//INTRO.iiviivix
Thirty years it's been happening,
zapping in front of my own eyes
y'all guys need to listen,
I'm rapping in new lines
sometimes I'm tired,
been there I done that
quick nap on a train ride,
same sights, same flights
I'm keen for a new map,
Can't remember how to fold this one
//VERSE.i
I seen the sun rise three times in a day,
no polar shift it was just me at play,
I'm god in my way, got in my own way,
eleven thousand days and got this to say,
rays of sunshine is life worth living I may
spend it all, give it all away,
start from scratch and fade
into the void of darkness
boxed like a matchstick waiting to be lit,
new colour in my flame, fiery blue,
represents the higher me true,
wake up as a champ
water plants, gotta pee, gotta poop
routine life got roots they chant.
Speaking to the flowers,
got powers in minds that
go and just devour in time
//HOOK.i
you feeling me? I'm just expressing
maybe messing with the fabrics of time,
iron it out, its fine.
gossip over wine,
speaking randomly in ryhmes
to symbolise my life,
one thought leads to another,
next minute you're far from you mother,
think you got it all covered
ticking off the bucket list
I must admit it's rather kitsch,
arty life style, professional twist
visiting places
I been there before.
//VERSE.ii
I Read the pages with a closed mind
educated by the grape vine
hung up to dry on a clothes line
hills hoist so I spun dryed
hot sun made my brain fried
dizzy, but I still shined,
following all of lifes signs,
flashes right, tapping my inner eye
zapping sacred traits into life,
sometimes I'm binded,
like a book with no pages,
just a spine with two covers,
like my stories hiatus,
mindful of haters,
but the pens in my hand,
so my life's what I make it,
they say it is written,
the author is in us, yo
that's for beginners, yo
publish the winners, yo
bag up the sinners, go
play it out with out thinking about it,
how did I get here shouldn't be doubted,
It's my own route and proud of it man
stand on top of house and scream it out to the land.
Let me live my own plan
//HOOK.out
you feeling me? I'm just expressing
maybe messing with the fabrics of time,
iron it out, its fine.
gossip over wine,
speaking randomly in ryhmes
to symbolise my life,
one thought leads to another,
next minute you're far from you mother,
think you got it all covered
ticking off the bucket list
I must admit it's rather kitsch,
arty life style, professional twist
visiting places
I been there before.
Places I know
i missed then saw
now I can say,
I been there before
Places I know
i missed then saw
now I can say,
I been there before
I Been there before
I Been there before
Been there before
Been there before
Been there before
Been there before
Been there before
Been there before
Been there before
Been there before
