En force, Asiatic attaque en rimes
Déclarant la nouvelle ère de panique
Tu restes statique, mais lis et réalise ainsi
Crie au monde bien ceci que "Je suis"
IAM, Imperial Asiatic Men
Nouvelle forme qui revient soudain
Tu traces, mais relax, max
Jamais je ne taxe, mais place ma voix sur wax autour d'un axe
Efface sur le fax et chasse les traces
Disant que t'es un as sur le 24 tracks
Shurik'n, Akhénaton et Khéops
Ont poussé la limite, jusqu'où? Jusqu'au max
I comme Imperial, indivisible et immuable
Impulsif et inchangeable
Comme l'empire chinois et les dynasties
De haute et basse Egypte et le Dieu d'Akhanjati
Aton Almighty, A comme Asiatic
Première lettre de l'alphabet pour la terre mère Afrique
Milieu du tao, je frappe dans le pao
N'essaie pas de lutter ou tu restera K.O.
M tous mes frères, M tel que Men signifie
Hommes, égaux en droits, les mêmes et en somme
Fait rayonner le diadème de la reine unité :
Devrais-je dire IAM
Et une fois encore le soleil renaît
Derrière le temple d'or de Buddha le vénéré
IAM régi par les lois de l'univers
Appuyé par Chang-ti dans leur prières
Inonde de lumière d'or
Le double pays, terre entière, du seigneur Ré-Hor
Akhti, Aton, vivant
Qui est tu? Bien posé, "Je suis" par état de fait
IAM, deux peuples éloignés géographiquement
Au savoir rapproché théologiquement
Mais éternellement en mouvement, soulignant
Le désir d'évoluer scientifiquement
I.A.M. plus qu'un groupe, en fait logé
Au rang de leader du savoir et c'est
Avec un peu de logique, déduction mathématique
Inutile de lutter devant les poètes de l'Alliance afro-asiatique
Car le brother Shurik'n vient d'Afrique
Enseignant la balistique
De ses mots en micro en solo, duo le chaos
Je dis go aussitôt vient le flot percutant les sots
Et d'autres idiots, faisant l'apologie
De crimes, des vols, des viols et tous délits
Ce prochain thème pose un problème
Aux descendants de Khem, devrais-je dire IAM
Que l'univers en soit témoin S.H.U.R.I.K.E.N.
Raw, enflamme la scène
Car AKHE commença live des quartiers nord
De Marseille, jusqu'à Brooklyn New York
Le lord s'accorde au hip hop, pas à la mode
DJ Khéops transforme et comme un code
En période, déforme, les disques, les mix, les fixe
Sur 24 pistes, yo' stoppe la musique
Ramène le rythme, OK la mélodie
L'histoire est à revoir, ainsi voici l'explication
Et l'argumentation de la fondation
De la civilisation des nations
Depuis Akkad, Elam, depuis Sumer
Un humain sur terre a tant et tant marché
Sur les mains, le ventre, le cul, la tête, les pieds
Cet homme est l'homme noir exploité, déraciné
Voilà pourquoi IAM, d'ivoire ou d'ébène
Les hommes ont pour origine en fait la même
Et il est temps de reconnaître
Que l'histoire actuelle est fausse et malhonnête
Afin de maintenir, asservir, assouvir
La soif de pouvoir de l'occident à l'avenir
Contenir, les colonies dans l'ignorance
L'Europe a instauré l'esclavage par l'absence
De vérité historique, connaissances imprégnées
De culture indigène en présence
Recusant l'hypothèse profonde
Que certains pays noirs ont civilisé le monde
Intervient, en ces termes, sentinelle universelle
D'une main ferme, sucker
Entends ma théorie tu resteras blême
Au son de ces mots devrais-je dire IAM
