calming Soul-Ocean And I sleep and dream about My pen and paper think about writin poems The canvas is the paper and the mindspace with the pen are the potions Like magic I make entire worlds so vibrant that I'm just so gone Ay yo it's verbal alchemy I'm usin' abtruse words absurd to create magic see The canvas leaves, I stampen thee I can talk about governments The corruption of just some of them, Or nothingness, destruction of the crumbling Ruins of my heart, darkened by the evil wind that society has brought And I was always taught to share with others, create peace, and avoid drugs But my nation has become such that it became commonplace But soon shall be the day when it will become just too late The Last Day will surely come So before that happens, listen to what the Prophet said Through my rhymes I educate, create an abstract world Through which those without a voice can now be suddenly heard And I will Teach through my rhymes Speak With the time that it takes To say what I've got to say And this is not the ending or the beginning It's a page In the book of ruminations That I created today And I hope you will all listen And make your own book, hey This is AcidFlow Featuring The Elements

You all can call me army of two, And not the videogame, but I'm sorry it's true Like Yin and Yang, my one soul is split insane On a different plane, my spirit sang Songs of hidden pain, till the cirrus came, with wind and rain On my window pane. And I speak about what I'm saying, Still the same, With some wave-lengths that go and hit your brain. With some strange truth about my spirit, man. And the same roots are in the winter plains Of tree-trunks that don't have any dinner man. Too much humus. And the losers become the true winners when False illusions in my ocean swim away. And tutors became students, and learnt a lot from the page Of Confucius and the stupor of the mantra overcame. And true wisdom came from winter bringin' us ice blizzard-rain. But the spirit sang a deeper song, wit red fire hittin' flame. My soul's singing deeper like Aretha sings in my speaker tone. And the shadows hidden creep up when I'm sleeping and think of sheeps in dome. Then I'm on my deeper zone And I never speak alone 'Cuz I got a secret clone, None of y'all had even known. He produce my deeper poems. And the soul, rise With the strength of burning suns. I'm hopin that you stay on paths Of Greatness 'cuz the light is bliss And darkness will recite its hiss (So bright) So hiding from the tide of life (I will not see) Will not be something in your sight (Precious like the stars) So look up at the stars tonight (I see it with the spirits in my soul) Open your eyes. Light will defeat dark.

This world that I see through The lens of the people With nearsighted vision That hinders their living Truth isn’t given Through your television; It’s just a window that promotes more division. The physical presence of light bearing essence Is never acknowledged by those who don’t get it. Forget it, What’s the point of me telling you, if you’re never gonna listen? The heart and the intellect must align for you to ascend with the mystics Fear of the unknown Is keeping you trapped in a bubble of comfort, But growth won’t relax. And perhaps, It’s your path to relapse and repeat, But retreat and surrender do equal defeat. Don’t give up the pursuit If it feels right then do it. The nay sayers naysay unless you can prove it. But proof isn’t clear For those who pretend though It’s harder to see through their broken windows. The window refracts All the light and collapses The fright of Iraqis And sight of the tank beast And Heaven is through broken windows, it's true Remember the proof, that you into it too It's easy to see if you gold or you simple A symbol that singles the sinners alone If the broken window is bigger than your home And it opens, then spoken is Lord of the Throne Listen homes, That's when you know that you passed All your tests So relax All the rest Is the past And the best is the present, So never fall back. And what if you could Moves yo' shoes and Get in tune with Inner spirit? And the truth's from Revolution Wisdom clear it rings, Ya' hear it And the soul transmuted golden, Always rowin' on this ocean To the destination of slayin' our Satans. We bracin' for snakes but we came here for tamin'. Workin mystics, and ascetics, move away cuz we are blessed with True secrets of ether, that the people speak of But they guessed it. And sleepers that reproduce the dreams of those Not on the guest-list (Whispered) Of Heaven (In Background): Let him take me... (Singing) ...Home, home My feet don't wanna go roam, roam Just wanna sit beside home And I will always be peering through Broken Windows Broken Windows Broken Windows

