Vocalized Thoughts ft. Nazareth Lyrics

I'm just smoking and

Chillin right now

Reaching even as

I'm on my way out

High stepping through the clouds

Still wondering what

This shit is all about

Student on a lifelong quest

Knowledge my kevlar helmet and

Bullshit proof vest

An active well exercised

Mind never rest

Never settles for what they peddle

My mental heavy like metal

Kicking up dirt but my

Riot will be anything but quiet

I'm going to bring light

And radiate like ultraviolet's

Or at least I'll die trying

Forever defying the odds

Too persistent to push pause

For better I rebel

Until my heart fails

Destined to be a story often told

Can never see myself

Completely heartless and cold

My life was in disarray

So I stepped away

Distant is how I choose to stay

A ghost

Shadow slowly fading

They say in his image

We're made in

Who is he

And where is he now

Seems like the lost

Have been searching

Since the first time this

Mother ship broke down

A brother like me believes

The answers lie within

Even as our resolve

Is wearing thin

Like between the thighs of

Old ass sweats or jeans

In today's world it's

Survival by any means

I try not to have any enemies

But I can't please them all

So short I fall still I stand tall

Such is life and all it's glory

Sometimes it feels like purgatory

At least how it was

Described to be

When the wash was on

And I was told to believe

But that just wasn't for me

A free thinker I be

I see beyond and through

Too old school to

Be on that new

Age math

World translation

An open mind is my salvation

I leave haters salivating

Ignorance is debilitating

But it's like me and sugar

I'm addicted and

Utterly conflicted

The damage self inflicted

Premeditated

Which probably

Makes it worse

In this case

Free will is a curse

Full submerged

In over my head

Holding my breath

It's amazing that

I have any left

It's all just prolonging my

Imminent death

What can I say

I love life so I pray for

More than just today

If you don't inner stand

Then it's not meant for you

Life is an acquired taste

For some it's a waste

For them space is the place

To watch time race

With this flesh comes

Joy and pain

So much to lose and gain

Some can't stand the rain

Like Ralph Johnny and Ne

Heartbreak consumes

We say they're gone too soon

Not realizing their adventures

Lie beyond the moon

Every day lived is a lesson

In time travel

The bass makes the stocks rattle

You don't want to see me in chess

Dominoes or with a

Ping pong paddle

These poems write themselves

My fingers move nimbly

Controlled by a greater force

I credit the universe

As the source

I just try to give the most

With this gift I've been giving

After the last three I know

I'm fortunate to still be living

I can't lie and say

I wasn't tripping

For the universe knows

As the life in me depletes

The love grows

I wish I would have known

Time would be my greatest foe

I would've used it more wisely

Thought more of who

I let stand beside me

We live

We learn

We struggle

We earn the right

To see tomorrow

Another day to play and

Let the inner child run wild

Even if it's just with

Our imagination

And somewhere along the way

We stop procrastinating
