Verse 1 There's no debating it's one blue planet we gotta share it This little rock in space is third base it's how God planned it Souls are commanded some understand it some don't pray Please over stand this it's greed and lust I cast away They manufacture in private poisons as public goods The finest fight prison pipelines and gentrified hoods I flunk polluters flinging fat F's for fish kills Foreclose on factory farms and forage for a meal Forever fervent in my defense of the feminine Mother Earth and her medicine messages from forever when Ancestors were the residents thankful there is evidence In texts and monuments and warnings of what's next How it all connects glacial melts and cleared fields How will my lungs heal how will my lungs heal? God's willing we kneel or sacrificially be vegan I Stand for Peace and sign the Paris Climate Agreement Seek meaning in every meeting completing and not competing Believing and not deleting scientific truth and teachings My belief's based in the fact that true faith takes works Manmade climate change is real let's take care of the Earth Chorus Mother Earth is on the rise you know She's been abused and getting tired It's all up to us to make right you know Everybody arise everybody arise (2x) Verse 2 I say peace to every single being who can feel me Please let the flaws of man recede freely I'm not taking any I leave these jewels and I'm Betty That's bouncing anti war announcements and I'm jetty Get out of here I'm for all the people I'm allowed to be I'm in here can't nobody take this person out of me You in here you about to hear what we about to see A future for all our future generations harmony Gardens don't need guarding no more greed no more misogyny My gawd this modern world is an assault on our arteries Gaia's been downgraded and garnish-eed for our fancy fees Imagine walking and running for hundreds of miles and still you can't be free Fill the streets fill the squares make this heaven on Earth This is real facing mass extinction what could be worse This is real facing mass extinction let's do the work This is real facing mass extinction let's break the curse Put science first for the Earth the only one that we got Then go to synagogue, church and mosque and pray a whole lot My belief's based in the fact that true faith needs works Manmade climate change is real let's take care of the Earth Chorus Mother Earth is on the rise you know She's been abused and getting tired It's all up to us to make right you know Everybody arise everybody arise (2x)

Hook Home Home Home home Verse There's so much to fix it's got me feeling overwhelmed If you see something say something ok we living in hell I see the signs I saw the fall before he came to this realm doomsday prophecies and obviously we ain't doing well They fracking earth's shell to sell gas that makes the land weaker We're trapped in their spells of retail as if she ain't teach us They'd speak of earthquakes and rumors of war and nonbelievers then match themselves to the stories of their conquering leaders Home home home home home home home home Too foreign for your mission we don't seek permission Purveying bars of wisdom uplifting that's high nutrition We selling packs so listen these raps yes they need submissions You fishing for your truth but I don't tank with normal vision I Bang it by addition flesh or veggie I don't give in Megaciph is living proof the altruist and God is living I love your body ma And I won't lie to ya I'm really fond of ya I want to fondle ya Don't want to fight no more For any rich man war Of that fact I'm sure I love your coral shores Sacred space left is right And your water is Life Our ancestors at night Fleeing oppression and plight Respect the Earth and Air Protect the seas and care Nuchi du Takara One day we will go Home

Safe Space 01:54
lyrics

This station lively yo come and viiiibe Get your frequency right we on a riiiide This rap a journey so hop inside You found a safe space we have suppliiiies We have words and rhymes and stories with emotions on em Built on memories we cultivate and honor often Each one reach one teach one I got two flowers to soften Teach em compassion don't fill the morgues or the coffins Fill the brains with the knowledge kill the office Fill the homes with the cooks that gets emphasis Fill the nooks and crannies with a kiss from granny and Fill this capitalist carcass with a socialist bliss I'm impressed with equal opportunities for all I'm impressed with justice and who makes the call Nevertheless I won't stress when I should take the fall I just do my best don't come with less no waterfaaaalls This station lively yo come and viiiibe Get your frequency right we on a riiiide This rap a journey so hop inside You found a safe space we have suppliiiies Let's begin everyone in a comfortable position Sitting, standing, dancing, working I need your body to listen Here's my part in the mission pulling back the partition The emperor has no clothes I expose their divisions I multiplied my additions and then applied my own visions What's a life to a person who's not out gaining wisdom? I subtracted my limits and then I paid myself to list them That's a person that's a person okay there is no difference Bye

I'm queer I'm straight (4x) I'm different I'm serious I'm changing I'm curious No pausing I'm absorbing Books 'til I'm delirious Find me in my periods My moods and all my feelings My swings my highs and lows And maybe with my earrings Throwing stones in my lobes Adorned in the finest robes Clothes handmade y'all know I'm fresh down to my toes Compose for love and equality Human rights over goods and commodities We're at odds but we are not oddities We're the same and different and possibly ... I'm queer I'm straight (4x)

