    Man is a genius.

  • what is it? im hard at decoding poetry.

  • i mean bad at. lol

  • @slipknot9023 I feel you. Listen to Amethyst Rock Star. His poetry is so unbeleivably dense but that's why I love it!

  • @slipknot9023 lol i don't know what the fuck was wrong with me when i wrote this comment, so many grammatical errors, well, saul williams blows my mind, yeah, thats my excuse

  • and they say americans are stupid

    just listen to the wisdom of saul williams

  • This Is hip-hop

  • Word

  • This song thumps so H0RD!!

  • SAUL WILLIAMS !!!!!!!!

  • ZACH!!!

  • Saul Williams is EPIC; all i can say.

  • fuck this is mind blowing to bad no one listens to real hip hop they listen to that lil wayne bull shit

  • Im glad i have never heard lil wayne; all ive heard are bad things. If one of his songs was playing I wouldnt even know its him and i really glad. It seems the year after I graduated thats all i head people talking about lil wayne. Any rapper who uses lil in there name is deffinately going to suck unless they were the first to do it. Why is it so many rappers use lil in there name?????Its beyong clichéd.

  • yea lil wayne is destroying hip hop, mc's like blackalicious are keeping it alive

  • best underground rap song ever!

  • the song that got me into hip hop

    i will never forget it

    it's still amazing.

  • This shit gets the blood flowing!

  • One of my favourite songs ever. The lyrics are so spiritual and speak to something deeper than the conscious.

  • 3:00

  • My favourite song on the album, just so poetic.

  • i'm pretty sure the guy who says release is zach de la rocha from rage against the machine. can anyone confirm?

  • yeah it is zach de la rocha

  • Comment removed

  • dope!

  • everyone who listens to this song should be inspired to listen to saul williams, he is the one with the most amazing verse in hip hop in the middle of the song.

    I can think of nothing heavier than an airplane

    There is no greater conglomarate of steel and metal

    I can think of nothing so likely to fly

    There are no wings more weighed

    I too have felt a heaviness

    The stare of a man guessing at my being

  • Love that section!

  • I'm not used to hearing such amazing lyrics in a hip hop song, but I like it.

  • @drewmcgtx its "nothing LESS likely to fly"

  • @drewmcgtx everytime i hear that part it gives me chills

  • 'shower me with blessings, no second guessing. 'cause God herself is sitting on the edge of my bed, slowly undressing. a night symbolic as the ressurection. im about to slide up into the kingdom of God with no protection.

    and i can guarantee a second comming, 'cause i already hear the drummer boy barumpapumpumming. a host of angels look at me through your eyes. my first communion with my hands on your thighs. youre catching the spirit the Holy Ghost and the fire. Yo this is wild'

  • So motivational! fuck, I love this song!

  • Part 2 is the most incredible thing I may have heard in hip hop. So deep, and so insane.

  • yeah !!

  • Gab goes off!!

  • gotta be a spirit.

    can't be no ghost.

  • You can also hear Zack De La Rocha in the back.

    "Release" with Lyrics Born and Zack De La Rocha on Blazing Arrow by Blackalicious - taken from wikipedia :D

  • yes, as well as lyrics born. he's featured in part 3.

  • mean flow

  • One of my all time favorite callobos... a couple of legends coming together to make a mighty musical fist

  • Holy fuckkkkkk.

  • unbelievable.
