Nature Boy

Nature Boy He was just a kid Nature Boy He was a just a myth They used to call me 'Nature Boy' My hair was as long as a wet week People passing Used to say hello When they saw me Walking down the street And now I'm a man I'm so proud of the man that I've become I'm here to show you What Nature Boy looks like Now that he's all grown up When you see me walking many miles Just to find another hill I gotta climb Sisyphus's boulder rolling down all the while I'm about to Break down It ain't a scratch on the systematic inequity Of our times Otherwise known as The spoils of war Makes me wanna give my body to the cause Or jump right off a bridge - The choice isn't easy Lord My lover said don't worry about it But I still do How much longer Can we live with this violence? I wonder don't you? Nature Boy He was a just a myth They used to call me 'Golden Boy' That's a name you don't hear Too much these days But for a while there I thought that I just might be the chosen one That I just might be the one to save you But now I'm a man I ain't to proud to take it back to square one Which got me thinking that Maybe something we can all relate to Is the lie that we all grew up with That's why they've been remaking Star Wars Mike 7, 8 or 9 times Just to convince ourselves That we're good Scratch the surface on the creation Myth of our times And I'm gon' have to hit the town So when you see me walking Around late at night Spare a thought for me and my human kind Plus, spending all day trying to put all that shit Down in a rhyme Drives a man to drink (Nature Boy) No one said it was easy Lord! My lover said don't worry about it But I still do How much longer Can we live with this violence? I wonder don't you? Nature Boy He was just a kid Nature Boy He was a just a myth
