Positive Black Soul Follow

Flashback, it’s time to check out history
Lemme tell you his story, a bit of mystery,
The way I say it is musical
As they used to bust it back in the African typical
Soul people, now you feel [that] I’ve got skills
My shit is real,
And my style kills
Just like the rainbow
I spread seven colors on your head
I’m the symbol of knowledge, call me djelly
One who transmits history, I’m like Koli [Senegalese hero],
More knowledgeable than a Bible
The knowledge involved like the Bible
My wisdom is my weapon
Reminisce the recital of the musical poetry,
Lyrical wizardry,
Mystic darkness meets majestic blackness
Africky, colly, that’s the holy djelly
I nourish your mind but not your belly
Hangin’ on my roots, I’ll be a bliggey de bliggey
Oh well, it’s the return of the djelly
Yes, it’s the return of the djelly

Yes, it’s the return of the djelly,
Yes, it’s the turn of ola niggy Nubian,
That’s how they call me
I expect respect, check the djelly
Mention the man
He’s one in a million
I will take you to places you’ve never been
A ride back to the roots you’ve never seen
Cos’ I’m the storyteller, the teacher, the preacher,
I wanna meet you
Hey girl, hey boy
I will teach you how to build And how to destroy
How to live in harmony with the forces of nature
Then nothing will never separate you
From the motherland, alkebu-lan land
With peace around the corner . . . Nubian
Now that you’ve got an invitation
Return of the djelly
Come with the djelly in the land of meditation

Haters always try to false my identity
Showin’ an African continent ain’t no destiny
Don’t want black people to live in community
And teachin’ white is right, black is wrong and all that
See, some people still faking the funk
Saying that they love Africa
But it’s a funk on a dunk

If you should a know by now
The djelly—I will tell you now
Shout it out, people, shout it out loud
Lord have mercy, this the djelly
Listen, I have to tell you about your history
No matter where you come from
This is Don Doug-e-tee, the djelly, me have
To tell you some, black man
You have to know about your ancestry
No matter who you are, just come fe ball out fe we
Positive Black Soul, Awadi and Doug-e-tee
Lord have mercy
It’s the return of the djelly
Come with the djelly to the land of meditation
It’s the djelly
