Fear The Labour |
I don’t fear the labour |
Check the dirt beneath the finger nails |
Sweat stained shirt, and amnesia when talking the word fail |
You can’t feign the fame |
Yet they fan the flame so i train my brain / in the tiger snake and crane / the |
more wisdom, the less gained |
If measured down to the change |
The kind that jingles in your pocket |
And that which rings within yourself (?) |
During the evenings, around sunset, i get flashes from past memories |
Serves up a slideshow, like a wide eyed nocturnal rain forest creature |
Old country kid in the city for the very first time, i’m hypnotized by the soft |
glow |
In my mind’s silver screen, ready to sit back and recognize the sequence of |
events, that led me here |
Although the way they’re presented will play like a dream |
Surreal as a painted desert |
Condemned to wander, through as an immortal, accompanied by nothing other than |
my footprints |
You can only make so many before the storms form and erase the way that you came |
Forced to do it again |
Come take a trip, down memory lane |
My? |
more like a pot-hole riddled highway, divided into four sections |
Save social business and stay with it, and these potholes i’m down to fix it |
I don’t fear the labor, check the dirt beneath the finger nails |
Sweat stained shirt, and memory lapse when it comes to the meaning of fail |
You can’t feign the fame, game is to train my brain in the tiger snake and crane |
Incase i got to fend off them raps, snap like bear traps, besides that |
It’s a better form of meditation than other methods i’m aware of |
And deserves my dedication |
Even when I’m not makin records i aid in my music’s preservation |
Exercising vigilance |
Watching for poachers and posers |
Supposedly could be the opposition |
Listen |
That’s the sound when i drop words to rhythm |
Nod in my direction, we going this way |
Been collected to help correct the foul play |
Our magnetism will leave your compass in disarray |
(disarray) |
Intuition; |
into telepathy |
When we speak, you imagine me |
Act like I’m talking |
That voice in your head has my accent |
Indistinguishable (low rumbleee) |
I’d whisper work it for the world |
Hurled through space at the speed of speech, blast off! |
Lookin like a slacker, wander like a prophet, labeled as a rapper for lack of, |
something else to call it |
I tend to return myself to the cycle upon his request (?) |
But best when i’m at my worst like an alcoholic |
No longer faultered |
By the force |
And not opposed, to thinkin awkward |
Beamin off on a random uncharted course, like a lost photon caravan |
Seeking a retina, still attached to a person to validate my excursion |
I’m just another incarnation of you, that’s the reason we can move to this in |
unison |
And if you choose |
Find a leader to take me to |
