Muhammad Ali - Radio Edit

If all you keep hearing it so long you will see me as a super
 star and you'll have time to waste with your minions and tink
 I see your face in front of me,
 Still grainy from that old black and white TV
 My whole family silenced,
 Watching you shape destiny with your 2 hands,
 Faster than the eye can see...
 Mesmerizing
 You know what skinny lickle me started to struggle,
 10 years old suddenly bold
 Cause I resolved to live like my hero in the ring...
 Be smart never give an inch, No retreating
 an I racked up respect from teachers, Red Necks
 And creatures who attack in a pack like insects.
 Never seen the like not before or
 Since, a young prince
 An I remain convinced of his invincibility
 Athletic agility, virility,
 Still a free spirit, forever through eternity
 stingin' like a bee...
 Mr Muhammed Ali.
 I want to know who you are!
 I want to know who you are!
 I want to know who you are!
 Your achievements defy belief from the belly of the beast Rising like yeast,
 yo, My release from low self esteem
 Came when I saw you rapping on my TV screen.
 Float like a butterfly,
 That describes my walk to school after fight night
 I felt so cool cause I was the greatest too,
 Love of self born simply out of love for you,
 And I knew that someday people would love me too.
 None of that hecklin' about my black skin got through,
 I would walk barefoot through hell for you,
 It's how I felt back then an still do, so will you
 accept these humble words of praise,
 And my gratitude for those glorious days
 And meritorious ways instilled in the a young mind.
 Skill sublime,
 yours to mine!
 I want to know who you are!
 I want to know who you are!
 I want to know who you are!
