The drum is the enemy of the pen But when I'm meeting mentally with and melody then One of me can into ten of me If there's ten of me, tell me how heavenly similes can we blend? Like women and men fall with no friends Like a rose would fall no stem Like most folks follow Like Os follow That's how well I know life with the elements As kills an evening As stars die and a sky is grieving As man sees what he has when it's You gone is as asthma to That's how much I you in my life I'm never ever leave you in my lifetime Cause every I hear line
that shows me I'm not alone it's saving me Cause I know that's a lifeline minds—this is our home and they won't ruin it easily Cause the wolf is gonna blow he's blue in the cheek And me and you and the can go take a snooze in the street And the bulldozer can chew on our feet We never let em We'll build a the river's level Steady the and begin with a pebble Lend me one if you're ready to shovel Run if you're But I that today is not my Waterloo
You've a place where I'm welcome And although I give to it seldom Know I you above you And if you love someone then you them
Every day the planet's losing IQ But still bumping Ice Cube joints So got hope And every day I'm seeking my true voice
and looking up at a bright new Cause got a hustle and everyone's trying to push it It's tricky to find the kush hiking up a mountain of And there's another mountain of next to it littered with glitter, money And strippers they're as good shit nothing new up at the core though Everything same as it's been only more so Of course so same token, while there's there is truth While there's truth it to be spoken And someone's speak it It's
not a secret You just to search it You need
to seek it And though we like to worship a a coffin We often forget that there's among us walking And I know because I hear em I am
in the clouds And I got my music up and it loud And dammit whatever I am or could become
I'm positive that I will be a fan in the crowd So gimme gimme Dylan and Hit me Jimi, Emily Dickinson, Eminem, Niki Giovanni Lennon, Kendrick, Gambino, Rafa, Chinaka, Dahlak and Missy,
Saul and Beau and Paul and Kweli, Chali 2na and Chance and Seneca
(Go in poet) 86 I was in the mix, saying (Go in poet) 86 anyone who would in the path of a kid saying (Go in poet) 86 bitches, 86 cups of lean (Go in poet) 86 bars, ways to say what I mean
You've made a place where I'm And although I voice to it seldom I love you Nobody's you And if you love someone then you tell
So if you're blocking the I wanna to walk toward Suit we're gonna lock swords But a wash if you're saying "Watsky
I could rock withcha if you didn't talk Like some on a chalkboard I can tell, that you're on your dope writer tip But you'll trip if you try to fit Maybe you can make it if you a hit And it to somebody who can ghostride
a whip" I say no sirree I can smell the weak through the potpourri So I'm just gonna do I do You a minute or two and Google "Tim and Magoo" I love the that life I even if it ain't plush I'm too complain much I'm in the lab in a drab these fuckers dab and do dabs and I dab on my pad with my paintbrush This is for the whipping up some home-cooked Spitting 86 bars, no hook Lying in the Passion chest And a ballpoint pressed in notebook Listen to me, is for the word Looking
so
I'm rubbing coconut oil up in the crack of
dat spine This is for the times I'm reminded my mind mine alone This if for the poems and the (And the in em)
(Go in poet) 86 I was thrown in the mix, (Go in poet) 86 anyone who would in the path of a kid saying (Go in poet) 86 bitches, 86 cups of lean (Go in poet) 86 bars, infinity to say what I mean
You've made a place where I'm And although I give voice to it I love you Nobody's you And if you love then you tell them
