Know Tomorrow

(When it is evening you say, "It will be fair weather")
("For the sky is red")
("And in the morning there will be a storm today")
("For the sky is red and threatening")
(You know how to discern the appearance of the sky)
(But cannot discern the signs of the times)
(You know, that's the way it is for most of the world today)
(There's something happening right before our eyes)
(That's more clear than the face of the sky)
(And yet many are overlooking what's happening)

I know tomorrow's gonna bring another sunrise
I know tomorrow's coming 'cause I see the moonlight
I know tomorrow promises a happy new life
But tonight, there's no tomorrow in my eyesight

If I'm trapped in this world of mine
I'm gonna tap my mind and unwrap a rhyme
That'll stand to the test of time
Rep rap to the best of mine
CP gonna redefine hip-hop
Off Top and Phase Fate replace the heads of state
And straight dictate
To the un-brain-white-washed robot people
Telling you my lyrical content's evil
See through the costumes
And see what the hand that feeds you is
Connected to
Wires and receptacles, electrical, without a soul
With a chip in your head and a barcode
Stayed tuned for the episodes
And expose your brain lobes to subliminals
Turn choirs to criminals
Great minds go to war with questionable intellectuals
Y'all shouldn't take the drugs I take
That's a mistake
You ain't ready for it, boy
Stay baked
You ain't ready for the boy Off Topic
Man, you ain't even a prospect
Too ill to hate
I got a feeling
Something is real and about to reveal itself
Rain down though the ceiling
Gonna touch you, clean you, start the healing
No shelter, standing or kneeling
No sides to pick and no time to choose
Can't win, not a game
Either way, can't lose
What a shame, all the time we spent on the rules
What a waste, all the money we spent on the tools
Rhyme sick 'til the spit makes a puddle of drool
And we drown in the beats of the record pool
Gotta learn real quick how to fight like new
We swallowed the bait, now it's time for a breakthrough

I know tomorrow's gonna bring another sunrise
I know tomorrow's coming 'cause I see the moonlight
I know tomorrow promises a happy new life
But tonight, there's no tomorrow in my eyesight

Think about what you wanna do
Sign o' the times
Mark your minds with Intel inside
Microsoft shell thick-skinned
You think you're exempt from the pig's grin?
Think ya better listen
This ain't a game like pigskin
But it's playoff
Count down to elimination
Minds elevated to elation
Drugged-up with Reality TV
To replace your family
The peak of American culture's passed
'55 could never last
Now accelerated fast like a particle collision
On the path set in motion since the day of atonement
Yeah ya always known it
Just hoped it was down the road
A little more
Thought you'd die before you'd see a computer chip
Lie to your face
Now they watch what you all do, every move
Evening news, nothing but death and destruction
Not 'cause it's new, but because you eat it up, son
Sucks to be you, on the horizon, sun's rising
Fireside, best seats to get fried
Testify, now did you witness the crime?
Did you sit back and wait to die?
The fittest survive, that's fine by me
But the fit have a hit list
Whose name will they find?
I'll tell you who's on my shit list
When I rip this track
Listen to the words, don't just hear the rap
On the streets, will you holla back?
Now motherfucker, can you follow that?
Don't play the game and then they don't get richer
And we don't get poorer, get the picture?
Don't play the stocks, and keep your money in your mattress
Cut up the plastic and you cut off the fascists

I know tomorrow's gonna bring another sunrise
I know tomorrow's coming 'cause I see the moonlight
I know tomorrow promises a happy new life
But tonight, there's no tomorrow in my eyesight

I know tomorrow's gonna bring another sunrise
I know tomorrow's coming 'cause I see the moonlight
I know tomorrow promises a happy new life
But tonight, there's no tomorrow in my eyesight

(There will be set up a global economic control)
(So that everyone who swears allegiance to this new leader)
(Will be given a number)
(And if you don't have the number)
(You can't buy or sell anything)
(You can't even hold a job)
(But you can't have a number unless you swear allegiance)
(To this person as being God)
(A world currency is already being set up)
(A world bank is already being set up)
(And there will soon be a universal currency)
(By which there can be a global economic control)
(Now think with me, in history)
(When in history)
(Could every man, woman, and child on Earth)
(Have been forced to get a number)
(And someone be able to enforce that?)
(There's only one time in history)
(That could have ever taken place)
(And that's right now)
(Because it took the advent of computers)
(To make that possible)
(But now with computers we have the first time in history)
(That what John predicted 1900 years ago would take place)
(Because now there are computers)
(Where every person on Earth)
(Will receive a number)
(And they can be kept account of)
