Okay this is a song that I heard back in the early 2010s. It's a bit older than that, likely mid/late 90s to early 00s. No matter what I do, I cannot find it using a search engine.
Planning on cross posting in r/hiphop101 for good measure.
These lyrics are likely not in the right order, and may not be accurate verbatim, but here's what i can remember:
*Starts off with "here we goooo" .... "I love you america, I love you. You're crazy but I love you"
*"We had culture, language, plus we knew god. Before we had Christ, we could read stars" and then something along the lines of "we could sell seas here em coming in the h2O, a power in my melody, here we go"
*"we're like crabs in a barrel it's just how we act one brother try to climb while we stab him in the back. The biggest problem we got in life is US. Jealousy, elitists, no love, no trust. PLUS a lotta black daddy's ain't at home, but they didn't get in the situation alone... a lot of black women say they don't need a man, don't listen to that bullshit that all you're friends saying. Yall trying to go against God's Devine plan, man feed woman like water feed plant"
*"seagulls by the sea shore covered in oil. Sisters want love, brothers want sex. Industrial prison complex. White House school vouchers really a game. Republicans democrats really the same. Texas black man electric chair. Cracker said the OJ trial wasn't fair. Can't even believe that they would go there. America aint fair thats why we're here"
*there's a line in there about the Ozone, as well but that memory is clouded...

Check out ALTA. This beat is darker/trappy but the lyrics beneath are really empowering
This may not even be the place to find this. But everything seems like it's wiped online. All of his youtube videos are private now. If anyone has a place I can go to download his music, please let me know, I've been on the search for a while now.
Hi I’m looking for a song I came across on YouTube years ago, there was an into poem type thing that was talking about how money is a flow of energy and like attracts like and that it’s spiritual? A bit hotep vibes. I think 90s New York duo or group? The aesthetics were like De La Soul’s 3 ft High album cover. Colourful. It was like “money is a flow of energy…” please help me find this song
