Ancient
Deep in the water I saw
A man, flowers in hand
What was he thinking?
I wondered again
My modem fried
But I plugged in electric skies
I got unknown roots
That twist and tie
That dim but never die
They just combine
Deep in my eyes
They come alive, they come alive
It's automatic, cut the havoc like a Samurai
And all this static that keeps building up inside my mind
And all my light
And pride that cannot subside
Turn back now, turn it down
I cannot abide
Ancient
These feelings that feel inside
Ancient
But I'm Fresh off the assembly line
And waiting
For all my stars to align
Anxious
For this distant time
To catch up with this, modern life
I ain't one of a kind
But part of a long line
Decedents of dragons
You know all Divine
The power of the mind
Erlang Shen with a third eye
With a Simian vibe
Warding off evil
In simpler times
Confusing the issue
Confucius was right
It's ain't institutions
It's about human life
Particularly mine
Cause I'm still in my prime
My warrior ways
Keep filling my mind
Loyalty stayed but I changed the design
Ancient
These feelings that feel inside
Ancient
But I'm Fresh off the assembly line
And waiting
For all my stars to align
Anxious
For this distant time
To catch up with this modern life
To catch up with this, catch up with this
Modern lie
This modern life
Catch up with this, catch up with this
Modern lie
Catch up with this, catch up with this
Modern lie
With this modern lie
With this modern lie
Imma grind till make it
Till take off in this makeshift
Building up my my own myth
So I could be the one to break it
Giving up all gifts
Along with my patience
Don't fuck my melanin
You should be scared of the yellow skin
Cause I know that's ancient
Everything I'm standing on
Tall as a spaceship
I don't wonder where the days went
Cause they were spent on creation
I'm adding to a long list
As complex as the hieroglyphs
And imma make the piece fit
For the good of the asian
Ancient
These feelings that feel inside
Ancient
But I'm Fresh off the assembly line
And waiting
For all my stars to align
Anxious
For this distant time
To catch up with this modern life
This modern lie
Catch up with this, catch up with this
Modern lie
A man, flowers in hand
What was he thinking?
I wondered again

But I plugged in electric skies
