my fav thread has been quiet lately..
That's exactly what I've been thinking about a lot of times. Cause, you know, people who are saying that their religion is right and the others are not - they are not true followers of the main thing about it. You see - during all human history this misunderstanding and misinterpretation has led to a huge amount of troubles. People were dying centuries ago because of the crusader shit - now people are dying because of muslims who were turned unconsciously on the wrong side. And of course they are being led by some other devils who use people's ignorance in order to achieve some private aims.Quote:
5% is just a title. any mind can live righteously. christianity, along with MANY other religions all lead you up to one principal, whether you see it or not (most religious leaders don't even see it - they're just in it for the power ultimitely), and that principal is LOVE.
Love is the thing. It's about your love to God and about your love to other human beings, which is actually also a love to God.
"My children, all six billion humans
on the planet Earth
Regardless of who or what, I love you
Word is bond, I love you"
^^ That is something we all should work for.
Peace
moved 2 a better place...

[RZA]
Yo... this song is...
Aiyyo Dunn this song is called Sunshower
Cause we approachin the final hour
You know I ahh all I can say to my brothers and sisters right now
Is stay close to your families, and all your loved ones
Cause this globe is about to explode with hatred
They killin for pennies, knahmsayin?
Peace to the Gods, we got a heavy job... yo, yo
Trouble follows behind a wicked mind, 20/20 vision
of the prism of light but still blind
because you lack the inner, every sinner
will end up in the everlastin winter of hellfire
Throw on this mix just picks your third eye out
you cry out your words fly out, and sounds die out
You remain unheard, sufferin eternally, internal external
Along with your wicked fraternal from generals to colonels
Releasin thermonuclear heat that burns you firmly
And permanently upon this journey
Through the journal of the book of life
Those who took a life without justice
will become just ice ice ice
It's been taught that your worst enemy can harm you
as much as your own wicked thoughts
What devils fought we wrought, and let's annoint
Now you're bein persecuted by that universal court court court
Iron hell with the strong blend of rape and blend of sandal
with rose petals and jasmine, as men use talismans
Burn some incense, chantin witchcraft to reach high dimensions
I'm convinced, Allah is God always has been always will be
You could travel every square inch of the planet and still be
Ninety-three million miles away from the sun
Til you realize you and the sun is one, like the knowledge
Know the ledge to where your heart is
or fall off into the internal hell that's uncharted
Light travels at the rate of 186,000 miles per second
through time and space, until it reach a target
And once we're freed of darkness, and show em where the path
Yo as the Red Sea was parted, into these straight
at the narrow gate, but why that's a road to destruction and hate
What you thought life was a sport? A game?
One hundred years short, know the soul is immortal
Walk through many portals, and those who go astray
will pay a judgment day, and these few years of wicked bullshit
ain't worth the eternity inside a sulfur lake
With dragons and snakes, and any pain you can imaginate
Instead, I chose to become a newlywed to the true bread
of life and fed God Degree of light to my head
It's been said, the fool who sleep is already dead, so I stay awake
And take care of my brother, and uncover reveal the skin
so we can see each other, cause every color
that makes the light appear duller, who's the colored man?
Who's the original, who's the biochemical
Who's the grafted digital, digital, digital, digital
Digital.. yo, yo, yo, yo, yo
Two hundred thousand million atmosphere cubic feet of air we breath
While niggaz minds are trapped twenty thousand fathoms beneath
the sea of reality, they can't inhale deep, devils have em
Stagnant, a trapping, the .45 magnum
And shatter bone fragments
Cops love the block you gettin backed up by Dragnet
Thrown into a six by a steel cabinet
Flippin weights readin ancient tablets, back on the block nobody's havin it
Those who haven't learnt get returned
You freaky ass niggaz get burned
Some walk around like they ain't concerned
with the hell goin on inside the world
The body of old men molest little girls
Is it because the girl's breast has swelled
to the size of a woman, although she's twelve
The whole world is sick, sick, sick
Trapped up in six, six, six
I started off as a pawn in this marathon of life
Tryin to carry on, wishin I had a bomb to blow up Babylon
A vagabond, tryin to steal his corpse we're from paragon
goin in circles, like a ferris wheel
Undernourished meals I cherish hope, drown inside the sea of life
Use my third eye for a periscope, and take flight to the edge of night
To far heights so dark that even wit a bright light
you couldn't see a spark of light
While others play ball, ID call, me and GZA Dirty
hangin in halls, bangin on walls
Kickin rhymes three hours straight with no pause
Boostin from Freeport sunrise to Amityville morgue
Kept razorblade between the jaws, breakin all laws
Started out writin fables to makin beats on lunchroom tables
to wearin long cables that hung down to the navel
So pack some crack and fat sacks of skunk
to funnel the P-Funk, smokin woolie blunts
Dust cocktails and primos, shot more dice than casinos
Back when Wu-Gambinos were called F.O.I. MC's
All and together now crew B.C.C.
REC Posse, G.P., D.M.D.
Ol Dirty stalked East New York GZA maintained Franklin Lane
I was going to time with the Jeff, when students got slain
Polo got nervous walked me to Shaolin sent me to Curtis
Took share time in Marquis, New God general contractin service
While Meth Chef and Dead was off the Nu-dol
For white boys who took steroids
Buildin up bicep tricep pectoids and deltoids
Back when our girlfriends was virgins
Cuttin class with Ghost tryin to bag hoes in Mary Birchem
A Maybeldine beacon night school Washington Irving
These young Gods was seekin
Hoes in Westinghouse and Clara Parton and Medina
Girls who sung like Sarafina
On the corner of Belmont and Picket Avenue I seen her
As if I dreamed her
I was dead broke, now I will use key notes to make G-notes
So it's always hope
See subway train run through the city like blood through the veins
To the heart of Medina, but Shaolin is the brain
So take heed to these words
And feel the power of the Sunshower
Approachin the final hour
Power equality, Allah sees everything
Let's come together under the wings
And take flight, Wu-Tang, the saga, Ryzarecta
In your sector
that track blew my damn brain open first time i heard it
Sunshower is incredible......wen i first heard it i completely understood wut the whole concept behind the Cure was.....i fuckin HOPE he releases that album...
anyone want the lyrics to "impossible"? great song as well.
the sunshower is here
those x-rays affect you more than you think.
just to clear up a mistake that i always see in the lyrics to this song online...cuz no1 knows the Staten Island references that Rzas talkin about..
after he says "Gza maintained Franklin Lane" hes sayin he was going to high school at the Jeff, which is Thomas Jefferson high school in Bklyn...its a really bad, rough skool so i guess some students "got slain" ther and then wut hes saying is "Old Earth got nervous, brought me to Shaolin sent me to Curtis"...Curtis is a high school on Staten Island...and then a little after that he says "while Meth,Chef, and Deck was off in NEW DORP"....thats another high school on Staten Island....
doesnt really hav nething to do with symbolism but i just wanted to clear that up for ppl....i live in SI....
and one more thing......can nebody break down these Rza lyrics from the end of Rzas verse in The Abduction???
Rza
...the ice cube link u bought off the jew for 80 geez
was only appraised at 42
gazed upon by the eyes of multitude, of people
who would trade gold for food
i heard Boar's Head kill more than nuclear wars head
and street sons who walk around dressed in all red.."
thats an interesting one.....who can figure it out?
gazed upon by the eyes of multitude, of peopleQuote:

