Faithless - Muhammad Ali Lyrics
If all you keep hearing it so long you will see me as a super starAnd youll have time to waste with your minions and tinkI see your face in front of me,Still grainy from that old black and white tvMy whole family silenced,Watching you shape destiny with your 2 hands,Faster than the eye can see.MesmerizingYou know what skinny little me started to struggle,10 years old suddenly boldCause I resolved to live like my hero in the ring,Be smart never give an inch,No retreat when Im wrapped upRespect from teachers, red necksAnd creatures who attack in a packLike incensed never seen the light not before orSince a young princeAnd I remain convinced of his invincibilityAthletic agility, virility,Seen your free spirit for every through eternity stingsLike a bee mr muhammed aliI want to know who you are!I want to know who you are!I want to know who you are!Your achievements defy belief from the belly of the beast rising like yeast,My release from low self esteemCame when I saw you rapping on my tv screen.Float like a butterfly,That describes my walk to school after fight nightI felt so cool cause I was at place too,Love myself born slippyOutta love for you,And I knew that someday people would love me too.None of that heckling about my black skin got through,I would walk bare foot through hell for you,It was how I felt back then I would still do for you,So accept these humble words of praise,And my gratitude for those glorious daysAnd your victorious ways,Instilled in the young minds,Skill sublime yours to mine!I want to know who you are!I want to know who you are!I want to know who you are!
