My mom has my car one day and this cd was in. She didn’t mess with my radio ever so when she picked me up from work, she said” this guy is speaking the truth!” I was so happy that my mom finally understood my hip hop
[Intro] Now I don’t be fooling around, I tell the truth. Nothing’s secret Secret
[Verse 1: Jeru the Damaja] As devils search for the secrets to immortality I alter my physical chemistry Walk through the valley of the shadow of death I exist even when no things are left Vibrations transcend space and time Pure at heart because I deal with the mind That's why I compose these verses Audible worlds, my thoughts are now universes Written on these pages is the ageless wisdom of the sages Ignorance is contagious So I hope you keep your focus There's no hocus-pocus, in the end it's just us Devil got brother killing brother, it's insane Going out like Abel and Cain Wisen up and use your brain There'll be no limit, to the things that you can gain In positivity, balance it with negativity Until then, ain't the devil happy
[Hook] Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Ain't the Devil happy
[Verse 2: Jeru the Damaja] I hate when the Devil's happy, so I wear my hair nappy Knotty, won't go out like John Gotti He came from the caves to destroy everybody And we like fools destroy our own bodies Too many niggas chilling, bad boys boom boom This leaves no room for the flowers to bloom Seeds blow in the wind, another drug killing What are we accomplishing? Nothing What's the matter? Why everytime I look around another brain gets splattered? Some pockets get fatter but it don't matter The Devil's the only one who really gets fatter Lead ruptures flesh, spleens are shattered Dreams are shattered, another Queen without a King What will our children become without proper guidance? Probably nothing, so ain't the Devil happy
[Hook] Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Ain't the Devil happy
[Verse 3: Jeru the Damaja] Niggas are in a state of nothingness Hopelessness, lifelessness If you're in range, I hope you hear this And try to change this 'cause it's disastrous Who gets the most loot? Who gets bust? Dollar bill y'all is the god we trust The days blow by like dust,even Men of Steel rust We're out here acting ridiculous, when only we can save us Mentally enslave us for little or nothing, kill our neighbors Animalistic, cannibalistic behavior Look to the sky for your Savior He won't save ya, he didn't save your forefathers Why bother, brothers? You must discover the power of self Know thyself or find thyself Hating thyself, killing thyself While he collects the wealth that you sit back and murder for Ain't the Devil happy?

Still the truth! Still fire like day 1!!! Peace to Jeru!!!!
Sounds like he is warning us about democrats. The devil is happy with their sick satanic policies.
Tirelessly relevant!
700k!!!!
its that hard to find this song right away
freshness
shout out to Jeru this is just banging. forgot about this song for about ten years.
It’s funny cause nothing today is even close to this. Yet when this song came out, not too many recognized the wisdom in it.
Designed and dedicated my first tattoo to this.

Lyrics
[Intro]
Now I don’t be fooling around, I tell the truth. Nothing’s secret
Secret
[Verse 1: Jeru the Damaja]
As devils search for the secrets to immortality
I alter my physical chemistry
Walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I exist even when no things are left
Vibrations transcend space and time
Pure at heart because I deal with the mind
That's why I compose these verses
Audible worlds, my thoughts are now universes
Written on these pages is the ageless wisdom of the sages
Ignorance is contagious
So I hope you keep your focus
There's no hocus-pocus, in the end it's just us
Devil got brother killing brother, it's insane
Going out like Abel and Cain
Wisen up and use your brain
There'll be no limit, to the things that you can gain
In positivity, balance it with negativity
Until then, ain't the devil happy
[Hook]
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ain't the Devil happy
[Verse 2: Jeru the Damaja]
I hate when the Devil's happy, so I wear my hair nappy
Knotty, won't go out like John Gotti
He came from the caves to destroy everybody
And we like fools destroy our own bodies
Too many niggas chilling, bad boys boom boom
This leaves no room for the flowers to bloom
Seeds blow in the wind, another drug killing
What are we accomplishing? Nothing
What's the matter?
Why everytime I look around another brain gets splattered?
Some pockets get fatter but it don't matter
The Devil's the only one who really gets fatter
Lead ruptures flesh, spleens are shattered
Dreams are shattered, another Queen without a King
What will our children become without proper guidance?
Probably nothing, so ain't the Devil happy
[Hook]
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ain't the Devil happy
[Verse 3: Jeru the Damaja]
Niggas are in a state of nothingness
Hopelessness, lifelessness
If you're in range, I hope you hear this
And try to change this 'cause it's disastrous
Who gets the most loot? Who gets bust?
Dollar bill y'all is the god we trust
The days blow by like dust,even Men of Steel rust
We're out here acting ridiculous, when only we can save us
Mentally enslave us for little or nothing, kill our neighbors
Animalistic, cannibalistic behavior
Look to the sky for your Savior
He won't save ya, he didn't save your forefathers
Why bother, brothers?
You must discover the power of self
Know thyself or find thyself
Hating thyself, killing thyself
While he collects the wealth that you sit back and murder for
Ain't the Devil happy?
[Hook]
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ain't the Devil happy
Pure truth!!! Also 99.9 percent…dmx, prodigy, mj and so on were killed by talking truth!….
Underrated
listening to this track, tears sometimes flow to me. Peace and goodwill from Russia.
