Soul In the Horn

I lost myself inside the rhythms last night Soul roll out these speakers ‘Cuz the boom bap blast right Too many rappers wanna smash mics But I cradle notepads And travel pen strokes like nomads Fakes just don’t have the gonads To flow past the old raps And re-construct the old maps Perhaps their just scared of change Unprepared for new age Impaired vision can’t see the true range It’s too strange, so much possibility But it’s all blocked Unless we stop the hostility But will it ever happen? I ask as I look to Her in reverence Drop a sentence And continue this petty rappin’ This is repentance, To all who I wronged I long to amend, my friend I’m with You until the end Not a trend; this is respect over royalty Not about power Everything’s rooted in loyalty So no devil can spoil these Never foil these philosophies Nobody is stoppin' these Or coppin' these in mixtapes I’m just a mistake A misplay on Fate Subject to misplaced hate… So I shake the weight Boulder off the shoulders lifted Breeze lift me like leaves But I’m floatin’ on clouds, not driftin’ Off into abysses? Nah, listen Ascension got me kissin’ These stars that glisten And I’m wishin’ upon ‘em To take someone along Autumn air to carry ‘em up Another leaf to the song Rock, rock on Long-last the legend From clock’s dawn To moon’s yawn This is forever heaven
