O'hene Savant - Parable Explained lyrics

Such is the meaning of the first rhyme For those blind to the parable of the swayed minds I spoke of a people who had just lost a king They weren't sure who would rule everything The people were America, we were concerned The king's d**h was Clinton's second and final term I mentioned two princes, one from the shore He would be king as his father before Then was the prince saying he's for the poor Texas makes George W. from the shore Prince for the poor is the Democrat Gore Elections were rigged so the man became sore Thus George W. as his father before Now President yet he comes from the Lord And the fifty tribes were the states keeping score Who couldn't believe Bush didn't cheat Gore He tried to convince us he came from the Lord Tryna finance the church so with them he could score The lands from the East were was with whom we war Started by Bush then his father before But 9-11 they struck rich and the poor Then Bush rose claiming he would restore Peace to the poor and the rich through a war Rich and the poor were upset and were sore So now they think Bush is of the Lord Seems we forgot that the man was a fraud *long silent pause in song* (O'hene in recorded conversation): It's either you not wanna accept it or you gonna accept it, but those who have ears let them hear, you know what I'm saying? Like that's really what it is, it's like not saying literally those who have ears, but you'll have ears but you might not have ears for this metaphor
