Letter to Falon Songtext
von Jay Electronica

I walked across the water
I came by myself
I climbed the highest mountain
And I ain′t never backing nailed
Hell yeah
Say yeah
I sing yeah
I sing yeah
I sing

I walked across the water
I came by myself
I climbed the highest mountain
And I ain't never backing down
Hell yeah
Say yeah
I sing yeah
I sing yeah
I sing


I was born on Tatooine with dreams of sand
I kept going
The blind would undermine my plans
I kept growing
God blessed the child that has
I kept building
One can′t rewind the past
I push forward

The pain was too much to bear
I kept hurting
Nobody could feel me there
I kept quiet
The tears would begin to well
I just fought 'em
They say you gotta pay your dues
I just bought 'em

What they don′t know won′t hurt 'em
I pledge to never be no one′s burden
Mama said never disrespect your neighbors
'Cause next week, we might have to check for favors
That′s science

I could never thank her for it
And twenty-twenty hindsight is so euphoric
Keep shining
Nobody could stop your progress
'Cause unknown forces move some known objects
That′s magic


I walked across the water
I came by myself
Climbed the highest mountain
And I ain't never backing down
Hell yeah
Say yeah
I sing yeah
I say yeah, I say (keep goin')

The long road home, the crown, the throne
I kept searching
Made time to find my own
I kept asking
Never ever strayed my course
I kept passion
Tried to reconnect my force
I kept fasting

Felt something inside my soul
I kept reaching
And even though that verse got old
I kept preaching
Even when them eyes got cold
We kept teaching

Selling Final Calls on Broad and Allegheny
′Cause who gon′ save them babies
And finally put a definite into all those maybes
A scholar and a gentleman to all those ladies
The haters and the naysayers say y'all so crazy
That′s physics

A necessary part of the story
And twenty-twenty hindsight is so euphoric
Keep shining
Nobody could stop your progress
Because unknown forces move some known objects
That's magic

I walked across the water
I came by myself
Climbed the highest mountain
And I ain′t never backing down
Hell yeah
Say yeah
I sing yeah
I say yeah
I say

I walked across the water
I came by myself
Climbed the highest mountain
And I ain't never backing down
Hell yeah
Say yeah
I sing yeah
I say yeah
I say
