Nitin Sawhney - The Pilgrim lyrics

Your rating:


Woke up in the morning in a temple

Kinda lucky on my feet for it was central

So I walk across the village

Saw a group of kids pillage

And I thought to myself I might be mental

You see

Pilgrims in the town

All seem to hold a frown

Say all they wanna be is diggy down

You know Speck thought he'd ask

But figured it's just a mask

Tthis guy's on something else that's profound



I'm not the stool or the fool or the leader here to rule

Not the lover or the fighter who came here to duel

But I thought I looked into, but I walked into

So I can understand all the rules, cool?



Life is like a puzzle not pieced yet

Might take a village ever long to see that

Don't break your ties with my pal compromise

And the kid you wanna be you can be that



Who's ever watched the world that's my motto

Don't ever wanna play the head honcho ?? but huh

If you try to push I won't beat around the bush

Straight up you're getting dissed on the pronto.



Life is like a puzzle not pieced yet

Might take a village ever long to see that

Don't break your ties with my pal compromise

And the kid you wanna be you can be that



If I could, I'd solve the problems of the world that exist

If I could always chill, I would without resist

If you weren't so literal, brother you might get it

Pack my bags, tambourines, and jeans so don't sweat it



Life is like a puzzle not pieced yet

Might take a village ever long to see that

Don't break your ties with my pal compromise

And the kid you wanna be you can be that



Life is like a puzzle not pieced yet

Might take a village ever long to see that

Don't break your ties with my pal compromise

And the kid you wanna be you can be that



Life is like a puzzle not pieced yet.



As the journey continues I gain current instincts

I feel I know what they must be thinking, for instance

When they speak in riddles I'm left with the question

But won't stop arguments to kill attention

They all got a sixth sense to be one another

So pilgrims seek refuge undercover

Where it's fly like birds to live a lot is absurd

Try telling that to this kid named Unver



Life is like a puzzle not pieced yet

Might take a village ever long to see that

Don't break your ties with my pal compromise

And the kid you wanna be you can be that



Life is like a puzzle not pieced yet

Might take a village ever long to see that

Don't break your ties with my pal compromise

And the kid you wanna be you can be that



I met him on tour a week on for twenty four

He was born in the village, but left in ninety four

Now he's still got probs he doesn't know how to solve

I said, "Unver, I've been there before"

In the light of understanding I forgot it

Sometimes the boat shakes when you rock it

I told him we are like family, a part of humanity

Don't overdo, and don't toss it.



Life is like a puzzle not pieced yet

Might take a village ever long to see that

Don't break your ties with my pal compromise

And the kid you wanna be you can be that



Life is like a puzzle not pieced yet

Might take a village ever long to see that

Don't break your ties with my pal compromise

And the kid you wanna be you can be that



He dug and moved on with his life

'Cause he digs it gets real dark at night

Don't want a collar that's blue or a reflection of you

Just wants us to get his plight

Myself I'd like the years just to take me away

It might leave a part of this world in dismay

But the village calls the pilgrim ?in Negroes?

After all I'm just one needle in the hay

Now what I'm speaking in is symbolics

But you can call it what you want to call it

See all that I do is throw words, and I hope that you caught it

Only got one arrow but I aim for two targets



Life is like a puzzle not pieced yet

Might take a village ever long to see that

Don't break your ties with my pal compromise

And the kid you wanna be you can be that



Life is like a puzzle not pieced yet

Might take a village ever long to see that

Don't break your ties with my pal compromise

And the kid you wanna be you can be that

You can be that, you can be that
