My mind speaks mathematics

Sometimes I feel english is a poor translation of my hearts palpations

That's why I give it to you quarter notes at a time

So that my rhymes are aided by body gyrations

But now it's like each hymn ain't nothing but a word with--

Countless synonymns where should I begin with them?

Every +sentence+ is a jail bid

locking me in to +bars+ of meaning with so much space between them

And it's all real

If I took a little bit of time

to reflect on the unreal my brain might peel off my mind

To reveal this pegasus spree well

whole-sale fairytale echo in a conch shell

But why say it if you can't see it?

I can call it abstract and say take what you want from it

I could do that all day till my tongue goes numb from it

but see what good will come from it?

I got something to say, I can't run from it

I gotta confront it.  I can't watch while this...

Music that taught me so much as a child

grows louder every day but the world grows dumb from it

So every line that I draw from my pen

it shapes a letter that makes a word that feeds a verse

A swim for home, a place for infinite styles

but it feels like 9000 miles

So I...



[stroke] Through Atlantic

[stroke] Through the Pacific

[stroke] Through the Indian

[stroke] Through the Arctic

[stroke] Through the cold current

[stroke] Through the warm current

[stroke] To the fare in the foul for 9000 miles

[stroke] Like your swimming from the sharks and the slave ships

[stroke] From a suicide jump to a brave trip

[stroke] Like you see shore line in the distance

[stroke] Like if you don't, you'll drown any instance



So here we are again

the same space in mind but now we in a different place at a different time

A different taste to a different rhyme

with so many flavors to embrace, I can't waste a line

So I'm going for self with no hesitation

cause my-- self expression is my self preservation

My skills pay bills to fulfill my will to do for others what I do for myself

Like motivation through verses as if it was a virtual conversation

on the pros and the cons of a real situation

Inspired by my knowledge of self determination

to ease the frustrations of miseducations

This wise god music from I takin your eye

from trials and tribulations to kingdom in the patience

This wide hallpath is beaten by beats

made from good vibrations passed down for generations

on a...



[stroke] Through Atlantic

[stroke] Through the Pacific

[stroke] Through the Indian

[stroke] Through the Arctic

[stroke] Through the cold current

[stroke] Through the warm current

[stroke] To the fare in the foul for 9000 miles

[stroke] Like your swimming from the sharks and the slave ships

[stroke] From a suicide jump to a brave trip

[stroke] Like you see shore line in the distance

[stroke] Like if you don't, you'll drown any instance



I get hyped. I get home at night. I get a beat in my head

I get my book to write, I get writers block

I get so stressed that I get dope rhymes from it, just to get rest

I get frustrated from this old world mess

So when I got to get the bad air out my chest

I get on the mic and strive to be the best

But it's not just the flow, There's more to the test

I gotta spit like there's no time to waste

Spit like I can't take away this life taste

Spit for rebellion, spit for resistance

Spit for accuracy, spit for distance

I can't just spit that shit you could market

Even though I know we got the same target

And I can't just spit that old rhetoric

I gotta spit what's ten steps ahead of it

I gotta spit for the life of my kids

And not just the next meal for my next deal

I feel like these rhymes could shape tommorow

So they could walk through it with a little less sorrow

I gotta spit out the mouth these protections

and stick and move these lines for perfection

I gotta spit shit no one ever thought of

Spit like Imma choke on the salt water

When I...



[stroke] Through Atlantic

[stroke] Through the Pacific

[stroke] Through the Indian

[stroke] Through the Arctic

[stroke] Through the cold current

[stroke] Through the warm current

[stroke] To the fare in the foul for 9000 miles

[stroke] Like your swimming from the sharks and the slave ships

[stroke] From a suicide jump to a brave trip

[stroke] Like you see shore line in the distance

[stroke] Like if you don't, you'll drown any instance