INTRO Everyone's rushing Everybody's got someplace to be Nobody wants to go to a funeral Nobody wants another decorated bike on the side of the road CHORUS 2x Move over Share the lane (with me) Three feet of space A Life's not a game VERSE I got two wheels two pedals two feet to keep 'em moving I'm bipedal speaking of the street needs improvement Pedaling this movement music takes me everywhere Chain keeps moving hypnotically going there Hermetically prepared come with air tight clothes Air it out helmet's on here it brightly glows Reflection captures light all eyes on the spin Make a move Megaciph yo DJs get a win I got the right of way you gon' have respect for my bike I'm not going away you gon' have respect for my life Share the lane pass safe on the left when there's space Don't honk shake your fist or gimme the stank face Just move over and share the lane Gimme three feet of space a life's not a game Objects appear closer bikes usually do When they come around maybe put your foot in the other shoe and CHORUS 3x Move over Share the lane (with me) Three feet of space A Life's not a game :|| Objects appear closer bikes usually do When they come around maybe put your foot in the other shoe and VERSE Bike lanes are better for pedestrians No more jumping like equestrians Bike lanes are better for the drivers Everybody needs a friendly reminder Bike lanes are better for the cyclists More cyclists better the environment So just move over share the lane Three feet of space a life's not a game

Covid 19 is real Co - Ro - N - A Covid 19 is real Co - Ro - N - A Covid 19 is real Co - Ro - N - A //////// Nature cultivates the virus our cultures get along Modern ag provides us the perfect ride along Shop in live meat markets there ain't nothing wrong We got overcrowded pens I got to write a song Pens a metaphor for cages animal or human Time to free us all sew peace is what I'm pursuing Mental physical spiritual no more illusions Work is just the perfect play that keeps us all losing keep ya social distance from me with ya long arms Of the law gone far right inflicting more harms Melt ICE jails operated by for profit farms Burn private prisons in bed with senate wooed by their charms We all at home together but home ain't all the same some don't have a home or shelter those shall not be named Some protest the stay at home order they insane Some ain't safe at home and never spoke they feel ashamed Here's game on placing food orders in secret calls for help Say your pizza too greasy we all need someone else Replace the faker of wealth and space and his racist elf Protect our public health at all cost our source of wealth Happiness and longevity praise essential workers Economies should value people over what they purchase We only buying because we buy in that we so imperfect Now that we dying we finding out the dime ain't worth it

I fill you up at the bar (3x) When hunger's larger than life I just go bananas King Kong in a supermarket with real good grammar Shopping for my fam yeah I'm in Alabama I got them country manners its good to meet you mama Here to get some manna some butter and land up Some lakes around so I could dip chips in or stand up This hot dog is cutting the mustard you need to ketchup A fruit salad morning glory muffins cuz this nuts Our over ain't easy most Fritata with caged eggs half baked running free paying for pasture raised My independence keep me grilling in prime filets I slow roast and don't boast your top choice'll get braised Some greens in it a toss salad no lean cuisine dinners I cook I mean business you eat you leave winners The freshest ingredients don't live in food deserts Where big chains and subprime markets control entrance I fill you up at the bar (4x) This ain't buffet style seven courses plenty choices Aperitifs and amuse bush the chef has voices Just for a starter we got water from these dirty faucets And I was told to recommend but I don't want to force it Of course it's way too costly to fund the fix for causes So we feed the fix for fast food that makes us nauseous Look who's in office this fool wants to off us I'll take a number 46 a fat fork and a forklift

Yo, I am here to uplift ya dreams I encourage em they make us better beings Question reality, what is it you're seeing? I am you and we have packed coliseums Question are power power enables freedoms Freedoms are nonnegotiable many don't receive 'em I got two little ones I teach em how to knuckle up My Queen disdains violence I don't want to deceive em believe we fighting for our lives babies win the prize Energize your inner stellar oven with big pride Align your chakras turn the wheels of life's ride Kindle your kundalini cultivate a whole tribe Stoke the coals light the smoke for the fire Diminish the trash recycle if it don't expire You do the math ignore the ads and just inspire Freedom fighters and writers should be most admired Not tired rappers deceiving the masses Free energy free everybody capitalists breed fascists The exploitation of resources and classes People for their culture until that free ride crashes Clashing with nature and life digging mass graves Now armed white men are comparing themselves to slaves Vultures snatching at us going Natchez way Wish it was back to normal when all we wanted was a brighter day Clowns under fed protection shine the light Follow my heart desire freedom fight Beat the lies with this art form soul take flight Your body follow wherever I hold a pen or mic This is lit so its a fit for all stations Blazing airwaves with all the placements Amazing wisdom and sincerity is graceful Projects breaking thru on new stages Growing through adjustments to daily life Welcome Corona know that change is all right Transition the constant resistance is rife Fear will keep you frozen find freedom with megaciph

