there's a cadence and a rhythm in the visions i've been given
like the soul's in control and the body is simply driven
to find connections amongst deception, reality through perception
but this home that i've known as bliss is really called ignorance
see i've hotboxed the bubble of my existance
drunken directions of affection, succeeding at stoned seductions
but this little bit is better fit for productive constructions
see there an intelligence i hide behind the wild side
because it's been presented before and ignorantly denied
so naturally i've gotta decide who i dedicate myself to,
cus the demands of this daily grind don't leave much time to
dig around in everyone's state of mind.
see there's a depth that i'm determined to asses
amidst the masses made of sleepwalking stress
cus the thing that lingers inside, just past this pretty little dress
resides beside rejection and is accompanied by lies
but remains riddled with resistance,
blessed with intent and an innocent insistence to persist despite
trife life complications.
fueled to find the friendship that lies behind futile frustrations
because even the foolish have the mind to avoid confrontation
see the sun shines too bright to fight the shadows that it casts
so i stare at every sunset like it's the last one that will pass
but when time fucks with the mind and flies right by
it's hard to keep these exhalations from coming out like sighs
so i pick my chin up off the surface on which this body's standing
i focus vision and make the decision to be a little bit more demanding
because these days have ways of unfolding in my favor
like i'm finally seeing the reflection of love in the fruits of my hard labor
cus i'm tired of being a little more exhausted than my neighbor
so i summon confidence and strength with every single breath
and i always wear a smile even when i'm in denial
cus i know out there somewhere someone's falling in love with it
and i keep the third eye open even when both eyes are closed
cus it seems i know a secret that not everybody knows
so i'll try to tell my stories and we'll see how this one goes as long as you
help me combine our languages and create poetic prose
cus there's always a cadence and a rhythm when i've got the patience to listen
and i can find an unspoken connection in every imaginary recollection
so lets interlock these puzzle pieces and get the correct projection
because ignorance is bliss and there's something better than this
waiting on the other side of closed eyes
so i let the light in and let myself rise from this sleep deprived existance
find the fellow warriors to fight in this resistance
cus the way these days have been written on blank pages
reminds me that living is simply loving in different stages
so i dress this articulation with cadence
and taint these rhythms with sin
to tempt your mind into linking whats outside and whats within
so we can clear our slates and help this state start again
cus this story won't be over until we say it's the end.
