Evil enters with a needle spreads like an oak tree
Restless feet walk into a snake pit
The finger points at the moon the imbecile looks at the finger got too much anger you’re just doomed
Extreme turbulence grip the arms of your seat
Attention please this rhythm will shake ya
Get your spirits up lively up yourself
People wanna be relieved of the fear of death
Can you whistle in the dark laugh so hard at The simplest jokes apreciate life
Like there’s no tomorrow
Don’t let the future be a hostage of your past
Live life with class like a first class citizen the last shall be first
Wave ya hands up in the air and move em all around like you just don’t care
To the hihat the kick and the snare
The punishments are greater than the crime
When ya livin a life in this day and age
Ya feelin the rage like a lion in a cage
How could I be a sage in a temple?
I don’t know but my body is a temple
So I can’t intoxicate myself
My body is my wealth….yeah my body is my wealth
Evil enters with a needle spreads like an oak tree
Restless feet walk into a snake pit
The finger points at the moon the imbecile looks at the finger got too much anger you’re just doomed
My bread and butter and I don’t sleep
It’s what I do,put words together like an architect
Ancient Kemet,in other words Egypt
Overdose from people who take chemicals
It’s the food and the medicine
Then they worry about catching a cold from a virus
The world’s upside down
All the outlets,newspapers,t.v. news and internet
They’re full of it
No matter how long the night the day is sure to come
I just begun a life long project
I talk about what see,all I see under the sun
My lyrics weigh a ton like P.E.’s uzi
They weigh a ton
I’m here to project my thoughts into outer space
They come back,yeah to wreck..the whole damn place
I wreck the whole damn place
I wreck the whole damn place
I wreck the whole damn place
I wreck the whole damn place
Evil enters with a needle spreads like an oak tree
Restless feet walk into a snake pit
The finger points at the moon the imbecile looks at the finger got too much anger you’re just doomed
You’re just doomed
Your tongue slipped,you spoke the truth
You couldn’t lie anymore,rotten to the core
I saw it in your eyes
“Man…I had more rhymes but..let’s end it right here.”
”Peaaace…”

MBanja Ritchy
The songs"Ruff 'em up","125th Street Knowledge"and "Power and&Money",take you back to Mbanja Ritchy's original style when he was still known as B-Bandj.He had released an album titled "Breaking Barriers"which was considered to be a "message rap"album.
Each song here,as well,is about Knowledge of self.Knowlege can be found all around us, in a book, a documentary on T.V. ,a conversation with a life coach etc..
But what good is it to have knowledge and not digest it with our mind, body and soul.
You must first know yourself before memorising things.Intelligence is experience, "right thoughts", morality,being able to relate to others anywhere around the world, rich,poor or social status.
What shapes the world?Who influences movements and so on.
We live in a vast Universe and there are always things to learn;but the answers can almost always be found within.
