Welcome to the soul system, funky side of the moon
shoot for the moon, land on stars, ya' mean...
Verse:
I live life to the fullest every minute always
push it to the limits put my heart and soul in it
I don't just bare and grin it I throw king hit kinetics
connecting to your mind you would swear that I just read it
Tear the world open 'cause I wanna see within it
runnin' in this race knowing that I'll never win it
but I gotta finish man it's just how I do my business
all I got I give it every minute is infinite
Verse:
You see back in high school I hated hip hop and English
'cause no one ever explained what it meant to be a linguist
not so gifted more motivated and lifted
I bet they never thought that I'd grow up to be a lyricist
But here I am on stage bringing it to ya'll
there's no room up on this page so I'm writing on the wall
one day it will fade but the message will live on,
this lion be out the cage here to bring it to ya' raw
A word to all the shorties don't forget the pioneers
'cause they laid the stage before me so that I could be right here
their poems and their stories that would wipe away my fears
but more importantly they brought the music to my ears
The cycle is repeating throughout histories eternity
the wonderland mystery but who can reach the key
trying to find an answer while the door handle is mocking me
then washed away into the flood of everything eventually
Verse:
These words are my blessing I confess them to the masses
rest them on your soul, invest them in the chances
that I'll grow wings one day use the left to beat the fascist
born to be a savage I won't live my life passive
Every single thought's another step that we have grow
and every single step's another closer to the unknown
with music in my ears, I never to walk alone
new teacher in the old school graffin' up the catacombs
Even the greatest concept is never really permanent
and no one can see further than a single moment
I meditation on instruments key chord elements the
vowels and consonants that bring us to atonement
In the darkness I try to walk the line but my
thought crime addiction makes it hard to unwind
I be making magic while others are watching prime time
and when life hits the rocks, I cut myself a fresh, lime.
