From a crooked cottage on the hill, I can see tomorrow's rain Rumble through destiny, Down a Sleepy Hollow lane If we're all merely players In a play on this great stage The problem is the script writers Ain't on the same page
I echo through the mountain When I'm singing in the air From my lab, A lad with lavish lyrics, Living in his lair
I just write in my haven, Set the challenge so to speak Recite it to my raven Like Edgar Allan Poe-try I've been serving gems, With a thin swerving pen Transcribe the world I see through a Tim Burton lens To the grim certain end, These rebels stay proud Hear the levels way loud At the Devil's Playground
From my tower at sunset, I watch all the misled Slow motion, Human lemmings Running to the cliff's edge With this said, Let's get free from their grasp 'cause there's no path To peace ya'll, Peace is the path
So I chill under the arctic With my mellow cup of tea And broadcast transmissions From my Yellow Submarine I've been trekking this trail Since the earth was born I sail my Black Pearl Through this world's Perfect Storm It's like
See every night Through my eyes is a window I watch life pass by Like the wind blows And when I turn from my mirror That's my intro To step into this life With my mic and some inspi... ration Please forgive me For my sins though When I'm alone in the dark Left in limbo I light a thought Like the spark to my Indo Forever put it down For my art and my kinfolk
I'm a field full of flowers, I'm 'a bring it back by dinner I'm the skill, I'm the power I'm a silverback gorilla You steal a caterpillar, Thinking your killer raps are iller So while you beef I'm fishing, writing, chilling By the river
So let me introduce you To my castle of calligraphy The lights are on, We're all at home, We march to a new symphony That Mad Hatter Of that motion music Whose liquid lyricism Leaves the oceans moonlit So my pirate ship can set sail Through the sun, rain, snow or hail 'cause there's something 'bout to happen Like there's something in the wind On a quest without a vest Like I'm Huckleberry Finn
So call me that book With a spectacular twist 'cause even Hogwarts Ain't seen magic like this See I'm that author in the addict That'll liberate the mind With a bird's eye view Trying to illustrate time, I was born ready
See every night Through my eyes is a window I watch life pass by Like the wind blows And when I turn from my mirror That's my intro To step into this life With my mic and some inspi... ration Please forgive me For my sins though When I'm alone in the dark Left in limbo I light a thought Like the spark to my Indo Forever put it down For my art and my kinfolk
