The Nomad

Look, living as a nomad, a man that claims no land
I travel through the dessert with no lessons from the Qur'an
No words from the bible, or verbs from my idles
I curved on my Ownership, my fellowship and title
Until I came upon a bush that pushed that I was vital
It's flames burned like bubba kush, I promise I ain't high though
It told my story, promised glory, spoke of my arrival
It said you traveled the dessert with great effort but still remain idle
My son you are in denial, that survival is running away
From all of your rivals, take a second
Feel the breeze from the seas to your vitals
Then another to feel disease that stifles the cycle, It's
Time to unsheathe your sword and aim for the spinal
Take this staff, a sling, and sing for the vinyl
A battle cry that'll ring on a high note
Look, Moses free your people, David slay your giant
Then stand upon the steeple, lead the people back to Zion
I'll provide you with miracles, to stifle the spiritual
Zealots, heretics, false disciples and criminals that
Celebrated false idols and visuals, I'll
Exercise the full power of the unknown
Just so long as you herd the sheep back to my throne
So I traveled even further, preached to my brothers
Mothers, fathers and beseeched upon others
The streets is our honor so defeat is our burden
To your feet, start marching, concrete won't hurt us
The heat won't burn us
Retreat, unheard of
Defeat me and the tides'll start turning
The free slaves'll ride and then start learning
That these days to survive's not about running
But compromise and if none, then start gunning
Disturbing the peace is our order
Build your borders, stand firm, no quarter
Build your borders, stand firm, no quarter

The lost words from a deserter
With no land, no verbs, no sheep to herd
With no brand to prove that I was from the earth
Cause when they came, I moved
Hoping that soon they'd disperse
I sunk down, hid my head deep in the dirt
And when time came round, I tried put in the work
The cities burned down, I tried build up a church
The people weren't listening, they smiles weren't glistening
For water to trickle down is all they could put they wish in
So give them a miracle
Turn they wines to water, then feed to each and every individual
Fill the change jars with something less typical
Tell em it ain't just another pot to piss in
Tell em the same God from exodus is different
Then hit em where they can't prod, the metaphysical
Make they souls invincible
Make they spirits difficult to break down
Unlike the minerals that bury underground
Look, something like subliminals
Let the message be known, lead the people back to the throne
I wish I knew then the knowledge learned now I've grown
That a mirage is powerful yearning for a home
