Letra de 'The Vols' de Shing02

So I guess it must have started way back when
when I came to this earth like lightening
or else I wouldn't even be here still writing down
the thoughts to break the world down, how frightening
the way fate twists your arms to make you
come face to face with your people
in need of a voice and you must make a choice
to heed the call or you drop the ball
I didn't want to be the latter, of course the former
therefore I transformed to become, one with the sun
the son of a salary man now off to a path of
salvaging men from Babylonia
I walk on the streets of California yeah
bless an accent that's our slang
Asiatic and Pacifica Islander twang
from the main land to the archipelago
volcanic ashes to the desert blow
no matter how harsh, nomadic in nature
nocturnal senses razor sharp like a ninja
I camouflage with society, never mean to assimilate
more like assassinate and dissipate, no need to medicate
I levitate like when I mediate, let it marinate

(kensho)
From the town of civil rights and protests
where young men and women strived to protect
our freedom of speech some died in process
know it's a priveledge took time to progress
my past projects are tips of the iceberg
even if I get filthy rich off these tight words
still can't buy, or save with cash
what my people lost since the A-bomb blast
dead shoguns and warlords killed by the
blowguns and short swords, who paved the path
send me these deep verses,
lost identities keep searchin'
don't ever behave or act like no fashion mag
Ken Kuma's reincarnated ronin,
where other replacements at?
clubs to basements packed
of course I'm wilden' sippin' kirins
chillin' with women from foreign islands

V-O-L-S
stay on the current like electric volts
speak without fear with selected quotes
from the U.S. to A-S-I-A
yes I, volunteer working night and day
V-O-L-S
Kensho Kuma here to serve the masses
Shing02 represent the classes

(kensho)
In this game, pay yo dues and yo tuition
no man could ever take my use of intuition
I gained through drug abuse and institution
this music, help youth with they confusion
the truth is, only few men are ruthless to influence
a kid like ken, who's in pursuit of improvement?
true skills ain't amusment, it's gruesome we be lootin'
like a viking, manuever through the deep ruins
the tombs and monuments prove that war is an ill artform
and the battles of the past were real hardcore
to fight today why I keep my skills sharp for
my life's worth more then a sealed barcode
more then any amount of cash or Louis Vuitton
more then the fattest ass on groupies seen on
dance floors in the 'Sco, Berkeley, to Shinjuku
I feel soooo worthy I've been through crews
but haters still hate lookin' hard at my shows
ladies be like 'you gotta charmin' tight flow
far as life goes did harm to right folks
the bars that I wrote reverse karmic cycle
Jovian's beats knock, I'm ready for deep thought
get our remedies from medical weed spot
pay our dues, we got elected to speak up!

(shing02)
While y'all downloading that digital junk
I'm up uploading that critical funk
I got the hopes of a nation of a hundred mil'
plus when I bust on stage I reflect the will
like a giant mirror ball pure crystalline
I'm a breath of fresh air mean lysterine
front row get a dose of some extra spit
flow over any riddm and I got to split
'cause I found the kit that will fix the glitch
in a code full of bugs and some dirty script
try flipping on the tube another what? old news
a whole generation feels confused
I see clear now that the war is on
legally any land is a military zone, gotta hold my own
firing off on-point lyrics from the clip on me microphone

V-O-L-S
stay on the current like electric volts
speak without fear with selected quotes
from the U.S. to A-S-I-A
yes I, volunteer working night and day
V-O-L-S
Kensho Kuma here to serve the masses
Shing02 represent the classes
