| Big ships still sink, but my boat’s afloat
|
| Hands up high for the ones who knew
|
| I’ll get by for the ones I know
|
| With a drink up high for the ones I know
|
| And I’m standing tall
|
| The lights shine bright as stars, —
|
| — and I’m feeling like I might be one
|
| So tonight it’s on
|
| The drunk mind pens the poem, —
|
| — and the poem feels just like home
|
| Live blogging from the spot with some thoughts of granger.
|
| Puffing something strong enough to cure most cancer
|
| Shouts to world peace, and the shit we yearn for
|
| Sometimes I worry that we only hurry to earn more
|
| Sometimes I worry that we only hurry to hustle
|
| Forgetting why we love, and all this beautiful struggle
|
| Shouts to Talib and the poets with backpacks
|
| Graduate to Ray Bans, chains, and snap-backs
|
| Long as we backtrack, people can process
|
| Smoking that good life. |
| Look at that progress
|
| Two Tone Rebel, I can never say enough
|
| We fight the status quo when the status quo sucks
|
| So I’m balling in my own right. |
| Fighting that good fight
|
| Think I got a chance now. |
| Think I got my shit right
|
| Throwing knives in the air and hitting suckers
|
| I be finding angles on these chickens like Chuck is
|
| I got a story to tell. |
| My anxiety’s high
|
| So pass that Dutch 'till the feeling subsides
|
| Need illiteral high. |
| Need audible dope
|
| Those critical times I make audible smoke
|
| Let the audience go. |
| Let the lights get turned off
|
| Like I’m too grown for this shit like Murtaugh
|
| Lethal Weapon hecklers be fretting and oh dog
|
| Like I ain’t even sure what side to butter the toast on
|
| Robots can’t drink. |
| Robots can’t smoke
|
| And I ain’t fixing anything that ain’t been broke
|
| Two tokes is healthy. |
| In my lungs is hope
|
| One syllable lives. |
| One syllable croaks
|
| And I probably killed it on my on my tartan-clad shit
|
| Lighting up trees with the Green Eyed Bandit.
|
| Spit a couple bars for a large advance
|
| Harlem shake with these shakers 'till the cars is fast
|
| And I’m gone
|
| Do it big like Wallace
|
| If you don’t know the name keep quiet
|
| We going to do the mother-fucking knowledge
|
| Keep that shit modest
|
| Wonder where the bread’s like holler
|
| Even when the bread’s on notta
|
| Gotta pay those tolls
|
| So I be riding clean at the most
|
| Five man I’ll be giving the post
|
| Never seen a gift horse looking back at his mouth
|
| Gift of gab, so he might as well toast and let it marinate
|
| I don’t assume too soon. |
| I let it marinate
|
| It’s like an Olsen twin. |
| It’s like Mary Kate
|
| It’s like an Olsen twin who likes Mary Jane
|
| Even if we stumble, still bubble just like Perrier |
