mc nelson - what's in a name? lyrics

Loading...

i was, i was, i was

i was sitting on the rug with my (?)
as the little kids ask me where my middle name’s from
didn’t make any sense, but i’d say it was french
as i fidget and i twiddle my thumbs

i must’ve been ashamed
for what reason? i don’t know
cus it wasn’t on a keychain or a bottle of coke
a slave that craved his master’s name, i wasn’t alone
i know some singh’s changed to smith’s when they got off the boat
but yo, in life there’s two types of death
the first is your final breathe
the second is the last time your namе and your title’s said
i guess i was suicidal then
wеll i repent

(?)
i repent
(run with the rain)
my name it came
(over the mountain and over the plain)
i repent
(?)
i repent
(run with the rain)
my name it came
(over the mountain and over the plain)

they’re not ringing you for interviews, it’s leaving you a bit confused
you’re feeling just to switch it up as something as english as eating fish and chips in a cricket pavillion
will instill tradition in you and you think it’s a transition
you’re just going with the flow like waterlillies on a river, as they rush down stream
plus a rose by any other name is just as sweet
please
i am not a flower
word’s have meaning but name’s have power
a name is a gift, granddad had given me mine
so i shouldn’t really mind that red squiggly line
it’s a reminder of what he left behind in search of a better life
i can never emphasise or look upon with gentle eyes
those that sever ties to identify with red and white
tryna stem the tide, but we’re men and mice
there was every sign
cus your eyes never met with mine, everytime you say your name, you tell a lie
why
there’s a lot what you carry, not tom, d+ck or harry
your chariot awaits you
a name is a vessel that can send you to your ancestral home
land you’ve never known
close your eyes and let it take you
(?)
run with the rain
over the mountain and over the plain
