all over the world hearts pound with the rhythm

fear not of men because men must die

mind over matter and soul before flesh

well, from my understanding people get better

when they start to understand that, they are valuable

and they not valuable because they got a whole lot of money

or cause somebody, think they sexy

but they valuable caause they been created by god

and god, makes you valuable

and whether or not you, recognize that value is one thing

you got a lot of societies and governments

tryin to be god, wishin that they were god

they wanna create satellites and cameras everywhere

and make you think they got the all-seein eye

eh.. i guess the last poets wasn't, too far off

when they said that certain people got a god complex



angels for the pain keep a record in time

which is passin and runnin like a caravan freighter

the world is overrun with the wealthy and the wicked

but god is sufficient in disposin of affairs

gunmen and stockholders try to merit my fear

but god is sufficient over plans they prepared

mos def in the flesh, where you at, right here

on this place called earth, holdin down my square

bout to do it for y'all, and y'all at the fair

so just bounce, come on bounce

-mos def, fear not of man-
