Woke up in the morning in a temple
|
Kinda lucky on my feet for it was central
|
So I walk across the village
|
Saw a group of kids pillage
|
And I thought to myself I might be mental
|
You see
|
Pilgrims in the town
|
All seem to hold a frown
|
Say all they wanna be is diggy down
|
You know Speck thought he'd ask
|
But figured it's just a mask
|
Tthis guy's on something else that's profound
|
|
I'm not the stool or the fool or the leader here to rule
|
Not the lover or the fighter who came here to duel
|
But I thought I looked into, but I walked into
|
So I can understand all the rules, cool?
|
|
Life is like a puzzle not pieced yet
|
Might take a village ever long to see that
|
Don't break your ties with my pal compromise
|
And the kid you wanna be you can be that
|
|
Who's ever watched the world that's my motto
|
Don't ever wanna play the head honcho ?? but huh
|
If you try to push I won't beat around the bush
|
Straight up you're getting dissed on the pronto.
|
|
Life is like a puzzle not pieced yet
|
Might take a village ever long to see that
|
Don't break your ties with my pal compromise
|
And the kid you wanna be you can be that
|
|
If I could, I'd solve the problems of the world that exist
|
If I could always chill, I would without resist
|
If you weren't so literal, brother you might get it
|
Pack my bags, tambourines, and jeans so don't sweat it
|
|
Life is like a puzzle not pieced yet

|
|
As the journey continues I gain current instincts
|
I feel I know what they must be thinking, for instance
|
When they speak in riddles I'm left with the question
|
But won't stop arguments to kill attention
|
They all got a sixth sense to be one another
|
So pilgrims seek refuge undercover
|
Where it's fly like birds to live a lot is absurd
|
Try telling that to this kid named Unver
|
|
Life is like a puzzle not pieced yet

|
Don't break your ties with my pal compromise

And the kid you wanna be you can be that

|
I met him on tour a week on for twenty four
|
He was born in the village, but left in ninety four
|
Now he's still got probs he doesn't know how to solve
|
I said, "Unver, I've been there before"
|
In the light of understanding I forgot it
|
Sometimes the boat shakes when you rock it
|
I told him we are like family, a part of humanity
|
Don't overdo, and don't toss it.

|
|
He dug and moved on with his life
|
'Cause he digs it gets real dark at night
|
Don't want a collar that's blue or a reflection of you
|
Just wants us to get his plight
|
Myself I'd like the years just to take me away
|
It might leave a part of this world in dismay
|
But the village calls the pilgrim ?in Negroes?
|
After all I'm just one needle in the hay
|
Now what I'm speaking in is symbolics
|
But you can call it what you want to call it
|
See all that I do is throw words, and I hope that you caught it
|
Only got one arrow but I aim for two targets
|
|
Life is like a puzzle not pieced yet
