Footsteps

Submitted by Duke Box on Sat, 2010-08-14 13:57

 Deep in debt n still devoted to nice clothes,

give me ten grand i could spend it with my eyes closed/

n i'd be pimping like a rich kid counting his funds,

n living like a broke bugger scouting for crumbs/

i still pay for this car that cant be trusted to start,

still working a day job n busting my arse/

i'm still building my skills n i got nothing but heart,

still feeling like i need a billion buckets of laughs/

so i'ma keep a belief like receipts in a jar,

n i'ma keep my arse covered like the seats in my car/

n if world don't agree with all the things that i'm doing,

i'd be a friggen politician full of shit like a sewer/

yeah i admit it i'm afraid of the dark,

i'm afraid of turning grey but i was brave at the start/

i don't live in the past jus the moment i'm at,

n if i lived on the street i'd feel at home when i rap/

 

CHORUS

Follow the footsteps of the great, while ya head feels hollow n your heart's misplaced,

swallow your pride n walk this way, we can talk war while we fight for change. x2

 

VERSE 2

Well they say truth be told, i told the truth

but truth doesn't mean shit unless u hold the proof/

in a world full of fear i'm afraid of being free,

thats why i'm hidden on the hill where i'm catered to the beat/

n i made it through the heat the hail n the rain,

failed so many times n prevailed again/ 

i watched this world burn as it turnt to a tip,

n u ask me what it is that i'm tryna do here/

 i imagine the first look that Cook took, 

at the beautiful landscape that once stood/

now don't you tell me that there's heaven on earth,

cuz by the time we find it we'll be down to reserves/

we got a gift to give n a wish to make,

i feel nothing but instinct to follow the great/

hide your tired eyes as i wake the globe,

from a sacred place i call natures own/

if home is where the heart is i live in a chest,

if only we departed when we finished our quest/

we all walk with a rhythmic jig like we're in sync,

every step we make we take before we think/ 

 

 

CHORUS

Follow the footsteps of the great, while ya head feels hollow n your heart's misplaced,

swallow your pride n walk this way, we can talk war while we fight for change. x2
