lyrics

I’ve been here before
It took a little while to see but
I levelled the score
It was never lost on me that
You had many faces
Only there to slow my odyssey (Slow my odyssey, slow my odyssey yeah)
I’ve been here before
It took a little while to see but
I levelled the score
It was never lost on me that
You had many faces
Only wanna steal my energy (Steal my energy, steal my energy yeah)

Tell the everybody
Strike a pose (Hold up)
Satan get behind me
I see you in the picture laying low
Trying to kiss my bottom like Blarney
Peace was a state of mind I chose
But you want me warring
I’m walking at the pace of an Arabian horse
That’s me and my army
There’s beauty in the cause if you know where to find it
And bag it like bandits
Blessed by the blindness
And blissfully, speaking truth to the power that be,
Parallel-ly making moves to empower the weak,
Tell every tops and turves in the allegory
Taking the lead, in a time when we need it the most,
Sick and tired of ignoring your tropes,
I’m getting out the boat,
Pen in my hand we rewriting the prose

I’ve been here before
It took a little while to see but
I levelled the score
It was never lost on me that
You had many faces
Only there to slow my odyssey (Slow my odyssey, slow my odyssey yeah)
I’ve been here before
It took a little while to see but
I levelled the score
It was never lost on me that
You had many faces
Only wanna steal my energy (Steal my energy, steal my energy yeah)

When you come around I’m ready to shut you down
MuRli’s coming with his army here to catch you now
You know, know, know, know,
So what you got’ do, what you got’ do?
When you come around I’m ready to shut you down
MuRli’s coming with his army here to catch you now
You know, know, know, know,
So what you got’ do, what you got’ do?


Like a Babushka doll I was trapped in my mind
Thinking I was right all the time
Fought my friends when they moved on and left me behind
Taking their betrayal for a crime
But I wonder what was mine
Prisoner of my own bottom line
Took a little while to realise it wasn’t real, a mime
My pity party tricks were sublime
Coz it was all by design
So was the decline, suspended on my shoulders,
No styling, feet on a snowboard I was
Slope-sliding, breakthrough was a boulder
I’m onboard like the captain
On a trip to destination unknown but I’m right in
Every line that I stepped in, Make a mark somersault onto next
I ain’t settling, on the surface, I’m striping
But it ain’t real till I’m surfing in it, I say

Slow my odyssey, slow my odyssey yeah
Steal my energy, steal my energy yeah
Only there to slow my odyssey
