Unforgivable Youth - Lupe Fiasco

Artist: Lupe Fiasco
Title: Unforgivable Youth（feat Jason Evigan）
This world my heart my soul
Things that I don't know
The icicles they grow
They never let me go
Scars are left as proof
But tears they soak on through
Things I've done
My young
My unforgivable youth
We land on the horizon
The passion in their eyes then
What they think of islands and much more in their size
Bountiful and plentiful and resource to provide them
Supplies slim
Morale when so heavily inside them
Now steadily declining
Return is not an option as necessity denies them
With this they choose to dive in
Now along the shore and so aware of their arriving
Other children of this land prepare to share in their surviving
A pigeontry of feathers stands his majesty with treasure
Now the material things that kings that could never last forever
But secrets of the spirit world
And how to live in harmony together
Unbenounced to him his head would be
The first that they would sever
And stuck up on a pike up along the beach
Kept up as a warning to the rest to turn away from their beliefs
And so began it here And for 500 years
Torture Terror Fear til they nearly disappear
This world my heart my soul
Things that I don't know
The icicles they grow
They never let me go
Scars are left as proof
But tears they soak on through
Things I've done
My young
My unforgivable youth
Ways and means from mistreated human beings
A slave labor force provides wealth to the machine
And helps the new regime establish and expand
Using manifest destiny to siphon off the land
From native caretakers who can barely understand
