Lyrics Moses - Slick Rick
I
try
to
block
it
out
my
mind
As
you
see
[at]
Ruler
show′s
is
inquirin'
noses
Goin′
into
a
story
about
a
kid
named
Moses
Once
a
prophet
was
to
be
born,
so
for
anything
else
furthered
Pharaoh
orders
every
first-born
son
murdered
One
got
away,
a
girl
with
profit
bound
with
her
Gently
put
him
in
a
basket,
went
floatin'
down
the
river
Then
ends
up
by
a
Pharaoh
relative,
ol'
honey
peeped
in
Couldn′t
breed
herself
and
was
determined
to
keep
him
"Don′t
say
a
word",
she
told
her
slave
who
was
a
real
witch
"Snitch,
it'll
definitely
be
the
last
day
you
breathe
bitch"
While
kids
slaughtered,
′cause
they
was
[in]
front
of
them
Soldiers
tellin'
the
king
that
they
murdered
every
one
of
them
"Thanks"
said
Pharoah,
guys
were
a
friend
to
him
Sister
showin′
her
baby
sayin'
"[on]
the
river
God
sent
him"
To
her
brother
who
arose
and
said,
"whoa
sis!"
Curious
I
suppose
this,
the
upward
knows
about
Moses
As
time
passed
he
proved
he
wasn′t
the
type
to
beg
or
borrow
Grew
to
conquer
lands
like
ain't
no
tomorrow
Made
the
son
King
jealous
'cause
he
couldn′t
do
what
Mo′
did
"Pops
I'm
not
to
happy
the
way
y′all
jockin'
this
Mo′
kid"
"Son,
this
rash
behavior
ruins
every
feast
or
bash"
"And
why
complain,
now
where's
the
temple
I
asked
you
to
build,
you
piece
of
trash?"
"Two
of
you
switch,
Mo′
you
build
it
and
you'll
find
a
supreme
hero"
"Built
it.
Anything
else,
you
need
Pharaoh?"
"King
here's
startin′
to
share
my
crown"
One
said,
"How
can
he?"
But
sister
not
takin′
any
chance
and
threw
the
hooker
off
the
balcony
But
word
still
got
to
King,
who
then
cold
cursed
Blessed
Stripped
him
of
his
honors
and
dumped
him
in
the
desert
But
Mo'
returned
for
the
people,
with
his
chest
stiff
out
saw
King
said,
"You
want
war?
Make
brick
without
straw"
That′s
a
son
not
being
king,
the
shorty
no
good
[a]rose
his
Unhappy
I
suppose
this,
the
upward
knows
about
Moses
The
new
king
said,
"As
for
your
threats,
brother
stuff
it"
"Boy,
what
do
I
do
now?"
prayed
the
Prophet
Then
a
vision
said
"chill"
and
prophecy
filled
Scorn
build,
hails
the
fire,
all
their
first-born
killed
It
was
gettin'
scary
for
the
king,
this
made
the
sufferin′
go
by
merrier
"You
win,
take
these
peasants,
get
the
flock
out
of
my
area"
Poor
villain,
still
in
heat,
didn't
want
Mo′
to
fulfill
'em
Wasn't
chillin′,
"then
I′ll
flat
send
the
troops
to
go
and
kill
him"
So
Mo'
parts
the
sea,
went
across
and
said
"run"
and
Did
some
ol′
abracadabra
and
water
fell
upon
'em
The
soldiers
that
is,
since
Moses
was
suaver
Then
Mo′
in
the
mountains
havin'
a
convo
with
the
father
Came
back
with
the
tens,
seen
pantyhose
droppin′,
partner
swappin'
Folks
wasn't
into
what
poor
Mo′
was
poppin′
So
the
Earth
shook
and
killed
those,
bible
text
closes
Talked
about
a
time
when
idle
worshippin'
foes
had
met
