I told you you brought me Back to Life But you should know I walk & bask in Light When I hold you close I know I’m old & ghostly & far from an adequate partner But I need you to laugh at my startling ways & see the Path through the Darkness that’s paved I ought to be crazed & lost It’s amazing that I fought & displayed my thoughts It saved me, but I’m distraught by your gaze these awful days I know you need more than what I offer you babe So I speak lores that I wrought for our baby & hope that you read closely I seed tokens of my Love When I breathe, like a potent drug From the Ocean above This is for both of you, Love It’s not just a song for you This is a psalm of Truth A balm for our youth, calm & soothing One day when she’s yawning & cooing You’ll grasp this I have to be there all the way All I can say that you’ll fathom Is that I have to be near her, call me crazy But just to actually hear her say “dada” is amazing Don’t be mad if I’m dazing or rapping I may be lacking in mastery Yet I’m not lacking in capacity I’m asking, does it have to be like this? It’s like I’m masking my brightness with you We have fights & issues Despite this I’d miss you Beyond heightened description if you left me I’m not righteous, I’m wicked to death, see Yet you’re missing the signs due to my written rhymes You’re misinformed when you listen to songs I wrote & you wrongly quote me, but this psalm is my opus
From the Past to the Present & the Future I need you both to breathe Hope & blessed Truth Into my restless being so I can best my demons I etch this proof so I can bless this youth
Quoted out of context, I’m mostly in contest with myself This is my Hell, I live & dwell within it I’ll never get to the perfection I wish I was Please get that perception is like the liquid in a mug that’s half filled You see me half-empty, the other half that you see in me Is potential unfulfilled, but my mental is full of will & there’s a way there, I can’t just stay scared of the Future Stay fair & the bloopers will disappear Like Van Gogh’s missing ear I stand sober, listen Dear I plan to overtake my subconscious & soberly tame my monsters I’ll get a contract, I won’t just spit & bomb tracks & talk of contacts with other densities, I have other propensities I’d love for you to discover the immensity of my realms Delve into them with intensity with my spells There’s a dragon princess that dwells in these kingdoms She laughs as the winds bless her with tales within them She’ll grow to be a goddess & reap what she sows in honest So modest in essence, yet not in her reflection She’ll see gods & blessings in every being she meets From clever demons in streets To wretched fiends that sleep on park benches Farfetched as this may be to guess this of a baby I know she’s blessed, it’s crazy So Blessed I’m bereft of breath, it’s no jest It’s a celestial lesson in a song Which is an ode to you both, see I know that you loathe me for the moment But I hope that this omen can change this My potent angels
From the Past to the Present & the Future I need you both to breathe Hope & blessed Truth Into my restless being so I can best my demons I etch this proof so I can bless this youth
