Love Letters
The drum is never the enemy of the pen But when I'm meeting mentally with beat and melody then One of me can turn into ten of me If there's ten of me, tell me how many heavenly similes can we blend? Like women and men would fall with no friends Like a rose would fall with no stem Like most folks follow trends Like Os follow LMNs That's how well I know life flows with the elements As sunrise kills an evening As stars die and a night sky is grieving As man sees what he has when it's leaving You gone is as asthma to breathing That's how much I need you in my life I'm never gonna ever leave you in my lifetime Cause every time I hear line? that shows me I'm not alone it's saving me Cause I know that that's a lifeline Like minds—this is our home and they won't ruin it easily Cause the wolf is gonna blow until he's blue in the cheek And me and you and the crew can go take a snooze in the street And the bulldozer can come chew on our feet We never let em through We'll build a levy Limit the river's level Steady the flood and begin with a pebble Lend me one syllable SongtexteCome if you're ready to shovel Run if you're shaking But I know that today is not my Waterloo You've made a place where I'm welcome And although I give voice to it seldom Know I love you Nobody's above you And if you love someone then you tell them Every day the planet's losing IQ points But people still bumping Ice Cube joints So I've got hope And every day I'm seeking my true voice? and looking up at a bright new choice Cause everybody's got a hustle and everyone's trying to push it It's tricky to find the kush hiking up a mountain of bullshit And there's another mountain of bullshit next to it littered with glitter, money And strippers they're selling as good shit It's nothing new up at the core though Everything same as it's always been only more so Of course so same token, while there's life there is truth While there's truth it demands to be spoken And someone's gonna speak it It's really ?not a secret You just need to search it You just need? to seek it And though we like to worship a genius? in a coffin We often forget that there's prophets among us walking And I know because I hear em when I am ?in the clouds And I got my music up and jamming it loud And dammit whatever I am or could ever become? I'm positive that I will Always be a fan in the crowd So gimme gimme gimme Dylan and Biggy Hit me with Jimi, Emily Dickinson, Eminem, Niki Giovanni Lennon, Kendrick, Gambino, Rafa, Chinaka, Dahlak and Missy,?Saul and Beau and Paul and Kweli, Chali 2na and Chance and Seneca (Go in poet!) 86 I was thrown in the mix, saying (Go in poet!) 86 anyone who would stand in the path of a kid saying (Go in poet!) 86 bitches, 86 cups full of lean (Go in poet!) 86 bars, infinity ways to say what I mean You've made a place where I'm welcome And although I give voice to it seldom Know I love you Nobody's above you And if you love someone then you tell them So if you're blocking the future I wanna to walk toward Suit yourself we're gonna lock swords But it's a wash if you're saying “Watsky ?I could rock withcha if you didn't talk Like some nails on a chalkboard I can tell—that you're really on your dope writer tip But you'll trip if you don't try to fit Maybe you can make it if you ghostwrite a hit And sell it to somebody who can ghostride ?a whip” Shieeet—I say no sirree I can smell the weak shit through the potpourri So I'm just gonna do what I do You take a minute or two and Google “Tim and Magoo” I love the that life I picked even if it ain't plush I'm too glad complain much I'm in the lab in a drab world While these fuckers dab and do dabs and I dab on my pad with my paintbrush This is for the kids whipping up some home-cooked Spitting 86 bars, fuckin no hook Lying in the grass Passion their chest And a ballpoint pressed in their notebook Listen to me, this is for the word Looking ?so fine ?I'm rubbing coconut oil up in the crack of? that spine This is for the times I'm reminded my mind isn't mine alone This is for the poems and the lines (And the letters in em) (Go in poet!) 86 I was thrown in the mix, saying (Go in poet!) 86 anyone who would stand in the path of a kid saying (Go in poet!) 86 bitches, 86 cups full of lean (Go in poet!) 86 bars, infinity ways to say what I mean You've made a place where I'm welcome And although I give voice to it seldom Know I love you Nobody's above you And if you love someone then you tell them Aus Songtexte Mania
