The Truth

KRS One


It's not natural If it goes against God 
It's not factual Her truth is not hard 
It's not natural If it goes against God 
It's not factual Gimme the truth! 

Listen to the lyric as the negative is shrinkin 
It's shrinkin out your life when you decide to change your thinkin 
One of the first things we gotta switch around of course 
Is Jesus Christ and him dying on the cross 
You're looking at the cross surrounded in it's mystery 
With Jesus on the cross in a, total misery 
Now seperate Jesus from the cross so you can see 
The truth about the cross, and the cross's history 
The cross was created by the Roman government 
It's only purpose and use, is cap-i-tal punishment 
But Jesus Christ, was all about the revolution 
While the cross was used as Jesus Christ's execution 
See what if Jesus Christ, was hung upon a tree 
Upon every church wall, that's exactly what you'd see 
If Jesus Christ, was shot in the head with no respect 
We'd all have little gold guns around our neck 
If Jesus Christ was killed in electic chair, now get it 
You'd be knealing to the electric chair with Jesus, still in it 
You gaze upon the cross, and you see the execution 
You yell stop the violence but the cross you're still using 

It's not natural If it goes against God 
It's not factual Her truth is not hard 
It's not natural If it goes against God 
It's not factual Gimme the truth! 

So I say listen, listen, open up your third eye vision 
God is not down with religion 
Religion they be sellin it, listen up, God is intelligent 
Reading of the bible is irrelevant 
You gotta look within yourself, not a scripture 
KRS-One comes to rearrange the God picture 
If you sit and believe, you can acheive 
If you sit and accept, you don't know, what's correct 
or incorrect, take for instance Adam and Eve 
The first two people on the planet, or so you believe 
Their first time in heaven kids they had, Cain and Abel 
Huh, now let me show you why the story's unstable 
According to the story, according to what you believe 
There was only Cain, Abel, Adam, and Eve 
on the whole planet, now use your intellect 
and tell me, what did Cain and Abel do for sex? 
Upon the whole planet there was not another 
Could it be for sex, heh, they were looking at each other? 
Hold up! I thought the church wasn't into that 
But wait, still yet, there is another fact 
How did the world get populated? 
Now tell me if I'm wrong, but obviously Eve had it goin on 
Think for a minute, I know it gets notorious 
But yo G, check out the chorus 

It's not natural If it goes against God 
It's not factual Her truth is not hard 
It's not natural If it goes against God 
It's not factual Gimme the truth!

Yo yo... 
Yo bring that back 
I wanna say something on this BlastMaster session 
Yo this is Rich Nice 
You brothers gotta stop treating these hoes like nice girls 
and these nice girls like hoes 

[KRS-One] 
True indeed, I'd like to welcome the rebirth of the Goddess 
Word up it's all about knowledge of self 
Yo Busta Rhymes, why don't you take the session over from here
