Testo So Low - Talib Kweli
Testo della canzone So Low (Talib Kweli), tratta dall'album Gutter Rainbows
I can go so low
I can feel the gravity that's in the world around me
I can go so low
I can feel the fire burning as it swirls around me
And I done been so low
I felt ice cold like I was at the bottom of the sea
I done been so low
You might dip low, get low, but you never been lower than me
I always speak for the struggle, my people still hurting
I'm a name brand, I'm a product but still a real person
I'm still flirting with death, although I'm still certain
About my commitment to life, although I'm still searching
I bet I'll find a way, if not I bet I'll make a path
One that's seldom traveled by the masses
I never get stuck in all the traffic, I cut through all the plastic
Enemies of the enlightened like the government is fascist
I talk it how I live it yet I'm still
Considered a walking contradiction
Cause I'm breaking out of your artistic prison
Listen, I got my own demons, what I'm supposed to do with yours?
Times like this I gotta remind myself what I do it for
People I knew before celebrity, swear they see the change in me
I tell 'em change is God, you gotta let it be
How does it feel to come full circle?
Still cursing, still pursing my lips to pull purple
I can go so low
I can feel the gravity that's in the world around me
I can go so low
I can feel the fire burning as it swirls around me
And I done been so low
I felt ice cold like I was at the bottom of the sea
I done been so low
You might dip low, get low, but you never been lower than me
You witnessing the building of a legacy
So let us just pray cause the journey that's ahead of us
Got us facing a task that just might get the best of us
That's why we gotta clash with the titans like Pegasus, no Oedipus
But it's like the beat is my therapist when I let it in
It get up in the cracks and the crevices of my memory
What kind of treasure are you buried with?
You fight when you die, are you a soldier or a terrorist?
Remember this, there's no one else to blame when you're solo
Establish your fan base local before you take it global
Don't be scared to spend your own dough
You gotta speak up, be vocal
Sometimes you feel so low, ain't nowhere to go but up
Go with us, we just getting started while you slowing up
But know enough to know this was done by the collective we
Even if my name is on the record sleeve
I ain't into brevity, fuck a celebrity
I can go so low
I can feel the gravity that's in the world around me
I can go so low
I can feel the fire burning as it swirls around me
And I done been so low
I felt ice cold like I was at the bottom of the sea
I done been so low
You might dip low, get low, but you never been lower than me
