Blind anyone that laughs at my kind.  
Why? Because PRT is holy as the mind.

Thoughts created from the crescent of the brain cell. 
Fell deep into this mic that  I be holding. 
I told them PRT is always soul controllin' .  
They laugh but listen to the lessons I be born I'm the teacher
Or am I subjected to the negative no.  
It's amazing how my thoughts can be wrote to perform.
