There has been a new forensic find
It was unearthed on the other side of my mind
Hidden away throughout all of my time
No parallels thus no lines
The darkness was vast, its terrain never before traversed
Each step taken was new, there wasn't time for this dance to be rehearsed
A purse was paid
A song was played
There were new memories to be made
But they were all to be made after this find...
I walk alone, I'm looking at you and I tell you that I truly walk alone
The thoughts in my dome, they are mine
The dreams and wishes that I have, these cannot be defined
So you see I myself have been confined
I've been confined to this time, this place, these eyes, this face
The clock on the wall it tick, tocks, tick, tocks
You see today there has been a new forensic find
This find has lead researchers to the back of my mind
The back of my mind is where they find that time has stood still forever
The dinosaurs and early man still roam
The Indian and immigrants both have homes
In the back of my dome they find riches unknown to the everyday man or woMan
It's more like WHOA, man
So now I try to WHOA, men and women alike
So now I try to feed the world the biggest slice of life
I light my thoughts on fire so others can see my light
I'm burning
I'm burning with the desire to take over this place
I'm burning with the desire that soon people will recognize this face
This face of change and want
I want to change, I want others to want
Want to be the best at whatever it is someone is telling you, you can't have, you can't do
I want to tell others simply this
"I'll do me and I'll let you simply do you"
Today there was a new forensic find
Today there was a key found which opened my mind
The looks of black faces, running races so they can finish
One, two, and three
The looks of hope which were once hung on a tree
Before there was thought of you and before there was thought of me
A great man once told me to pray and push
So tonight I pray for no more teachers no more books
No more teacher's dirty looks
Tonight I pray for peace
Tonight I pray that my soul will slay the beast which lays wait on the darkest part of my mind
Tonight I pray that I will push on
Tonight I pray that I will hold on
A new song
I sing
Tonight I pray that silence will silence this thing
This new found find, which sits on the other side of my mind
Quietly waiting for its discover, recovery....

6 Shots
Tonight all of my dreams have been replaced
Feelings of hate and malice race across my lips
I've been stripped/tripped
But you've forgotten to deliver the last blow
Instead you leave me lying here
And my emotions, begin to die slow
There's no medal or honor that you can win
You, like so many others, smile and pretend
I caught your presence your spirit in the wind
There was a time not too long ago, when I actually considered you to be a friend
But tonight I lay here in the dark
Bleeding, my words are bleeding on these pages
My thoughts have become contaminated with a plague
Now these words seem contagious, it's so outrageous to think
That soon I'll close my eyes and thus begin to sink
Sink into a place where I've been before
A place where the harsh realities of this world won't matter anymore
One is in the chamber and a click away
Two is in the chamber and with a quick prayer I pray
Three is in the chamber with hopes that one and two fail
Four is in the chamber to assure that this pain won't prevail
Five is in the chamber just for no other reason
Six is in the chamber just to prove that my bags were packed and I was set on leaving.....
No need to hang on, this is the end
Broken perhaps but I couldn't bend
Feelings of hate and malice race across my lips
I've been stripped/tripped
But you've forgotten to deliver the last blow
Instead you leave me lying here
And my emotions, begin to die slow
There's no medal or honor that you can win
You, like so many others, smile and pretend
I caught your presence your spirit in the wind
There was a time not too long ago, when I actually considered you to be a friend
But tonight I lay here in the dark
Bleeding, my words are bleeding on these pages
My thoughts have become contaminated with a plague
Now these words seem contagious, it's so outrageous to think
That soon I'll close my eyes and thus begin to sink
Sink into a place where I've been before
A place where the harsh realities of this world won't matter anymore
One is in the chamber and a click away
Two is in the chamber and with a quick prayer I pray
Three is in the chamber with hopes that one and two fail
Four is in the chamber to assure that this pain won't prevail
Five is in the chamber just for no other reason
Six is in the chamber just to prove that my bags were packed and I was set on leaving.....
No need to hang on, this is the end
Broken perhaps but I couldn't bend

