Mr. Lif - The Sun lyrics

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, f**ing 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 f** 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...
