Songtexte The Crow, Pt. 1 (Demo) - Shahmen

Maybe we should uh...
What should we do?
The eagle never lost so much time as
When he submitted to learn from the crow
Day is long
But the night is weak
Found myself all alone in the zone while I write to beats
And let the black ink bleed against the whitest sheets
And let the story be told through the eyes of me
Too tired to sleep
I set fire to the liar in me
Crow on a wire couldn't find him a tree
Only found was a pile of weed
Just smiled and decided to eat
Now I always keep a pile with me
Still a child in the wild with beasts
Who made a style from the Nile of grief
Freestyles through the miles of me
Spin a spiral that be dialed to me
Are you smiling
Are you crying to sleep?
Well me, I'm just trying to breathe
In a world where the foulest lead
Keep stuffing in the mouth of greed
We cook old like it's alchemy
Remain strong
'Till the day that the faith is gone
That's the day I'ma face it all
I maybe wrong, but today I'm just pacing on
I'm gonna make me a name in a song
Son of god
But the devil's just the same 'n all
'Cept the difference in the ways we fought
Read the book and then I made the call
I ain't really have to think at all
Thoughts sank and I blazed it off
Now I wait across
The river, knee-high, ready to fall
But my brother's there to push me along
I had a dream I never met him at all
Woke up staring at the mirror on the wall
So clear what I saw
It wasn't a mirror, it was me all along
I shed a tear for the fear that was gone
Instead I'm here and now you're hearing a song
