Manifesto II - Nahko and Medicine for the People
What shall live
What shall die
What gave birth
What gave life
What is yours what is mine what is ours
Are these questions so senseless
Well who's gonna answer them
At the time when I really need to know
So let it carry you like the ocean
When you first learned how to float
So I went to Papa's grave and I
Burned him some sage
I said Thank you but I ain't ever gonna know ya
I said Thank you but I ain't ever gonna know ya
Ah ah ah oww oww ah ah ah oww oww
Oh oh oh ha ah oh oh oh ha ah
La da da da da da da daduh
La da hey hey la da da da da
La da da da
No potential has limit with
Ultimate forgiveness
You can try it on try it out for size
I lost touch with myself with my woman my health my God and my perception too
Well I will always be a part of that darkness although I'd say it's pretty equal to my light
I'm pretty far from knowin' anything
But I do know a couple things
What I want and how I'm gonna get it
What I want and how I'm gonna get it
(That's f**kin' right)
Ah ah ah oww oww ah ah ah oww oww
Oh oh oh ha ah oh oh oh ha ah
La da da da da da da daduh
La da hey hey la da da da da
La da da da
Destiny you can't control
That's cool
I work better alone
Gimme some space gimme some good air to breathe
I s'pose that's what we all want
Our own slice to go off on
And believe
Whatever the f**k you wanna
Well I will never know all of the answers although
I'd never want to know anyway
'Cause I remember when Grandma died she had no tears in her eyes
She was laughin' and raisin' hell
Yeah she was laughin' and raisin' hell
(F**k yeah she was)
Ah ah ah oww oww ah ah ah oww oww
Oh oh oh ha ah oh oh oh ha ah
La da da da da da da daduh
La da hey hey la da da da da
La da da da (hey)
There's a river in the wind
I've floated it before
There's a sliver in your grin
I know who it is for
And there is magic in the skin of the woman I adore
Know each other to the core
So thankful
And there are four tides in a sea
There are cosmic copies
They are built like you and me
So crazy
Don't be afraid to make mistakes
Being human can be great
No matter what is on your plate
Be grateful
And I am ready for the war
Maybe it's comin'
It's not for sure
But it has come before
So maybe
We can end all this pursuit
Find contentment in the truth
Find out what's gonna work for you
And try it out out out
Ah oh Ah oh
Try it out
Ah oh Ah oh
Ooh ooh oooh da da Ooh ooh oooh da da
Da duh da duh da buh ba ba ba da
Da duh da duh do da do do do do
Da da da da da
