tales of men - akua naru lyrics

[intro: akua naru]
this is for my people
say, this is for my people

[verse 1: akua naru]
yo, they say that time tells the tales of men
the clock ticks as i dwell within where the self begins
my school of thought start expellin’ friends
till i’m a— yo, i’m alone again, on the poem again
a love jones in the cold of winter, lecture new
move to cologne for him, my heart and soul for him
i figure love is like a journey when
you lose yourself to find your home again, hey, yo, the road is thin
and let’s travel my path, a long battle
teenage parents and drug addicts, gangster rap, love ballads
green tea and thug p-ssion, the plight is enough
p-ssive [?] like say somethin’, see what happen
another portrait of the [?]
hard stares, fingers snappin’, raw and wasted talent
handcuffs an urban fashion
i suppose it’s off balance and there must be, must be, must be

[verse 2: akua naru]
i was in beijing carrying the burden of [?]
had to put it down to dissect and overstand it
the antics, the life and livin’ could damage the [?]
so i stay strict and keep my [?]
[?] malcolm
spin the dreams deferred, we know all about ’em
so found ’em, renaissanced on the streets of harlem
north philly, hussein, that modern day sodom
phone call with a sister that i known since college
talkin’ that old waitin’, that exhale garbage
the problem we forget with how we play a part in
how we attract [?] maintain the nonsense
regardless, had to climb inside, search the gardens
astonished to find i was lookin’ for a father
a elder sat me down, stripped me of my armor
said you’ll only find his private parts
he’ll never have half his heart
and he will never have half his heart
ooh, and he will never have half his heart
hey, he will never have, uh
and he will never have half his heart

[chorus: akua naru]
to my people stuck in poverty
all around the world, all around the world
to my people who be sufferin’
all around the world, all around the world
to my people who be fatherless
all around the world, all around the world
to my people who be strugglin’
all around the world, hey, my ghetto children
all around the world
to my people stuck in poverty
all around the world, all around the world
to my people who be sufferin’
all around the world, all around the world
to my people who be fatherless
all around the world, all around the world
to my people who be strugglin’, stugglin’
all around the world, say, i say strugglin’
all around the world

[bridge: akua naru]
this is for my people
this is for my people
this is for my people
this is for my people
say, this is for my people
and this is for my people

[outro]
[?]
they say that time tells the tales of men
[?]
uh, they say that time tells the tales of men
[?]
