One of our favourite tracks from the Brothers Of The Stone album. “Wisdom” packs great imagery, social commentary and top lyricism over a killer beat from Illinformed.
VERSE 1:
BVA
- A higher state of learning
- Sat in burning
- Contemplating turning to fate I'm deserving
- All my actions cause reactions
- And satisfaction
- Maybe it's because you stopped acting like a twat son
- Like one morning you wake up
- Know you should break up
- Life shake-up then straight back to spitting tapes but
- I keep falling in the same trap
- Bare back, get attached, feeling scared of the scratch of reality
- Rise out of tragedy
- Moonwalk the galaxy
- Try bits till it fits in the gap like an Allen key
- Fall down like a toddler
- Come back and rob the crown
- Name sounding all trained like a doctor
- I'm more or less more than less than I used to be
- Like a good fuck it's coming together beautifully
- Studying mistakes
- If it's fate then it's fate
- Ain't no cards on my road
- Just myself all over tape
LEAF DOG:
BVA:
CHORUS:
LEAF DOG & BVA
- Stay wise
- Open your third eyes
- Deep in the mind is where the truth lies
- We build ties till our time comes to rise
- Stay focussed, don't reach for the prize
- x2
VERSE 2:
LEAF DOG
- Mind's calm, no need for heart racing
- Like a wisdom passed down through generations
- Knowledge is infinite like the number 8
- My mind feels trapped with no means to escape
- But it's never that late like an insomniac
- See traits in how you act
- Mistakes are turning back
- In a full circle like me and you on this mat
- Our pre-conceived fares learn not to react
- It's a fact
- We're living in an age of ignorance
- Self-obsessed with the media's influence
- The Internet is a powerful instrument
- We don't give a fuck
- Like a man that's impotent
- No indifference
- Let that be
- When you dwell on hatred then that's all that you see
- It's the laws of attraction
- Don't start this
- So we draw what we think like a cartoon artist
CHORUS:
LEAF DOG & BVA
- Stay wise
- Open your third eyes
- Deep in the mind is where the truth lies
- We build ties till our time comes to rise
- Stay focussed, don't reach for the prize
- x2
