Relaxin' (9th Wonder Instrumental)

Here I go, Idris, touche - ya' want mo'?
Okay, Ghana, c'mon, say "ago!"
Yea, I-am, mellow in melanin
So to anybody, I aint pale in comparison
Y'been waitin, pen (pin) pulled, long overdue
Explosion! Yea, yea - I'm comin thru
Napalm in palms, pressed together for pslams
Now...hah..prey (pray) on
My insigna is three sevens, surrounded by sixes
In a one, see, even mathematically I'm delicious
Feast ya eyes, on I
Food for thought, I get a rise
The special brownie, soul by the pound-ing
Elohim without wings, girl, we doing our thing
Shake y'rear, lies disappear, heaven here
Once agian, the blessed dosage for your ear

Amharic - Blessing for the Year

I found this in a RE: Lupe Fiasco's Matra for 2008 when passing through youtube. Me, being someone completely interested in learning Amharic, and Ethiopian customs (Morehouse's Study Abroad Program here I come!) I wanted to give this to anyone who might read.

"Zitezerebkayo Kelem...Ziregeskayo LemLem Yigberelka."

which is Ethiopian blessing/proverb [the poster's] mother says to [the poster] that means "May your words be as ink and your steps be upon green pastures."

So, "May your words be as ink and your steps be upon green pastures."

It Begins, she is lost to the hims (hymns)
The music within seems to dim to almost no end, I'm noticing
Queen, we need to bridge
Still on that X, need to let it live
All that Manhattin' (Manhattan), why? you birth this sensation
You deny, and all I can say and (n) why? (y), your amazing
Inside (Most Def), Outside (Mos Def!), so stop playing
Even The Planet is here for your demonstration
The stars align, assigned for this time
Interwine, your you, yet still mine
My Venus, nothing get between us, except space
As this Star Treks the place, we boldy go...with grace
Dont let these Mars leave you marred
I'll take you away...just the way you are
Ya know I like em brown, yellow, Ethiopian or Hatian
And my Name is Idris from the Zulu Nation

[Chorus x2]
Now, you...
[Scratch - Temptations]
My girl...My girl...
Hey! Hey! Hey!
My girl...My girl...
