"The Kingdom of Kush or Kush was an ancient African kingdom situated on the confluences of the Blue Nile, White Nile and River Atbara in what is now the Republic of Sudan. Established after the Bronze Age collapse and the disintegration of the New Kingdom of Egypt, it was centered at Napata in its early phase. After king Kashta ("the Kushite") invaded Egypt in the 8th century BC, the Kushite kings ruled as Pharaohs of the Twenty-fifth dynasty of Egypt for a century. And The Moors were the medieval Muslim inhabitants of Morocco, western Algeria, Western Sahara, Mauritania, the Iberian Peninsula, Sicily, and Malta."

lyrics
[INTRO]
Stop thinking! ...and open your hearts
We roll with the arts and healing
...We're dealing wit
love, and We're revealing wit
and wisdom
it's a given...
we're givin' it with rhythm!
it's a given...
we're givin' it with rhythm!
[VERSE 1]
We're the wrecking ball at the foundations when we wreck it up
We're the concrete in the foundations when we set it up.
Stop the conscious concentration to leave space for inspiration
Solitude for hibernation, come back with more love vibration
Love yourself to stop the hatin, fat break beats, got me breakin'
You know the drill so dont be still - the beats have got ya body shakin
You're all Gs for 'genius', my higher self is my genie - yes!
...Open source intelligence manifests blessed dreams, impressed? WO!
Oak leaf blowing on a lucky gust of wind
Trusting in the greatness thrust upon him as just another story.
Just a lovers glory, holed up like Saddam, huh? Just chillin
like Osama but with one eye open cos he got rolled on by Obama
I'm sovereign like Obama but not a puppet on a string
I'm attracting with my energy field, not relying on bling
Libyan desert glass? Good enough for Tutankhamen Good enough for me,
round my neck on inconspicuous black string.
[BRIDGE]
What happened to honour? What happened to heroes?
What happened to people with principles not being zeros?
It's all perception... So I don't care
Cos these are just concepts and concepts go nowhere.
Oh yeah, we won't be crippled by NO fear. X4
[VERSE 2]
We've all been insecure. We've all hit the floor.
We've all defended points of view a little too quick to war.
Our pride is a giant lion guarding a fragile baby glass cherubim,
A giant lion guarding fragile self esteem, just let em in.
We've probably all got some African in us, even caucasions from Caucus
Cut with Elohim, seraphim, nephillim.
Standing on the shoulders of giants
The universe wants to speak... and I can't be silenced.
Politicians controlled by international finance
Pontius Pilate these liars, I'm washing my hands.
We can do better. But whose definition of better?
Let it be, restfully blessed to be with beds here.
Let's just see if we react better at ease or in panic?
Stupid question? That's why I feel intense but may look so chilled.
Let's just see if we react better at ease or in panic?
Stupid question? ...Then let's just build.
I'm not always chilled, I'm only human,
I got emotional... and blamed it on full moons n
Choose to take responsibilty now but who am I kiddin?
If I'm not chillin I'm probably spittin'!
[HOOK]
What happened to honour? What happened to heroes?
What happened to people with principles not being zeros?
It's all perception... So I don't care
Cos these are just concepts and concepts go nowhere.
Oh yeah, we won't be crippled by NO fear. X4
[OUTRO]
Stop thinking! ...and open your hearts
We roll with the arts and healing
...We're dealing wit
love, and We're revealing wit
and wisdom
it's a given...
we're givin' it with rhythm!
it's a given...
we're givin' it with rhythm!
