henry bowers - eternal life lyrics

[verse 1: henry bowers]
alone in this world with a pad and a pen
they damaged my friends so it had to begin
shattered and scattered – don’t matter to them
deceivingly leaving me mad in the end
i plan my revenge and i sharpen my weapons
my lungs and tongue will be ready in seconds
you know what the thing is – it’s henry and mingus
we’re rhyming for life and we hope it’ll bring us
rings on all of our four middle fingers
raised in praise of formidable thinkers
avoiding the reaper and fat lady singers
by speaking the words that need to be heard
so i’m letting my thoughts fly like a bird
only got so much time on this earth
if we’re spending it splendidly
then in the end we’ll see
eternal life in the form of a memory

[verse 2: mingus x-24th]
vocals stresses urban lessons
spoken through proper wording
often blending words with paintings
stroking my pen through basic movement
the ink’s the agent used to cruise with
traveling ravishing melodies – right where the groove’s built
my view scripts the blueprint for you to choose quick
the truth or the fools pick – it’s for you to choose since
the will inherited – embedded inside us veterans
never that hesitant – lyricism is my prime element

[chorus: henry bowers]
we get no piece of the pie but we get eternal life
if we keep speaking our minds
we get no piece of the pie but we get eternal life
if we keep speaking our minds
we get no piece of the pie but we get eternal life
if we keep speaking our minds
we get no piece of the pie but we get eternal life
if we keep speaking our minds

[verse 3: mingus x-24th]
i’m every mc – it’s all in me for all eternity
verbally i emanc-p-te through schemes and rhyme forms
so to whomever’s minds scorned
hold tight hence the reason why i keep the lines strong
provocations set for motivating
with thoughts “black” – deeply “rooted” so my early statement
quoted and noted but distorted
by industry politics stuck on power trips possibly
with no true understanding of what art this is

[verse 4: henry bowers]
today is the dawning of days to come
what will they remember our faces from?
what mark’ll we leave when our race is run?
will it remain or fade away? that is why day by day
i’m making sure that when you say my name
it’ll spark up the dark parts of hearts across the globe
won’t matter if you are young or older
giving you something to ponder over
leaving it open for folks
to swallow it whole or disagree – pleasure or misery
wether you’re praising or dissing me
i’m writing my name into history
we turn on lights and in return we get eternal life
