In
(专辑: Pharaoh Height - 2015)
I
was born in a
small village I
was still a
child when we were raided by soldiers Foreign soldiers Torn from my elders, I
was made to speak their language With each new post, my masters changed Along with the
words they made me speak With each change, I
changed too My thoughts, personality, how I
saw right and wrong Words can kill Time and again, the
country was ruled by a
foreign tongue When he was young boy, he lost his native language The
bedrock for any developing child His country, his family, his face, his identity Everything was stolen from him Meet me on the
corner, I
be waiting on you Thousand years of better right into forever Fire on my feathers, far from out of heaven Fight without a
weapon, life without a
lesson Lost, I'm my own boss, pay my own cost Fill my own goals, see my own hopes Tired of all of this, wish I
had a
switch One kiss then you cut me off Knowledge is the
power, college is for cowards Hollering for hours, swallowing the
sour Skin stuck around the
rims, peeking in on a
life so sweet The
other side made it, why don't we? From ancient times, every civilization's ruler has had the
same idea. When people unite under one will, they become stronger than the
sum of their parts and what do rulers use to bring people together? Language. "This world will become one, I
have found the
way. Race, tribal affiliations, national borders even our faces will be irrelevant. The
world that the
boss envisioned will finally become a
reality and it will make mankind whole again Found a
friend in the
words and my words and it works Take away the
pain, take away the
hurt Make a
way to make a
change, make it sane Specially if you plan on staying on this Earth Low to the
lows, high to the
highs Eyes to the
sky, strive to revive, dying to survive Pool full of cries but it's cool, I'm still alive And every breath is every left soul And the
family never kept whole In the
slum, want to quest to be the
best of being less Never let go, the
best road to the
next level And the
scenes where it's mean to do the
right thing Not to be a
good king but the
best devil So it's horns for the
crown, torn from the
ground Roses by the
roots stolen from the
roofs on parade days Look at them rain down I
was brought here a
slave But I
leave here a
pharaoh America is a
country of liberty, a
meeting of immigrants Instead of simply assimilating, its citizens live alongside others So the
major sought a
system that used information Words to control the
subconscious In his eyes, the
greatest symbiotic parasite the
world's ever known isn't microbial it's linguistic Words is what keep civilization, our world, alive If you are what you say you are, the
coolest Won't you just shine down? You are what you say you are, the
coolest Won't you just shine down?
