from unseen caves of light we sup on the crumbs of life,
my sacrifice was a lung and an eye for my brother to stand at my side
my only demand is time,
a family structure's strand buried under waves and grains of sand
submissive to Allah's ways and plans,
I left no debts unpaid and made my way as a real man
peel away the cannons and steel brandished to reveal a king of the people's planet
weakened by heathen's commandments,
speech is ransomed for a little cream and a ham sandwich
from Rosewood to knowing a truth is overstood,
I'm no good,
easily provoked into throwin up hoods...
