Lyrics
Intro:
Why haven’t you learned anything?
Poetic Flow:
My mind is a walk-in closet
everything I speak has logic
just give me a pen and paper
and let my thoughts deposit
as I sit back and relax
Perhaps my poetic raps
can’t grasp the acts of a man about to collapse
But still I deserve praise
for flipping these words on a page
spreading my wisdom and my rage
to the brave kids who left behind their innocent days
and their childhood ways
I taught them to behave in this violent place
so pay close attention
as I spit with the intention to mention
how my mind started its ascension
to a higher learning
Yearning to absorb all knowledge
but still I dropped out of college
because I felt it was time to start earning
Pages kept on turning faster
starting another chapter
Now listen to how I elevated
I never waited till someone stated what I had to do
absorbed everything I could even if it was un-related
I’ve never let ignorance sedated my brain
I don’t complain about things I can’t explain
I let my cerebral vein throb with the bass
as I pick up the mic and entertain a crowd
No biters allowed as I put the music up loud
this is the only time when I feel proud about who I am
The only time where I don’t give a damn about anything
and it’s the only time where I really feel free
and where I finally let the music take me to a higher degree.
Shorty:
That’s how his mind works. Constantly thinking, searching for the deeper meanings of life. It’s only when he’s performing that he finally feels free. Now listen as we travel thru his soul..
Poetic Flow:
My soul is like that ripple in a water puddle searching for a purpose
alive & kicking on the surface but deep within it’s a worthless circus
From the distance my soul’s looking at my meaningless existence
with persistence breaking down my resistance
Searching for a clear path to walk on
sitting wide awake at dawn
writing this song as I’m looking for a surface to build my live upon
Pondering on the question why I exist
I twist my mind and insist
but still it comes down to this
in the end I still remain in an eternal mist
Pissed at life slowly passing me by
moods pass by like clouds in the sky
haunted by the wind
as a monsoon begins within
sometimes it’s like I’m on the outside looking in
As my inner feelings start boiling
turn off the heater cuz it’s time to start enjoying life again
destroying my inner pain and get rid of all the strain
Trying to look up at the sky and take matters in my own hand
and understand that things might not always go as planned
but that doesn’t mean I’m drowning in the sand
I got to finally take a stand and let the music guide me through
absorb the beat and construe my lyrics helping me through the mazes
it always amazes me how music helps me past these depressive phases
clearing up my mind as I’m writing these phrases.
