ON & ON

Oh my, my, my
I’m feelin’ high.
My money’s gone
I’m all alone.
Too much to see, the world keeps turning.
Oh what a day, what a day, what a day...

Peace and Blessings manifest
with every lesson learned.
If your knowledge were your wealth
then it would be well earned.
If we were made in His image
then call us by our name.
Most intellects do not believe in god
but they fear him just the same.

Oh on & on & on & on
My cipher keeps movin’ like a rolling stone.
On & on & on & on
All night till the break of dawn.
I go on & on & on & on
My cipher keeps movin’ like a rolling stone.
Oh on & on & on & on
Goddammit, I’m a sing my song.

I was born under water
with three dollars and six dimes
Yeah, you may laugh,
cause you did not do your math.
Like one, two, three
The world keeps turnin’
Oh what a day, what a day, what a day...

The man that knows something
knows that he knows nothing at all.
Does it seem colder in your summer time
and hotter in your fall?
If we were made in His image
then call us by our names.
Most intellects do not believe in God
but they fear us just the same.

Oh on & on & on & on
My cipher keeps movin’ like a rollin’ stone
On & on & on & on
All night till the vultures swarm.
On & on & on & on
My cipher keeps movin’ like a rollin’ stone
On & on & on & on
Mad props to the God you’re born.

I’m feelin’ kind of hungry
cause my high is comin’ down.
Don’t feed me yours,
cause your food does not endure.
I think I need a cup of tea, the world keeps burning.
Oh what a day.

The mothership can’t save you so
your ass is gone and left.
If we were made in his image
then call us by our names.
Most intellects do not believe in God
but they hear us just the same.

Oh on & on & on & on
My cipher keeps moving like a rollin’ stone
I go on & on & on & on
Why? Cause you did not do your math.
On & on & on & on
My cipher keeps movin’ like a rollin’ stone
Oh, on & on & on & on...
