Sheep - Us3

Walking, thinking, feeling, responding

Uncovering and discovering new things about myself

And this mad world around me

Many philosophies, many tongues, many dialects and tones

Different styles but wild is wild

Calm is calm, but cool is mature

Most cool cats are kids at heart

Now there’s business along with the art

A chef with words, a chef with herbs

A chef with vegetables, soy products and bean curd

Some look at my face and say, ‽You're quite absurdâ€

And I say, ‽Why, 'cos I’m not down with the herd?â€

Of the world I haven’t seen much

But with the mind I escape the ghetto’s clutch

Loose cigarettes, ass bets on celo games

Abandoned cars and colorful names on walls

Suburb days were filled with sun rays

And crooked cops who looked at me sideways

Singin' that same old song

Where ya from, 'cos here you don’t belong

Long strolls unravel my soul like a scroll

Telling many stories untold

Some look at my face and say, ‽You're quite absurdâ€

And I say, ‽Why, 'cos I’m not down with the herd?â€

I an' I light up the sky, who be the sun

To stir up your adrenaline like African drums

Status quo, no, along with the grain, no

I got my own flow

Similar to none, dangerous like itchy fingers on guns

Yet graceful like swans but there’s a built in bomb

Must defuse, must choose, right or wrong, win or lose

Born to die, that’s why I ask, ‽Why is it so hard to get a piece of the pie?â€

Some look at my face and say, ‽You're quite absurdâ€?

And I say, ‽Why, 'cos I’m not down with the herd?â€
