Hidden Clocks

Hidden Clocks,

I take my time to install these lines

As detailed as my dreadlocks,

I smile each day away

Because it's troubling when my head gets caught,

Inside my hands

Catch me again

Bathing in the 90's wrath

Life that chose to adapt,

To the oldies

To the older me's

To the one's that supposed to be consoling me,

To the homies

But one day I'll know i'll forget,

Where i come from

Where I'm going,

Don't we all at times?, don't all at times?

Dethroned thoughts leaving a vivid smile,

I write for the longest

Pinning miles,

Careful now

You jolly old soul,

Careful now don't tear a hole

Don't tear out your roots,

The ones of your feet

And the ones of you head

How do i kill time?

Modern days just aren't for me,

How do i conceal time?

Past days are stalking me,

How do i reveal time

Future days are mocking me,

How do i? How do i?
