A meditation on Home.

lyrics

blasted hope and shattered dreams . Matted tings , kings we gon work the kinks out
I see you slept but the inks out
Tatted tears on this paper I wrote
Was in the wee hours
Ill sour hybrid with the Girl Scout feel louder
Stoner lingo for my goner people
I see you
Day ones on the lower level get equal
This that black power mr Hightower
Here to raise ours
They schools is dead prezzy gotta aim higher
Seek more be more,see more
That’s butts that’s guts
We more than they show us
So the flow is to go against the current lil shit stain ..know us
Claim your Queen, claim your king, claim your thing
Hell is American Dream,get it

This that Ossie Davis Ruby Dee
Forever Love what it truly be
I ponder where is home
Is it GNV ,Paris, or Africa
Black diaspora
Get to healing,get to feeling, that’s a lot for ya
Love your hair, love your skin
That’s Alafia,
To protect thing of ours
We the mafia
Michael,then Prince , then Kobe died
It’s been a struggle lawd you know we tired
My niggaz nod while im rhyming this
Less faith in religion,trust scientists,eyeing bliss
Fame, Why chase a bitch when you know she’s fleeting in a ship full of niggas with they golds gleaming (game)
When i get depressed and stressed from thinking too much
There’s home in the eyes of Tina and every Lula
