Beneath The Surface (ft. Killah Priest & Res)
Genius/GZA

On a man made lake, there's a sheet of thin ice

Where unskilled skaters, couldn't figure eight twice

At sixteen uncut, direct from the cult

Head on assault, the result, death by the bolt


In a vote, it spoke about the average loss commission

That was seen by a King in a prophetic vision

Like a plane crash from a bomb blast

Special broadcast, slot time with con cash


It kept the jury quiet and now a riot will form

While satanic man, now hang in his dorm

I swing on you fake radio personalities

Boost ya ratings but hypes behind casualties


Fire shots, for low-pressure water gun play

Instantly, slap ya fire like it's Palm Sunday

I fashion the first tool from the elements

The Earth use and built it to a complex


Network of communications

You're up against a hopeless situation

I screen every vehicle through enemy observation

Swarmin' unpredictably, we spread terror

Increase the force significantly, change the error


Check my wind pattern, it's headin' West

Success is freedom bur failure could mean death

Humans sweat, aim shovels, dig up the debris and rubble

Permanent, damage caused by the double U


Now who cowardly urge you to merge through

And think the workers'll serve you

Signin' marvel, who just dropped the next novel

Worldwide, practically marred in marble

His accountless, amount of MC's I saved

And them same niggas wanna squander those gifts I gave


Scratch underneath the surface, where does your purpose lie?

It seems our world is worthless, like we're pawns beneath the sky

Change the race by reason and ashes just the wind

The left is so our breathin', keep ourself from givin' in


Yo, love and hatred, home is most sacred

Both species, they lay naked in the tombs of oasis

Think back on niggas I ate with, spent the day with


Guns we played with, niggas I relate with


We broke bread, I heard through a vine niggas workin' for the Feds

Sent out secretly to take my head

I lay back and meditate to the words they say

Skip town for a mutten goofy dred


Had a friend tell my family I was dead

Return at the last fall of the autumn leaves

Operate the plan accordingly, in case the Feds are recordin' me

Sign all documents, usin' forgery 'cuz just a near thought of me


I'm like Solomon, spoke bluntly

Told the word I'm black and calmly

Howls from the grave haunt me

The smell of death's upon me, I dwell in the hills like Gandhi


Been in the presence of mad peasants and old Kings

Who sold everything on a quest for god's divine

Slept in caves to get a clear mind

Who prayed three times when the moon lit and the sun rise


I met dwellers in the desert, talked to shepherds

Been in the mouth of many leopards

Felt the death kiss of Satan's mistress

Walked the vacant districts for four religions, studied Pagan scriptures


True philosophers and physicians on a cure missions

Who harden their hearts to ward the weak, sick and afflicted

Candles lit, gamble with a bitch

Who made me love her when I touch her, soft cause hide claws


Bees with sweet honey in they mouth

Have bitter stingers at they tail

Walk through the chambers of death, take a hold on to hell

Embracing her was like embracing a third world


Scratch underneath the surface, where does your purpose lie?

It seems our world is worthless, like we're pawns beneath the sky

Change the race by reason and ashes just the wind

The left is so our breathin', keep ourself from givin' in

Scratch underneath the surface
