m a drifter adrift a rift in the time space/
continuum continue on on my way/
thats the Hy way so theres no ors about it/
if ands or buts im up shits creek no oars around me/
the force abounds jedi red eye flight/
moon walk Anniken Skywalk an i might/
sky write with the jet stream/
an Hy been nice since the day i guess i meant to say nights of wet dreams/
they testin my seams i might bust at em/
fight scenes Bruce Jet or Spike Lee/
get me muy caliente get a muy thai knee/
since the boy Tiny no Zeus Lister/
its been a duel hy noon no truce mister/
not about the beef i aint common or fake/
its about what i dont say get it....../
the comments i make some outta frustration/
but im sleepless in seattle at the bus station/
i need a way out, i might take a grey hound/
pack up my bags an my lady hit hawaii an lei round/
face brown from the sun been around the sun/
26 times an i kno wat its like to waste time/
an that way aint mine anymore/
so much change my head is sore/
ill make do with small cake like a petit four/
quoth the raven nevermore but im a hawk brother/
wait til were all over the bread like hot butter/
theres so much more to life and notice i did not stutter/
buts its like i did how i had to relearn to speak/
it used to be u fucked up now its turn the cheek/
i dont let words come out if they could hurt the weak/
nobody's hard all the time it takes work to be/
our issue is firm leads to infirmary/
scar tissue needs to be massaged so convert with me/
converse with me no peace could hurt hercules/
shine a light cuz words is heavier than earths mercury certainly/
but they working me...so I'm working on it/
they hurriedly tryna manufacture perfect moments/
im laying back in the current searching the earth exploring/
an when the time comes ill be ready for it/
adapt and realize i miss my kin/
feel attacked and understand acceptance starts within/
my heart brims when i think about what i have/
what I've lost what I've never known come right back/
its always there as a lump in my throat/
i could hang myself with it or start jumping this rope/
i double dutch been in trouble much many times/
i crossed my eyes dotted my xl tees an crossed plenty lines/
fitted low thug attitude like fuck yall/
now in my head to everyone i see i love yall/
years frowning drowning in tears never let fall/
got a spring in my step its magic like presto/
the trick is be in the moment and let go/
put your Chi into the bass like the Deftones/
im so alive broadcasting from the deadzone/
so twilight/
an you don't have to follow me to see the hylights/
I'm just trying to put together things from my life/
theres pyrite or shine bright/
you not sure I'm Nasir with my mic/
fans jonesin for that all around factor/
you can see the bones I've made like a compound fracture/
i been around in the booth with my bredren/
my city can see the method to my madness like redman/
nonchalant flow molasses and deadpan/
the ambience grows Jackie Onassis when heads blam/
ima crawl up out the car before the feds can/
stop pull us over leave us leaking like a sweatband/
yes ma'am i go on like a game of chess can/
but every word dropped in a plot and a complex plan/
sike i just channel it and ride the beat/
you can have the dot com love ill take some comraderie/
optometry vision clear solid peek/
I'm the Dali Llama when rhyming holla for shaman speak but i might be...