I'm walkin' about a road Talkin' about the gold At the end of this lonely road I'm walkin about so slow And stoppin' to look at snow (snow) Hoppin' inside the shore (shore) Lookin' at all the scores Of heavenly sights in store (store) Is this reality a paradox? A sample b, to stare above? You sharin' love, you care enough? About humans, humanity, it's scarin' us How it's rapidly and tragically Transforming to insanity And vanity The tapestry of life has been stained black and see Our actions we, be snappin' on each other Army captains leave to smack some deep Harrassment see when Afghans bleed And Iraqis, Sri Lankans b, the Tamils bleed And Somalis, East Africa, Italians had done captured see Attackin people, but let's just have some peace (Chorus) Highway Takin' off on and then I say That's when I see sun- Rise, day Brought upon us by, Yahweh And I pray for peace Allah give me peace (x5) Movin' about the sky Too many people die And mistakin' all the statements though 'Till truth is a bunch of lies And I'm asking myself just why And relax and remember ride Through the sad in November, crackling embers Highway of our lives My GPS is set to reach a final destination, I’ve traveled for some time the road is just a test of patience. Follow the signs and signals, trust the divine will bring you, guidance to help you on your path by meeting different people It’s not enough to want it, you have to seek and find, request awareness for recognition of truth in time You have the vehicle, the vessel that you’re breathing through, the openings you’re seeing through, aren’t all there is to me and you They say life is a journey, it’s not a destination, so what’s your navigation, love and light or fear and hatred The point I’m trying to make is the time is now to take the path of peace; the cheek on either side has to be turned adjacent I’m not anti violence, nor am I anti war, I choose to say I am pro peace; that's what I'm driving for? Your tires must be balanced; the road will push and pull, Love is the fuel source, make sure your tank is full. (Chorus) Highway Takin' off on and then I say That's when I see sun- Rise, day Brought upon us by, Yahweh And I pray for peace Allah give me peace (x5) Movin' about the sky Too many people die And mistakin' all the statements though 'Till truth is a bunch of lies And I'm asking myself just why And relax and remember ride Through the sad in November, crackling embers Highway of our lives You're a slave to lustful Desires therefore The poor are ignored While you rule with bellies full. I pray to keep my distance from the sickness of your soul. 'Cause greed is disease of the heart with no control From Congo to Tibet Palestine to Mozambique The weak are often silenced for the freedom that they seek But they won't accept defeat Rather die standing Than live on bended knees Enslaved to the laws Of a corrupt regime Yeah we pray to live in peace Awaiting for the day to see All our children running free But will that truly ever be? Will we ever know? Maybe when our soul Travels deep to the unknown Then we'll realize There's another place to go Depending on the deeds Accumulated in this road Reaping what we sow The struggle of the self Is like a preparation For the next abode Por isso eu tento Sentir a Tua dor Rimando pra alcancar A Justica e o amor! (And that is why I try to feel your pain Rhyming to establish Justice & Love) (Chorus) Highway Takin' off on and then I say That's when I see sun- Rise, day Brought upon us by, Yahweh And I pray for peace Allah give me peace (x5) Movin' about the sky Too many people die And mistakin' all the statements though 'Till truth is a bunch of lies And I'm asking myself just why And relax and remember ride Through the sad in November, crackling embers Highway of our lives

Spittin rhyme-schemes to change your mind, seen. Like hittin Seinfield to changin' lines see Sit inside TV, ain't no stoppin the epitome of the conscious speak It's poetry, a poet speaks through my leaves, a poet-tree The Elements, but that's why I'm never settlin For anything that's lesser than Most glorious perfection and Oh snap. Time for prayer. Allahu Akbar (God is the Greatest) Allahu Akbar (God is the Greatest) Allahu Akbar (God is the Greatest) Allahu Akbar (God is the Greatest) Ash-hadu alaa illaha ilAllah (I bear witness that there is no God except Allah) Ash-hadu alaa illaha alAllah (I bear witness that there is no God except Allah) Ash-hadu anna Muhammadur Rasulullah (I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah) Ash-hadu anna Muhammadur Rasulullah (I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah) Hayya'alas Salah (Come to Prayer) Hayya'alas Salah (Come to Prayer) Hayya'alal Falah (Come to Success) Hayya'alal Falah (Come to Success) Allahu Akbar (God is the Greatest) Allahu Akbar (God is the Greatest) Laa ilaha illAllah (There is no God except Allah)

