Lyrics Shahmen - The Crow Pt. I

[Intro]
Maybe we should uh...
What should we do?
The eagle never lost so much time as when he submitted to learn from the crow

[Verse 1: BLESS]
Day is long
But the night is weak
Found myself all alone in the zone while I write to beats
And let the black ink bleed against the whitest sheets
And let the story be told through the eyes of me

Too tired to sleep
I set fire to the liar in me
Crow on a wire couldn't find him a tree
Only found was a pile of weed
Just smiled and decided to eat
Now I always keep a pile with me
Still a child in the wild with beasts
Who made a style from the Nile of grief
Freestyles through the miles of me
Spin a spiral that be dialed to me
Are you smiling
Are you crying to sleep?
Well me, I'm just trying to breathe
In a world where the foulest lead
Keep stuffing in the mouth of greed
We cook old like it's alchemy

[Verse 2: BLESS]
Remain strong
'till the day that the faith is gone
That's the day I'ma face it all
I maybe wrong, but today I'm just pacing on
I'm gonna make me a name in a song
Son of god
But the devil's just the same 'n all
'cept the difference in the ways we fought
Read the book and then I made the call
I ain't really have to think at all
Thoughts sank and I blazed it off
Now I wait across
The river, knee-high, ready to fall
But my brother's there to push me along
I had a dream I never met him at all
Woke up staring at the mirror on the wall
So clear what I saw
It wasn't a mirror, it was me all along
I shed a tear for the fear that was gone
Instead I'm here and now you're hearing a song
