Maestro Pianoman - Voyage lyrics

[Produced by Maestro Pianoman] Gather round, gather round I got a story to tell Goes a little something like this Keep your ears open [Verse 1: Maestro Pianoman] A black man came and told me he was travelling We looked alike so I asked him 'yo where you going to?' He said that God's the athlete and I'm the javelin So where he throws me is the first place I'm hoping to land in He said 'you ever heard of paradise?' Standing. He said 'sit down don't be a parasite' I said 'I might just parachute myself away from here' He said 'stop clowning you're about to me a man, aight? You think that all this growing happens overnight, you do But life's a game of decisions and now you HAVE to choose You hear your family, you're the one they're talking bout You said you would save them but now you feel like walking out? You must love breaking promises You must not want Nathalie to be a happy woman . . .' I snapped at him and said 'you're really raising tension!' Then that's when I realised the black man was my reflection . . [Chorus] I don't trip. I don't like whenever I'm told to take a hike I don't want to run. I might just go provoke a fight We all think we know what we don't. We try see to far into the future This is a real young man voyage [Verse 2: Mr Mackie] Seconds pa** as second chance Shakes her waist and flaps and asks You gon pa** this up again? In the past I could pretend New beginnings spell ‘The End' like e n d I snap and take my pick as I glance – TMZ take my pic On moments gone with second chance It ain't all black and white, though she flaunts her checkered pants Interest only builds by the price of her advance But I'm far away from lust oblivious towards her plans Spinning and spiralling from the source, tryna handle liquid swords, and I been sworn by my family that I would gain awards Warned before the war Broken walls had worn Torn between the outcomes and predictions from before Confidence must station to fade these frustrations To cradle from the fear of potential trust breaking Inspire the energy to please reawaken Cause I ain't got no shell to hide into like crustaceans [Chorus](x2)
