Lyrics:
Waiting for orders we held in the wood
Word from the front never came
By evening the sound of the gunfire was miles away
Ah, softly we move through
city baby
I’m just tired by the blues
I’m tired by the city
Down on the hill my mind gets mad
My feet are off the ground
Down that way baby
It’s the way
everything we had
I miss the hungry years
The once upon a time
The lovely long ago
We didn't have a dime
Those days of me and you
We lost along the way
The moon is rising over her tombstone in the dirt
Right above the land where she felt love and bitter hurt
The wind upon the hillside wields a dry
Well I felt like I was born today
So I took it upon me to go away
To gather my thoughts and go away
Where I could (be used by) somebody
Now
Waiting in the setting sun at the end of the road
The armies have moved away like the fading gold
I stand sentry by the rusting gate but no one
to the sun
And the fury of the moment they felt,
but could only silently look above
There is a hill near Jerusalem that wild flowers grow upon
Flowers
Waiting for orders we held in the wood
Word from the front never came
By evening the sound of the gunfire was miles away
Ah, softly we move through
true
Who would leave this here in a city cold and dead
Desperate for an answer, we look to the palace ahead
Among the heaps of gold bodies lay strewn
Surely there is a mine for silver and a place where they refine gold
Iron is taken from the hills and copper is taken from the ground
So where is
Yo, once upon a time, had dreams of the big benzes
Then I got it all, now all that shit seems senseless.
Audible screams, all of my dreams surrounded
I love how the city looks to be an artifact
Just like jewels rested upon a sea of black
On this night and on this hill
Downward those jewels seem
Who would leave this here
In a city cold and dead
Desperate for an answer
We look to the palace ahead
Among the heaps of gold
Bodies lay strewn
Skeletal
Yeah, I'ma need that gold medal, matte black shit on a whip
Hear them drums, nigga? ERYS in a 6 with the wrist
'Bout to swish, no assist, never
given it all
Left to dry in the rain
Washed away by love's indifference
Broken down, twisted and lame
Hold me for a moment
Help me find myself
unheard
Up on that once green hill
Around the mazes
And seeing the darkness
The jaws will take it slowly
The sun burnt out today
Fools are dancin'
around to see what it's all about
Grabbed my pack
Headed out on the road
There's intelligent life here
Or so I'm told
Hills and trees
Gold and green
Clear
through the hills
Their spirits carried by the wind
Shadows cast by age long past
Sombre is the realm of ancient kings
Silence surrounds the circle
crimey
Crim-inim-inal indivi-dual I be
Searching for the Dark Knight
Lurking in the shadows of the city, he roll with jiggy
My crime committee, robbing
feeder beware, once complete you might not want to be there. Dead straw to gold bar spin fiber. Lost and fond in a smitten kitten's incisors. They
three buses and then run, up the worlds biggest hill
Only coming to find you'd been there for 20 minutes already when i saw you i died
You and I
Once
running, he was walking
And his axe was made of burning gold
Well, the trees they got much smaller
Yes, the lake a lady's mirror
When we stopped to drink
Where the maps end, and legends begin
Lies the whispers of cities, swallowed by sin
Streets of gold, now veiled in myth
Lost to time, and the fog's
[Violent J]
The Time has come for the blood to run into the streets paved with gold
We have lived in the zoo of the ghetto for so long
And like
