Setting Sun (Part 2) (Blue Light Mix)

Lyrics

Intro: [?] Africans gather around to see their king dressed as a clown, why he there so? To show he still get power as he lays he's life down So throughout the story never get children see their father grow up , cos the father is not around to give wisdom to the son; and that's basically everything been going on for so long that we don't know anything different. Its like children , you know , brought over here from African slave ships ... [Asheru] Yo , this is the story of the setting sun Getting sent to pass wisdom onto the son (X3) [Chorus] Yo this is the story of the setting sun My only son saw me die he screaming far and wide I took a look at the look in his eye He was shook , but the soldier refused to cry He was thirteen and green, seen the whole scene Too young to understand to old to intervene So I'm lying here ,dying, trying his year Telling him he has to act like he just don't care (yeah) Retaliate when hate is in the air And demonstrate the might of his holy warfare , see we in a world where nobody really cares and [?] caviate the carriers that everything is fair He couldn't hear but I think it was clear Because he watched me with a look of no doubt and no fear When the years pass assemble the masses Take off your mask and put on your glasses So you can see the hand of brutality that that wants to feed you but struck me See I had to dodge but they really couldn't *blank* with me, but they don't that this is much more than me You after my father before me , fought like a mighty moor to ensure liberty Its your culture , so be very very clear that yours is the voice that nobody wants to hear Some unforgettably too petrified to vivify and live a full till they die so Don't be quiet , watch your diet Study everything around you and then apply it If you have an idea try it If you don't wanna B-boy don't buy it 'cos it's a lie See we, the greatest power in the world curled up like a fetus with a defeatist attitude Agreed to mistreat us and they will beat us until they eat us or until they no longer need us Yo this is the story of the setting sun Getting sent to pass wisdom onto the son (X3) [Chorus] Outro: So this is a follow up till like sun up to sun down The same story the same just told from a different perspective And like that split second between When the father is is getting ready to die And the son sees his father die This is all the communication going on Between a dying man and a young child And they don't even have words between each other but it's that Unspoken Heard ,know 'am saying ? That thing that you hear that doesn't even have to be said Know 'am saying? Setting Sun I'm out
