Roots of Being - Magister Verbi

First track from the new album (under construction) by Magister Verbi, a history and literature professor who loves rap. The song explores the connection between knowledge, history and culture, tracing a journey through ancient civilizations, such as Egypt, Rome and Greece. The author celebrates the human intellect, the search for truth and the wisdom that has evolved over time, intertwining historical figures such as Cicero, Plato, Newton, Dante and Aristotle. Far from simply telling history, the song unites the past and the present, using rap as a tool to awaken thought and reflection, suggesting that knowledge is never static, but continues to be discovered and reinterpreted. ### In the twilight of forgotten empires, where myth and history entwine like ivy on marble, the soul of man first sought to name itself. This is the genesis — the beginning of thought, etched in stone, whispered in scrolls, and now carried by rhythm. From the Nile’s fertile cradle to Rome’s eternal flame, I walk through centuries where knowledge bore no shame. Like Cicero in the forum, I let syllables resound, my verses march in cadence where ancient truths are found. Through parchment and pillar, I trace the scholar’s flight, from Plato’s cave to Newton’s prism of light. Each line a lantern, each metaphor a blade, cutting through the shadows that ignorance has made. These are the roots of being — ancient, deep, divine, drawn from minds that dared to question space and time. History’s breath still lingers in the air, so I rap to awaken the thinker that lies there. I decipher echoes in the ruins of Carthage, hear Aristotle preaching in logic’s tight corsage. The scrolls of Alexandria still burn in my rhyme, resurrected by cadence, reborn through time. Herodotus and Homer in ciphered harmony, speaking through stanzas with mythic authority. Through Dante’s descent and Beatrice’s gaze, I learned that love and knowledge share the same blaze. Not every truth wears armor or wears a crown, some truths are buried, waiting to be found. And I — I am the voice of the lecture hall and the street, where Socrates and Tupac finally meet. These are the roots of being — ancient, deep, divine, drawn from minds that dared to question space and time. History’s breath still lingers in the air, so I rap to awaken the thinker that lies there. No man is born wise — but through the corridors of memory, and the rhythm of rebellion, we become.

I don't know if you're willing to share, but is SUNO giving you any special treatment?
The start of this track is definitely NOT generated by SUNO, and if I try and upload anything that is has already been mastered correctly or it contains anything that sounds like a human voice, I can't share that upload or any track derived from it.
So what gives?

I can tell you have little experience, then. If you li##en to my other 500 songs you can find hundreds of crazy sounds, recreated by trying and trying again with styles and prompts. Carmen's album is a clear proof.
