First In Flight feat. Gil Scott-Heron

歌詞

(feat. Gil Scott-Heron) [CHORUS:] First in flight [repeated 4X] [Gil Scott-Heron:] (Cause all we got is rhythm and timin' We go beyond the edge of the sky) [Gift of Gab] FREE! Like a bird out in the wind in the night Like a 747 to LA up in flight FREE! Like a garden flourishing in the wind Like a student bout to do it when he's graduatin FREE! From any of the energy perception Can never be defined create the definition within FREE! Just lovin life itself and never pretend to be Anything other than the man I was meant to be Travel through time and get a glimpse of the centuries To come a better day is promised remember FREE! Like my nephew in a few months about to be out the penitentiary Meditation [repeated 9X] [Chorus] [Gift of Gab] UH! I never hesitate about a reluctant mind Just put the peddle to the metal see what ya find You back there slouchin over won't you pick up your spine? Let's make it really really happen live up this time Cause you can choose to say "Good morning God" or "Good God, morning" With black clouds storming I walk without umbrellas into these woods Don't need em cause the mighty trees above will shelter me good I'm eating berries from the bushes of the heavenly good From the stakes the power came to us whenever we stood Reverberatin out we're reachin each and every hood Whenever we could the spiritual anatomy fool But never take the credit for it because that'd be rude It's just the way in life we searchin for that had to be new You gotta work it though cause everyday ain't Saturday fool Evolve into a better life and be happy with you and me [Chorus] [Gil Scott-Heron] The first to fly The first to strive The first to fight to stay alive The first to win The first to strike The first to live The first in flight [Gift of Gab] RISE! Like the sun up at the crack of the dawn Like a wakin giant in the morning stretchin and yawnin RISE! Like an infant being held in the light Like the smoke from an incense when it's ignited RISE! If you're sleepin won't you open your eyes again The greatest high be that natural high within No need to force the progression just ride the wind You'll know the answer to the where and why and when If you keep workin for your search you will find the end Though at the end you find it only begins again See at the end you'll see it only begins again And everything you learn you're only rememberin Cause you're [Chorus (repeat 4X)] [Gift of Gab: repeat 2X] It's me Let your mind and your soul be free Work to shine meet your goal believe Spread that kind of L-O-V-E Take some time off the lonely [Gil Scott-Heron: repeat to end] Cause all we got is rhythm and timin' We go beyond the edge of the sky
