Blue Scholars - Second Chapter lyrics

rate me

Now from the longest to the shortest, twenty-four in a year

From the verses to the chorus you've been longing to hear

The talk story transmitted through verses we persevere

We the presently lasting future first

From the spear to the sling shot

We rock upon a solid block of granite

We stand over the plan to hold the weapon with the fist

And heal it with an open hand

Feeling focused on the promise of a liberated land

And I'm just a simple man

Getting caught crossing the fire more often than not

The fire crosses us and the cross is on fire

Reminders it's not enough

It's been time to dig and find the diamonds in the rough

And then refine 'em in to weapons

To cut up the belly open til we all fall out

Cause the end of what it was is what it is right now

It's a great leap forward kind of different from now

Still drop it on the one like elevators to the ground

Now it's the turning of the page

To the second chapter

A tragedy and comedy so cue the blood and the laughter

To survivors of economic and natural disasters

Living for the right here and not the hereafter

A handful of tracks

Each a snapshot to capture the trials and tribulations

And smiles since you've been waiting awhile

We graduated in style

Congratulations

People of the word gather

Thank you all for your patience
