[00:10.929][Verse 1: Navy Blue]
[00:13.054]All the moments spent cryin', I was meant to laugh
[00:15.711]The past don't hurt as much as it did
[00:17.883]I'm intact
[00:18.742]Dishonorable syntax
[00:20.711]Just tryna cope
[00:21.524]I had a head full of smoke
[00:23.430]And a stomach where the gin sat
[00:25.024]Imagine if I didn't rap
[00:27.477]I'm grateful for the gift of gab
[00:29.086]Articulate the brake then let a wave crash
[00:31.476]The place I put my pain at
[00:33.654]The place I let it rain at
[00:35.873]Where the fleetin' feelin's ain't facts
[00:37.780]This a transmutation of a same man
[00:40.200]Flyin' through the outer-realm and prayin' for a safe landin'
[00:44.186]My kinda grace-candies
[00:46.311]And Sage managed
[00:47.638]To make it out alive and live a life of great standards
[00:50.560]My head spinin' like a breakdancer
[00:53.763]With all my problems in question, I got the same answers
[00:57.044]I meander
[00:58.107]The path zig-zaggin' like a jack-o-lantern
[01:00.841]My innerlight relyin' on my candor
[01:03.513]To make the expedition, gotta plan first
[01:05.967]I had the premonitions, grippin', grimace 'til my hands hurt
[01:09.201]All that petty banter
[01:11.138]When I was busy kickin' cans
[01:13.029]Young, black, gifted like the Panthers
[01:16.313]Past life regressions at a glance
[01:18.169]I speak the language of the heart
[01:19.801]Those who seek it understand
[01:21.956]I trust it, where I'm meant to be is where I am
[01:24.659]Spirit led me through the ash and left impressions in the sand
[01:25.499]
[01:26.815][Verse 2: Earl Sweatshirt]
[01:28.769]Swift on my toes, stick with me
[01:30.925]Pick up the tempo and pulse, the Ninja blender, spin 'em until they pulp
[01:34.645]Unfiltered, the Britta broken
[01:36.831]Bruh, bet it had a cup spillin'
[01:38.690]His missus won't give up or go
[01:41.128]Tough titty, the whole
[01:42.455]It took a toll on 'em mental to never switch up, but still want different results
[01:47.035]Sisyphus liftin' a load
[01:48.691]It's a slippery slope
[01:50.143]The boulder big and wide
[01:51.472]Aloha- I mean goodbye and hello
[01:53.065]Thin Lizzy, the boys back in town, the villagers know
[01:56.316]Sin City, local, kiss the ground
[01:58.190]I've been here before
[01:59.284]Sittin' pretty, I'm the one who manufactured the storm
[02:02.831]Advantage me, I broke the tie, we had to move on
[02:05.753]Answer me please, I had his baba cast me the stone
[02:11.691]The animal ain't screamin', we slashed 'em
[02:13.859]My daddy went home
[02:14.921]Snatched out of sleep
[02:16.092]Shattered dreams, they crash in the mornin'
[02:18.250]Gotta keep the brief, the liturgy, it had to be poems
[02:23.656]Hm, hm, hm
[02:24.516]
[02:24.782][Outro: Robin Williams]
[02:27.547]We don't read and write poetry 'cause it's cute
[02:31.266]We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race
[02:35.609]And the human race is filled with passion
[02:40.969]And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits are necessary to sustain life, but poetry: beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for
