Mr. Lif - The Sun lyrics

[Mr. Lif - The Sun lyrics]

Where did you come from?
High in the sky, baby, you're the sun
(you're the sun)
I've been waiting for someone like you
(someone like you and you, come on)
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'll 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 wonder

Where did you come from?
High in the sky, baby, you're the sun
(you're the sun)
I've been waiting for someone like you
(someone like you and you, come on)
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 wonder

Where did you come from?
High in the sky, baby, you're the sun
(you're the sun)
I've been waiting for someone like you
(someone like you and you, come on)
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
Fucking 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 Myanmar
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 fuck 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 wonder
Where did you come from?
