Of course, I speak for those who toss a dime
let it fall to be a quarter on time
making it before they tear their eyes
it's hard to express when dumb ask why
yo' potential is crypto expression is hip so
how you got tipped by tha man that bids low
sellin' expression wit fashion, I mention cashin'
you celeb on paper, sweat for depression
in attics fanatic, basements for agents
try to kneel to tha big dome's waist 'n
for tha perspectives as crossover
crossover cross....over

LIFE 'N PERSPECTIVES OF A GENUINE CROSSOVER II

Picture a crossover at 1.30 nocturnal
drowning in mindgames, an sl might turn all
grooves that move, 'n quench a thirst stronger
minds grips words, throats growls of hunger
chill, kill off wit' sips o' j. walker
huh, this kid stays a talker
information o' background many ground
sprouted elements how I sound now
crossover, born raised beatlish
seventies rock that shock interlard with lyrics
b-boyish attitude, straight up men on tubes
don't try to add some tits to this dude
don't take it as a feud, if this brother keeps thinkin'
80 percent of yo mentallers keep sminkin'
a lotta avon-revlon, new jack b-boy step on
but never try to crap on tha crossover
crossover, crossover, cross....over

LIFE 'N PERSPECTIVES OF A GENUINE CROSSOVER III

Be on guard for pencilpush bacteriae
established mind disease, some music is inferior
bumped shoved cuffed away as retrospective
whadda ya expect if 80 percent of rock is old
lovin' rock shovin' lots a dimes in the jukebox baby
waited till it shocked but never rocked baby
better drop drums that pumps 'n throbs adrenaline
through hearts, get soul babes dance with me maybe
musically, mentally, causin' difficulties
when ya blend differ with all cults see
hard to say, we're pop core trash or hop
play tha wax o'-shacks-o' culture clash heads bop
drop tha glass onion, orthodox fossil critic
yo mind is like yo ass narrow
why musicians dilute with tha rapper
why they throw tha sweet away with tha wrapper

LIFE 'N PERSPECTIVES OF A GENUINE CROSSOVER IV

crossover
crossover
cross.......over

From boston to seattle, they dug tha battle
struggle for jive, watch 'em chains rattle
a wagin' slave is an artist that paved a path
to be picked by critics that get raved
snotty-nose artist to be enslaved
victim in the do re mi trade
neglect contracts, little inscriptions
monster music cartel give direction
do re mi fa so songs mainstream attraction
socalled purist, a bandwagonist 'n stepped in
bring tha core, in a roll like rollins
industry I wanna be, true friendship I'm callin'
built this garden, 
like kravitz mindbrothers are with it
no matter music, brothers in bizniz
hall-o'-fame domain, be real, picture me
realistically, I'm filled 'n signed temporarily
think I'm large ? brother please !
check my fridge, bread, water, cheese.

these are the perspectives
of a crossover