I use big words 'cuz my vocabulary is large ...See, it's tragic (very) that we start Off in Montessori, with a lot Of words, So absurd that now to be heard, you can't be a nerd But my vocabulary is large So I leave my adversaries all scarred And I'm tappin' every button to restart Life but it happens to be, so far Off and in between Lyrical symmetry, never illiteracy, I'll start a revolution to the stars To underground, to mainstream, but they scream All in awe 'Cuz we come around, and then they'll see trains steam, railroad cars We tearin' up the track to the end from the start I spit conscious reality And mainstream spit slave schemes Of nonsense insanity Quite insanely Like Rihanna be But maybe, just maybe, some day be the sunrise when they see That knowledge is the greatest weapon under the heavens and it saved me. And I'm reppin' no one but me and my precious weapon, my baby. And in seconds, when you heard this, y'all just slept in. HA That's crazy I'm still steppin' while y'all restin', Devil crept in, he don't phase me And then I proceeded to teach him a deeper sly lesson. See intelligence makes you among the eminent. But not asking any questions and staying ignorant 'aint never bliss. The pen is mightier than the sword, and the mind is more precious than the gold. Knowledge, perception, lessons from the best in perfection of intentions, while we in adolescence. Abstract concepts are child's play Add math content to your mindstate We spittin' metaphors to keep it real in this Ebedded gold by lettin' go of lesser ropes forever go to pseudo-bliss 'Cuz ignorance ain't bliss, and synonyms are hissed like a snake atop a mountaintop strikes without a fist At any livin' creature that dares to evoke its hiss Knowledge is the secret, and this road just leads to sheep herders and sea-ether Valleys, deep-feeder fish, in fresh water streams of bliss Follow this, This is the Way of the Seekers, This is the Way of the Seekers. (Outro): The philosopher Socrates had taught for us to realize our ignorance. But today's society so dumbed down it's just ridiculous

And when I see the world for what it is So absurd, I.. ..break down the barriers Of culture and my area So much hysteria, so I'm ridin' out my chariot To Arabia and Syria, lands of the Sharia And then to Africa, and lands of malaria Then Saskathewan, a land of the prairy dogs And, Venice City, the land of the ferry bus And the way I step it, this dance gonna' carry us To all of the world, and planned next is Barrie's up My flight's just arrived so I should hurry up Embrace all the whole world in my palms, dawg I'm serious Holdin' the world in my hands, dawg I'm always palmin' it Like the referred Atlas in Olympus when he sovereign. Racism, the problem is that I try on stoppin' it And solvin' it Through the greatest example of what the Prophet did. Muhammad did. Peace be upon him. So I'm coppin' it Like an honest kid Not a communist economist. Nonsense is not my prerogetive. I just Robin-spit in the hood, where I teach what Mahatma did Or could To the kids in the hood, Y'all should just gain knowledge, 'cuz it's good. For your literate soul. And make you prosperous and proper with the populace It's flawless this (Chorus) Routine rides Poutine fries Est-que tu Francais? Or are you from Dubai? I can see it in your eyes Bluer than the sky 'Cuz one more tour around this here I fly around a plane to The Gambia I've been all around the world and I've noticed one thing and it's fo'sho God works in mysterious ways made it all beautiful every culture's got ladies more beautiful than centerfolds and international cuisine I eat until my stomach's full I've seen the innocence in childrens' eyes all across the globe and it's got me wondering why hate has a stranglehold even tho we're different we're all cut from the same mold and ignorance is boring me your arrogance is getting old you should meet my crew you'd say we're a UN meeting whether we be playin' texas hold'em or we're doin' late night eating watching UFC Talkin 'bout which fighters would get beaten or we catching flicks and discussing what we all are reading it's more than just HI AND BYE it's all about community and racism's so far gone it's like we've got immunity the roadmap of life and it's constantly tellin' me to do unto others as I'd have them do unto me (Chorus) Routine rides Poutine fries Est-que tu Francais? Or are you from Dubai? I can see it in your eyes Bluer than the sky 'Cuz one more tour around this here I fly around a plane to The Gambia I'm on a world tour with the L of my hand, Went straight to a girl's school in Afghanistan. Then I rest a little while in the Fillippino Isles And I smile 'cuz my style is to travel more miles Then I end up in Japan, Iran, Give my Salam To Sudan, Le France, and the Grand Can-yon (In French) N'importe ou, Je parle avec tous le langue reflet vous (And no matter where I go, I speak in the language that reflects you) Speak the language of the soul, In the deserts or the snow, Never spoken, never wrote, Only heard up in the grove (In Arabic) Feehaa ar-ruh, wa laa hadha makruh, wa maa al-habb wadood (therein the soul, not makruh, what is love, love) And that's eternal truth. And Mozambique has got the heat And so does Middle East And beach where two seas meet And green seaweed and two tea leaves (In Pashto) Chartha za goram, kho alta ba zamong wal Kason wa korum, zamoong wal dee. (Wherever I look, over there my people's houses will also be ours) If we all live under one house of humanity. (Chorus) Routine rides Poutine fries Est-que tu Francais? Or are you from Dubai? I can see it in your eyes Bluer than the sky 'Cuz one more tour around this here I fly around a plane to The Gambia

