Thas Me
Navigating Solitude: Joshua Asante's Urban Odyssey
Lyrics
I walk the streets of this city alone
I navigate the streets of this city by myself
Jus me
Only me
No comrade
Without companions or allies
Family or home
No family or place to call home
Jus me
Just me
Nine mile from the Heights
Nine miles from the Heights
To Southwest, where I'll be
To Southwest, my destination
And I walk the halls of
I traverse the halls of
This house alone
This dwelling alone
Jus me
Just me
Whooo
Expressive sounds, possibly laughter or emphasis
Whooo
-Whooo
-Ha ha
-Ha ha
-Ha ha
-Ha ha
-Mercy
Expression of mercy or compassion
Ha ha
Continuation of expressive sounds
Ha ha
-Ha ha
-Ha ha
-Mercy
-I walk the streets of this city alone
I continue to traverse the city alone
Jus me
Only me
No comrade, no family
No comrades, no family ties
No home
No home to belong
Jus me
Just me
Nine miles to Southwest
Nine miles towards Southwest
From the hills
From the hills, indicating a journey
Where I'll be
Where I'll eventually be
Oh, who coulda known
Reflection on the unexpected nature of the journey
It was so long
Realization of the lengthy path
Down University
Specifically down University, indicating a location
And I walk the halls of
I walk the halls of
This house alone
This dwelling alone
Jus me
Just me
