Rakim “Holy Are You”

Rakim=Holy_Are_You=200=ChristianRapHipHopNewsLast week we posted a video of Loom proclaiming Islam.  He talked about how we will be using hip-hop to communicate the message of Allah.  This week… our homie Troy from 3HP sent us this video, a track by Rakim talking about “Holy Are You” …yeah, listen to the track… holler with ya thoughts!!

Just for clarification, here are the lyrics (Thanks Bert!):

Holy are you
Holy are you
There is no God but you (ah huh)
There is no God but you
(I need to talk to y’all for a minute)
Praised be the Lord
(And be serious for a minute)

Holy are you
Holy are you
There is no God but you
There is no God but you (Rakim Allah)

G-O-D, the God MC
Yeah

For those who find it hard to believe, and it is
Why they call me the God MC, the lyricist
Trace this down to the roots from Genesis
The world wonder, I’m still standing like pyramids
Design so vivid, every brick it got a story to tell
My rhyme flow different like a hieroglyphic
Mind prolific, infinite, like mathematic
The first language, now add that, and add graphics (Go head)
Then go let the blocks know its the gospel
Life’s new manual, so watch close
The new Michelangelo and Pablo Picasso
Prepared to show you the cosmos and rock flows
Even my lyrical metaphysical
What this’ll do is help you get to your spiritual pinnacle
You find your mind too far-fetched for it to fathom
I bring the darkness to the light, split the atom
Its like watching the big bang theory emerge
I take titles, bond them to reveal new words
They want a clear view
From the farthest and the darkest corners of the universe
To a corner near you
A pharaoh in ghetto apparel, stay blinged up
Fort Knox display, a modern day King Tut
Wrapped tight, rap like I’ve been preserved in time
Spit the holy water, then touch it and turn it to wine
Its the God

Holy are you
Holy are you
There is no God but you (I am, I am the Alpha and Omega)
There is no God but you
Praised be the Lord

We were children of the most high, so we fell
From paradise to holy hell
Probably descendants of the Holy Grail
Another part of history they wont reveal
Times’ll only tell
You waiting for Judgment? It came
In the form of a thug in the game
To create a strong position, there’s blood in my vein
The chemical is identical, we one and the same
With seven letters in all three of my government names
Walk on water? Nah, neither did Jesus
Its a parable to make followers and readers believers
From Egypt to Budapest, Rakim is the truest left
Understand the Scriptures like the minister Louis F
I told you who God is, you ignored me like most the prophets
Jesus, Solomon, Abraham, Moses and Muhammad
I showed the scholars, well fulfill the broken promise
I spit this truth to predict the future like Nostradamus
Like Revelations, I’m hoping my quotes reveal
The seven spirits of God when I open the seal
Interpret the holy Quran, these flows will guide you
Translate the Torah, and decode the Bible
Warn the elders in the mosques, ma-sons, and the law
The seven churches, the synagogues, its the Renaissance
Skin is bronze, like the Messiah
Rakim Allahs bout to reveal a bigger secret than time and the God

Holy are you
Holy are you
There is no God but you (I want to challenge you)
There is no God but you (and soon I will challenge you)
Praised be the Lord (I am, I am the Alpha and Omega)

Rakim Allah The God MC
