paroles de chanson The Sun - Mr. Lif

Where did you come from?
High in the sky, you're the sun
I've been waiting for someone like you
Where did you come from?

I came from the wind, came from the seas/
Came from kings, came from queens/
Provided means to express what's seen/
I'm the hope that will gleam/
When things seem useless/
Futile, fruitless/
I'm hoping you can use this, the truth can be ruthless/
You're launching your attack, then you need some theme music/
Expressing your emotions in sync with the oceanic/
Tide -- believe but gonna grind, don't panic/
I could be frantic or maybe mellow and soothing/
No matter what tempo, with form I'm still moving/
I move Bob Marley and I moved Etta James/
Then they claim when the fire breaks out, I'm to blame/
Same people who raised hell in their youth/
Now they got all types of advice to tell you/
Do what you feel if your actions are real/
Then you shall find glory when the truth is revealed/
Just follow your call and when your visions are done/
Then wander ...

Chorus:
Where did you come from?
High in the sky, you're the sun
I've been waiting for someone like you
Where did you come from?

Where did I come from? Well it starts with the drum/
Enemies run once you hear my rhythm, you're done/
You shouldn't have come/
It shouldn't have spun us into bondage/
Forty acres and a mule, another broken promise/
We're working in the fields where you should pay us as farmers/
Make a compromise, well that's the way you Uncle Tom us/
Divide and conquer, on the road we grow stronger/
Every situation you create will make us thoughtful/
Freedom's what we long for/
Our pain and our soul/
All captured by a reel as our story is told/
So our future generations can express and unfold/
In modern societies as we're nearing our goals/
Emcees will be the vessel, as long as they don't aim/
The minds of our youth toward material gains/
If this starts to happen then you'll turn towards the captain/
That's where you'll find me checking in ready for action/
Solar generated, cultivated by the sun/
Just follow your call and when your missions are done/
Then wander ...

Where did you come from?
High in the sky, you're the sun
I've been waiting for someone like you
Where did you come from?

Where did I come from? Sit back and just wonder/
Earth is my element -- lightning, thunder/
Grey skies signify the pain I been through/
You can see it in my eyes unleashed at every venue/
Messages I send you can cut like Tenchu/
Until you recognize your potential I won't let you/
Wander aimless, nameless, carrying the stainless/
Steel concealed, fucking with crime to gain famous/
Low -- wanna race around the world, let's go/
No luggage though -- that anger that you carry let go/
I ran far, way past the prices in Bien Mur/
Through to the Mugabe where eternal sands are/
Gazed at the horizon and the future looked enticing/
So my only choice, lay out my path and keep grinding/
Wiling -- saying fuck the critics, never compromising/
I'll push your eyes in if you're sleeping while I'm verbalizing/
Yes I do this out of love and for the fun/
Just follow your call and when your missions are done/
Then wander...
