Story Behind The Song
One of the first songs i wrote about 8 years ago during a module in music degree at university... i came up with the hook line first then the rest about 5 years later... i hope you like it
Song Description
This song is about inspiration. It is about fulfilling your dreams. IThe Hook line is about angels and how they look down on us and make judgements. Seeing us fighting, arguing and and genarally being a bit nasty... so they leave because not all the world is ready for this kind of joy yet... but its not all bad... cos little by little throught striving for good things that we change things; the general atmosphere in socieity and within ourselves... its is a light rap style with some singing in that style that is suppose to represent a thought in the unlying thoughts in my mind...

Lyrics
Lying down here living in reality
Searching hard ? searching for some clarity
Getting me along ? coming on strong
Getting things right which I once got wrong
Wasn?t always this way ? in the old days
Things were all strange and I felt a bit deranged
Like a monkey in a cage or a dog on a chain
Had no choice had to stake my claim
Living in the city ? not that pretty
Its not all glitz, all glamour all fizzy
try to find a way but the streets are too busy
Just far to busy for me
And I see angels ? flying high in the sky
So high they make me dizzy as they see the world go by x 2
Walking down the road feeling the beats of the streets
Gotta be bold for my destiny I greet
20 x years old ? no longer be discreet
Gotta taste right gotta taste sweet
Gotta start moving gotta move my feet
Left to the right the hill is so steep
Being human beings can make you so deep
We Never stop thinking ? awake or asleep
I know my destiny ? it was writing for me
In the bible, Koran and hiroglicphcy
That?s the truth as I see, saw, knew it and told it
To stake my claim as a new city poet
And I see angels ? flying high in the sky
So high they make me dizzy as they see the world go by x 2
They see race face confused faces
People dealing with the business of the day
They see lack of trust / misuse of love
They get offended and fly away
Well its all about the confidence you see
You can?t them if you can?t love me
Cos the me, myself and I trinity
You gotta have a dream before you believe
That a girl is nothing ? nothing to fear
Move her in close - move in and veneer
She?s the master, the mystery ? the means to an end
So sway to rhythm and lean to her bends
If your looking for the real deal not a protraction
I am the real deal not a refraction
How many times do we look and get scared
How many times do we face our fears
When they hear my monologue
They will cry in the synagogue ? worship in the house of god
All traffic will stop ? all jaws will fall
All penny?s will drop
When I reach the summit ? I know I?ve reached the top
And rock like a baby
People can?t touch me ? like I have rabies
It?s the prophecy ? don?t try to copy me
Let them be them ? and I?ll be me
And I see angels ? flying high in the sky
So high they make me dizzy as they see the world go by x 2
They see race face confused faces
People dealing with the business of the day
They see lack of trust / misuse of love
They get offended and fly away
Life time striver - Maximum survivor ?
Invest in me you won?t loose a dollar, rupee of fiver
Like a target to a dart I will tell from the heart
Cos its time to start building like a new Iraq
I?m learned ? get my education
20 x years old ? still I don?t reach my final station
When I go watch me roll like a solider as I get older?
I see angels - flying high in the sky?..
