| Light as a feather when I'm floating through
|
| Reading through the daily news
|
| Measuring the hurt within the golden rule
|
| Centimetres of ether, I'm heating the speaker
|
| Motivational teacher with words that burn people
|
| Seeing the headlines lined with discord
|
| It's either genocide or the planet in uproar
|
| Never good. |
| The rules of paradise are never nice
|
| The best laid plans of Mice and Men are never right
|
| I'm just a Vagabond with Flowers for Algernon
|
| An Average Joe who knows what the fuck is going on
|
| It's the hope of my thoughts that I travel upon
|
| Fly like an arrow of God until I'm gone, so I'm
|
| Drifting away like a feather in air
|
| Letting my words take me away from the hurt and despair
|
| So I'm keeping it vertical forever elevator
|
| Riding the escalator to the something that is greater, so I'm
|
| Drifting away like a feather in air
|
| Letting my soul take me away from the hurt and despair
|
| So I'm keeping it vertical forever elevator
|
| Riding the escalator to the something that is greater
|
| Taking chances, word tap dancing with wolves
|
| In an ice arena out there, deep in the woods of
|
| Arizona, the sun be high, life's ironic
|
| Ain't trying to be Dalí when I write surreal life
|
| I paint it vivid, habitat crazy insane
|
| Watch the propaganda six o'clock news and it's saying
|
| Cultures clash, for black folk and white trash
|
| They revel in the cyberspace that might crash, dash
|
| To millennium a million miles of running
|
| At the speed of now back, don't return gunning
|
| Rambo style, gung ho child gunning
|
| Ammo blao two times loud stunning
|
| Stunning, when I hit ya, lift you off the Earth like
|
| Ayo, take you right back to birth and
|
| Niggas wonder why, they might wonder why
|
| This shit might happen but it does, they go
|
| Drifting away like a feather in air
|
| Letting my words take me away from the hurt and despair
|
| So I'm keeping it vertical forever elevator
|
| Riding the escalator to the something that is greater, so I'm
|
| Drifting away like a feather in air
|
| Letting my soul take me away from the hurt and despair
|
| So I'm keeping it vertical forever elevator
|
| Riding the escalator to the something that is greater
|
| Treat you better than me, cause that's the heavenly key
|
| To unlock the inner strength where my essence will be
|
| It's the knowledge of self, understanding of the things around me
|
| That becomes the wisdom that I need
|
| Living this life to the best of my ability
|
| Channeling energy to my thoughts into your symmetry
|
| Remember me, because my prose remain gold
|
| I got the gift of gab like them pimps in Kangol
|
| It never ends, I keep it ruling like a cypher
|
| The first caveman bringing fire
|
| Innovating and higher; |
| to blast mistakes I raise the stakes
|
| It's double or nothing in this vaccuumless space
|
| I will, survive, divine the time to cry
|
| Fuck a hold or hide, I'm alive with pride
|
| And I drove the Chevy to the Levy
|
| But the Levy was dry, singing "This will be the day that I die" |