the whole of north america is what he's talking about. I don't know how old this song is but what's goin on in Iraq and other places fits; wherever they've exploited the earth to thier own base end$$$ they are esssentially trading the fruit of the planet away for short term profit. I consider the exploitation of human beings to be in that category as well whether it's killing for oil or making Nike shoes in the phillipines or assisting murderous south american dictators to gain access to resouces. Also the effects can be seen at home rich get richer and the middle class becomes poorer and poorer. Culture wars too: why people like the Wu get angry when some ignorant muthafucka gets on the mic, spits a bunch of bullshit and collects his millions. They're poisoning the youth of the planet everytime they open their mouth. before sunshower starts he says it again...."They killin for pennies....knahmsaying?"
i heard Boar's Head kill more than nuclear wars head
and street sons who walk around dressed in all red.."
This is a guess: either pork or pork eaters cause more death and destruction then nuclear war or gangland battles. Since they would be directly responsible for the first and a bit more indirectly for the second I'd say that's about right. I read that first line like this...
i heard Boar's Head kill more than nuclear wars, head
like he's reffering directly to the listener. Like "didn't you know?"
he could be talking about cops. i dunno. pigs? police have become killers themselves. the all red would be crips. interesting interpretation?
^^i never looked at it that way...yea maybe he was talkin bout pigs...like cops...that they kill more than nuclear bombs or the Bloods (not crips) in the streets...this is a tough one..
I'm not too sure about this one. But, the first time I heard the skit at the beginning of Spot Rushers I got a feeling that Ghost and Rae were talking about global warming. Anyone else think that too?
Nice Gem here