I got nothing to live for and nothin' to die for. Lookin' through the daily news, Abusin' dudes who had no shoes Pain and suffering while people were hustling in Darfur But compare that to my homeland, I was losin and lost love, again, So damn hardcore. They start war, Why do I even work hard for? When I ran away to the land of braves, my heart tore I used to live in the lost core of my nation Bosnia, Just like Somalia, the way that I lived was all poor Poverty was my father, just like that Star Wars Millions died around me, my parents, my family swept away like mopped floors. My mother's dying wish was for this body to be a doctor But what for? To help cure all the people, stuck in this lethal decietful, war monster Whether minaret or church steeple the preachers were evil, slayed sleepin creatures, and even, cops were I lost everyone I knew and loved, my aunt, my uncles, older sis, and litle bruh, My cuz', and my father. (Chorus) Gotta make my dreams come true But I just don't know what Ima do Everytime I try to reach out The ice puts me back to sleep And I try But the ice Is too deep for me to wake Gotta get up do whatever it takes When I came to the USA, to get myself a new blessed way Of livin' Stayed away from linen In Hotels I lived in I was allergic But they were allergic to me Cuz I went to Friday sermons They were cursin, sayin I wasn't worth it, Please I needed that job, do you agree That the principles of this nation tell us that all men are free? But subliminal bigotry is the substance that yall breathe! "Sir will you just leave!? Get out my office 'fore I call police. This nation, United States, this country Isn't for little terrorist scum, you see. You're a Muslim, little hoodlum, just go find a job in Brooklyn!" I already told yall people I was lookin. But when he said those words, I was so shook then. I took ten, ways tryna make a livin, My attempts, were waste, I was never sittin' With business-men, racism always risen Me dippin to a new low And they cared only for the crude oil I was not ready to lose though (Chorus) Gotta make my dreams come true But I just don't know what Ima do Everytime I try to reach out The ice puts me back to sleep And I try But the ice Is too deep for me to wake Gotta get up do whatever it takes And as I sat there feeling lonely All alone without a job, Had no homies, no one knows me So I called out to my God Oh my God! Allow me to walk The straight path walked upon a lot By all your Prophets and Saints And I saught this, I ain't gon' Try to be another hater, I painted My life with the sad colours of the shade blue But later on, I had someone I could really relate to, My saviour And together, we as Muslim brothers we set up a Mosque And I knew this was all happening 'cuz I called out to my God And the haters wanna bring me down, but I would never drop And this was just the starting point, boy I would never stop So remember that stumbling isn't falling And if you hustlin' keep on crawlin' Cuz one day you gon' make it through My statement's true Keep that hope burnin' inside of you It's vital dude, a survival tool Inspirin' you to fly out soon We gon' make it through the storm Ice may be all around us, but our hearts are filled with warmth (Chorus) Gotta make my dreams come true But I just don't know what Ima do Everytime I try to reach out The ice puts me back to sleep And I try But the ice Is too deep for me to wake Gotta get up do whatever it takes
