[Verse 1] Moved to Memphis at the age of nine At the doorway to this house of lies They say this black land needs me Me and my father divine Like ruling by remote control I feel I'm responsible And I'm taking it easy Taking things nicely and slow You've gone and made yourself at home With your heart of stone You're just a mindless little clone who won't And I'll still be here after you're gone [Chorus] And I know that All I have is all that I can to give at one time They tell me As long as I carry my heart there's no gravity [Verse 2] Fetch me water from the gleaming Nile I feel like a newborn child Your presence it pleases Why don't you stick around for a while You see the sun is my star my guide It's bashing me out of light See I'm a full grown beam now Get out of my way let me die You're just five centuries of night It's time to pay the price You see the sun about to rise and fly And I'll still be here after you're gone [Chorus] And I know that All I have is all that I can to give at one time They tell me As long as I carry my heart there's no gravity [Verse 3] About four thousand years ago My grandfather fills this thrown But because of your worries Your memory it serves you alone You think you stand next to his thrown But I'm sorry but you don't You're just a greedy little clone And you want my thrown [Outro]
