THE WRITE WAY


It's amazing how you can paint words on blank pages and touch people you'll never see/

i thank those who do relate but at the end of the day, these words aren't for you, they're for me/

a letter to myself--signed, sealed and delivered to my heart's address/

a bowl of chicken soup for my soul, you can have some but don't make a mess/

its not easy to satisfy my appetite while increasing your fix/

but with the right determination i could feed a nation with a loaf of bread and a piece of fish/

making something out of nothing is godly, it boggles the mind like a stroke of magic/

artistic nomads didn't have note-pads, they chiseled poetry onto stone tablets/

bodies of scripture travelled vast lands like Moses' Ten Commandments/

fuck a top-ten rap list...i wanna be one of the top-ten Ecstatics in the history of this planet/

i oppose with passion the status quo, never dance with the ignorance-laden establishment/

i'm expanding beyond my homeland, i got massive plans--i'm thinking Pan-African/

you can't understand how my writing hand makes me a master of men?/

the pen is mightier than the sword, i battled and stabbed Aladdin in the abdomen with my black Atlantis pen/

then i took off in a dark magic carpet with her majesty Princess Jasmine...


I'm fly.
