Kayode - E.W.M.C. Lyrics

I'm made equal with My Creator
There's no on else that is greater
I'm made equal with My Creator
There's no on else that is greater

I used to bop my head to Talib Kweli
Mos Def, Outkast, Common, Cube and Jay-Z
To all their beats, I was stompin'
Just had to hear the next level of consciousness
While others weighed drugs by the gram
I was contemplating Def Poetry Slam
But I was still young, just becoming a man
Y'all money hungry rappers may not understand
I was a young buck, flirtin' with disaster
So I went to Vermont to get my Masters
Straight up for education
Went to Ghana to see a new nation
Got a good grip on my predecessors
So I would never succumb to a new oppressor
Got my dashiki outta my dresser
With dreams of whippin' a Kompressor
Searchin' for wife, but I couldn't stress her
'Cuz I was becoming one that could bless her
Learnin' from elders of different degrees
So I would never have to shuck, jive or appease
Gear my body to fend off disease
Carnivorous vegan sippin' Almond Breeze
Experiment with soy, rice, then almond milk
As I reminisce about my ex named Silk
All the while, praising Almighty One
Defend my convictions without using guns
Like a thief in the night, but never had to steal
Just keep lubrication in my nation's pineal

I'm made equal with My Creator
There's no on else that is greater
I'm made equal with My Creator
There's no on else that is greater

I still bop my head to Talib Kweli, Mos Def, Outkast, Common
Lauryn and Marley
To all their beats, I was stompin'
Just had to ADD to their level of consciousness
While others worry about oil spills
I work my butt off just so I can chill
Without burning up any fossil fuels
Or drivin' a Hummer, looking like a fool
Now, don't sleep, I like to look cool
But I influence kids in public schools
So a role model I gotta be
Eliminate vices so all can see
I got too fat, so I'm losing weight
But gained some muscle, please participate
Our world is getting' old, and way too fat
Gonna squish the world until it's flat
Oh, ho! I just made a mistake
Saying the world is like a flat hotcake!
Now, you know, this is only a song
So nonbelievers, please prove me wrong
And rap about what really brings you joy
Instead of money, girls and iced-out toys!
Yeah, I said it, half of you are just sad
And you other ones are just about mad
I know sellin' this may seem hard
But I gotta praise the one and only God
Yeah, there's only one with infinite aspects
And He can heal any broken necks
That crunched under big heads with bigger egos
So we can uplift, and fly like eagles
Instead of walkin' around like lil' beagles
I'm from Cleveland, I don't walk to Steagal's
Yeah, I'm from Cleveland, but not just any dawg
Unless you're Sirius, then I clear the smog
Anew mind, be ye transformed
Cuz I'm a manner of man beyond the norm!
And now I drink a lot of coconut milk
And still reminisce about my ex named Silk
Eatin' fresh fruit that I grew from my garden
Protect my ends like a prison warden
Cuz my money is my brand new slave
It gets my needs met in almost every way!
Yeah, y'all, I achieve balance
By being myself, never bury my talents!

I'm made equal with My Creator
There's no on else that is greater
I'm made equal with My Creator
There's no on else that is greater
