A keep moving out into the gap
A keep moving out into the gap
A keep moving out into the gap
A keep moving out into the gap
A keep moving out into the gap
And I see for the first time just what you believe
And I won't ask permission, not from teachers or from kings
And listen to the chanting and all the lies the wise ones tell
Beggars in the back street, there for all the world to leave
But there's no need to be so frightened of all the figures in the night
Can you smell the perfume of a hundred thousand years?
Cause I can see for myself all the pain that you will bring
Cause they say
Cause we share the same emotions and no one's wrong and no one's right
Dare you look into the eyes that hide a hundred million tears?
East is east, west is west
East is east, west is west
East is east, west is west
East is east, west is west
East is east, west is west
I go down to the market where I can buy or sell
It's you that's begging for attention
They say
They say
Two diff'rent colors on the map
Two diff'rent colors on the map
Two diff'rent colors on the map
Two diff'rent rhythms to the rap
Two diff'rent rhythms to the rap
Wake up in a strange land, one of forty thieves
We say break the line, chew the fat
We say break the line, chew the fat
We say break the line, chew the fat
We say break the line, chew the fat
We say break the line, chew the fat
Well it's all the same to me
