Saul Williams - Look To The Sun lyrics

The labels that I claimed as me were no more than a skin I wrapped around my consciousness as if it had an end The calendar that gave the date was no more than a sign I walked behind to find myself in present state of mind The thirteen moons divide themselves; cycles of twenty eight The farmers write their almanacs, the moon is never late But how we count the days and hours place walls, confine the mind We live in doubt and debt, for there is never enough time The minute or the moment, how you think is your opponent If you're listening right now, close your eyes and count to one And on the morning I was born I faced the sun and shouted My mama held me in her arms, she sang while my heart pounded I look to the sun I look to the sun I look to the sun But I follow the moon I follow the moon It was a rainy rainy day I stuck up my own daddy I saw the rain fall from his eyes as though the thugs had grabbed me I look to the sun I look to the sun I look to the sun But I follow the moon I follow the moon Follow me into the wavy, wavy water Follow me into the wavy, wavy water Follow me into the wavy, wavy water Follow me into the wavy, wavy water The miles, they pa**ed over her face like moods of fear and doubt, and The sheer vibration of her world gave waves and waves and mountains I look to the sun I look to the sun I look to the sun But I follow the moon I follow the moon Follow me into the wavy, wavy water Follow me into the wavy, wavy water Follow me into the wavy, wavy water Follow me into the wavy, wavy water And when the waterway stood to the mountains Dogs and people fled the town I could hear that lady shouting Over every screaming sound And the one who ran beside me Grabbed my hand and started back And the people turned and followed And the dogs just stopped and sat She said: Follow me into the wavy, wavy water Follow me into the wavy, wavy water Follow me into the wavy, wavy water Follow me into the wavy, wavy water Follow me into the wavy, wavy water Follow me into the wavy, wavy water Follow me into the wavy, wavy water Follow me into the wavy, wavy water
