I'm trying to move through this life with excellence
A lot people move just to garner acceptance
People on their hands and knees idolizing a presence
So now when the pen moves, I will be relentless
I went and took the scan, we're infected with tetanus
A clowns gonna clown within the fucking circus
The movement has them shook, It really makes them nervous
But some of us are progressing, we're living within our purpose
You have to read between the lines: answers don't live on the surface
I watched my chains disperse, Do you know what your curse is?
All I want is love, All I want is peace
But most folks really don't want to pay the fee
That's why I keep my heart close to me
But she saw something in me that I couldn't see
It's a relief that I had Anika at my side
I'm in love with her and I will even after I die
But I arrived at my conclusion a little too late
Hopefully she gives me grace so I can demonstrate-
The love that I have for her because it is boundless
These past few nights I have been restless
The more time she spends away the more I feel that I'm heartless
My heart is beating slow so I feel my heart beat less.
I recognize our pain and now it's a project-
In retrospect I wish my old man showed more respect
For the words of his father within his dying breath
He said "Don't bring a woman in here" then he laid to rest
I shouldn't let the past keep me away from my best
This would make others grab a tech but for me, it's a vest.
Now I'm invested in the culture
Saying what's real is hung up like a poster
But a poser is just the identity of a vulture
Picking carcasses apart while we pray at the altar.
