Abandon Ronin. Walking the path while I
Meditate zoning. Still spitting with or
Without a microphone in the winds of change. Whistling a
Familiar tone in world full of industrial
Clones. Demolition my mission. Inspired by a
Premonition. My code of ethics to neither ask
Permission or forgiveness I give this. Receive it or not.
Fucks not included believe it or not. I’m a
Know it’s dope regardless of you thinking it’s hot. Poet’s
Poets quote this artists artistry like a pot calling the
Pot black and beautiful from streets to stream the stuff of
Nightmares fuels the fruition of dreams ever
Careful of my wishes well versed in the ways of the
Waves as tides turn still waters be knowing things aint
Always what they seem gift and a curse a limo or
Herse a thousand pictures a word a chapter a verse. You see?
I paint a picture in your mind with each rhyme
I paint a picture in your mind with each rhyme
I paint a picture in your mind with each rhyme
I paint a picture in your mind with each rhyme
I paint a picture in your mind with each rhyme
A stubborn samurai stalling his seppuku
Searching for solutions in the math like sudoku No
Point in Hara-kiri. It’s not time for the fat lady to
Play Mariah Carey. I might be down a couple runs and
Yeah, it’s kind of scary. But I aint even stretching to the
Sounds of Harry Carey it’s not even the seventh. It
Might just be the sabbath. The rest before my genesis. I’m
Chilling in the lab with a light and it’s good. See my
Way through the labyrinth until it’s understood. That
My amazing grace is frankly Frankie Beverly. I
Wish you happy feelings. I’m feeling like Jordan was
Right the roof is the closest to the ceiling.
So we could be the most high we supposed to be. You
Catch my double drift... Contact with
Or without a spliff the stimulants supposedly.
Activating that which you are already composed of see...
I paint a picture in your mind with each rhyme
I paint a picture in your mind with each rhyme
I paint a picture in your mind with each rhyme
I paint a picture in your mind with each rhyme
