The Individualist |
There was a time when I couldn’t bust a rhyme |
Had yet to hit my prime |
'Cause my mind was such a young mind |
And first you got to unwind |
The mystery of your soul, it’s like a black hole |
The gravity is too thick |
You got to learn to lighten up a bit |
It’s such a frightening thing to realize |
Every time you close your eyes |
You been cut down to size |
'Cause you’re stuck with yourself |
Ain’t nobody else to compare yourself to |
It’s just you |
And then you ask yourself, «What's it all about?» |
So you try to figure it out |
And that’s when you’ll be tempted to believe foolish things |
And deceive yourself by lettin' someone else |
Do your thinkin' for you |
When they haven’t got a clue |
But you can’t relive the hype, don’t ya see? |
'Cause I got a special answer meant just for me |
Somewhere in my immediate vicinity |
And if there’s time enough to get it |
Then in time I’m gonna get it |
'Cause I am the Individualist |
Check my references |
Wherever you are now you know I been there, done that |
Don’t need to sling the scat 'cause my resume' is too fat |
Change my name to some funky fresh dingbat |
Like «the artist formerly known as TR-i» |
I got to laugh when they try to figure out what it’s all about |
And they doubt that I’m so devout |
But it’s something I can do without |
I got to know why I wanna know what I wanna know |
Why do I go where the others won’t go? |
My eye is on the prize that’s in disguise |
That you can only theorize, but I can utilize |
To rise above the lies about reality |
'Cause you can’t relive the hype don’t ya see? |
'Cause I got a special answer meant just for me |
Somewhere in my immediate vicinity |
And if there’s time enough to find it |
Then in time I’m gonna find it |
'Cause I am the Individualist |
Here comes the Individualist |
Yes I am, the Individualist |
