Oddisee - Roots of the sun lyrics

First Verse : Wakin' up in the evening feelin' myself blessed No panic attack when I shoulda feel stressed The sun comes down no matter how you wanna rest I work overnight through the shadows of my quest Overpa**ing all the doubts I do it for record Black ink dryin' on my board nothing on my chest R.A.P. lots of rythms with a few poetry I wash my bad thoughts but never at the laundry Sometimes it's tough sometimes it's not so easy These criminal parents make me feel f**in' dizzy I still don't know what to do with so much waifs in this country We need some real guts for the leaders in a democracy It's about to crash it's about to blow out Your life ain't a video game when you fall out The revolution's on track stakes high for the sellout Odds up heads down when you spend the night out Chorus (Acey Ten & Wonderboy) : Look up in the sky, it's a bird, it's a plane Look up in the sky, it's a bird, it's a plane It's the roots of sun gettin' tired by the rain It's the roots of sun gettin' tired by the rain Run around the world with no fear in your brain Run around the world with no fear in your brain Free your mind even when your fate is a chain Free your mind even when your fate is a chain Second Verse : Walkin' through my city with one hand in my pocket Everythin' but greedy I got a hole on my wallet The money so green the money so evil Cream is the motto when stealin' is legal More profits more taxes for the people While the rich b**hes makin' deals under the table Hidden by the media, protected by the lawyers Disappear in the wild like the zodiac k**er (k** ! k** !) Untouchable elected elevated as leaders Got the same scruples than a childish drug dealer How the f** can we live in a land like this ? Ruled by pricks who never give a f** about peace Sarkozy, Le Pen, Cahuzac, Cambadelis I might be actually in trouble only for one diss Gotta pay like the double a shot fired on ya b**h Must have failed my whole life with no rolex at my wrist Chorus (Acey Ten & Wonderboy) : Look up in the sky, it's a bird, it's a plane Look up in the sky, it's a bird, it's a plane It's the roots of sun gettin' tired by the rain It's the roots of sun gettin' tired by the rain Run around the world with no fear in your brain Run around the world with no fear in your brain Free your mind even when your fate is a chain Free your mind even when your fate is a chain Third Verse : Watchin' out the TV when I got boring Lookin' for some movie but never stops exploring Switchin' up the channels over and over With a background sound interrupted by snoring How to raise a child with so much bullsh**s at the screen As the power of learning runs slower than the stream Tell me whatchu watch and I'mma tell ya who you are The young blood still believe they have a chance to be a star With their mind stupefied by reality shows The future gets dark while the virtuality grows But don't get pissed off by my mentality, bruh ! These circus freaks got a lack of personality though Manipulated by heartless, eager producers Baited with the money by crazy motherf**ers This ain't gettin' better, prepare for the worst Start to open up your mind as I finish off my verse Chorus (Acey Ten & Wonderboy) : Look up in the sky, it's a bird, it's a plane Look up in the sky, it's a bird, it's a plane It's the roots of sun gettin' tired by the rain It's the roots of sun gettin' tired by the rain Run around the world with no fear in your brain Run around the world with no fear in your brain Free your mind even when your fate is a chain Free your mind even when your fate is a chain
