_ [Abm] I'm a professor of the rock and when I speak, I guarantee that my lines will not be weak.
[Ebm] They say our mind is a terrible thing to waste, that's why I'm here [Eb] and on the case.
[Abm] Wrapping up every line with a special degree in socio [Gb]-psychology B.E.
The Gary Bird [Db] experience is [Ebm] my course, when you [Eb] take my class you will feel the force.
[Abm] Cause I know the roots, that the rap is first, when I speak to you I am not [Gb] dumb.
Hear my rap and [Eb] begin to dance, and I promise you this, you will act bad.
[Abm] You may have seen the raiders from the lost ark, but you still left the theater [Gb] in the dark.
Clap your hands to the beaters, the one to sound, [Eb] and the G.B [F].E. shout [Bbm] on the crowd.
Kings and [Eb] the _
_ _ [Bbm] _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _
_ _ [Bbm] _ soul of [Cm] the _ _ [Bbm] young, _ _ [Cm] the sound.
_ [Abm] I saw there was upon a time in Al-Gabu, [Gb] that the kings and queens looked like you.
It was a land of [Db] sun with a [Ebm] golden shine, a place that once was your satin [Abm] mine.
Home of a many great dynasties who created science and astronomy.
[Ebm] When the Romans came to study math, [Eb] and the Greeks found out about the [Abm] fact.
In case you wonder what else they did, the Al-Gabu lines created the pyramids.
And before Napoleon [Gb] could even [Eb] blink, in Al-Gabu there stood a giant [Abm] sphinx.
Some say they came from outer space, but they are a part of the human race.
If you know the [Db] place where the gandhi [Eb] found, you may be the one who can [Ab] wear the [Bbm] crown.
_ Wear [Eb] the crown.
_ _ [Bbm] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ [Bbm] _ So proud.
[Eb] _ _
_ _ [Bbm] _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _
_ _ [Bbm] _ _ Wear [Eb] the _ crown.
[Bbm] _ _ So [Eb] _ _
_ _ [Bbm] _ _ proud.
[Eb] _ _
So proud.
We [Bbm] are _ _ [Cm] the sound.
_ _ [Bbm] _ _ [Db] I [Cm] wear the crown.
_ _ [Db] _ _ Wear [Cm] the _ _ [Db] crown.
So [Cm] proud.
We say that [Db] we are the sound.
_ [Cm] The sound.
I _ [Bbm] _ grew [Db] up when [Cm] that was just a little, but I [Db] used to hurry.
So I [Cm] used to always blossom blue.
[Db] There was no mention [Fm] in the [Eb] books we read about my [Bbm] heritage.
_ _ [Cm] _ _
Some [Bbm] of the foreign information [Eb] that I got was education.
[Bbm] From toggles that speak both nations, [Eb] I would listen with much patience.
[Bbm] For to relatives who told a [Eb] tale that they would know the [Bbm] past ahead.
_ [Cm] _ _
_ _ [Bbm] _ _ _ [Eb] I never told of [Bbm] all the kingdoms of my people, [Eb] and how we fought for freedom.
[Bbm] All the many things we [Cm] have untold throughout hundreds [Db] of [Bbm] years.
_ [Cm] _ _
You wear the [Abm] crown.
_ _ _ [Ebm] _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ [Ebm] _
_ _ [Abm] We _ _ _ _ [Gb] wear the crown.
[Abm] _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ [Abm] It's not Star Wars, it's not Superman, it's not the story [Gb] of the Ku Klux Klan.
The crown will [Ebm] appear in the G.B..E., but it's never seen on your TV. [Abm] It's in a black and white, you're gonna mind. A picture of some old, the [Gb] device time. Alex [Abm] Haley drew [Ebm] it in his book. It's what you're to get in his other [Abm] book. Gunner Songhai and Omali, they are the roots of your own family [Ebm] tree. Kingdoms so vast and knowledge wise, they [Db] removed cataracts from [Abm] human eyes. Yet today, some are used to [Gb] see, and live in fear of their discovery. Not in _ [Db] 1492, Columbus [Abm] sailed the ocean tree. A bunch of years before, an al [Gb]-Kabut, a ship sent sail with the Jaffna crew. Two thousand years before Columbo came, the [Db] old Maxwell drew its [Eb] coupe [Abm] fame. Stoneheads with faces 80 high, that the whole crew [Gb] never lived to his style. From the facts, his story gives a [Db] bore. A first troop arrived, was [Eb] the [Abm] Afriko. It may shock the house and shock thee. And if you're not prepared, it may shock you. [Ebm] While some had doubts that the world was round, in America, [Cm] guess who wore [Bbm] the crown? _ _ [Eb] Let the hearts _ _ [Bbm] _ _ _ _ _ [Cm] _
_ _ _ [Bbm] _ so proud to [Cm] say that [Bbm] we all _ have [Cm] found. _ _ [Bbm] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ [Bbm] _ _ _ [Eb] Let the _ _ [Bbm] _ hearts so [Eb] proud to say that [Bbm] we all have found. [Cm] We found. _ [Bbm] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
