last benevolence - tales of the elements lyrics

once upon a time in the land i come from
there lived these greedy kings who had breathed corruption man, it was somethin’, they all seemed to love when
a chance came to take from the poor who had nothin’
the lower cl-ss pain born a dark age
in every village slum formed 4 types of gangs
each one of them idenified by their unique sk!ll
day to day meals would be the reason to k!ll
violence stalked the commoners in the streets
while, their true enemies walked through courtyards of peace
and it really seemed that all hope would cease
but, then a hero appeared from the lands in the east similar to a fairytale or a dream
held down the scene decked top to bottom in green equipped with a bow, and an arrow, shot glory
he founded the elements. this is their story
between the 4 gangs, he formulated a truce
then found a way of peace between each of the groups
a common goal together as the merrimen
against the kings of the land, they were called the 4 elements
i’ll break it down easy
they had djs, b-boys, mcs, and graffiti back then, holding it down for all the needy
they brought peace and happiness, it was all too easy
after some time djs and mcs
influenced the most so the kings made a scheme
to seize control of the two biggest teams
by removing the line between reality and dreams
they sent this dark little fellow with this sand
that could exploit the selfish dreams of any man
with this dust he carried in a chest most
of the mcs and the djs from the west coast
betrayed the elements and became more relevant
abusing graffiti, the darkness here was evident
they took control and multiplied as a whole
melody was even among the queens that they stole
they say the elements live down to this day
underground in society, hidden from evil’s gaze
i’m gonna find if it is or is not
this is the tale of our beloved hip hop
once upon a time in the land i come from
there lived this industry that had breed corruption
similar to shinra, they controlled the functions of the cities and even the lifestyles of the public
at that time, 4 gangs has existed but it didn’t seem that the industry took interest
so, they turned their faces away from the evil
and violence took place everyday amongst the people but soon after that, a hero would come
rockin’ rhythms over drums like an arrow was strung
bringing peace to the streets that he had won
transformed the 4 gangs like the night to the sun
into these factions, the four elements they were named
b-boys, mc’s, graffiti, and djs
life was like a celebration everyday
until the elements fell underground and things changed

[mega ran]
so, if you wonder now …..
why you can’t find the clans nowadays, they were all forced underground
practicing the arts in the darkness
praying for an illuminated heart to spark this
it’s awkward, in a world without heroes
we, the people, now forced to embrace evil
(the) sandman keep the dreamers starry-eyed
promising fame and riches, but we know it’s all a lie
keeping us under the influence of instruments
struggle is infinite, never forget!
but, i heard a rumor of a special two
who would rise up and do what one person could never do
take control and eventually switch the mood up
renew us and return the elements to us
i never knew the details of their elaborate plan
and alas, that was exactly how it began
epic stories astounding whoever reads them
and now you gotta see it to believe them
the tales of the elements
