feather

  sözleri;
  
  light as a feather
  when i'm floatin through
  readin through the daily news
  measuring the hurt within the golden rule,
  centimetres of ether i'm heatin the speaker
  motivational teacher with words that burn people
  seeing the headlines lined with discord
  it's either genocide, all the planet in uproar
  never good but rules of paradise are never nice
  the best laid plan of mice and men are never right
  i'm just a vagabond with flowers for algernon
  the average joe who knows what the fuck is goin on
  it's the hope of my thoughts that i travelled upon
  fly like an arrow of god until i'm gone
  
  so i'm driftin away like a feather in air
  lettin my words take me away from the hurt and despair
  so i'm keepin it vertical forever elevator
  ridin the escalator to the somethin that is greater
  so i'm driftin away like a feather in air
  lettin my soul take me away from the hurt and despair
  so i'm keepin it vertical forever elevator
  ridin the escalator to the somethin that is greater
  
  taking chances
  word tap dancing with wolves
  in an ice arena out there, deep in the woods of arizona
  the sun be high, life's ironic
  aint tryin to be talib when i write
  surreal life i paint it vivid habitat crazy insane
  watch the propaganda 6 o'clock news that are saying
  cultures clash for black folk and white trash
  they revel in the cyberspace that might crash
  dash to millineum a million miles of runnin
  at the speed of now back don't return gunnin
  rambo style gunho child gunnin
  ammo blao two times loud stunnin
  stunnin when i hit ya lift you off the earth like
  ayo take you right back to birth
  and niggaz wonder why they might wonder why
  this shit might happen but it does, they go
  
  driftin away like a feather in air
  lettin my words take me away from the hurt and despair
  so i'm keepin it vertical forever elevator
  ridin the escalator to the somethin that is greater
  so i'm driftin away like a feather in air
  lettin my soul take me away from the hurt and despair
  so i'm keepin it vertical forever elevator
  ridin the escalator to the somethin that is greater
  
  treat you better than me
  because that's the heavenly key
  to unlock the inner strength
  where my essence will be
  it's the knowledge of self
  understanding of the things around me
  that becomes the wisdom that i need
  living this life to the best of my ability
  channelling energy to my thoughts into your symmetry
  remember me because my clothes remain gold
  i got the gift of gab like them pimps in kangols
  it never ends i keep it rulin like a cypher
  the first caveman bringin fire
  innovating and higher to blast mistakes i raise the stakes
  it's double or nothing in this vaccuum-less space
  i will survive,divine the time to cry fuck a hold or hide i'm alive with pride
  and i drove the chevy to the levy
  but the levy was dry singin "this will be the day that i die"
