Rise

(album: The Garden - 2014)

[Spoken:]
What a day we're having
Out in the garden, having fun
It's one of those days but when the sun rays blaze
You don't even get burnt
And when it rains, it's like liquid sunshine, magic!

I bring the beat to life, speak my mind, people take a peek inside
Believe I'm nice, hear me defy thee to even find an MC as deep as I
A decent guy, sweet as a piece of pecan pie when he combines
Beats and rhymes even blind people might see the light
Beaming bright either side, gleaming like streets at night
So seek and ye shall find peace of mind, deep inside
No need to read the fine lined print or reason why
Don't even try, ask me and I will be your guide
Lead you by the hand and you will see the sights
Feel a vibe tease your spine and leave you feeling fine
You'll be excited to be alive
From calves, knees and thighs to heartbeats and minds
We can lead a life of peace and kindness or we can fight, just

Rise until the sun's in your eyes
Rise until the sun's in your eyes
Rise until the sun's in your eyes
Rise until the sun's in your eyes

My eagle eye will read between the lines and see the lies these deceivers write
They cynically decide the things you need to buy and then repeat the cycle
Until the people all believe it's right
We need to realise it's free to be polite and treat a being like he or she is being equalised
Don't know why we demonise and penalise, effectively illegalize genotypes
What happened to being nice? To each and every being we see alive
Treat them right, that's why me I keep on trying to lead a vegan life though cheese is nice
We eat the seasons, spices, denying the beast beneath has rights
'Cause keeping meat inside us is a sign that here lies a survivor, no need to read the rites
We succeeded quite well enough, it's tough enough to put the greed aside
Even I let ego stride in and feed my pride but if we can rise above conceit and fight
For love, then we can climb the peaks, till finally goodbye
From our teeth and eyes to heartbeats and minds you've seen us lead a life of peace and kindness
Get off your seat and

Rise until the sun's in your eyes
Rise until the sun's in your eyes
Rise until the sun's in your eyes
Rise until the sun's in your eyes
