A.S. Lungo/No. V/Shaka

Shaka was a weird guy. I think that’s probably an understatement. Shaka was the Miracle Worker, the Thaumaturge, the Mysterious Benefactor, and the Son of the Secret. The only person who could kill him was, well, himself. I tried my best to pick some songs that hone in on his ineffableness and knowledge of quite possibly everything that was and will be to come. His genres, like he was, are all over the place and the big theme to take away is: he might’ve actually known everything.

5.		I can see it in their eyes They're coming for you, honey Painted faces, sharpened knives Do you think it's funny? If you dress it up, you'll have to break it in But you never look better then when you wear your animal skin
6.		I'm tied to so many things I don't need to do I'll loosen my strings to feel more like you I'm tied to so many things I don't need to do I'll loosen my strings to feel more like you
7.		He is divinity omniscient Seeing the world revolve with spite The surge of humanity oblivious To the divine whom bringeth light Let there be night
8.		Behold the day she found me here So near the end of love's career I feared every flower that appeared Had been uprooted by my peers But then my autumn prayers were heard Just before the frost emerged And I'll have my just desserts When once again I'm next to her
9.		Maybe I'll come true But I got this sinking feeling That nothing's real anymore But I don't care, do you? I got this sinking feeling That nothing's real anymore
10.		‘Cause when people like me they know everything End up telling you what to do You’ll always going to be looking out for me and my interests It’s true
