The Scarecrow - Knots lyrics

KNOTS Written by Dimitri D. Kwenda Intro: (Harmonies) whisper: Close your eyes, visualize, come alive, inner eye..(x3)... Imagination... Become... Verse 1: Dimtri Close your eyes and try to visualize Freeze the time then materialize Bring your life into a fringe of hope And let it break the failures to which you're roped I know that there's a place where you go You don't struggle to cope no, you hold your own It's not an easier place, a tough knot to hold Claw your way up, be bold and strong But you open your eyes and you realize Unexpected upsets in your life You try to improvise and try to stay in line Summon your strength again in a sigh And for the record, I see your effort I believe you'll get there in your persistence I know the long road you're walking on I'd throw the tow rope to tow you home Yet, here is something you've got to do Alone with no one else helping you Tired muscles but grit your teeth A defining struggle never for the weak Trust in yourself, have self-belief You won't need the help you seek desperately RELY ON - your shoulders STRIVE ON! - Soldier Chorus: For dreams ahead oh I find... (Knots) Knots deep I cannot keep these down (morsels) Morsels of misery to clowns Yeah, yeah, yeah Don't be a piece so weak a fiend To leave your dreams bequeathed to greed... Verse 2 The shimmering glitter, the envy of all hopefuls The daydreams lost in the shadow of potential Magazines, television, radio, society The rioting pa**ion in desire for immortality Just to freeze life in the eternity of memories To achieve just to die clenching a fist of victory Sacrifice, a chance you can't capture twice Pa**ing life hoping to catch an erratic spotlight In the plurality of the demands of fame Where stylistic fashioning is in a constant trade The stakes will know the wind from eternal lungs All consuming in consideration to none Stun the unsuspecting sons of complacency Serendipity is luck that won't suffice adequately (CONFLICT) ...between majority and priority We as MCs are merely state property Subject to the greed, indebted to the need The excellence achieved in an amalgam of these Poetry in motion, we're battling emotions Rattling these bones in the hope we're going to bring home And under the pressure we become the most impressionable The power of demand antagonizes obligation The life of a role model is not fulfilling To be true to yourself stand against the tide of opinion Chorus (x2) SELF BELIEF WILL UNTIE THE KNOTS - THE STRENGTH OF THE DREAM DON'T LET YOUR MIND STOP (x2) SELF BELIEF WILL UNTIE THE KNOTS - HARNESS YOUR DREAM DON'T LET YOUR MIND STOP (x2)
