Lyrics of 7 Feathers by Nahko & Medicine for the People
I know a carpenter
I know a laborer
He is my teacher
He is my brother
I have a neighbor
He is my saviour
He doesn′t waver
He's a strong believer
I know a business man
He scrapped his business plan
While screamin ′Fuck the man'
He gave into the land
The are all archetypes
People that I might like to be
Just like in a completely different way
And we all
We're coming out of our caves
Coming out of our caves
Coming out of our caves
Coming out of our caves
I know a farmer
I know his vision
I know his struggle
I know his hope
I know a futurist
He is an optimist
And he knows a young waitress
And he′s trying to coax her
Out of her cave
By smiling, by winking
By sayin you know it′s good
For us to talk
Yeah, it's good to talk
I know a father
I loved his daughter
I told him never would
I forsake her
But, i got home too late
From one of my escapades
No woman to face, just a note
That saidm baby i′ve sailed away
Right out of my cave
Caught a swell
Caught a wave
To another inspiring place
And we all
We're coming out of our caves
Coming out of our caves
My friend the bureaucrat
He just acceps all that
Which i cannot accept
Such frustration that i wept
For m friend the taxman
He is my father an he
Tallies numbers all day
Yes, he knows his numbers
You could say
He taxes income! iask him how come
"You know, i work hard for every penny
Don′t you think i deserve it all
Oh the law, the law, the law son
There are flaws in the law
But, in the end i just answer
To GOD
Boy, i'm just doing my job
My friend the astronomer
She is a stargazer
I swear the talk to her
Boy, i wish i knew
What the were saying
While i was layin in her bed
With her chest to my head
Were our intentions misread
So i just said it
I said, baby, i′m a nobody
I ain't got no money
Just this ambition to tell the people
We are equal so c'mon baby
Come out of your cave
Catch a swell
Catch a wave
To another inspiring place
And we all
Coming out of our caves
Coming out of our caves yes
We all
We′re coming out of our caves
Coming out of our caves
