Hank Johnson, D-Ga., who reintroduced the Restoring Artistic Protection Act (RAP Act). and Rakim classic “Move the Crowd” during a news conference alongside Rep. "If Rakim didn't tell me 'With knowledge of self there's nothing I can't solve,' I never would have pursued knowledge of self which gave me the self esteem and self worth to be standing here before you today," said Bowman, quoting lyrics from the Eric B.

No remorse for the trust you're breaking. ~~The writer is basically yelling at his abuser for wanting him, cursing.~~ You push it back down / You push it back down He says he knew only the lies that the abuser told him, and is hurt, saying that it cuts deeply. ~~The writer is being sexually abused in these two verses. So the floating ufos that pass above us in the night, have to come down on the surface of the Earth to teach us being a wiser society.Īnother hint about this interpretation, is that Chester voice fades into an extraterrestrial voice at the end of the track. Then, in order to have "a future gazing out" and "a past to overwrite", Mike sings: "come down, far below, we've been waiting to collect the things you know".
