caleb hampton - cape town lyrics
[verse]
blood on my fingers, exiting robben island
walking on a path that was paved from picking fibers
corroded rags, shackled necks, you speak of iced diamonds?
i’m speaking red like the water that keeps me afloat
electrocardiogram cipher
accept those—
“pardon my sins” typa
lines i had writ, uh
till i’m convinced that a part of my hand’s righteous
as i rinse in this water that washes the hands of pilate, yeah
smoke invaded lungs advise me to stay away from the kitchen
fvck what santa bringing if it ain’t momma her wishes
a mile ahead about 2600 people done tried to walk this path
and that’s the distance
the enemies trek
these chords reverberate for eons
a legacy breath
on the articular grandpa and serenity met
above they heads like dodos
so believe i’m living best when i pretend to be dead
let flowers flood the trails where the cherokee led
been looking into it, intuitive, innocent
in a bit, you’ll speak of my name as the genesis of a generation that erected from adams and benjamins
miseducation to keep me out of my element
utilize my ‘know’ as betterment
a cushion for my back when time’s unsettling
cultivated by charity at home
cheers to the distinguished madams and gentlemen
that raised me
rephrase: “that made me”
shouts to aunt katie
grandma, she 80
permanent tales fill the cot
transcendent through the firmament, uh
guess that’s the reason i’m a god
this birmingham jail haunted by words of revolution
held stable a fidgety clan, words of elocution
resolute.. to the point of persecution
that resonates with my page and
freed a man to the freedom land, uh
