Ya'koob:
Just came back from Abu Dhabi, you know how I be
Just finished doing Wudu', you know how we do
Ya'koob (verse 1):
Methodman gave us some sweet advise, aha
And Shafiq told us don't let them take away your Deen
Muhammadin Rasul'Allah
Abdul: Who gave us the name The Base?
Yakoob: Ask Miguel L. Chavarrio
Abdul: And Jay Electronica
Yakoob: First we were the Abrahams
Abdul: Now we're the Muhammadans
Yakoob: We back, with another bomb again
Its all in the music
This is Dove Society, Creative Minorities
We're all Sons of Yusuf
We doing this for our ancestors
Who would travel many miles
Just to come back home with enough sugar to last us till Fajr
We're not here to raise any gang members
We're raising artists and scholars, we're here to inspire
We gon' name them after Moses and Muhammad
From South Central to Casablanca
We're gon' fulfill the promise
Hook:
You all have one thing in common
All you scientists and doctors
You think you know everything
Earth, wind, and fire
Abdul:
Bani Adam, born during a war with Saddam
Came from the home of survivors where we're known as modest
I needed a mic to speak about the system
No politics, the mantiq, the logical
And about the prophets peace be upon them
And I'ma do, everything I can
To spread good Will like Nas would do
Be like Ali, they can't stop you if God's with you
Banks they are robbing us, materialism they offer you
So I'm on that 2pacalypse now, that Moroccan-ish vibe
I spit that Arabic flow
That miraculous feeling whenever I'm bowing
I know, all of this goodness ain't promised
I still done made a big promise
Honest and truthful I hope, inshaAllah
I hope you catching up
My time zone's different
You're meant to be carrying your people on your back
But how they treat they're own kind like that?
F**k it, we all have something in common we're all dying
Hook:
You all have one thing in common
All you scientists and doctors
You think you know everything
Earth, wind, and fire