I have read this whole thread and am very happy that people are talking about this,
A lot of the quotes of rhymes have been by a few members of Wu-Tang members namely -
The Rza
O.D.B.
GZA
Killah Priest
Inspectah Deck
Masta Killa
U-God
I have a few other artists that deal with this type of matter -
Immortal Technique
Canibus
Ras Kass
Jedi Mind Tricks
Jus Allah
Ikon Da Mic King
Virtuoso
Sabac Red
Goretex
And I would recommend listening to "Poet Laurete Infinity" Canibus talks about a lot of stuff on symbolism and basically everything under the Sun.
Also "Man Of The Hour" Virtuoso talks some serious amounts of interesting things on that.
Can anyone give more examples of tunes on this type of level of mental?
And does anyone think tahat all the members are on this and if not who is and who is not.
In The Older Gods - Wu-Tang Forever, Raekwon says "Most of my team 5%"
any chance someone could put up a list tunes or any other artist?
Rakim does too.
*clears throat...*
Married to Babylon means that I am a victim of the system and a slave to the white man which causes my woman who is supposed to look up to me as GOD to view me as a pawn. Sideswiped by the white horse could mean cocaine addiction or again the global white supremacist system that most of us believe in. On ODB's verse it says 3 billion 600 abc. Your white head came out my black pussy refers to the history of Abraham Lincoln who they say had a black grandmother which explains some of his features and some say the reason he's on the penny with his face going the other way. It also explains the fact that all human beings are descendants of Africans. All races come from Black which has been scientifically proven which makes the ideology of white supremacy ridiculous. The Black gene is the oldest and the most dominant. This is why they dont teach this in school. This is y there is such a concerted effort by Eugenicists to destroy Black people worldwide. When he says I ran ripvan winkle all forests mountains...he's referring to the time in history when the original man ruled and after the creation of the grafted wicked devil they had to run him out of Heaven/Eden/Africa/Pangaea/Asia or whatever you wana call it because he couldn't survive in the heat and was rebellious to the natural universal laws so they had to run him into the caves and hillsides of Europe because he was not agreeable to get along with in peace. As you can see what they have done with the Earth today with the science of islam while suppressing the masses with their false corrupted version of christ-insanity. When he says Tarzan in a jar and then came out Jane, flinstones in my gravel pit, he's speaking on the scientific, process of breaking the original black gene down (grafting) to bring out the albino mutation and stabilize it (the white race). That's the story of Yacub. The result is the caveman and woman, Jane and Flintstones, respectively. Gravel Pit is the black woman's vagina, the black hole from which all things come from. And Rza says Fine-wine vintage, walked trillions of square inches, meaning as a Black God I have traveled the Earth. 10percentage trying to drain me of my mental strengthage. Heavy wattage knowledge cleans the clots or blockages placed in ourmindbythe devils when they stuck pins and needles in ourheadsmadeusbelieve that there is a God in the sky somewhere that's going to save us and in our ignorance made human beings slaves to them so we as gods of all races need the proper knowledge but no race more in need than the original black man and woman who is perishing in Satan's World.
Boar's Head is referring to a famous supplier of Deli meats so he is referring to the meat industry. The human body was not designed to consume meats or u wouldn't have to cook it. then u season it to make it taste like vegetables. So dead flesh is killing us more than nuclear weapons

i feel like if our bodies weren't able to ingest meat, then we probably would have stopped thousands of years ago.
or maybe I just don't understand the amazing power of the American Meat Industry.
props to ryanmeister and that huge post

I thought this was the sort of stuff that people listened to The Wu for, and am rather shocked at how many people are so oblivious.
That said, I want to stick up for Wu-tang Fan. Give this youngun some leeway, damn! He started off hot-headed (as would any 17 year old who's just had one of their favourite rap groups exposed as a lot more than he thought/discovered that he knew shit about them), but he explained he didn't know what you were on about. Could we not maybe start to explain a little of this incredibly deep and complex stuff to the kid? I know if I weren't brought up the way I was, and didn't put so much research into what they were talking about, I'd be just as oblivious. I'm still learning more and more every day, and I've been listenin' to Wu for over 10 years!
Last, I have some really left-field ideas on one of the lines from the start of this thread ("Australians, Venezuelans, illegal aliens..."), but I've got a bit more knowledge to do on it before I'm gonna start flippin' your whole world on its head... It's pretty big, and I'm no scholar, however the more I look into this, the less I have to disprove it.
Expect some more from me soon...
Oh yeah, and a big thanks to Osirus3000! You explained a lot about the late genius' lyrics for me that I don't think I'd be able to find out where I am. I always knew there was a lot more goin' on with him and his lyrics than I could pick with my experience.
Wow, ive read the whole thread and was amazed. this is why i come to this board everyday (tho i rarely ever post...)
im curious to a couple of things tho.
For one is there a book that the 5%'s follow, you know that explains the math and what not.
and also if you guys can recomment me a book that explains whats inside of vitamins and whats bad for you that the gov and food industries dont mention.
also a book on the gov that explains alot of what you guys discussed on here. thanks and peace to all of you...
its great that this thread is still bein read and enjoyed....
probly my fav thread ever, and what really got me posting on Wu Corp.....too bad ryanmeister hasn't been around in years...
and (*cough*) your welcome for bringin this back not too long ago...
peace I love your tat..Quote:
