The Conscious thread: Let keep this shit on track

Still giving it to you raw like Rah Digger
But in this Hip-Hop I ain’t compared to Gold-diggers
I do ma shit for the love of it and get ma props if I do it like illmatic
Cos I got respect for decent Cashless Societies like Kysna
Give ma props to illest spits and raw message delivery like kids to Green in flag Naija
Don’t give a fuck whether to you or your wack friends poetry is hard to understand
But, I give a fuck for mad sales, cos the world needs to heal and take a stand
Still stepping on this surface, dancing the base, with a delivery to your ears laced
Still laying the facts to your brains like earthly beauties on gravel landscapes
I give my props and recognize the lyrical fit like Buster before it’s gone
Bring back ma Golden Shovels and dig up the Dead Presidents before our minds get bombed
Cos the hip hop industry is full of contradictions and faking is a living condition
This time I touch deep in ma heart with a skill and feed you what’ I’ve been eating
Take a look at this diction, bite a piece, go digest, and recycle ma shit if there’s a feeding request
This time I’m repping the living best, even though I got mad love for Pac and BIG in the Duets
Let me increase the Volume and hear Tumi burst teargas on the 1976 track
Cos his rhyme is still on track, and that’s how we real thugs keep the pact
Deep in my consciousness, not underground, cos bursting skills without a purpose doesn’t make sense
Even though I dig battles and metaphors, life is true and that’s a plain fact
Cos in faking we get trapped trying to rip sick, instead of ripping social ills and change the world
That’s why I respect those who can fuse this matter with them ghetto sad physical gestures (metaphysic)
Even though to you we amateurs like Pro I have a dream that from our crawling knees will take a stand
Let hip hop be the medium vehicle for social ills to hike on and take descent
Maybe our officials will get lessons and Shut ‘Em showers Down and respect the parliament
Cos Africa is ma continent, let rap it to protect it before the next Osama is born

can i keep it going god?
before the next osama is born, and a mordern day Christ dies/
not to resurrect again, but stay confined in the skies/
I remember when earth was a virgin, before precious stones leaked/
out of a crevice in the ground after its guardians were tricked/
now we got the same tricksters in the rap game today/
who are prepared to eat shit as long as it comes in a silver tray/
the Sid was grown in Mother Nature's belly and gave birth to Green flowers/
which did not shrivel from the Beesting since their pollen had divine powers/
I hate commercial hip hop since niggas sell their souls for much less/
a naked and poor heart is seen clearer from an expensive dress/
lets keep the thread going like the metro train heading for industries/
that capture our fathers indefinitlely like bogus church ministries/
this freestyle could have been sold, but i dont prefer the black market/
your sense of self was stolen from you, and you dined with the pickpocket/

Shit, it's the Eloheim. Dawg keep elevating main. Will drop soon, saw your thread on battle rhymes and it hot too. I think it's a good idea that you placed it there, cos from what I believe, we do not battle to obtain trophies and respect only, but, most importantly, we battle to horn our skills, so that we are able to deliver what ever we deliver in a skillfull manner. Thanks for extending this dawg.
Keep elevating.
Like Aka from Entity will say "Learn, Build, and Grow"

Only for the fame and money that perishes, while love nourishes/
I dwell among indegenous philosophers with exotic mind dishes/
Bee stings assail the hand that reaches out for the people's honey/
I looked in the mirror and thought i saw the devilish face of money/
but that was just the reflection of my debt to the US government/
slaving for 400 years, dont know where all the produce went/
today is friday, I guess they allexpecting me at the local bar/
as if drunkenness could ever soothe the hurt of an inner scar/
let the future speak and the past leak the secrets of the present/
and somewhere inbetween you can be sure the listener hasnt/
got the message clear, the world needs hearing aid/
not food aid, not the US army getting paid/
for the death of millions, one dollar for every life taken/
I doubt if it was natural forces that made the Tsunami tide awaken/

who else it could be with so much skill - its theme elohim
the earth can't help but shake and shiver when he drops
so like an assistant at a movie set im givin u props
seems he's always ready to shout for his cause like baby's teething
who eva thought you'd ever be inspired by a beesting
these two need to keep flowin cos they keepin it proper
while others smell fishy like they been eatin a lobster
jus logged on and thought big u boys up - its tight.keep it comin.

This country's pulsing with some anger we can’t start to manage, see//
Turn on the news at six, its gas and bricks, its total anarchy//
Striking coz it bares a close resemblance wit 19-76//
Shit aint changed, bullshit still rolls off em politicians' lips//
Broken promises like Middle-East peace accord armistice//
Police clutching rifles double barrel gauge cocking it//
Rubber bullets, tear gas, this time it aint the foreigners making us fatherless//
But government with they hands in the pockets of economists//
Shits looking ominous while looking on at youth development//
Got whites thinking that we on the route to being like Zim! //
I say, “Fuck em”, flush em down with all they negative shit//
Give em directions to the nearest British Consulate quick//
But I’m a stay here and keep dropping thoughts wit a twist//
While they stand in line for Australian citizenship//
Learn Build Grow.

let'em go, let'em fall victim to the fallacy
the only problem is that SA is strugglin to maintain
a skilled workforce with all the murder and the braindrain
it drives me insane jis thinkin bout the hood
same nigger same corner ain't progressin like they should
instead of lookin to bibles and other sources as a template
they busy getn high, buying cases and getting pregnant
and these are peeps wit talents kid, lost in the labyrinth
money aint our only ishu, state of mind also challenges
and damages, peer pressure controlling the weak
instead of tryna elevate they'd rather roll on the street
and cos i'm at skool and tryna start a business - make some cheddar
these fools are on some "Yeah that dude must really think he's better"
so i say try follow a better lifestyle if you dare
and i'll get on my knees, think about your efforts and say a prayer

this is what Im talking about fellaz, this is hip hop now...props to both you soldiers...feeling it more than anything I have in a long time :D
continue...
and i'll get on my knees, think about your efforts and say a prayer/
because the foundation is cemented by an alert bricklayer/
came accross a soothsayer who told me of a coming omen/
that when I step out the door I will be assasinated by the doorman/
sent by the Ku Klux Klan comprising of committed black assassins/
because the hearts of my fellow men have turned to barrels of toxins/
infecting the moral code which taught the brotherhood of the ancients/
if Africans aint dying from wars, bet you they're AIDS patients/
so where's the promise of tomorrow that the past pledged/
because I have one lifetime, but death's blade is double-edged/
abused like a condom, like that guy, they picked me at random/
and disregarded my Entity which linked my spirit to God's kingdom/

Continuing...
And Gods kingdom seems far from where we are at this time more//
bars we spit we get to grips with something worth dying for//
Unlike dying for a nights' pleasure with fyne whores//
or 9 months down the line then you standing in line coz//
She cant decide who she done taken a ride for//
but thats the price you pay for composure and mind lost//
And now you thinking, was it worth the bump and the grind or//
was it wise at all, now you locked it the grind dawg!!!//
baby aint a plaything, responsiblity calls!!!//
Sex can be more dangerous than being a cash in transit guard!!//
So lets be careful wit it like glass...dont bull in a china store//
So when u bout to hit it raw....think who hit it before?//
peace

