作曲 : Nujabes
Light as a feather when I'm floating through
Reading through the daily news
Measuring the hurt within the golden rule
Centimeters of ether I'm heatin' the speaker
Motivational teacher with words that burn people
Seeing the headlines lined with discord
It's either genocide or the planet in uproar
Never good, the rules of paradise are never nice
The best laid plans of mice and men are never right
I'm just a vagabond with flowers for Algernon
An average joe who knows what the **** is goin' on
Its the hope of my thoughts that I travel upon
Fly like an arrow of God until I'm gone so
Driftin' away like a feather in air
Lettin' my words take me away from the hurt and despair
So I'm keepin' it vertical forever elevator
Riding the escalator to a somethin' that is greater so I'm
Driftin' away like a feather in air
Lettin' my soul take me away from the hurt and despair
So I'm keepin' it vertical forever elevator
Riding the escalator to a somethin' that is greater
Taking chances word tap dancing with wolves
In an ice arena out there deep in the woods of arizona
The sun be high life's ironic
Ain't tryin' to be talib when I write
Surreal life I paint it vivid
Habitat, crazy, insane
Watchin' propaganda six o' clock news that are sayin
Cultures clash, poor black folk and white trash
They revel in the cyberspace that might crash
Dash to millennium a million miles of runnin
At the speed of now they'll return gunnin
Rambo style gun-ho child gunning
Ammo blaow two times loud stunnin
Stunnin' when it hit ya, lift ya off the earth like
Ayo take you right back to birth
And ****** wonder why
They might wonder why this **** might happen but it does, it goes
Driftin' away like a feather in air
Lettin' my words take me away from the hurt and despair
So I'm keepin' it vertical forever elevator
Riding the escalator to a somethin' that is greater so I'm
Driftin' away like a feather in air
Lettin' my soul take me away from the hurt and despair
So I'm keepin' it vertical forever elevator
Riding the escalator to a somethin' that is greater
Treat you, better than me 'cause that's the heavenly key
To unlock the inner strength where my essence will be
It's the knowledge of self, understanding of the things around me
That becomes the wisdom that I need,
Livin' this life to the best of my ability
Channelin' energy to my thoughts attain symmetry
Remember me, because my proses remain gold
I got the gift of gab like them pimps in Kangols
It never ends, I keep it rollin' like a cipher,
The first cave man bringing fire, innovating it higher
To blast mistakes I raise the stakes
It's double or nothing in this vacuum of space
I will, survive, divine, the time to cry
**** a hold or hide I'm alive with pride
And I drove the chevy to the levy but the levy was dry
Singing "this will be the day that I die
