What was going on yeah aha

And I wrote this

The long distance runner

And recorded this check it ya

Ha

It's 2004

Last year Tony and George

Started the war of the w***es

Same year and the year before

Plus the year before that

Me and the troop were on constant tours

Chanting Imbumba from the South African shores

To the Norwegian fjords

I tried to keep a vegan course

Traveling with good friends like course

Timbuk and DJ Large Jonny Bass and Big Boss

Before the struggle album made the recordstores

We were on a road to hell breakin' doors and laws

Me Supreme Gangsta Pete and Schumi of course

Had a little trouble with the German police force aha

Thats why I had to stop drinking

'Cuz when I start drinking is when I stop thinking

That I gotta stay on top off things

And when I'm under the botlle you know I stop think

Like an athlete a long distance runner

On a track meet spring fall Winter Summer

They attack me but it gon' make me stronger

Get at me dawg when your patience's longer

An athlete a long distance runner

On a track meet spring fall Winter Summer

They attack me but it gon' make me stronger

Get at me dawg

Livin' in this free world-expecting cops to abuse me

When I'm chilling with a cup full o' müsli

Matter of time 'fore my cup is running over

But I'm a get mine 'cus mah****ers running slower yeah

Followin' my sprinter trail

I run **** down the line on the interrail yeah

I ain't going I ain't been to jail

I got work to do and I got things to say

A real rolemodel for the kids today

Can't afford gettin' sent away

Get them fingerprints away

Wipe off the mike every single stain

Recognize bomb **** when it's in my mail

What a big disgrace what a big

Bam-bam you had to end this way

All you ever wanted to was to entertain

Went against the wrong guy 'cus I was meant to stay

Like an athlete a long distance runner

On a track meet spring fall Winter Summer

They attack me but it gon' make me stronger

Get at me dawg when your patience's longer

An athlete a long distance runner

On a track meet spring fall Winter Summer

They attack me but it gon' make me stronger

Get at me dawg when you paper's long

The battle ain't for the strong

Nor the race for the swift

But for those who can't endure

The type o' blaze that I spit

For those that will survive all the changes and ****

With families fans partners and labels you're with

And even if I wanted I woldn't be able to quit

I gotta keep running 'til the pavement will split

Under my bare feet the concrete with red heat

Or till my future kids eat and we all livin' carefree

In a zion hut we ain't dawgs no more

Were my lion's at

Gimme some signal let me see your lion paw

Let me know what we're living and what we're dying for

Ask myself

It's it a good enough reason

If so I go all out like it was my last season

If my voice is weak my boys will speak

To conquer the world I gotta keep a top physique

Like an athlete a long distance runner

On a track meet spring fall Winter Summer

They attack me but it gon' make me stronger

Get at me dawg when your patience's longer

An athlete a long distance runner

On a track meet spring fall Winter Summer

They attack me but it gon' make me stronger

Get at me dawg when your paper's longer

When your paper's longer

No alcohol no w**d

No cigaretts no És

No milk no cheese

No eggs no meat

Just medation and peace

Red lentils chick peas

Good workout good sleep

Mo' sunshine light breeze
