(feat. Giant Leap, Neneah Cherry & Ulali)
[Speech:] Yeah? Yo we was talkin earlier and I was I was tellin you, I was talkin 'bout life And I.. I feel like life is really just like braided hair Cause it's, it's got like twists Y'know, you know about braidin? Heh Like twists you know, three strands twist together Ultimately you get to where you gonna get to, y'know [Verse 1:] From the same dirt, from the hills of my ancestors The naked rows and the fields where the pain festered I wonder where the hole came from In the deeps of my heart, make me yearn for the drum It's the same place where the cross is burned The same place where the loss was earned It's the place where the floss was yearned Gold teeth and bling ice on the rings baby sure [Chorus: Neneh Cherry + Speech] Yo we all got things that hangin about Things that make us cool, things that make us whack Things that make us mad Things we wish we never had... done But they're just the things that make us real Not the maps to guide where we go from here The road twists and braids like hair Until we all get there [Verse 2:] I like that I don't know some mysteries Ancient things and beginnings Excited 'bout the day when I don't have to hear all the theories My scalp needs some grease In the same place where the cross is burned The same place where the loss was earned The only way we all can learn Is if we have these brais with the twists and turns [Chorus] [Verse 3: Neneh Cherry] Walkin in the race of life, lookin for my own pace Not always wantin to, but I have to Sometimes feelin like I've bitten off much more than I can chew But the wind goes though my hair And lifts me up with ease, not a crease Hair full of grease, no weave embracin me It's you I see I am you and you are me I see, yeah [African chanting interlude] I am you and you are me I see, yeah [Speech: repeat to fade] We might survive as brothers yeah or perish here as fools Go place your bets; but don't bet too soon Yeah you might find me in another, feels like someone you once knew You know that face, yeah we all do |

[Speech:]
Words are flying out Like endless rain into a paper cup They slither while they pass They slip away, across the universe Pools of sorrow, waves of joy Are driftin thorough my open mind Possessing and caressing me [Chorus:] Jai Guru-oooh, Deva, Ohmmmmmm Nothing's gonna change my world [x4] [Speech:] Images of broken light Which dance before me like a million eyes They call me on and on Across the universe Thoughts meander like a restless wind Inside a letter box They tumble blindly as they make their way Across the universe [Chorus] [Speech:] Sounds of laughter, shades of life Are ringing through my open ears Exciting and inviting me In-vi-ting Limitless undying love Which shines around me like a million suns It calls me on and on Across the universe [Chorus] |
