ROME WASN’T BUILD IN A DAY
Rome wasn’t built in a day
my Lady Day
in a day I cross the Rubicam/no lamb
buttress yer fortress m’lord and batten down yer hatches
it’s a storm brewin in this cup
Rome wasn’t built in a day
my Lady Day
sang from the mouth of a deep ocean of history/her story
no mystery it done her all in
a stormy see
see
somewhere in the waters of your mind I fathom
you were lost at
see?
with your eyes shut tight
things were better that way
