The Who, What, Why

The who, the what, the why
Searching through my mind to find out the truth of life
Where we gonna go and where is it we're from
Removing all the labels that the others have stuck on
The who, the what, the why
Searching through my mind to find out the truth of life
Where we gonna go and where is it we're from
Removing all the labels that the others have stuck on

Are you a rapper or a poet
Persian or you english
Are you from Iran or do you class yourself as british
If you were on trial and the lord was your witness
Would you pray to God or do you listen to a spirit
They asking all these questions trying to define you
Categories and labels organising what's inside you
To understand you better to comfort their own doubts
Grab you by your branches and from the root they pull you out
I been meditating on it, I don't claim to be an expert
Racing through my mind til my motherfucking legs hurt
Vexer the more I discover that I was lectured
By a curriculum that glorifies only the west world
Life is an illusion, the truth is just a fallacy
Where we die to live it up but only death is guaranteed
The burdens on the world weighing down on my anatomy
Search for peace of mind in this world of calamity

The who, the what, the why
Searching through my mind to find out the truth of life
Where we gonna go and where is it we're from
Removing all the labels that the others have stuck on
The who, the what, the why
Searching through my mind to find out the truth of life
Where we gonna go and where is it we're from
Removing all the labels that the others have stuck on

We don't need no war
We can't breathe no more
We want freedom for
All the people
We don't need to tick boxes
'Cause we don't fit into your boxes
Your system is toxic (your system is toxic)

People stress about mechanical objects
Your body is a vehicle they don't put into context
Keeping up appearances become too self obsessed
Misogynistic world where we are sexual objects
Let audiences gather from the beauty of spirit
People say they listening but some rarely hear it
Where freedom is for us but they trick us to fear it
They sweeping up communities, capitalist villains and
Middle class citizens that forget about their privilege
Gather villages and raise them up to the night sky
And if you're not them then be aware of the zeitgeist
Are we gonna take in everything that they televise
Terrorise via free articles that just tell us lies
Or are we gonna go the extra mile and read between the lines
With my head in my books I push myself to get wise

I push myself to get wise
Push yourself to get wise
Ladies, men, girls, boys
Push yourself to get wise
