Osciopak - A Long and Difficult Road (feat. Dr Koul) lyrics

[Intro speech: Blind Seer from "Oh Brother Where Art Thou"] First you must travel a long and difficult road, a road fraught with peril. Mm-hmm. You shall see thangs, wonderful to tell I cannot tell you how long this road shall be, but fear not the obstacles in your path, for fate has vouchsafed your reward. Though the road may wind, yea, your hearts grow weary, still shall ye follow the road, even unto your salvation [Verse 1: Dr Koul] This year I lost my cat, my granny And one of my best friends In every nook and cranny I'm stuck Searching for it to make sense I've sat up in darkness, scribbling at my desk Contemplating my attack, resting in my defence It doesn't add up, sometimes the good die young And there's a life in the oppressed For which the privileged long They're unimpressed with the riches Still swallow it up Depressed under the rictus Never shallow enough And I'm just left with the diamonds in the rough And on the the left There's the diamonds that the poor man wants And on the right There's a lie that make the pure man tough And I'm just left with the diamonds in the rough Until my time is up The so-called war on d** Only caused more addicts and thugs The war on terror's no better From Bin Laden to Trump And every rapper who's just wishing For his chance to blow up And now we have to grow up From voting for Bernie Sanders Losing hope with Obama We're closer to burning mansions Just to cope with the drama In Geneva bunch of hypocrites attacking our culture We protest in the streets Where we graffiti with colour We're disobedient, we don't believe What they speak and they mutter They call us idiots and tell us to get back in the gutter There's more secrets in the parliament seats Than kids have from their mother We don't believe in freedom of speech We believe in each other [Chorus: Dr Koul w/ scratches by Dj Ara'Z'Cut] "You understand me?" We know they sell weapons and deal d**h And destruction, with justice as pretense "Wh-what?" We know they sell weapons and deal d**h And destruction, with justice as pretense A false sense of security nonsense A false sense of security nonsense [Verse 2: Paps] My generation faces all the problems Of the world on its shoulders And now we've crossed over Man, it's gotten colder Everybody's focus always seems to be retaliation No grand debating this state of hatred That is our creation So let's put something to rest Some d**hs got us fronting Huffing and puffing our chests Others are just pictures and a chunk full of text I guess a third of the world's lives Don't mean much to the west Politicians scheming as they always have Claiming that they walk straight paths They don they masks And talk they crap, never gonna drop they act And if they get us where they want us It's a long way back But it can be done If the people put down their guns Unsung heroes rising From the cities and the slums The city's looking gritty Since the villainous have funds Still we waiting for the day When the people unite as one, but The path is winding, inclined and intertwining To guide your mind's eye, the signs are still divided In this day and age We're feeling lost in space and time It's like looking at the world Through a lens of psilocybin These visions might decide The road we choose to take But who's to say if we go or choose to stay Stagnating in this current state Or breaking through the obstacles We're in a bad place but, we made it possible [Chorus: Dr Koul] We know they sell weapons and deal d**h And destruction, with justice as pretense We know they sell weapons and deal d**h And destruction, with justice as pretense A false sense of security nonsense [Outro scratches: Dj Ara'Z'Cut]
