    Default Jeru da damaja - You can't stop the prophet

    I know Jeru da damaja has nothing to do with wu-tang, but can any one decipher this song.








    Guy 1: Oh yo look towards the darkness
    Guy 2: Nah nah yo look towards the light
    Guy 1: Yo what! Oh what the? Yo what is that?
    Guy 2: It's a supernova
    Guy 1: Nah nah man that's a black hoe
    Guy 2: Yo yo yo
    Both : Yo it's it's it's . . .

    I leap over lies in a single pound
    [who are you?]
    The black prophet
    One day I got struck by knowledge of self
    They gave me super scientifical powers
    Now I, run through the ghetto
    Battling my arch nemesis Mr. Ignorance
    He's been trying to take me out since the days of my youth
    He feared this day would come
    I'm hot on his trail
    But sometimes he slips away because he has an army
    They always give me trouble
    mainly Hatred, Jealousy and Envy they attack me
    They think they got me
    But I use my super science and I twist all three
    I see sparks over that building
    They're shooting at me
    I dip, do a back flip
    Then hit em in the heart with sharp skilled book marks
    Ignorance hates when I drop it
    But no matta what he do
    He can't stop the prophet.

    [Yo prophet, yo prophet, come here real quick
    Yo I just saw Ignorance down town
    Let me put you on. Word, he down there buggin
    He got them illing out, the shooting and everything..]

    Let's continue the saga, mad, mad drama
    I met this chick, she said she knew where Ignorance was at
    I said where, she said downtown
    He had babies having babies
    And young niggas selling crack
    I think the bitch is lying it's a set up
    I can smell it, but Ignorance is runnig rampid
    Aight baby show me the exact spot
    Meet me at quick and skimo on the 3 on the dot
    So I hops up on the A train, I'm being followed
    My seventh sense senses danger
    I turn around, it's Anger and he brought a mobb along
    It's the same old song
    Despair and Animosity got broke with the swiftness
    I don't know what they think this is
    I feel a sharp pain in my neck
    Now I can't see on my hand
    They hit me with the dart filled with the pork chops sim
    I tried to hold on but before long I dropped
    When I awoke I was locked in the barber's shop
    Trapped in the barber's chair
    Oh no, they're going to try and cut my hair
    But that can't stop the prophet

    [Yo prophet,
    Ignorance is tired of you following him around
    We about to put end in out right now.
    Anamosity, Despair
    Get him]

    [Can't a damn thing stop me]

    A few minutes passed by I hear a buzzin noise
    It was that chick with some of Ignorances' boys
    She said prophet we got you beat
    By the way I'm Ignorance's wife, Deceit
    But enough talk now for your hair cut
    When the clippers touched my hair, they blew the fuck up
    After the explosion there was no one left
    Cause I know them mobb poison hair touch of death
    My vision's still kinda blurry, but I see a clue
    Ignorance is at the library
    I hurry, with lightning speed like the flash
    He's at the big one, on Grand, Army Plaz
    When I get inside the doors shut and the lights go off
    Damn another trap
    I hear a hissing sound I smell a funny smell
    I gasp, I can't breath
    Ignorance is laughing at me
    Waiting on my down fall,
    But he can't stop the prophet

    [Well Prophet
    It seems like you're in a bit of a jam
    I hope you can unstick yourself, Oh
    And what you did to my wife
    It was nothing, I have others
    hahahahahaha....]

    These two dudes are just stuggling with doing right and doing wrong, they see Jeru he is different, cause he has KOS they r baffled by his persona

    I leap over lies in a single pound

    a single bound, like superman. Lies infest the black community, but they cant fuck with him.

    When u get kos it feels like u have powers cause everyone else around is so ignorant to who they r.

    These are 3 of the 4 devils (Lust is the 4tth), it is these that at the root of most problems in the hood.

    Hes just saying, science is the foundation of all things, therefore with science on your side nothing can fuck with you. The science refers both to kos and traditional science taught in school.

    Ignorance is usually at fault of most beefs.

    The lack of KOS is ignorance, if u have KOS u wont do ignorant shit like killing and having babies at a young age.

    Again he is just using despair, anger, hate, jealousy etc.. as real people as opposed to feelings people have.

    Pork Chop serum, people who have KOS dont eat pork, we see it as something that makes other than who u are or should be. In fact our diet is one of the main reasons we are all fucked up now.
