Park Bench People - Freestyle Fellowship[00:00:00]
Written by:Mike Lafayette Troy[00:00:01]
I see an old man[00:00:38]
Sittin' on a park bench[00:00:39]
Lookin' in the skies when[00:00:41]
He can see the mouth-stench[00:00:42]
Of the range of the people[00:00:45]
Walkin' and talkin' nonsense[00:00:46]
In the park[00:00:51]
I see a man sittin' there[00:00:53]
With a newspaper under his head and hair[00:00:56]
I think[00:00:58]
He would be down for me[00:00:59]
To tell him[00:01:00]
That he'd been waiting 'round here[00:01:00]
For all of his life and[00:01:02]
It took time[00:01:06]
For the soul to come[00:01:07]
When it came[00:01:08]
I saw the same[00:01:09]
Old scene[00:01:10]
Over and over again[00:01:11]
My friend[00:01:12]
People's talkin' and squackin' in the park[00:01:13]
And sittin' on a bench[00:01:15]
Thinkin' 'bout things[00:01:17]
I think of all the people of the park[00:01:18]
Sleepin' in the street[00:01:22]
Livin' from their hearts[00:01:24]
Sleepin' in the street[00:01:26]
Livin's kinda hard[00:01:27]
Sleepin' in the street[00:01:29]
People fall apart[00:01:31]
There's a park bench[00:01:33]
That's painted black and white[00:01:34]
And when you sleep there[00:01:37]
It don't get wet when you wake up[00:01:40]
Because the trees are withered[00:01:43]
And so you dry in the sunlight[00:01:45]
You sit there and you prepare to make a move[00:01:49]
And so you go through each and every can[00:01:52]
Lookin' inside tryin' to see somethin' that you didn't[00:01:56]
See last night[00:01:59]
Wantin' to get somethin' to eat[00:02:00]
And you go down the street[00:02:01]
You see some friends of yours[00:02:05]
And then they all speak[00:02:07]
Sayin' what's happenin' man[00:02:08]
You sleepin' in the park again[00:02:10]
Yeah nothin' but a survival thang[00:02:12]
You know what I'm sayin'[00:02:13]
Insha'Allah[00:02:14]
Then again my friend[00:02:15]
All they want to do[00:02:16]
Is play you like you are a fool[00:02:18]
But I know better[00:02:21]
You're safe from school[00:02:23]
Through this stay cool[00:02:25]
Mark you are mis-skewed[00:02:27]
And now I know better I maintain black[00:02:28]
We'll overcome[00:02:31]
In the sun[00:02:35]
On the bench in the park[00:02:37]
Where you lay when it's dark[00:02:38]
And it's wet[00:02:40]
'Cause it's raining on you[00:02:42]
You have newspapers and you'd like to go home[00:02:44]
But you can't[00:02:47]
'Cause you just got put out on your own[00:02:48]
You're thinkin' 'bout your kids[00:02:53]
You're thinkin' 'bout your girl[00:02:55]
You're thinkin' of all the things you did[00:02:56]
You see the children play[00:03:00]
You hear the people barely look at you[00:03:02]
Laughing while they run away[00:03:03]
Sleeping in the street[00:03:07]
Living from the heart[00:03:09]
Sleeping in the street[00:03:14]
People fall apart[00:03:16]
In the park where are[00:03:19]
They's every people[00:03:23]
Walkin' round lookin' at themselves far[00:03:24]
As if they were somethin'[00:03:26]
But they ain't nothin'[00:03:28]
They frontin'[00:03:29]
Not a people nowhere standing[00:03:30]
Aw these people are something[00:03:31]
Earth perched on[00:03:34]
The edge of all time[00:03:35]
And yet they search[00:03:36]
For drums imperial dreams[00:03:38]
Similarly so barred[00:03:40]
Can't buy my soul[00:03:41]
Won't sell my soul to the devil[00:03:42]
On the other level never with another rebel[00:03:43]
Under trouble[00:03:45]
Aw no[00:03:45]
I'll never see you go down[00:03:46]
My people can't go down[00:03:49]
Oh no[00:03:51]
