first installment. Real Talk 101

i got some fire i need to spit:


The MAN says "take note"
and as i look down at these keys
i realize it could be any note from a flat to d.

The MAN says "here are the keys"
and as i feel the keys in my pocket
i realize keys can open a door- but they also lock it.

The MAN says "follow your heart"
and as i look into my heart
i realize what is in a heart worth following?
the urge to surge forward after these mortal things?

And i realize "follow your heart"
should read, "follow your heART"
for the beat that it comprises
is your life that rises-
and falls accordingly
if only
if only Kanye wasnt so heartless.
only the woman?
NO
just as two hearts must make one.
only TWO hearts can make none.
Kwest knows that it takes two to tango.

moving on.

the lyrical idiocy of the modern world.
using the spoken word as pearls
given to swine.

the light that did show
dims to a faint glow
woah
the foe
is greater now the befo
integrating that which once was light, now a light called "notlight", into the fight for the mind
inspite
of resistance (which is futile)
but will continue without respite.

and we all respond with "Aight."
AIGHT?
aight to the word nigger, aight to the word rape, and these words in their full meaning thrive. wherein the first can be defined by the second in regards to culture and life.
aight to the word Change. Change here meaning the attempt to change standards to coincide with the downward flow of secular culture.
aight to poverty
aight to suffering. not personal of course, but the course is set before us
a four course meal,
while others beg to eat that orange peel
we say aight.
well wat if you died tonight.
aight then?
but that is why i pick up this pen.
provoked thought
fighting against the rot
of our minds
overtime.
the melting, bubbling, fermenting, churning pot that is the mind, my mind.
it can find some form here.
finale

in this season of cheer
let love peace and ___ be near
why blank?
go into your mindtank
insert what for you should be near
that hasnt been so far this year.
and then take it from this paper here
transfered to the life you live
transfered to the vibe you give
transfered.
be careful not to let it wane,
as time progesses forward again
be your own judge, throw down the gavel
dont lose your head, keep it level
aight--HA see even i do too.
its enough here that i preached at you.
but truly to myself most of all.
like paul-
