Can you feel it?
Nothing can save ya
I'm tougher than bullets
So, baby, pray to your savior
I never been shot, but I betcha I'm braver
I'm taking my spot, nigga, I ain't afraid to
Be me
Sometimes I find it very hard to be
Who?
Me
(The inevitable rise and liberation of NiggyTardust!)

Yo, the banana peels are carefully placed
So keep your shell toes carefully laced
The illest nigga got peppered in mace
Now amplify this turn up the bass

Picture me
Lampin' in the company car
Rims like Tibetan prayer wheels
Nigga what, I'm a star
I cruise the block like a feather back and forth 'til I land
As the song in your ear or the book in your hand
Now this fuckin world about to know who I am
Got your whole system up in my trunk
That dog eat dog make my woofers bark atomic crunk
All my trill niggas know who be bringin da funk
Lees and shell toes like it's Black History Month

Yo, the banana peels are carefully placed
So keep your shell toes carefully laced
The illest nigga got peppered in mace
Now amplify this turn up the bass

There was one
Bore witness to the rays of the sun
Synthesized in her own image, photo negative, shun
The development of Parliament, the phallic bop gun
Thus, the mothership connection spawned the birth of the drum
Ancient drum begat drum
Kingdom go, kingdom come
Ancient sector of the scepter risen up to the sun
Hidden hand of man begat patented clone of the drum
Boom bap strapped into a wire, tightly coiled, and respun
Trigger sound, trigger gun, drum machine, machine gun
Bodies piled carefully filed under beats that were once
Reprogrammed to become unplugged concert of sun
Every ray with sample clearance
Every two begat one
Boom bop hard as a gun
White crosstrainers, unstrung
Let these suckas know the cost of making Harriet run
Let the North Star be your guiding post when turned from the sun
Until knowledge reigns supreme over nearly everyone

Yo, the banana peels are carefully placed
So keep your shell toes carefully laced
The illest nigga got peppered in mace
Now amplify this turn up the bass
