[Faithless - Muhammad ali - radio edit lyrics]
You will see me as a super
Star and you'll have time to waste
With your minions and tink
I see your face in front of me
Still grainy from that old black and white TV
My whole family silenced
Watching you shape destiny with your 2 hands
Faster than the eye can see
Mesmerizing
You know what skinny lickle
Me started to struggle
10 years old suddenly bold
Cause I resolved to live like
My hero in the ring
Be smart never give an inch, No retreating
An I racked up respect from teachers
Red Necks and creatures who attack in
A pack like insects
Never seen the like not before or
Since, a young prince
An I remain convinced of his invincibility
Athletic agility, virility
Still a free spirit, forever through eternity
Stingin' like a bee mr Muhammed Ali
I want to know who you are!
I want to know who you are!
I want to know who you are!
Your achievements defy belief from the belly
Of the beast Rising like yeast
Yo, My release from low self esteem
Came when I saw you rapping on my TV screen
Float like a butterfly
That describes my walk to
School after fight night
I felt so cool cause I was the greatest too
Love of self born simply out of love for you
And I knew that someday people
Would love me too
None of that hecklin' about my
Black skin got through
I would walk barefoot through hell for you
It's how I felt back then an still do
So will you
Accept these humble words of praise
And my gratitude for those glorious days
And meritorious ways instilled in
The a young mind skill sublime
Yours to mine!
I want to know who you are!
I want to know who you are!
I want to know who you are!
