Listen |
Listenin to strange fruit, Jay root and beirut |
Tryin to listen to Jesus its hard as fake boobs |
At times i stay tuned hear the bread break |
And grape juice and grey goose gossiple |
Prelude let it play through |
I’m listenin to Mr J Medeiros and Nicolay |
While I’m hearing drips of rain |
Hit against the window pane |
Hits on tape, hit parade 1968 |
When it plays i hear the bullets penetrate |
MLK, soul levitate |
When the plane starts to escalate |
Top gun, take my breath away |
Its time to press and play |
Drop the needle then step away |
Hear whats said off the record |
Before theres nothin left to say |
In my room listenin to sermon Gershwin, |
Earth wind, and fire |
Listenin to persons i admire |
Searchin for higher learnin like ice cube |
On i-tunes, listenin to grown men |
Rappin like it’s highschool |
Listenin to friends talk, hearin my pen stop |
Used to write first, now i try to listen then jot |
Listenin to pop like reddenbachs |
City to the boondocks |
Can’t you hear the games like a jukebox? |
Cause you gotta pay to play |
And theres no lay-away |
hearin from folks caught in real snares, no 808 |
Real talk, my vocals go and slay the tape |
I say it straight and never twice |
No fake delay |
Listen with the volume down, push the sound back |
If every lifes a movie all our soundtracks |
Sound like sound clash |
All our sounds bleeding in |
To each other no sound reasonin |
Stop, breathe again, listen |
Music is a great way to heal |
And a safe place to feel |
Trapped in this fake world |
A gateway to real |
It’s a great way to heal |
And a safe place to feel |
Trapped in this fake world |
A gateway to real |
Listenin to sounds in a space thats vacant |
Profound and deep, underground as basements |
And quiet as kept but i found it sacred |
A sage said silence is the sound of patience |
Listen |