Zippo
I refuse to be abused any longer
There's a sense of hunger, which cries from within
So I feed him with a constant supply of knowledge and wisdom
I'm never losing vision of all around me
Some scream because they think they've found me
Look again
You see my village is under siege so now I seize the chance fight back
I seize the chance to attack the strongholds of the untold men and women who walk around with blindfolds
I seize the chance to attack those who see in only white and black
I'm fighting back
I'm fighting to take over your minds and your color pallets in order to paint a new song
Today you'll find me singing songs of yesteryear which fell on the ears of those who didn't want to sing along
So check it, the question is why are they now singing OUR songs
I sit in a dark room but I can see the light
I can feel its warmth
I can tell it's bright
In the end it's us who walk among the DEAD in the brightness of the night
"Shine your lights ya'll"....

Fashawn, Alchemist, and Evidence
So I'm not a kid anymore but it was DOPE to be on stage during this particular show! More videos to come...
My Gaza Dream
Children prayed
Bullets sprayed, in the buildings right up the block
Muslim rocks
Christian knots
Gaza is getting hot
Morning yawns
Dropping bombs, what seem light worlds away
Corporate greed
Nations need, to fight just to stay
Dropping bombs
Crying moms, nowhere to bury their seeds
Awkward cries, babies lay beneath the rubble and debris
A world at loss
No one to toss, a white cloth in to call it quits
Sinking ships
Targeted hits, bullets just learned to fly
Distant glow
No info, we're all being told a lie
Fallen dads
It's all so sad, two more rocks hit the sand
Unarmed man
Holding hands, this is his final stand
Families hug
Pull the plug, this is what we have to do
Gentile or Jew
Whoever knew this what it's all about
Giant hand
Tries to fan, the flames which won't go out
Masses shout
"Is this what it's all about"
On their knees
Countless seeds
Ready to be heard
Spread the word
Shepherd-less heard
Allowed to roam free
Last decree
Can't bother me
A Bush says to the land
Diggin sand
Contra bands
You've ruined our once great land
Atom bombs
Holding on, just a push away
Coming soon
The glorious doom, all sins are washed away
Sit and look
World is shook
Common ground can't be found
You're chasing tails
You're going to fail
The fox says to the hounds
In a flash
Life's final dash
Is ran across the screen
Folding arms
Another bomb, the smoke can't be seen
An evolution
Perhaps revolution is staring us in the face
Warm embrace
Gentle face, I'm sorry but I must go
Rubbing hands
Mixed with sand, I must fight for what I know
Rise and fall
Resurrect the wall
Knocked down
It firmly lies
Two shots ring out
Body drops to its knees
Bullets sprayed, in the buildings right up the block
Muslim rocks
Christian knots
Gaza is getting hot
Morning yawns
Dropping bombs, what seem light worlds away
Corporate greed
Nations need, to fight just to stay
Dropping bombs
Crying moms, nowhere to bury their seeds
Awkward cries, babies lay beneath the rubble and debris

No one to toss, a white cloth in to call it quits

Doubtful
You didn't want to endorse our team
You said our idea would only be a blip in time you see
So now I'm holding time, you see, right in front of your face so you can see
Without your doubt we wouldn't be able to...
Dream so clearly and fully

Dream so clearly and fully
Feels Like
So this is what it feels like
The wind in your face, speed with no brakes
So this is what it feels like
Feeling warm at night, the moon's moonlight
So this is what it feels like
The touch of your skin, let the journey begin
So this is what it feels like
Your voice in the air, the mic is right there
So this is what it feels like
The masses raisin' their hands, two or three grand
So this is what it feels like
The rain in your face, no umbrella to brace
One has to keep runnin' the race at such a frantic pace
Because this is what it feels like
When you come off of the high, you see you're not the same guy
So this is what it feels like
A thousand pairs of eyes reading and wondering why
They never feel like...
Gotta find this on your own
It's a feeling so grown
Please tell me what it feels like....
