Faza is a settlement on the North coast on Pate Island, within the Lamu Archipelago in Kenya's former Coast Province.
Faza was known by the name of Ampaza by the Portuguese dates back at least to the 14th century. In 1587 Faza was destroyed by the Portuguese as the local Sheikh had supported Mirale Bey, a notorious privateer who had earlier played a key role in ousting the Portuguese from Muscat. The Portuguese arrived from Goa with some 650 men on their punitive expedition, and unleashed their fury on Faza. Everybody they could find was killed, including the local Sheikh. The Portuguese preserved his head in a barrel of salt for display in India. After 4 days of looting they invited Fazas arch-rivals from Pate town to take away anything that they liked from Faza.
Faza was later resettled. The Portuguese in Faza constructed a chapel there, however, nothing remains of it. In the 18th century Faza again fell into decline due to the rise of Pate. The English Consul Holmwood visited the place in 1873 and found it "dirty and infected with diseases".

I try not to be, too tempermental
Everything I do yes it's true it's meant for mental renovation
With innovation laced it, embalmin fluid
flew it through your speaker do it make you want to seek your soul
like Nat King Cole, my shit is gold
I hold a pole of polarity, like a wand and fondle phrases
ages, before you ever heard a lion roar
My minions were preparing for my birth to unearth the black core
The pearl of persistance to keep your interest
Keep evildoers outside with fences
I make my rhymes audible and portable and sort it for
the burst of energy cuz it's affordable of course
there's more to throw, to the sharks, and modify the marks
Perhaps I use a parable of Rosa Parks, on the front of the bus
I don't discuss coming less than us
Dirty devils never ques-tion us!!
Yeah, Hieroglyphics in the house, Souls of Mischief
Yeah check it out
[Verse Three: A-Plus]

Went to school unleaded

Get beheaded by the crew dreaded, MC dicer, I'sa
little bit wiser, but yo my shit is nicer
The ill price you pay is this, I slice MC's with my greatest hits

The tension thickens, your heart rate quickens
Damn near beatin out your chest, ya can't predict what's next
I bet conviction is stressful, MC's that bite they wrestle
with the mic, all night, hopin to recite
Excite, captivate the crowd, make my momma proud, now
and forever will I drain, Souls of Mischief supreme
The crown tipped, to the side, you don't wanna collide
A landslide victory for the team they all died

It's like that and-uh
[Verse Five: Phesto]
A Hieroglyphics yeah
Clearly distinguished from these incompetent niggaz
playin possum with the mic, suckin peanuts
Tryin to be Phes, freak it with a twist
but missed, by a long shot, I hope they all flop
I manipulate the mic as a concussive force
No remorse for, preluckin MC's
I couldn't be cut with, the keenest of blades
Holstering the limits of pressing in it, projecting my image
like a hologram, reanimatin MC's
Shamrock deceased, base Phes jus dissipated the rest
A waiting antihistamine is distressed and jaded
Phes escalated as the mack of all trades
Yeah, uh-huh
Souls of Mischief, Hieroglyphics, throw your hands in the air c'mon!
Yeah, you know we don't stop
Oakland California, hah
