Lyrics:
within such misery
We'd seen a light we'd never seen all crowned with gold
Through morning mist with tears of ice see her coming down
All upon our
change until you get up and wash your ass nigga
Oh now, slow down
And once upon a time in a city so divine
Called West Side Compton, there stood
step
Keep learning, step by step
Keep reading, step by step
What he said, what he said, step by step
Ok
Cast your bread upon the water, keep pressing,
today!
A bull market running an Olympic race
In the ghettos, upon the hills
The real Rio, not just a funhouse of the world
From brothels to the golf
child
And on and on and on and on, etc. And onward
With a sense of wonder
Upon the highest hill. Upon the highest hill
When the child was a child
Once upon a time
Left a set of twins on the side
Snatched away right before their eyes
Drugs hitting different at that time
But did they really know
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
best
And each year when the green corn once again turns into gold
And the poppies in the field again remind me
Like the scar upon my hand
Once upon a time in a land afar, on some deserted hill
There stood a church all black - made of steel
At high-noon every Sunday on the hill the old
the sport
Coats of the season
And surrounded by his whole Odd Future crew
The ascendant singer opens up to
Amy Wallace about his crazy
Year including the bomb
search for freedom
Could find no need for gold
But found herself defenseless 'gainst
The hands of the landlord
"Goodbye to my sweet city
You'll be my
the gold faucets
Be cautious, well known to take the weak hostage
U.S Marshalls on the way and they cut open the gates
Know we going to trial by the look
Were made bright by you
Oh, you loved me more than anyone
Yeah, we were up so high
We were lost when we were young, but
You were mine
Once upon
and snow upon the heights
over the Misty Mountains
O'er the lakes reflect the silvery moon
circle of season, carry the storm
To the hills, the radiant gold
a way to express what you meant to me
Sit around a table and use those ears as the centerpiece
Sounds of the city on Capitol Hill
Where I question if
a way to express what you meant to me
Sit around a table and use those ears as the centerpiece
Sounds of the city on Capitol Hill
Where I question if
I just stepped into my prime
They used to tell me "stop rapping", that was once upon a time
They used to tell me "stop capping", now, I get "oh me, oh
you ain’t know? It’s all about me
Once upon a time there was a young girl
Dreaming of what it would be like to be known by the whole world
Don’t you be
I told you that I would return
But by the look upon your face you had already discerned
You pulled me to the side and you begged for me to stay
But
this land has never been a city on a hill
Vaunting its cathedral it can claim to be superior,
Held aloft by buttresses that strain against their will
there before;
And it's better than this by a damnsite --
So me for the Yukon once more.
There's gold, and it's haunting and haunting;
It's luring me
I heard that you was lookin' for me, well here I go
I told my niggaz you was lookin' for, well there they go
It was once upon a time in the projects
to the perpetual shadow of impregnable crags.
And you, you bigger hills,
devoured by heavy skies,
your elephant backs arched
against the chilling weightlessness
burn by sunbed
Let it turn that city black
Let Cockney die under Marbella sky
And don't fly his body back
Let northerners of either rose
