Nomak - I Wonder lyrics

[Verse 1: Floetic Jay] They say that pain is of the essence, they say to count your blessings He's stacking 'em one by one, avoiding adolescence Feel that intimidating presence? But underneath the (w)rapper There's a shy poet who doesn't know how to fathom Where to look for a father figure, or something bigger A role model instead he sees old bottles filled with liquor And his mum's sorrow longs for tomorrow but the day drags like a heavy weight on his back He wonders with thoughts of thunder, when will he wake from the slumber? When it gets to the next chapter, when he flees from hunger He tries to work out formulas why the rich is ignoring us He has the words of Shakespeare but can't afford thesauruses He lets his anger out for the best means He doesn't mean to hurt friends but he can't win He played the joker to try and be the best king He only has one heart that he's chasing [Hook: Floetic Jay] I do, wonder - When they'll observe the suffering? I do, wonder - When they'll rise from nothing? I do wonder I do... I do... [Verse 2: Floetic Jay] It's his own but it's hidden in an unknown place Slept on his spirit, longing for the morning grace Had a brainstorm, that lasted for seven days Wonders when justice will have it's turn to reign He talks to himself because only he understands where he stands At the edge of a cliff, nobody else can catch his rift One whisper would whisk him away to fall to a maybe or if The maybe is what if he made something of his life Instead of causing strife he should have strived towards taking flight Every single night he'd dwell on his doubt which defiantly and violently Slaughtered his mind, the bad times he wish he could rewind, uh Now let's get to the if, if he rewound and turned around and faced his fears would he be here? He would have aced and been amazed at how he made it through the maze He would have grown strong from weak, he would have woke from a daze [Hook: Floetic Jay] I do, wonder - When they'll observe the suffering? I do, wonder - When they'll rise from nothing? I do wonder I do... I do... [Verse 3: Floetic Jay] His intuition told him his tuition wasn't right Tried to seek success learning from the blind His mind in orbit like planets, started to fail he panicked He's just a youngen trying to seek sanity if insanity Was common there wouldn't be normal humanity Let that rest on your brain like a parasite don't ask questions Are you a Pharisee? Who likes to fight With their words when they can't observe There's a boy suffering, by living a curse He took a wrong turn down revenue avenue It turned out for good, cause opportunity's grabbing you And you can't break free so you're forced to succeed Now he's standing in greatness rising up to his knees But he's got to stay humble or he'll fumble once again And have to turn back to the pen, which was his only friend He can't pretend he wasn't sent to send the message to the Land And I wonder [Hook: Floetic Jay] I do, wonder - When they'll observe the suffering? I do, wonder - When they'll rise from nothing? I do wonder I do... I do... [Verse 4: Floetic Jay] And now he knows his future's getting clearer, step into a new era He took a swim down the dim and dark narrow river Learnt not to dither from destiny but to deliver His words respectfully to guide people on the right path of life So they can be free in the afterlife, his appetite for life Was bitter sweet like sugared lemon treats, mind decaying like mental leprosy He couldn't see he had a calling to fly from falling and not land on his feet Now like a dove he know's he is truly free, he doesn't wonder if he'll achieve great things And that he'll be number - 1, his funds are purely faith Otherwise he'd still be dwelling in the lonely place and now he doesn't have to wonder Uh... and now he doesn't ever have to wonder... Uh... [Outro: Floetic Jay] I don't have to prove, when I say I will not lose (x3)
