MASTER DIVIDER (featuring lyrics by Da Prophecy) So I was sitting in the Lab, with a pen and a pad Mind racing to the stars with no fear of the crash Reflecting on the past, concept is the future Hip Hop, the Reformation bringing light like I’m Luther, step into the light, that’s when the masses Will shoot ya, my time is right now, aint no “un momento” Its mental, but people always wanna get physical Tryin to cut your own family, and its umbilical, unconceivable Unreadable, lyrics are feastible, we want that soul food, But the plate is so minuscule, demons now fasting, Losing some weight, gettin the stuff back into shape, man I’m done eating the cake But my word is it for me, even after I die When they bury me a G, my eyes will look to the sky Only heaven up above the music kept me alive Yeah, the music kept me alive Lost tribe of shabazz, I’m tryin to find myself through the old rhymes Sadat X, Common, since 1999, Eyes open in the dark but you’re still blind So now I’m here to spread truth, while the light is lime I AM Da Prophecy, a black kid philosophically Socrates Spittin flame like the burning bush Big Brother still watching, man I’m tired of your looks Though I’m never shook I went to College, stole your knowledge, I’m a product Street scholar, know the work, Money Power Green Dolla Nothing, its no substance, its like dancing with the devil 
to the sound of Donald Trumpet Losing yourself, going nutty like the Klumps And professing your wealth, when you’re fueled by corruption Now let me take you to eat, mental consumption, food for your soul Lets get your blood pumping’ Vibe with me I’m bout mad elevation, for the nation No going back up, pay forward with creation The music, coming straight from the soul I free up outer dimensions, cracking DaVinci codes Its metaphoric, contorted, imma get a little historic Retrograded in the system I step inside my Delorean We orient to pay attention to the signs that Black Lives Matter when its only televised When its only televised

The Flow 07:49
THE FLOW (featuring lyrics by Da Prophecy) Chi Town child now a Chi Town Prodigy Knowledge from the streets Good and Bad memories, The symmetry, the way I Break it down lyrically Neo Soul Flow through my Visions I’m Da Prophecy Young Black Male recognizing the hell Imma call it how I see it we forgot what’s real See I took that red pill, woke up From a dream, working 9 to 5 - 5 days a week. As I’m inhaling my weed Instead repeat when I breathe, exhaling my Thoughts, this is the essence of me A brother still want it all is that A capital flow? My sea has burned a few Bridges I admit my wrong Heard hip hops call, hear my style elevated were now body and soul, and never segregated, desecrated Put it in the hands of the creator The world has gotten worse now the masses get To praying, my lyrical cave is just another safe haven For the ravens qouoting nevermore peace and nevermore safe Whos cravin to wake up and shake up this new age Ignite a new fire, spread a new blaze C’mon, spread a new blaze spread a new blaze spread a new blaze Put your lighters to the sky and spread a new blaze Gunshots crack these police lights Demons on the block at the stroke of midnight Thought I was in Gotham seeing all these dark knights So I prayed to god for protection in this fight Alone in my room contemplating on my death Feeling no regret when I’m taking my last breath Tomorrows never promised, best believe I can’t rest Living for the words, tatted on my chest Prophecy is here and I’m never gon digress Shooting for the stars on a mission like Star Trek Know I’m the best, no need for elections, The mental erections like a infection So selective, we’re given this service, gotcha swerving twirling, curling like Gervin I’m slamming this game like Julius Erving Gotchu start questioning whether if you deserve it I’m far from perfect, I’m just realer than most I used to be so ashamed of the stuff that I wrote But I don’t care anymore so Imma write when I smoke The flow seem to be the realest when I’m hungry and broke Still popping my collar rocking my peacoat Parading through the brothers hood like a Mardi Gras Float. And this is my first show so its the first impression, This is a new chapter in this hip hop section, me Hip hop Section Me Hip hop section me I’m Da Prophecy

EPILOGUE - FROM THE NIGHT TREES 
(spoken word by Nonney Oddlokken)

 When I was a child, the Spirit Sisters Collectors watched from the night trees… In the Moonshine. Changing shape as they jumped from treetop to treetop. Following me to and from the store. Following me from friends’ homes. Following me with my mother. Following me and waiting patiently. For a child born with such an old soul, will surely soon join them. One morning, I found a dropped human soul Half hidden in the protruding roots of an oak tree Shivering and covered with dew. Fearing it will dry up and flake away in the coming scorch, I wrapped it in screen mesh and twine. Shaded by the white confetti’s petals, I hung it on the highest branch of their crepe myrtle tree. No sense causing a ruckus over such a correctable mishap.
