Mat's Rap
I'm a boy
I'm not a savior
just was there to blow the Horn
I'm ta'veren
just like Perrin
I don't know why I was born
Save the world?
Light, blood and ashes
I'll leave that battle to Rand
I know, I've read the Prophecies
He always makes the stand
and he's Lew Therin
so says Verin
and some other Aes Sedai
and he'll fight the Dark One for us
and he'll suffer
and he'll die
I can gamble
I can juggle
I can tumble with the girls
but I can't do anything but watch
as the Pattern's weave unfurls
And when I try to break away
it always pulls me back
and even when I go with it
it doesn't cut me slack
I'm no longer
much like normal
and I've seen more than I should
and I've been through much more trouble
than I ever thought I could
so now just tell me
what to do here
I'm not sure
which way to go
I can try to stay alive
It's the only thing I know
I'm a boy
I'm not a savior
just was there to blow the Horn
I'm ta'veren
just like Perrin
I don't know why I was born
Save the world?
Light, blood and ashes
I'll leave that battle to Rand
I know, I've read the Prophecies
He always makes the stand
and he's Lew Therin
so says Verin
and some other Aes Sedai
and he'll fight the Dark One for us
and he'll suffer
and he'll die
I can gamble

I can tumble with the girls
but I can't do anything but watch
as the Pattern's weave unfurls
And when I try to break away
it always pulls me back
and even when I go with it

I'm no longer

and I've seen more than I should
and I've been through much more trouble
