Verse 1
(F major) (A minor) (G major)
(F major) (G major)
(F major) Forbidden knowledge
(G major) can destroy mankind (F major)
(G major)
Verse 2
I (F major) spend large hours of my days alone
(G major) I don't believe we share this universal
space alone
(F major) I think we got a lot from
them, they gave us phones
Internet (E flat major) an d now we all (G major) know what
is forbidden knowledge
Forbidden (F major) knowledge is too great for
a man
(G major) Think if man could read your mind, you
think that man understands
How to use it with integrity,
not (F major) conquering land
Would it be good if we increased the
(G major) lifespan, well that's forbidden knowledge
(A minor) Forbidden (F major) knowledge
can destroy mankind
We can (A minor) grow out of (G major) control like
cancer under the skin of Mother Nature
Busy (A minor) cities much (F major) alike to a tu (A minor) mor
Too (G major) many cells, the residents,
the body's pollutor
I say (A minor) woosah and alley- oop the chubby (F major)
doobie to Judah
Child of Jac (G major) ob, I know my history,
I know we are moors
There's a uni (A minor) verse in her (G major) afro,
(F major) hold us back though
(G major) Power in the black folk,
well that's forbidden (A minor) knowledge
At first they want to keep us
(G major) separate but equal
But it's not so we fight against
the hatred and (A minor) evil
Now they let us think we (G major) got it
and they killin' our (A minor) people
Why does history re (G major) peat like a sequel? Well
that's forbidden knowledge
(A minor) Is God a man watching
(G major) TV like people?
Rewinding his favorite parts to
play it back like it's TiVo
Have I (A minor) wrote this shit be
(F major) fore? It all feels like a redo
Deja (G major) vu is left to die like our dreams do, but that's
forbidden knowledge
I had (F major) some shocking memories as
a kid
(G major) Waking up onto a table,
a lab, some typa bizz
Too vivid to be a nightmare, mom would
(F major) tell me that shit
Can't remember any (G major) thing that they
did, guess that's forbidden knowledge
(F major) (G major)
(F major) (G major) Forbidden knowledge
(F major) (G major)
(F major) (G major) (A minor)
(E minor)

Verse 3
(A minor) (A major) (A minor)
Are
dreams another kind of preview to Heaven?
We (G major) manifest our reality based on our
(A minor) personality
Karma from shit we (G major) did since
the day we were seven
You (A minor) share toys? Or did you
(G major) masturbate at elev (A minor) en
Just (F major) a 90s baby, a millennial kid
(G major) Indigos are on the rise
to make perennial shift
Hope (C major) this music stands long
as Redwood Sequoias
(A minor) Pyr amids and stones,
like stones from Stonehenge
Come on, let the future
tell the truth
Cause you a shell of you
You played your cards
wrong, now you got hell in you
Be glad I still retain respect
for you
Cause I got bullets that'll kill yah if your vest is
hell and heaven- proof
I'll never understand your corporate
greed
Just a group of people, all they
want is more than they (G major) need
(A minor) Signing off on papers, blinded
to the pain overseas
Blood resulting from the ink that they bleed,
that's forbidden knowledge
(F major) (G major)
(F major) (G major)
Verse 4
Forbidden knowledge
(F major) (G major)
(F major) (G major) So who put the liquor store on the street
across from the gun shop?
The park a hop skip in the dark
'way from the gunshots
That rang out in the (A minor) neighborhood where
(F major) the youth's misunderstood
Fight (G major) ing over concrete squares
but the laws just ain't no good
I think (A minor) their agenda's meant to kill us
(F major) all
How good is edu (G major) cation
long as you can ball?
Standin' on the couch inside the
club and hit the mall
Barely feed a bum,
but you buy it all
Think they laughin' at us, cause
while we're (F major) watchin' some (G major) cable
They was talkin' 'bout the economy,
sharecroppers and stables
How (A minor) to keep the horse (G major) runnin'
his course, give him (A minor) some blinders
(G major) So he lack remorse for
whoever's right beside him
(A minor) His own (G major) kind,
(F major) I pray you (G major) dig deeper
If you don't find,
what you're lookin' for on the (A minor) surface
The knowledge that you need can't be (G major)
Nextel chirpin'
You're every bit of worth
it, not worthless
You're kings and queens,
were meant for better things
Than flexin' on the scene,
or burstin' out the seams
Of your blouse you told yourself you'd never wear
outside your mama's house
Cause the energy it lends puts strong women down,
down
Brother, (G major) look, you don't (A minor) need to go
to jail to read you a book
I wonder what Malcolm found after
goin' to Mecca
Or the mindstate of Martin after (A major) vis
itin' Sel (A minor) ma
The leaders that were slain
for speakin' the topic
On the schemers and the reapers of
forbidden knowledge
