audible mainframe - nobody's nomad lyrics
[verse 1]
i wrote my first rhyme
when i was ten years old
and since then i made sure
that the story was told
about the boy from the west
with the eastern soul
the people he befriended
and the paths they chose
i hop inside a booth
and dictate what i’m seeing
i don’t define words
i try to give em meaning
can’t tell you why i do it
but i know that it’s for a reason
so i’ll never ever ever ever
stop saying what i believe in
and i don’t even feel
like going to school
i stay rapping
cause that’s what i was born to do
i remember the first show
i rocked in my life
and now it’s like people know me
just from rocking the mic
that’s why my ma had
this cape verdean boy
for me to make music
and for you to enjoy
create sounds you ain’t
ever heard before
and keep your feet moving
like you saw a rat on the floor
dig it
[hook, ft. toussaint]
if i listened to what people would say
where would i be today?
oh, if i listened to what people would say
where would i be today?
if i listened to what people would say
where would i be today?
oh, if i listened to what people would say
hey
[verse 2]
there once lived a boy
who was afraid to fly
he always knew that he could do it
but he failed to try
foolishly he would listen
to what people would say
till the day he spread his wings
and finally went on his way
they said i was a fool from the start
labeled a hooligan
catholic education
never see me in at school again
they grabbed me by the collar
and dragged me to believe
but i’m n0body’s nomad
i go where i please
yo i am what i am
i do what i want
these people run around
in circles till they
fall down and flop
i’m supposed to be impressed
by your cookie cutter fashion?
you magazine mimic-
pseudo hipster -ss b-st-rd
i want to wake up
from this h-lla vicious dream
all these pretty plastic people
on my television screen
you’ll soon learn
plastic ain’t as pretty as it seems
when the sun starts burning
and you’re melting from the heat
dig it
[hook, ft. toussaint]
if i listened to what people would say
where would i be today?
oh, if i listened to what people would say
where would i be today?
if i listened to what people would say
where would i be today?
oh, if i listened to what people would say
hey
[bridge, ft. toussaint]
i remember the first day
the rhythm took over
my whole body began to tremble
standing in front of the crowd
i sang out loud
in was, rewarded with ecstacy
my addiction became my greatest gift
determined to use it
make the paradigm shift
wow, ooh!
if i listened to what people would say
where would i be today?
oh, if i listened to what people would say
where would i be today?
if i listened to what people would say
where would i be today?
hey, hey
ohhh
sing
melody takes a hold of me
music’s really got a hold of me
at night i can’t sleep
i say the music’s got a hold of me
music’s got a hold of me
melody got a hold of me
music’s really got a hold of me
if i listened to what people would say
where would i be today?
oh, if i listened to what people would say
where would i be today?
if i listened to what people would say
where would i be today?
where would i be today
want to know
just where would i be today
where would i be today
want to know
just where would i be today
