Lyrics:

THE SUN TAKE A BOW FOR A DAY WELL LIT

NEXT ACT IS NIGHT WITH AN AUDIENCE OF BROTHERS AND SISTERS

HAVIN' A CELEBRATION OF SORTS

MEETING ONE ANOTHER HOPING SOON TO BE LOVERS

SISTERS HAVE ALWAYS FACSINATED ME

THE MANY SHADES, THE MANY SIZES AND FEATURES

SUCH A WIDE VARIETY OF AFRICAN WOMEN

SOMETIMES LEAVES ME FRUSTRATED AND SPEECHLESS

I TRY NOT TO ADMIRE WHAT I CAN'T OBTAIN OR HAVE

THINGS BEYOND MY REACH DON'T EXIST TO SPEECH

SEEING HOW I'M A BIT SHORTER THAN THE AVERAGE MAN

I PATIENTLY WAIT FOR SOMEONE I CAN REACH

MANY SISTERS DON'T UNDERSTAND MY STYLE

I LIVE MY LIFE IN AN OUTCAST TRIBE

A TRIBE THAT STRIVES TO SEE A BRIGHTER DAY

I FORSEE THAT I'LL WALK WITH CLOSED EYES... UNTIL DAWN



DAWN OF THE DREADS



REJECTION IS A FEAR OF MINE

FOR ONE REASON OR ANOTHER

BUT I STILL ASKED FOR A DATE WITH THIS WOMAN SHE SAID NO

I SAID OH I FORGOT THERE'S A GAP BETWEEN THE RICHER AND THE POORER PO

SLOWLY ALL THE SHADES SIZES AND FEATURES BECAME LESS DIFFERENT

AND MORE THE SAME

EXCEPT A CERTAIN FEMAIL WITH ALL NEW FEATURES

BUT I KNEW NOT HER NAME

BY THIS TIME THE SUN WAS PREPARING

FOR ANOTHER APPEARANCE THE SKY WAS PURE RED

THE NIGHT GRABBED THE MOON AND SOON THE DARKNESS WAS ALMOST DEAD

THE SKY NOW IS ORANGE AND THE NIGHT HAS LEFT THE STAGE

THE CURTAINS OPEN WIDE AND THE BRIGHT SUN YAWNS

TO SIGNIFY A GLORIOUS BRIGHT NEW DAY

THE GLORIOUS DAY THAT I WOULD MEET, DAWN

THE NATURAL DREAD ALSO OF THE OUTCAST TRIBE

KNOWLEDGEABLE ENOUGH TO UNDERSTAND MY STYLE AND WE KISS

IN THE NAME OF REJECTION, THE SKY LOOKS AT US AND WARMLY SMILES



DAWN OF THE DREADS

THE DREADS SYMBOLIZE THE NATURAL GROWTH OF NOT JUST THE HAIR

BUT ALSO OF THE MIND AND ALSO THE BOND THAT KEEPS US IN LOVE

THE STRUGGLE ENHANCES THAT BOND THROUHOUT TIME WHEN I SEE HER

I SEE LIFE THE VAST SCOPE OF LIFE IN HER EYES OF NO WRONG



FAITH PLAYS A BIG ASS PART

I'M STILL KINDA YOUNG BUT I FEEL

I COULD REALLY RUN WITH DAWN

DAWN OF THE DREADS