So when u bout to hit it raw....think who hit it before?/
recycled product might cramp the duct and leave your reality sore/
whats worse is a child who roams the earth as your split image/
without you present to witness him conquer this tumultous age/
so many bastaard sons feeding off social services' funds/
and soon enough the cigarrettes erase the breath in their lungs/
look in the mirror,challenge your reflection to answer the question/
of why your belly is full but spirit suffers from indigestion/
no hesitation, my soul has been built for moral combat/
musical sensations placed in an unusual choral format/
a morning freestyle to revive the thread we have woven/
until our relevance to this age has undoubtably been proven/
blood is thicker than water, but can it cleanse your soul/
we've been challenged to build bridges but first kill the troll/

and face murder charges whenever we yield the sword
too many people act brave when they feel the force
and then wonder why they end up in a prison ward
sometimes i feel it's all the same, that i've been here before
and that the route i'll take's already buried in my soul
but life comes fresh in a box, unpeeled and raw
and some will say the best way through life's to build a fort
but if you don't relate with peeps you won't be in the know
and in life you don't learn unless you've been exposed
unless you take notes and apply the things you're taught
coz like seeds we were all put in the field to grow
and if you don't you will never be in the zone
and if you not at your best someone's gon steel the show
and we all want to be remembered its in our bones
so quit stallin, on my count, 1, 2, 3, lets go

the ocean thats full of tears that mothers weep/
the ocean of lies that we think is reality/
reality is relative,it only ends in tragedy/
church, our hopes, our dreams,our haven/
is the fastest,surest way in which 2 bypass heaven/
if i got da bling,da car da fancy varsity degrees/
i claim 2 b liberated when i infact aint even free/
record companies string us along like we a symphony/
telling us we're good when all they want is our creativity/
luring us with all dem things that are good/
"we'll give u a car,we'll take u out of da hood/
see we aint thinkers wit dat they got us hook line and sinker/
to weak to realise dat they;re messing wit our lives/
too careless to see da simple fact of the matter/
U'R A RAPPER, a means 2 make their bank balaces fatter/
later peeps gotta go...... :D

for the more we are said to be freed raises the death tolls::
pure hearts rehabilitated in the blood on deadly foot-paths of these black ghouls::
thorns of cries piercing black hearts on the...blood-bathed streets of joburg::
with dreams of freedom resting in the palm of Bloomberg::
for with power comes respect and mental slave trade::
since freedom is a fiction story read to keep a black child motivated::
whereas it wouldn't exist within dimensions of our fear-struck thoughts::
for the black population is like a sect of--
mindless-angels with rights to rape-and-kill-us::

Thots from ma brain painting a picture, you’ll feel the rage
Once upon a time in humanity they punked the dark skin and labeled him a sin
These are the things I speech and in my rhyme you’ll see
As long as we segregated and isolated I’ll keep on repping the CBD
From all corners down South I’ll keep on sparking the seed
Hope your ears are wide open cos now the Beesting speaks
From Point, Maubray, and on Hilbrow I’ll produce this sad social scene
Some ish you need to see, cos some mainstream rappers are busy high on Es
What happened to hip hop as vehicle for these socials sins
I ain’t saying people shouldn’t feel free, to entertain and rip profits when they sing
It’s just that most of ma relatives are still housed within sludgy and paper walls
As if we don’t pay for taxes, fuck I’m taking ma government to lyrical war
Cos ma cousin’s still cursing her moms, cos she couldn’t provide it all
Unemployment is no joke, it’s where the divide is born
Rich will stay rich cos the Western ideologies we forge
The saying was “we privatize so that the poor people own”
Fuck your people, it’s my people they own
Waking up every morning from township to suburb, end of the month they paying loans
Black man forever a thug cos his salary he doesn’t solely own
Even ma fellow graduates be keep on tellin’ me that NSFAS is another scam for future financial slaves

When ma mind gets fully charged by electrified thots tht origin deep in ma heart\
I let go of tha heavey hope tht stresses ma shoulder joints till i fart\
Odours of disgust are set free by me when pressure plays its part\I start\
Not only sinkin in tha runnin river of poverty thts a product of a storm\
tht took place long before we were conceived to forget where we from\
Hate is a living kat with infinite lives it never dies it cums back in another form\
At this moment its replicatin in a normal black internal environment\
Yu see equality so far away yu affiliate with tha kat of hate permanantly\
