Liquid Stranger Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Chris takes the lead again, knowledge reigns supreme again,
Heavyweight dub champion, they drop the beat again,
Never wait, or show hate, that's what I'm teachin em,
Truth and knowledge through the microphone I'm speaking in,
Staying strong, lasting longer, others be weakening,
This is not a club, this a temple that im preachin' in,
You are not a thug, you've just been hurt by them streets again,
There now there now, nothin to fear now, believe again,
This is the truth, I got proof: TVs decievin them!
Never you dare to compare, me to them, we even it
Me? I help you see again, speak again, and seek again.
The teacher will speak again, but can you comprehend?
If I told you there's really no beginning and no end!
You don't want to hear that, but you're young,
You wanna hear about them gats and them guns,
Because you never had one.
When the drama come, your crew, look at them run,
But we stand firm, (Saralaya?) KRS-One
Where my soldiers at? (We are here!)
All clear - using music as their interdimensional warfare
AW YEAH, AW YEAH, Now here's whats happening,
Prepare for the coming of the last champion...
It's a champion nation!
It's a champion nation!
It's a champion nation!
It's a champion nation!
By the power of the champion, the winner, and still champion:
A real coalition of soldiers emerges from the mountain,
And then embodies the great voice surroundin' the opposition
Initiating the transformation, shall be the chosen one according to ancient translation
In the days of darkness, the militant messiah leads intelligent movement to raise the consciousness higher
From the light mines, from the millions of undiscovered jams, champion nation let the revolution begin
In the temple see victory over the streets, studied the age law, and the DOB's - one through eighteen.
Refinition, self expression in manifestation, speak for the mass on behalf of preservation
Herb inspiration, a metaphysical specialist, the best at this, spring forth a new testiment
Peace and much love to this existance, so there it is liberation for those who bear witness
It's a champion nation!
It's a champion nation!
It's a champion nation!
It's a champion nation!
The lyrics to Liquid Stranger's "Rise" highlight the importance of knowledge and truth in a world that is often misguided by false information. The singer encourages listeners to embrace a higher level of consciousness and see beyond the facade of society. The use of heavy bass beats and dub rhythms creates a sense of urgency and resistance within the music, suggesting that through music and unity, change can be made. The song is an outreach to those who feel lost or misguided, reminding them that they are not alone and that knowledge and truth are the guiding lights towards revolution.
The lyrics also contain a message of resilience and fortitude. The singer states that while others weaken, he remains strong and steadfast in his beliefs. The song is a call to arms for the downtrodden, to stand firm in the face of adversity and fight for their rights. The use of terms such as "champion nation" and "militant messiah" create a feeling of unity and strength, emphasizing that together, anything is possible. The song is not just a call to action, but a statement of empowerment.
