Rapping for Change |
He’s a sleek saunterer, street wanderer, steep ponderer |
Speech powerful, each honorer reaches down in a |
Deeper pocket for meager profits that keep him stockier |
Instead of pizza maybe this time he can beef & brocc it up |
Heat hot enough, speeding through in a sloppy rush |
Without a beatboxer to bop to, emcee-er shouts to them |
Respect to the beggars but never says ‘please drop some in' |
If ever he were desperate he’d get them to wish he’d rock again |
Your friendly neighborhood hip-hopper that needs to shop for stuff |
That cost him bucks but a lot of that tedious job is luck |
Thus, he never drops his cup or puts it down |
Or piddles when the sniffles come, the kid’ll gun with crooked rounds |
So he pushes sounds around bound to tourist towns |
As is his, after this he’ll hound another crowd |
And bust it proudly whether cloudy or the sun is out |
From the mouth he thrusts it loudly for the ones that’s round |
Something found underground where the yuppies drown |
Pure poetry that goes to sleep for upwards frowns |
Like his city that’s strikingly pretty |
Or hyper kiddies mighty giggly at night with their besties |
He might get busy for ciggies and a couple of pennies |
But he can’t help but wish he’d fill a bigger piggy |
Bank, but thanks though, I needed that… |
Sometimes I just wanna fly away |
And I will never touch the ground |
Maybe I will go to outer space |
And I will never come down |
Nah, never that |
He’ll just float like kush smoke push from throats |
While he cooks dope-esque hood quotes for «good folks» |
He should go 'cause this sure cold was foretold |
But he’s more broke so he roars notes for pure gold or stoges |
And that warm toke will warn most who mourn ghosts |
But that boy gloats with a hoarse hope |
Sorely spoken, the busker’s own curative potion |
Is pure emotion that touches them with furious devotion |
Wondering what all of them think |
Falls by the brink of destruction, he exalts what he sings |
To a level of impressiveness, their coins become his |
And whatever he expresses then will only be rich |
If, what a concept the lonliest wish |
Which, underlines scripts when longing for it |
Shesh, what the sky’ll do is draw in his chin |
To run a rhyme by slumbered minds and bring awe to these friends |
Single serving, wrinkled curr’ncy are some dollars he gets |
But simply perfect, him deserving never argues against |
Swiftly turning, gently swerving through the horrible mess |
That blends his purpose with a courage that gets bothered at best |
Yes, pair of double crosses guarding his chest |
So he’d say beware of double cross from others (from others) |
Pair of double crosses guarding his chest |
So he’d say beware of double cross from others |
Sometimes I just wanna fly away |
And I will never touch the ground |
Maybe I will go to outer space |
And I will never come down |
He blends in as part whilst standing out as different |
He feels the pain of his cohorts and in turn benefits |
A roaming heart, under only sky, yet home |
Millions of living-mates but he hates being alone |
Free, donuts at dawn, slightly stale and subtly wonderful |
He smiles while he cries, eating. |
It’s comfortable |
A loiterer legally relaxing on his porches |
To smoke some of what’s left in his collection of like four or six |
The mornings are hard, everyone’s on their way somewhere |
Away somewhere or already working in its warming start |
The metal of his coins are hot, palms sweat when he dumps them |
(If only they’d itch) plus some paper bills, something |
A cardboard sign wielding couple ask politely |
If he could spare a nickel towards their trouble, he denies them |
They hear his wrist wiggle to say he’s trying too, their eyes confused |
Framed so filth’ly, He’s ashamed, no guilty, but he can’t |
