[Verse 1 : Erykah Badu]
Oh my my my I'm feeling high
My moneys gone, I'm all alone
The world keeps turning
Oh what a day, what a day, what a day
Peace and blessings manifest with every lesson learned
If your knowledge were your wealth then it would be well earned
If we were made in his image then call us by our names
Most intellects do not believe in God but they fear us just the same

[Hook]
Oh on and on and on and on
My cypher keeps moving like a rolling stone
On and on and on and on
All night till the break of dawn
I go on and on and on and on
My cypher keeps moving like a rolling stone
Oh on and on and on and on
Goddammit I'mma sing my song

[Verse 2 : Erykah Badu]
I was born under water
With three dollars and six dimes
Yeah you might laugh cause you did not do your math
Like one, two, three
Damn, yall feel that
Like one, two, three
The world keeps turning
Oh what a day, what a day, what a day
The man that knows something knows that he knows nothing at all
Does it seem colder in your summertime and hotter in your fall
If we were made in his image then call us by our names
Most intellects do not believe in God but they fear us just the same

[Hook]
Oh on and on and on and on
My cypher keeps moving like a rolling stone
On and on and on and on
All night till the break of dawn
I go on and on and on and on
My cypher keeps moving like a rolling stone
Oh on and on and on and on
Goddammit I'mma sing my song

[Verse 3 : Erykah Badu]
I am feeling kinda hungry cause my high is coming down
Don't feed me yours cause your food does not endure
I think I need a cup of tea, the world keeps burning
Oh what a day, what a day what a day
You rush into destruction cause you don't have nothing left
The mothership can't save you so your ass is gon get left
If we were made in his image then call us by our names
Most intellects do not believe in God but they fear us just the same

[Chorus]
Oh on and on and on and on
My cypher keeps moving like a rolling stone
On and on and on and on
All night till the break of dawn
I go on and on and on and on
My cypher keeps moving like a rolling stone
On and on and on and on
Mad props to the God JaBorn

Daniel Dumile (July 13, 1971 – October 31, 2020), a.k.a. MF DOOM, (who also rapped under further alter egos Viktor Vaughn and King Geedorah and in the collaborative project Madvillain) was an English-born American hip-hop artist, best known for his “super villain” stage persona and unique lyricism. In 1988, he formed the group K.M.D.—which stands for “Kausing Much Damage”—with his brother, DJ Subroc. At the time, his stage name was Zev Love X. KMD was eventually signed to Elektra Records after some minor hype, and they released one album titled Mr. Hood. In 1993, before the release of their second album, Black Bastards, Subroc was struck and killed by a car. After his brother’s death, Dumile quit rapping and lived on benches for three years. He soon began rapping underground with his now iconic mask.

This disguise was based on a prop mask from the May 2000 film, Gladiator. In 1998, DOOM told Ego Trip, “it’s music we’re selling, not my face.” You can see how DOOM’s mask changed through the years here. Dumile then adopted the MF DOOM identity, based on Marvel supervillian Doctor Doom. Although, he told an interviewer that the name was actually a nickname from his

Yeah and for the record I didn’t get the idea from [Doctor Doom]… [laughs]. I been Doom ever since I was born, my momma call me Doom so…
