Poetics 12

Verse 1:

I can't keep going on throughout life with these delusions 

How long does it take for the rain to get in when you're roofless?

Misconstrued by the nuisance but I just wanna (Live my Life)

Live it right, live it like the master of the higher purpose not the servant 

That's Higher being work I refer Gurdjeff, St. Bhudda, Martin Luther, but no lucifer he’s Kreugered up tryna say (I live my life) For you and us 

But Question 

If Jesus Christ was imprisoned for parables he was kicking

Then how the fuck would I expect for you to listen

To me

Dismiss em cause I'm quite gifted 

And still they try to diminish with a couple disses and

Fuck a hot hand cause you get subbed with a couple misses 

Married my logic but intuition the mistress 

Minajed with hope had both in my home tisk tisk

Ashamed I say but I get away every time I seek the deep rooted 

The roots dig deep 

The roots dig deep 

Coiled in this speech huh  

Every time I speak 

Youth in my spirit music my child care 

I'm psychotic 

So I'll write this shit 

Before I see psychiatrist 

How does it feel? 

When your same age cousins are copping houses 

And you still live near the projects 

How is this real? 

Nah I'm good they're dope as fuck 

Excuse me but this music makes me wanna open up 

I told you 

I don't want money to cop a Bentley

I need money to shop at whole foods 

This shit is crazy 

When all that's around you are narrow options 

Alcohol or food filled with neurotoxins 

And don't put me in a box as if I'm conscious 

I love wine 

It's justified because of antioxidants I'm sick as shit 

You ever heard of paretos law? Well is you did then that 80 percent I never say at all 

So watch me as I break it down like an autopsy

Then face paint the tainted face so photoshopy-

Ish I'm sick as shit and I said that line before dog 

Consider this an hybrid of Warhol and Kweli Guevara and ghandi Jordan and Ali 

And jigga man with his left hand sawed off so I can put a bazooka On the bitch I'm letting off metaphors 

That's mega rap in the South Bronx 

And as for love 

I think I found my precious stone 

Fuck a bad bone She more like a back bone someone you can build with grow with and last long

That's all that I ask for now

Can I (live my life) the fuck don't worry who I love

See all my friends have babies 

But still bumping all the single ladies 

That reveals something 

1. Their love was lust 

2. It was an impulsive fuck 

And Niggas don't strap it up that shit is crazy 

The same dudes who claim to be Jesus when knocking boots 

Huh I think it's time to redefine what it means to have a seed and if you need some guidance then just watch me (live my life) 

Hard to be 

Hard to be funny 

I'm too serious they ask me where my humor went. 

I Wear my heart on my sleeve I think that's humorous 

With my late tendencies I swear even my über dips 

Call the dispatcher like "where the fuck he went" 

Aye GPS take me to stress free street 

Goddamit I left my equipment at home 

Can't jab at these issues unpadded 

These memories are permanent

I'll leave my skin untatted 

And I think about shit like this on average about 10 -11 times a day 

I swear my mind is scattered 

Put puzzles in my tomb but But back to humor 

It's funny how people need spectacles to show respect for you

Humble be humble even though the fake standing next to you 

That marketing power of the aisle with the shitty cereals 

Versus that quite section of the vegetables 

Stop thinking so much you're so serious don't let it get to you 

Well technically it gets to me to get to this confession booth 

And that's the truth 

I'm Intune with my inner song 

Poetics 12

Well 

Come sing along sing to the lord and say 

Bridge/Outro 

X6

I don't wanna give in don't give in don't give in to 

To all the sins all the sins all the sins, lord

I just wanna (live my life)
