Analysis of A world filled with stones
Lisakhanya Noku 2007 (George)
Welcome to a world full of stones
Where one can run away from destiny but never their fate
Cause like it's all been said and done
Fate is fate and destiny is destiny
Fate is aligned with what we can never dare to change not even a wise man
Who discovered maths can change it
We live in a brutal society where you have to
have a clear destiny and one mistake means
you are as good as dead in the eyes of society
"Long lives my poor soul against these vultures trying to rip me apart"
Society is destined to see the bad in you rather than the good
Nobody wants to see the other succeed
Success is what lives rent free in our minds rather than actioned
We are all successful in our minds but only 10% can make it through the hardships that comes with the Word Success
Yet again "long lives my poor soul that is inclined to succeed"
