Wuxi (Chinese: 无锡) is an old city in southern Jiangsu province, China.
Split in half by Lake Tai, Wuxi borders Changzhou to the west and Suzhou to the east. The Yangtze River lies between the northern half of Wuxi and Taizhou, while the southern half of the city borders the province of Zhejiang. Wuxi is also famous for being one of the birthplaces of China's modern industry and commerce, as well as the hometown of many important businessmen who have played essential roles in building commerce in Shanghai since the early 20th century.
The modern name consists of the Chinese characters 无 ("without, lacking") and 锡 ("tin") and simply means "No tin". According to a traditional story, during the warring states period, soldiers were stationed in Wuxi on Xishan ("tin hill"). While burying a pot to prepare food, a soldier found a stone plaque engraved with the words "If there is tin there is an army, conflict under heaven. If there is no tin (wuxi), there is peace, quiet under heaven." According to the story, Wuxi's name comes from this inscription.

(Intro)
Swing high then swing low
I know we all know
Swing high then swing low
I know we all know
(K-Os)
I was rushing to the end
But you're everything I saw, again
And hoping to pretend
I was knocking on heavens door my friends
But I was just a fool, caught up in the game
Everything is cool, believing in my name instead of his
And then the sun came out
I couldn't find the shade, I'm not afraid
Of the light anymore
(Chorus)
Patience
Heavens on the side be patient
The universe is mines
Patience
Everything is grand use patience
And you can understand
(K-Os)
Now everyone knows
We hold the key deep in our souls
But we are living a life on the surface yo
What's the purpose of living lies
Somebody tell me
Some hearts are made of stone (of stone)
They'll find their way back home (home)
I know I walk the path of life eternally
To be free, its all time
(Chorus)
Patience
Heavens on the side be patient (heavens on your side)
The universe is mines (and you don't travel anywise)
Patience
Everything is grand use patience (use patience)
And you can understand (you can understand)
(Outro)
Swing high then swing low
I know we all know
Swing high then swing low
