Final Flash

I said: My deliverance
is always in loving my difference.
understanding my purpose, and
how I deliver it. Make it pre…
cise and deliberate
‘cause I became an Art-ist
to show you what art is--
now here it is. See?
I been
going through these trials
like an Olympic system
but still controlling my emotions
like the Limbic system
Peep the way I’m
bouncin’ in and out the rhythm.
Giving you data to process line by line like
I’m rapping in algorithms. But…
they wont know what the hell I mean.
They
slow as hell, I’m
talkin’ bout a Sloth on lean.
The lean got all their tracks sounding…“so-Soo”
but me? I nail it! Crazy on every track (like I’m Flo Jo)
For the record playas:
Ah! I give old vibes like vinyl does. My
style is on point and you can
tell by the buzz ‘cause
Once my pen
drops
down on these lines--
they producing a groovy sound
but aint that just what a record player does?
Ironic.
You hear these tracks but: Know—I’m not playing.
Music gave me a fighting chance so
this is my “way” in.
But you don’t always have to listen with your ears;
Sometimes it’s optional to listen with your opticals--
Do you see what I’m saying?
(Jiminy crickets!) I’m
snappin’ like a conscious brotha. (Gepito!)
When I create things like none other. And with my
guitars, “Oh-ma-God, Brotha!” Grab the strings
and bring things to life like Pinocchio’s Godmother.
It would appear these phonies got some nerve.
It’s like a competition to see who’s the most absurd.
I would talk about how they’re using lines
fishing for reactions, but…
I don’t wanna open that can of worms.
Stop crying hip hop is dead!
It’s not true--
The garbage on the radio is a reflection of you.
‘Cause People who have a product will only continue
to produce that product if it’s being consumed.
2-5-2 be the land that I come from.
I’ll be a rock city legend when it’s said and done.
And I won’t stop until the competition’s hard boiled
‘Cause I’m a BEAST coming straight out of the rock
I’m like a “gargoyle”.
Speakin’ of NC…we need to do some chattin’
about these last couple of years and the bills yall been passin’.
We gotta wake up and realize the power’s
in the people to take back our state
to our satisfaction. The republicans
are the right Twix. Democrats
are the left Twix. They come
in the same package but somehow
we still accept this and expect this
group of congressional degenerates
to do more than just talk about immigrants.
You know the government is full of suckas when
instead of finding solutions all they’re doing is “filibustering”--
And how the hell we make FOUR BILLION DOLLARS
in an “educational” lottery, but still cutting educational funding?
They
sell us the “gangster” image to get us to live like that.
Then the prison industries make billyens off that
and privately owned prisons are becoming the latest trendy thing--
Damn! I guess Orange really IS the new Black.
But…
That’s when you gotta soldier on with the cold stare of a General’s eyes.
Stick to the truth. And stay a step above all these general lies.
This is Abstract Music—nothing you could ever generalize. And…
why I could never figure out a fourth way to use ‘generalize’
(more or less) but, I’m here to make music that’ll, “Sho nuff last”.
To in-spire the people to gone and get free at last.
Bringing back the light like it’s a ‘blast from the PAST’!
Now that the light’s in my hand—I Final Flash on that ass!
King Me!
