Came and Went (Sunday Anthem)

goodTogo's Notes
this started as a poem (half the 1st verse that i had) and one day my friend played me this beat he found (the deadbeats). So i started rapping the poem over it and as it went on continued to freestyle it.
did a few takes, took my fav lines out the freestyles and found the story i kept retelling and got a pretty nice beach song.
Verse 1: i'm a citizen/ slash denizen/
of the night/self prescribed/ "levitate to new heights"/ medicine/
let's be frank/ i've spent some bank/ on being a resident/
it's never the mind blank/ i'm tanked/ prevalence/
i'm more/ diving deeper towards/ swimming to the shore/ of inner relevance/
i wish i could show you on my etch a sketch/
but the catch/
is you had to be there to see myself reflect/
i'm so introspect/ with no intellect/
so i find myself riding down the street/ chasing my own beats/
but its kinda hard when you learning how to speak/
in a rhythm more unique/
you know i'm on a trip and i'm right about to peak/
i see the world, i see the light/
i see them girls all dressed tight/ sundress, sun bright/
so i'm itchin' and i'm leaving and i'm headin' to the sand/
girl come with me, go and take my hand/ take my hand/
Verse 2: so i'm back on my bike/ and i'm riding while it's light/
yeah, you know my type/ type survived last night/
i rose out my coma/ recording on Roycroft, sleeping on Loma/
yeah you smell the aroma/ it's me, i'm the shit/
about to spit/ about to get/ a few new levels that you haven't even reached yet/
about to breach/ the heat/
i'm on the beach/
lazy sunday afternoon, i ain't ready for the new week/
a cyclist/ who rides a swift/ into the wide abyss/
rival this/ eyes will twists/ as my tire spins/
i inspire grins/ to the folks who walk by/
freer then the birds, now let our whole flock fly/
i'm on the latitude/ dude i got the gratitude/
you, you got your attributes/ the proofs in my attitude/
the first to smile/ the girl when you search the aisle/
you'll find me the most versatile/ you know i'm dialed/ in/
to the wind/ and i still got that big grin/
oh no, the afternoon's about to go and end/
not now, cause i feel like i just made a dent/
so in this last hour let's enjoy one ten (110)/ percent/
where'd the day go? it just came and went/
