Confucius MC and Jehst - World Stage

Knowing at any cost
Flowing forever lost
Vivid descriptions of rivers littered with growing
loss
Gripping to scriptures for pictures that tell of knowing us
But could we know enough, To call an older bluff? Life took a hold us
The curse of talent lurking over us
At times it was too much to shoulder cuz
Lost my way
Became a victim of ambition
Lent my dreams out
But now I control my vision
This was always about being respected for my efforts
But we all judge a man by different measures Seeking different treasures
In this dark web of different pleasures
The master level can be attained through different methods
So we travel around
Lost until we find something that sticks
In a land where there's always something to pick Living the curse of choice
Pieces on the checkerboard
I'm on my island
Writing pieces as the pressure soars

The way I configure the scripture
That's kinda dope
The way I envision the picture's a kaleidoscope You're looking up for something better
You can die in hope
You're looking to the heavens
This is what you find below
A no-fly zone
How you supposed to spread your wings?
Eyes on the iPhone
You're exposed to everything
Information overload
Got your mind froze
Total detachment turned you ice cold
Your third eye closed
Wide shut
All they do is dumb us down
Better wise up
Check the write up
Now you're feeling informed
Your whole opinion formed
With no critical thought
Been around the world and I, I...
Sitting indoors
And didn't stop to recognise
This isn't the norm
They circle round like vultures
When the lions slaughter
For that low brow culture of The Highest Order

People rarely stay the same
Histories get rearranged
The world's a stage
But who's it for?
Choose your weapon
Choose your war
Choose your weapon
Choose your war
People rarely stay the same
Histories get rearranged
The world's a stage
But who's it for?
Choose your weapon
Choose your war
Choose your weapon
Choose your war
