I Am

Preamble by Bonolo Mphahlele CHORUS I am who I am and if only you knew me I do what I can to tell my story truly I stand as a man and I show it fully I feel how I feel, surely it's music VERSE 1 I scripted the verses Trying to find my peace of heaven Now this piece I'm rapping shows ain't empty handed God gave me a gift I accepted Every single person that lives on this planet breathes for a purpose I'm enjoy the serenity of the night Yet it's definitely the time you have to be ready for a fight When you cry it hurts I moved to a new area just to try the earth Safety is the primary search But you can't avoid the crime in Glen I hope it's 90 miles a track Whoever drives the hearse That's when I go out an say by to earth You need not only your feet to climb but hands And upward corporate mobility got my mind distressed It's secondary, just a means to the rightful quest Welcome to my world, I'm redefining my path And as time lapse Progress starts with minding mind first CHORUS! VERSE 2! Excuse my lyrics Should I blame the schooling system I attended, I shouldn't and I didn't It's just a character that I truly reveal in this musical healing Bump the tune and feel the groove is rhythmic I'm just doing the scripting til my eulogy is written All we dream of as boobooboos and children Is to become what the tutors believe in I just never thought destiny intended without a clue I would be this I'm super and gifted And this thereto is what like a glue I'm sticking While they package it in nudity visions The earth is still moving and spinning But life is an illusive film excluding the screening For every footprint isn't premeditated When you born they cry, your death is celebrated What it indicated is the life he lived dedicated We barely made it We still segregated My day is as good as the length it's taken CHORUS! VERSE 3! Excuse me now if I'm sounding accountant They took your land, cows in the thousands And now all they offer us is a housing allowance Yet we rather have tea and keep clowning around them I had to double check by counting the counted The government is becoming a totalitarianism state I'm shocked at how colder relationships became I see the signs and signals Of the second coming of the whiter Jesus Seeing now blacks are foreigners and whites are legal We still have to deal with tribal leaders In the midst of confusion in schisms I remain in unity with self and it's core truest vision Like Confucianism school of thought The view is teaching the world about the way of life That is not astray aside If he fails just try again and fight You will make right If you in constant pursuit Fearless of the burning forest and bush Just be honest and push CHORUS!
