Cypher Equality Shadow (2008)
My mind distant
Shoulders cold
Soul frigid
People done burned enough bridges
I am not about to step
Outside of self seeking affirmation
Cannot inspire others for determination
Self degradation has become the new style
Today has become cooler to icegrill
Than smile
Confrontational non denominational
Tradition
Word is born like Goya beans
Tortured self portrait right in front of you
Uncomfortable when unaccustomed to
Natural fear
If everything is a lie
Then only the breeze is actual
Don’t be afraid to look yourself in the mirror
Don’t be afraid of the mess you made
Don’t hide your vulnerabilities
Rock them like new kicks
Stop running in place
Marathon massacre began last year
In this race
Efficient stamina to be the first one or last
At the finish line
Don’t spend the better part of your life
Asking why? Instead of how?
You can make the Atlantic waves crash
The Orchard Beach of your mind
Hold promises made to self
Most important
You fire sale pieces of times
To the highest quitter
In a concerted effort to procrastinate longer
Who have you been fooling?
The jig has been up
Everybody else knows the surprise
Except you
Who continue to exhibit
Warning signs of treason
Every second when claiming
To be crafting classic
You have simulcast your misery
To every world market
The planet needs some hope
Right now just in case you haven’t noticed
El mundo suddenly taken a turn
For the most gloomy
Got you walking round eyes closed
Bumping into your destiny
Who you swear in a dream
Told you she would take you
Out the hood forever
Maybe you missed the memo
But were only eligible for sweepstakes
But not guaranteed victory
So no
Don’t get bitter
Get on your grind
On your job
Wake up
Life won’t knock on the door
To sooth you out the nightmare
Wiping away doubt
Telling you everything will be alright
Nah
Far from it
Gentle kind sir
