Muhammad Ali 2.0 |
| I see your face in front of me, still grainy |
| From that old black’n’white TV |
| My whole family silent, |
| Watchin' you shape destiny witcha two hands |
| Faster than the eye could see… |
| Mesmerising |
| Y’Know what? |
| Skinny lickle me, started to strut. |
| Ten years old, suddenly bold, |
| 'Cos I resolved to live like my hero in the ring… |
| Be smart, never give an inch, no retreating |
| An I racked up, respect from teachers, rednecks |
| And creatures who attack in a pack like insects. |
| Never, seen the like, not before or since, |
| A young prince an I remain convinced of his invincibility, |
| Athletic agility, virility, still a free spirit. |
| Forever through eternity, stingin' like a bee… |
| Muhammad Ali. |
| I want you to know |
| Your are the o-riginal |
| I want you to know |
| Your are the o-riginal |
| I want you to know |
| Your are the o-riginal |
| Your achievements defy belief, |
| From the belly of the beast |
| Risin' like yeast yo, my relief from low self-esteem |
| Came when I saw you rappin' on my TV screen, float. |
| Like a butterfly that describe my walk to school. |
| After fight night, I felt so cool |
| Cos' I was the greatest too. |
| Love of self born simply out of love for you |
| An I knew someday people’ll love me too |
| None of the hecklin about my black skin got through. |
| I woulda walked barefoot through hell for you |
| It’s how I felt back then an I still do so will you |
| Accept these humble words of praise. |
| And my gratitude for those glorious days |
| And meritorious ways instilled in a young mind |
| Skills sublime, |
| Yours to mine. |
| I want you to know |
| Your are the o-riginal |
| I want you to know |
| Your are the o-riginal |
| I want you to know |
| Your are the o-riginal |
