The Sun

[Intro] 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? [First Verse] 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 [Hook] 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? [Second Verse] 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 [Hook] 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? [Third Verse] 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?
