(Intro: TV Show Samples)
Forty-five centuries ago, one of the most extraordinary feats of human history rose out of the Egyptian desert.
For centuries the pyramid builders were thought to be slaves.
Hollywood fed the myth of the captive labor force cringing under the whip.
But one day in 1990 a remarkable discovery shattered that myth forever.
Inside was a glympse of eternity.
I am a little bit afraid, yes. You'd be silly not to be afraid.
Egypt's most controversial pharaohs...

(Verse 1: Apathy)
Feelin' brand new like I'm fresh outta jail
Like Jordans on sale, like a plate full of kale
Like Jonah outta the whale, your first piece of tail
Naked pics in a email cause Ap will never fail
Take notes, make quotes, jot 'em down on a pad
I'm hardcore, '87 LL I'm Bad
So sickular, ridiculous the way that my scriptures
Shock rappers like sticking a fork in a light fixture
Bio-chemical mixture, poisonous elixir
Metamorpher, full moon shower, shapeshifter
Pack guns, stack funds wait for the black sun
Speak to me in code but to be one ask one
Masked man, bat in my hand, you need a catscan
Brainwaves overloading in these rap fans
State the facts so we snap like Raiders caps
Play with Ap, they'll be at your funeral playin' taps

(Hook: Scratched Samples 1)
""I set the microphone on fire""
""Tryin' to disrespect me and your half-ass rhymes""
""That ass is mine""
(Bridge: TV Show Vocal Samples)
They would use traditional tools...
200 years...
Which began to disenegrate as never before.
By modern standards, the design is unusual and maybe even dangerous...

(Verse 2: Trace Element and Apathy)
(Trace Element:)
Trace and Ap shoot the gift to write conflict
Encrypted in each manuscript
(Apathy:)
Equipped with clips a killin' a machine
An evil Philistine, ill as Marines
(Trace Element:)
Contract killer regime
The two of us equals hardcore
Comparing us is like the Marine Corps to the Peace Corps
(Apathy:)
The four-four put these motherfuckers in the earth floor
All I give a fuck about is money and whores and retail stores
(Trace Element:)
Mixed together there is no better than an Ikonik Pharaoh
(Apathy:)
The emperor's clothed in new apparel
So suckas better vanish
(Trace Element:)
We do damage
(Apathy:)
When we crushin' all your planets
(Trace Element:)
You can't manage
(Apathy:)
Mechanics when we slammin'
(Trace Element:)
Feel the cannons
(Apathy:)
We span the horizon
(Trace Element:)
His name is Apathetic so take a guess if he gives two shits
(Apathy:)
Bitch, I don't give a fuck, Ap's an undertaker
(Trace Element:)
Meet my glock named the force saver
(Apathy:)
Fuckin' haters

(Hook: Scratched Samples 2)
""This is real rap""
""I thought I'd bring it back for a change of pace""
(Outro: TV Show Sample)
As never before, modern science is breathing new life into the secrets of the pharaohs.
