Reprise Songtext
von Erykah Badu

Y′all know what a cypher is?
Y'all know what a cypher is? (Yes)
Alright!
It′s all kinds of cyphers
But a cypher can be represented by a circle, which consists of how many degrees?
What? 360 degrees (360 degrees)
And my cypher keeps moving like a rolling stone

So in my song when I said that my cypher represents
Myself or the atoms in my body and the rolling stone represents the Earth
The atoms in the body rotate at the same rate on the same axis that the Earth rotates
Giving us a direct connection with the place we call Earth
Therefore, we can call ourselves Earth, okay?


Now, on my hand I wear Ankh, this is an Ankh
An ankh is an ancient Kemetic symbol
The word Kemet is the original name for Egypt
The symbols can be found on the walls of hieroglyphics in Kemet
The symbol represents "Life", alright!
This portion represents the womb
Sisters, put your hands on your wombs

This portion represents the male principle of the birth canal
Brothers put your hands on your male organs
And this portion represents the fallopian tubes
120, 120, 120, 360 degrees of life's completion, you emit life
In all I do, I try to represent life
Give birth to different things, melodies, music, prayers, babies
Now, I was going to tell y'all something else too

(Yeah, I remember that)
