This song is just as spiritual as it is about relationships. With either one, it is so easy to come unglued from your faith in God or with a loved one in a romantic relationship. Throughout my time in Chile, I felt like I was starting to come unglued from keeping a strong relationship with God and many other things. The truth is, the struggle won't completely unglue us, as long as we get back to what is really important.
This song is also the beginning of what looks like could be the main style for me. Some singing, a rap verse, a phat beat and some good rhythms!
lyrics
Verso 1
{I} been schemin’ up a revolution
I been searchin’ for, some kind of true
I won’t keep workin’ out the same solution
It’s hard to live inside a world so CON-FUSED
Coro
ahhh, ohhh, we nearly came UN-GLUED
ohhh, ahhh, give me good lovin there ain’t no SUBSTI-TUTE
Verso 2
{You} develop like an evolution
(still) You been searchin’ for, something you knew
You keep callin out my contribution
(but) If we gon do this s'gon be ME AND-YOU
Rap Bridge
a prophet pause under a palm tree /
to contemplate the serenity / of Psalm 23 //
from atop the sand dunes I can see the whole city /
my girl’s by my side and don't she look pretty //
So right / shinin bright / like a star in the night //
and she rockin’ my favorite style / a real big smile //
(I'm) growin wiser same time growin older /
Place my burdens on His shoulders /
And watch Him make pebbles outa boulders //
No room for fear / this year / my dear //
Verso 3
{We} been schemin’ up a revolution
We been searchin for some kind of true
We won’t keep workin’ out the same solution
In this cold world we gon MAKE IT-THROUGH
