[Jay Electronica]
Like a whirlwind pyramind
Word to D-O-C nigga the lyrics hit
Terrestrials in the chest where the spirit live
You now fuckin with the best extra extra
Read all about the extra terrests with Tourette's
They all wait in line for what's next
Abracadabra the crowd went deaf
Eyes went stage right but I went left
In one single bound went from M-Y-S
P-A-C-E man the mp-three man to mtv man
All by the willpower of my great skull like He-Man
See man...
I'm much better than
These young fucks runnin' amok yellin veteran
Arms too short for them to sport them a letterman..
So just chill young padawan
I'll guide you in the ways of the force
The crowd'll stand idle in amazement of course
So lounge on the drama

(Mama, mama, mama)

Take that nigga
They say I'm Kevin Spacey K-PAX nigga
One mic one show three acts is a, masterpiece
Harass the beast
Until he throw down his sword

(Ok one more time one more time)

Til he throw down his rod
T minus ten til the throw down with God

Sample: "One of the most mysterious books ever written is the Book of Revelation or the Apocalypse. This book reveals the future of the world and your part in it. The Book of Revelation, the last book in your Bible, features apocalyptic symbols and secrets."

Timothy Elpadaro Thedford (born September 19, 1976), better known by his stage name Jay Electronica, is an American rapper and record producer. He is from New Orleans, Louisiana and currently based in London, United Kingdom.

Electronica first gained significant attention after the release of the musical composition Act Eternal Sunshine (The Pledge), which was made available on a MySpace page in 2007 and has been called a “timeless classic” by Vice Magazine. It is fifteen continuous minutes of music, without drums, built from Jon Brion’s soundtrack to the film Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. In late 2009 he released two singles, both produced by Just Blaze, “Exhibit A” and “Exhibit C”, the latter of which won a Sucker Free Summit Award for Instant Classic. In November 2010, it was announced Jay Electronica had signed to hip hop mogul Jay Z’s Roc Nation record label.

More than a decade after his last project, What the Fuck is a Jay Electronica, and almost exactly eight years to the DAY after he reportedly finished and turned in his album, Jay Electronica finally released his debut studio album A Written Testimony on March 13, 2020. The album features Jay-Z on eight of its ten tracks, leading some to label it a collab album between the two Jays. The-Dream also makes three appearances, and even Travis Scott makes a surprising appearance on “The Blinding.”
