Lyrics 
Once I wanted to be the greatest
No wind or waterfall could stall me
And then came the rush of the flood
The stars at night turned deep to dust

I've been sleeping
Any feeling
Once I wanted to be the greatest
Secure the grounds
Melt me down into big black armor
Leave no trace of grace just in your honor
And then came the rush of the flood
Once I wanted to be the greatest
The stars at night turned deep to dust
And then came the rush of the flood
I've been sleeping for the later parade
No wind or water fall could stall me
Lower me down, pin me in

Make 'em wash a space in town
For the lead and the dregs of my bed
No wind or waterfall could stall me
For the lead and the dregs of my bed
Secure the grounds for the later parade
With brains that could explain
Once I wanted to be the greatest
The stars at night turned deep to dust
Two fists of solid rock
Lower me down, pin me in
Lower me down to culprit south
