lyrics
“Beat Off” Lyric sheet
Aye yo it’s not every day you get robbed right? This shit is tight/
They got my ass twice the same night/
First a crack head caught the post dread slippin’/
Ran inside the cut with my sun roof chillin’/
On four inch open crackie was scopin’/
Hopin’ to reach in and get the door open/
And grab my lap top bag/
Got up in my ass like a piedmont fag/
With no lube this shit has got me in the mood to drink/
Carouse till I can’t even think straight/
I’m swervin’ run into the curb and/
How did I get to Spring St. from Irwin/
Avenue what I have to do/
Is stop by the club and drink some more brew/
So I step out my car like a super star status/
Thinking I was the baddest run up on some bad asses/
Busted my whole head took my whole fuckin' loot/
Ta boot they took the wallet off the chain/
And the ID with the name plate Zee/
I can’t buy no more brew/
Tell me what the fuck am I supposed to do?/
“EveryWhen” Lyric Sheet
A thought that God is every man and woman in this human race/
Can lead to overstanding ignorance erased/
Replaced with power not obstructed/
Power to shape reality and awake/
Take a look around at what you see/
The same things are viewed by the next man differently/
And I’ve learned not to take one’s beliefs too seriously/
Even ones that matter to the mind of I/
Try to take whatever from everwhen then/
Put it in my crucible start to blend/
Send my energy through out the galaxy/
And come back more enlightened like the time of pre/
Fall of man green skin won’t even begin/
Towards the science of chloroplasm gold filled in limbs/
“Oh Shit” going on some science been known/
by the rabbi cabalists passed down from Elohim/
Through stages ages hard drives tablets to pages/
CD roms dot coms scrolls from sages/
Information been recycling/
360 the cipher seasons the yang and the yin/
I been way too deep in death them slices of sleep/
So far removed that all I’ve said is disproved/
