Feather (羽毛) - Nujabes (せば じゅん)

Light as a feather

When i'm floatin through

Readin through the daily news

Measuring the hurt within the golden rule

Centimetres of ether i'm heatin the speaker

Motivational teacher with

Words that burn people

Seeing the headlines lined with discord

It's either genocide all the planet in uproar

Never good but rules of paradise are never nice

The best laid plan of mice and men are never right

I'm just a vagabond with flowers for algernon

The average joe who knows

What the f**k is goin on

It's the hope of my thoughts that i travelled upon

Fly like an arrow of god until i'm gone

So i'm 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

Ridin the escalator to the 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

Ridin the escalator to

The 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

Aint tryin to be talib when i write

Surreal life i paint it vivid habitat crazy insane

Watch the propaganda

6 o'clock news that are saying

Cultures clash for black folk and white trash

They revel in the cyberspace that might crash

Dash to millineum a million miles of runnin

At the speed of now back don't return gunnin

Rambo style gunho child gunnin

Ammo blao two times loud stunnin

Stunnin when i hit ya lift you off the earth like

Ayo take you right back to birth

And niggaz wonder why they might wonder why

This sh*t might happen but it does they go

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

Ridin the escalator to the 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

Ridin the escalator to the somethin that is greater

Treat you better than me

Because 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

Living this life to the best of my ability

Channelling energy to

My thoughts into your symmetry

Remember me because my clothes remain gold

I got the gift of gab like them pimps in kangols

It never ends i keep it rulin like a cypher

The first caveman bringin fire

Innovating and higher to

Blast mistakes i raise the stakes

It's double or nothing in this vaccuum-less space

I will survive divine the time to

Cry f**k a hold or hide i'm alive with pride

And i drove the chevy to the levy

But the levy was dry singin

＂this will be the day that i die＂
