[Verse One: Kiwi]

It's been a minute since I last felt you under my feet

Last felt them 8 rays of your sun my cheek

When we first met I really had to struggle to speak

Now I hunger for you like I ain't had nothing to eat

It's something that's deep within me

The legends and the history

The trivia the mystery of this story of ours

The story of wars

We travel on a road full of scars

Late night, all alone with you, I notice the stars

Far away from the city in a secret location

The spirit in the air that burn the whole nation

But we diss you from the start

Your heart was forsaken

I'm here to rectify that, we done waiting

In fact, I'm compensating for them days that we lost

Hoping for the very moment that I make it across

Back in your arms, the only place I feel I belong

With a million folks behind me all singing along

[Hook: Bambu]

You so fly to me

You and I should be

Just you and I but I know I'm just being greedy, can you blame?

With ya

"8 rays, sun on my cheek"

[Verse Two: Geologic]

It's been a minute since I seen my sister, LuzViMinda

Used to love her now I miss her

She the reason my fist is steady closed

With the memory of those that we abandoned

And I know she got my back

She delivered me a champion

And I tell 'em 'bout his auntie in the east

While we hungry in the beast

Our history, the teachers never teach

Until we reaching for the notion of a nation from each

According to ability to each according to they need

I'm writing, recording and performing a feed

Both my hunger to succeed but even more seed

And even more for the people who need to breathe easy

But they can't seem to put down the yosies and the beedies

And they say cause I lost my native tongue that I forgot you

My heart still pumps the blood of Datu Lapu-Lapu

When I got you, and truthfully I could I not without you

When the children in the belly barely know a thing about you

[Hook]

You so fly to me

You and I should be

Just you and I but I know I'm just being greedy, can you blame?

Just "breathe easy"

"Know she got my back"

[Verse Three: Bambu]

It's been a minute and a half since we last touched hands

And that's a lot longer than your man originally planned

I like to think that I stand with you attached to my back

I like to think I bring you with me when I get on a track

Matter of fact, let me take this time to thank you out loud

For birthing my brother Kiwi and Geologic in Sea-Town

Such style, such grace, such a marvelous face

Mmmm, I love everything you put on my plate

I think of you when I get used to being farther from home

I think of you when I feel like I can't fight no more

You the reason I'm even alive and if I've neglected you I'm sorry

But I've become one with my gun since the last time you saw me

I get it now, I know why you like them kinds

Them guerrilla type folks, them rebellious types

So I've joined that team, now I'm on that street

With thousands of your kids marching with hopes to get you free

I see you in my sleep

And keep a piece of you in my heart

And I promise, and ain't no ocean that could keep us apart
