I'm flowing prose to cons and cons to pros[00:00:15]
I'm scheming rhyme against reason like it was flow against know[00:00:18]
But beyond the concepts and emotions that rise[00:00:21]
To the interconnectedness that underlies[00:00:25]
The lies upon lies have lost their meaning[00:00:25]
The plies upon plies of consciousness that is being[00:00:29]
Over and over I fall I learned to walk from a crawl[00:00:31]
It's not sad it's just the way and the purpose of it all[00:00:34]
Now every word that you heard that I said that you felt[00:00:42]
Was put in place in the space as they were shuffled and dealt[00:00:45]
I steal feels from reels but I pay my respects[00:00:47]
Paying compliments and disses and deciphering affects[00:00:50]
Words are water as I court her as she is pristine[00:00:53]
Words and mics fall to dust and all that's left is the feelings[00:00:56]
I give in and I win I try to never complain[00:00:58]
Intentions venture to center and then they set the stage[00:01:01]
But I'll remain sane making gain without pain[00:01:04]
Staining trains with names and driving lanes to the refrain[00:01:06]
And keep it positive as painstaking as it is[00:01:10]
I'll never turn back cause that's the way I've got to live[00:01:16]
So like a cloud carries rain I'm gonna carry my rhyme[00:01:25]
Coming like thunder with lightening timing[00:01:28]
No hesitation in gestation of thoughts and plans[00:01:31]
Ferment time like wine no ploys or scams[00:01:33]
Like the islands dot the oceans in the endless seas[00:01:36]
Ideas coming to me in answer to my pleas[00:01:39]
Woke up this morning right out of a dream[00:01:41]
Reached for my pen and pad because my mind was on a rhyme scheme[00:01:44]
What can I do with these bones and flesh[00:01:47]
With these animated thoughts in a world repressed[00:01:49]
I'm going down like the rhythms on the winds of change[00:01:52]
I'm keeping calm under pressure like a deep sea range[00:01:55]
I'm flowing prose to cons and cons to pros[00:01:57]
I'm like Toucan Sam when I follow my nose[00:02:00]
I'm giving shouts to Gandhi Gravy and King[00:02:03]
His Holiness and all enlightened beings[00:02:05]
I'll be the one who screams it on the microphone[00:02:08]
I'll be the one who brings it inside your home[00:02:11]
But the words ain't mine I just pass em along[00:02:13]
For Betty Williams and her friends I sing this song[00:02:16]
And more ink from my pen and more tears from my eyes[00:02:19]
And more crimes are committed as I say these lines[00:02:24]
