| [00:10.272] |
May my passion inspire, so please listen in close |

This is for my people struggling with education |
| [00:15.155] |
And this is for my people excelling past expectations |
| [00:17.992] |
The story is simple as our life pages turn |

From our journey of passion may your conscience mind learn |
| [00:23.335] |
(Te Awanui) |
| [00:23.803] |
Untarnished flames step alongside us |
| [00:26.142] |
On our journey |

This goes out to those who said we wouldn't make the cut |
| [00:50.448] |
I've seen my share of people spreading gypsy myths |
| [00:52.969] |
Crossed paths with people dodgier stiffer than 50 pricks |
| [00:55.395] |
But still there's never been an obsticle unecessary |
| [00:58.089] |
Looking back the reflections that ish was legendary |
| [01:01.027] |
Donald, Fred and Chelease back in 96' |
| [01:02.867] |

Yo Chapter 2 |
| [01:07.110] |
Now that's a different story it was me leki |
| [01:09.500] |
Singing hooks self explanatory |
| [01:11.980] |
Blossomed to merge and DIRECT HARMONY |
| [01:14.380] |
It was about time we met the Fa'atasi Family |
| [01:16.782] |
Went on to rock talent quest, numerous shows |
| [01:19.455] |
Last minute rugged cuts haha sabre let 'em know |
| [01:21.139] |
(Feleti) |
| [01:21.307] |
Hysterical productions looking back that's history |
| [01:24.862] |
Dispite the horrors of flat moments friendship remained the key |
| [01:27.276] |
(Donald) |
| [01:27.437] |
Now around 98' Arch Dynasty formed |
| [01:30.042] |
Chapter 3, D.H and Fa'atasi joined force |
| [01:32.961] |
Pasifika festivals, Grey Lynn community |
| [01:35.461] |
Laying the foundation for this Nesian Mooli |
| [01:38.076] |
Chapter 4 into the final thought |
| [01:39.917] |
Reminiscing back on lessons experience, once taught |
| [01:43.391] |
Continuly proceed by any means see fit |
| [01:46.614] |
This has been a brief reflection of how I lived |
| [01:47.847] |
(Te Awanui) |
| [01:48.155] |
A brief reflection |
| [01:50.928] |
Listen in right here |
| [01:54.045] |
Of my dreams |
| [01:56.791] |
Teleport to another time |
| [01:59.498] |
Courage enhanced |
| [02:02.686] |
Together we're stepping forth no one can hold us back |
| [02:05.545] |
Through where I've been |
| [02:07.968] |
We are C O C O nuts from da city |
| [02:09.828] |
(Feleti) |
| [02:10.691] |
Allow me to take you back to where it all began |
| [02:12.997] |
Listening to street poets black performing with my dad |
| [02:15.359] |
Yoduced to MCing by my cousin Scribe |
| [02:17.840] |
Way before him and P-Money's thoughts synchronised |
| [02:20.497] |
Along with trax and N.A.T formed the Fa'atasi family |
| [02:23.247] |
Representing afakasi's C.O.C.O.N.U.T'S |
| [02:25.853] |
Unveiled hiphop in depthly and what it meant to me |
| [02:28.882] |
Completed the evolution becoming an MC |
| [02:31.475] |
The art form called, open doors by love of people |
| [02:34.263] |
Doing gigs nobody else ever will concede to |
| [02:37.115] |
Bust Acoustic stylistics with J.P like meditating |
| [02:39.682] |
Develop my style and content for navigating |
| [02:42.432] |
Through this shady industry which comes with no surprise |
| [02:45.067] |
At this time D.L.T truly opened up my eyes |
| [02:47.486] |
He said they'll try to change you, but don't let this phase you |
| [02:50.524] |
They can't contain the truth, simply remain you |
| [02:52.613] |
So with knowledge in my pocket |
| [02:54.330] |
And a fist full of rhymes |
| [02:55.856] |
Progression was constant |
| [02:57.115] |
Lyrics slowly refined |
| [02:58.514] |
While the ignorant critized, stepping on hollow ground |
| [03:00.783] |
Uplifting belief of family encouraged my inner sound |
| [03:03.160] |
The spirit guided me through turbulent monsoons |
| [03:06.145] |
A.K.A the non believers with negative attitudes |
| [03:08.714] |
May the music empower strengthening within your mental |
| [03:11.356] |
Unexpected was the rise of these kats from city central |
| [03:13.157] |
