vinyl 4...flowers.
mary jane 4 grass
beneath my feet.
brushes 4 beats.
on every...
ivory marble headstone.
is a iced out mic.
a herringbone pen
an amber pad...
with a...
stupid crazy phat medallion
& the...crest
" in lyrics we trust...
4 the luv...we bust".
along the circumfrence.
here...
were I stand...
many styles rest.
I stand
impressed & blessed
blessed & impressed.
"Ra's" lyte on my face
the "Teacha's" book
in my hand...
but...
low an behold.
out the corner
of my creative cornea.
I spot
rows & rows
of black fist peace sign picks
with the metalic teeth
buried onyl partially deep.
4 every...
underground emcee
thats gone unknown.
peace...
2 The Lords.
& precious is
this "Quiet Storm"...
so...
when my flesh is no more
never mourn.
find a plot within this lot
& bury me...
4 this is...trully
the valley of the kings
resting on
hollow
ground...
man this was the [censored]. i am definitely a hip hop addict. but i only listen to the good [censored]. i love the underground rappers cuz these mainstream dudes are just lame, no talent actors. i liked the line "in lyrics we trust". this was ill. and it's definitely going on my fave list
I may be wrong....but I read this early yesterday and it seems different today! Did you add to it? LOL! If not, sorry....if so, I like it.
This was a different scope of you then I have seen before. You took a different topic on this one and I am liking what I see!
So many styles that no longer exist....so many mic's put to rest.....even great lyricists put to rest.
I think that these people deserve the credits. They have spoken of a while what many don't want heard. They have brought many issues to life, and made many people listen.
You gave this an urban beauty. It fits the hip hop trend.....yet the poetic side of it adds to the pleasure.
