Pharoah (Edit)
My hair is known, my face is right
My eyes are heather, but worlds apart
I brush my teeth, lotus leaves
You can feel me in the room like Nefertiti
Feeding from my root, yeah, milk and honey from the titty
Sweetest fruit you ever knew, the magic flows so deeply
To every breath, every thought I throw
My secret's in Rosetta Stone
So who is to know where the story goes?
It's all in the mind and I'll rule my own
'Cause I have power in my arms, power in my legs
Power in my mouth, power in my imperfections that make me
A power in my knowledge, power in the magic I do, uh
I'm grown from earth, I fell from a sky
I'm in your water, I'm a butterfly
I'm every colour, though many sides
And choosin' what to show you is my delight
My power's in my self conscious believin'
Who I'd be, and what I do, is down to what I'm weaving
Think it through, is to think it true
So when they start to doubt, just ask
"What Would Cleopatra Do?"
And she would say
Who is to know where your story goes
It's all in the mind and I will rule my own
'Cause I have power in my arms, power in my legs
Power in my mouth, power in my imperfections that make me
Power in my knowledge, power in the magic I do
So if this life isn't bringing me down
I think write these words like a mantra I found
That I have power in my arms, power in my legs
Power in my mouth, power in my imperfections that make me
Power in the things I know, yeah yeah
My eyes are heather, but worlds apart
I brush my teeth, lotus leaves
You can feel me in the room like Nefertiti
Feeding from my root, yeah, milk and honey from the titty
Sweetest fruit you ever knew, the magic flows so deeply
To every breath, every thought I throw
My secret's in Rosetta Stone
So who is to know where the story goes?
It's all in the mind and I'll rule my own
'Cause I have power in my arms, power in my legs
Power in my mouth, power in my imperfections that make me
A power in my knowledge, power in the magic I do, uh
I'm grown from earth, I fell from a sky
I'm in your water, I'm a butterfly
I'm every colour, though many sides

That I have power in my arms, power in my legs
Power in my mouth, power in my imperfections that make me
Power in the things I know, yeah yeah
