THE SUN TAKE A BOW FOR A DAY WELL LIT
|
NEXT ACT IS NIGHT WITH AN AUDIENCE OF BROTHERS AND SISTERS
|
HAVIN' A CELEBRATION OF SORTS
|
MEETING ONE ANOTHER HOPING SOON TO BE LOVERS
|
SISTERS HAVE ALWAYS FACSINATED ME
|
THE MANY SHADES, THE MANY SIZES AND FEATURES
|
SUCH A WIDE VARIETY OF AFRICAN WOMEN
|
SOMETIMES LEAVES ME FRUSTRATED AND SPEECHLESS
|
I TRY NOT TO ADMIRE WHAT I CAN'T OBTAIN OR HAVE
|
THINGS BEYOND MY REACH DON'T EXIST TO SPEECH
|
SEEING HOW I'M A BIT SHORTER THAN THE AVERAGE MAN
|
I PATIENTLY WAIT FOR SOMEONE I CAN REACH
|
MANY SISTERS DON'T UNDERSTAND MY STYLE
|
I LIVE MY LIFE IN AN OUTCAST TRIBE
|
A TRIBE THAT STRIVES TO SEE A BRIGHTER DAY
|
I FORSEE THAT I'LL WALK WITH CLOSED EYES... UNTIL DAWN
|
|
DAWN OF THE DREADS
|
|
REJECTION IS A FEAR OF MINE
|
FOR ONE REASON OR ANOTHER
|
BUT I STILL ASKED FOR A DATE WITH THIS WOMAN SHE SAID NO
|
I SAID OH I FORGOT THERE'S A GAP BETWEEN THE RICHER AND THE POORER PO
|
SLOWLY ALL THE SHADES SIZES AND FEATURES BECAME LESS DIFFERENT
|
AND MORE THE SAME
|
EXCEPT A CERTAIN FEMAIL WITH ALL NEW FEATURES
|
BUT I KNEW NOT HER NAME
|
BY THIS TIME THE SUN WAS PREPARING
|
FOR ANOTHER APPEARANCE THE SKY WAS PURE RED
|
THE NIGHT GRABBED THE MOON AND SOON THE DARKNESS WAS ALMOST DEAD
|
THE SKY NOW IS ORANGE AND THE NIGHT HAS LEFT THE STAGE
|
THE CURTAINS OPEN WIDE AND THE BRIGHT SUN YAWNS
|
TO SIGNIFY A GLORIOUS BRIGHT NEW DAY
|
THE GLORIOUS DAY THAT I WOULD MEET, DAWN
|
THE NATURAL DREAD ALSO OF THE OUTCAST TRIBE
|
KNOWLEDGEABLE ENOUGH TO UNDERSTAND MY STYLE AND WE KISS
|
IN THE NAME OF REJECTION, THE SKY LOOKS AT US AND WARMLY SMILES
|
|
DAWN OF THE DREADS
|
THE DREADS SYMBOLIZE THE NATURAL GROWTH OF NOT JUST THE HAIR
|
BUT ALSO OF THE MIND AND ALSO THE BOND THAT KEEPS US IN LOVE
|
THE STRUGGLE ENHANCES THAT BOND THROUHOUT TIME WHEN I SEE HER
|
I SEE LIFE THE VAST SCOPE OF LIFE IN HER EYES OF NO WRONG
|
|
FAITH PLAYS A BIG ASS PART
|
I'M STILL KINDA YOUNG BUT I FEEL
|
I COULD REALLY RUN WITH DAWN
|
DAWN OF THE DREADS