Verse I wanna Be Where it's safe in the street (c'mon) Safe to gather and safe to meet (yeah) Safe to party and then safe to leave (believe it) I wanna be where we can all truly breathe Belief in the trust that gave birth to this song Extended family is safe and we all get along On Every city block where peace culture is strong O.G.'s Brag about kindness not right or wrong My heart tatted on my arm and the karma's real Superficial evidence of ancient seals n red pills Reveal my wealth choose who I show my love for Wherever we are walking there's no rumor of a war What has more color than rainbows and black pride? Celebrations of the mother love that water is life That's the highest price hi I'm Megaciph Spread ya wings and shine ya light Chorus I wanna be where I am Aware Beware I am where I wanna be Where? Aware Beware I wanna be where I am Aware Beware Beware Verse I work smart so I can go to sleep in peace at night Stay producing build pathways expand the sight Prioritize my dream to purchase on foreign beaches Parlay in peace on pretty white sands in paradise! No worries of a no knock or kicked in doors she is the victim of a state locked in age old wars Or race wars or xenophobes building up walls Or fake news and evil bloodlines taking the fall Call your thugs I walk this dotted line to the end Face my fears slay the beast and then stop it again Given the choices our voice is a highly prized weapon Each day is blessed don't plant ya tents in the wind Difficult tests and storms continually break in Hold space the struggles us collectively creating This whole world and its beautifully amazing Array of possibilities for any of us to change things Chorus

I am more than you ever thought you'd bargain for A man of peace trained in the Art of War Completed basic booted before four in the Corps Now that's the same place I learned to format bars Heavy lifting and shot glasses bullets and bombs Why I am under pressure always present and calm Megaciph a diamond press me see what become You'll come to see me pull off what seldom is done We came from the bottom and made it to the top From the depths of the Ocean the avenue is my block I am from the Brooklyn Zoo that's my flock With wings spread I am the truth a peacock A unicorn living legend undocumented I am valid and legal in every way I meant it I came on my own been bought sold and rented These are roads I paved and paths I cemented With intention my intensity's a rare blessing I am one of a kind of that there's no question I am manifesting flows composed for smoke sessions With these weapons blowing your mind these woke lessons I'm Hotepping offering new words and essence In a sense I make it too intense to mention I mean what I say I say it when I need to Free the truth I'm taking backers and investments I'm the proof live a life the youth is impressed with In the booth Megaciph not the one to mess with Check my resume peep the collective Guerilla with a E and a U beat on my chest quick

Want Love ... no fear now Need Love ... no fear now (4x) Wash ya hands get it right good hygiene could save ya life Keep ya hands out ya face 'specially in a public place Not least or last wear a mask take that class from Megaciph You could save a life take a doc's advice not lots of light no bleach to taste With a yes and a no economy closed over pathogens we can detect The long incubation time and DNA faking making the chain look correct When in fact you can be infected impact your loved ones with that neglect Let's face it the president's basic unlike his office this needs respect and Love ... no fear now (8x) I value my freedoms defend our rights and and I'll tweet it to let you know With a post on the gram long form on Facebook YouTube with the live show Our lives are material pouring the spiritual milk for this physical flow Don't sit back and watch as we get to marching let's see how far we go Stop spreading misinformation about hydroxychloroquine Close contact and bumping into me in stores ain't happening I'm not dying for a country that just sees me as a good again They don't even see me unless it's because of questioning me or the hood I'm in Love ... no fear now (8x) Hubris makes us vulnerable also quite intolerable Thinking we the best to pull wool over these vegetables I ain't living miserable race and hate invisible Take a knee indivisible why my rights ain't admissible? King is Capital ... Queen is Corona Who holds the crown? ... who is the owner? Who is the master? ... who's the controller? Can he give it up? ... can she pass us over? Love ... no fear now (8x) Diamond oh what a sound Platinum I got laying around Gold power to behold SARS - COv2 rare to be found Diamond oh what a sound Platinum I got laying around Gold power to behold SARS - COv2 rare to be found I want love no fear now
