One Horse Town

[Chorus: Confucius MC & Jehst]
Sun comes down on sacred stones
Players take their leave
One horse town I made my home
Save a place for me

[Verse 1: Jehst]
We were getting high out on the Peckham Rye
When you were just a twinkle in your parents' eye
Don’t you know that Joni Mitchell never lied
Put up a parking lot - they paving over paradise
We really oughta take some time to analyse
Thе theory is to find out where your talеnt lies
Provide the children with an exit sign
You might score the winning goal in extra time
Jesus, let me testify I’m finding strength
This could be the difference between life and death
From the fire to the frying pan - The Iron Chef
The poet pledging my devotion ‘til my dying breath

[Chorus: Confucius MC & Jehst & Eva Lazarus]
One horse town I made my home
Save a place for me (me, yeah)

[Verse 2: Confucius MC]
Was on my way to check the High Plains on Rye Lane
Caught in the migraine
Old Paradice on my back - doin’ it my way
Rappers get side chained - an old story 
The player now becomes the casualty of a dice game
From the alcoves of art where we shout quotes
And shout ghosts
Gatekeeper’s standing at the outpost
Just another outcast - free stacking
Rolling round trying to plug in to the detachment
Drifting off of my own accord
In the city where they hold the sword
Bowing to the overlord
Begging and bowing just to hold some more
Find me twirling up a potent draw
Evolving like Bulbasaur
Trying to walk through the open door
But getting caught up in the rope-a-dope trope
I guess I’m open more
Dust my kicks on the highest sands
Rolling bang in the highest lands
Believe me cuz - time is planned

[Verse 3: Eva Lazarus]
A breed ah impositions I was on a mission 
Slow it down? You must be kiddin’
Looking back I see I revelled in a challenge 
Looking down I see how far I come - I manage 
To make a diamond from the earth
The pressure made this kinda pearl
Sometimes I miss the old world
Where I felt unobserved 
An antisocial girl 
One hand I count 
5, 4, 3, 2, 1 - my real girls
Yeah they’re the real ones - that’s my word 
Yeah that’s my word
I see the future and it’s so bright
Build up my fam and keep us all tight
I’m looking back and I see real fight
Not to go gentle in to that goodnight 
And hear the R.I.P. because my foresight 
Told me 4:20 - we gon’ be alright
I sip this cup of tea and read the leaves right 
And in a few short years when you can read (and) write
I hope you raise your voice and get the words right

[Chorus: Confucius MC & Jehst & Eva Lazarus]
Sun comes down on sacred stones
Players take their leave
One horse town I made my home
Save a place for me
