Enter the Darko

Yeah RS.D

It could be easy

Get caught up in the steez

Just remember to breathe

Deep, deep, deep, deep..

****

You know I come through with the realness
Haters might try to bite and steal this
Ay, but they just don't know
Exactly what it takes to get up on my level
Ha, I been surviving through the struggle
Mhmm, and I've been striving through the hustle
Hermione Granger when I thought I was a muggle
I guess great power takes a while to uncover
Now I been conjuring this patronis
Getting freaky
Girl you know where the patron is
Yeah, it's prob'ly up in my fridge
How ya think I got myself this beautiful kid?
Haha, but to be honest I'm not looking to party
Just tryna reacquaint y'all's spirits and bodies
Reconnect your soul with the depths of your mind
Make sure you remember to always give yourself time
To grow, to go, to smoke the 'dro
Another day, another dollar,
Still seem two cents short
Mem'ry bank deposits with nouns and verbs
Now every time I'm speaking, I make sure that I'm heard

Above the clouds

Beyond what some would call spiritual

A miracle any time I spit this shit lyrical

My literature

At times seems more like a vehicle

To carry back and forth between the cynical mind

And lost time

Spent on moments we thought were pivotal

When really, they unequivocally pitiful..

Happiness ain't black or white but stuck in the middle

Gray clouds, thoughts loud

Got your girl speaking riddles

Habit turned habitat since I was little

Tryna play these heartstrings

Like a bow to the fiddle

Firewood to flame for open hearts to rekindle

Weaving all these new connections got your soul on a spindle

****

You know the soul takes some time

Don't get caught on rewind

They say to stay on your grind

I'm saying just give yourself a try

Give a chance and you might

Find a love for the night

Or find love in something

Worth the fight

****

Yeah above the clouds

Beyond what some would call spiritual

A miracle anytime I spit this shit lyrical

Origins

I’m not crazy, weathered at worst Like early days of earth Rubble rock birthing life from  violent destruction Fires burning molten in the underbelly of my origins Bubbling beneath cracked surfaces Where I oftentimes appear stable My heart is a volcano Bursting at the seams where new ground must form Former foundations crumbling, splitting like Pangaea  Where connections we once had feel like nothing more than distant history Evolution of man How he crawled out of water to feel sun upon his face How I would wait hundreds of thousands of years  In hopes he’d emerge from darkness to find me Staring out into space The nostalgia of quiet combustion Peering into past lives in the distance Knowing most of what I know to be beautiful is dead I am a supernova  Bursting at the seams where new life may form  Gathering masses from stray debris Gasses and gravity Nebulous love Pulling together new solar systems  in ancient designs and unwritten formulas Life is messy Somehow we find a way to fall

Where do I begin When the whole world has been crumbling for a minute All of us fighting for this pot to piss in like it’s the only place to sit Game of porcelain thrones Everyone bleeding over one-ply papers Worth international deficit Shout out to my American privilege Where ignorance is protected And propaganda is the primary news outlet No scorn over countries war torn, just know both sides are US funded Terror isn’t as terrifying til you and yours become the target When it comes knocking at your door Economic decline existing solely in the working class and poor Gas is $4.20 in Vegas on a good day I’m just trying to make it to work Make it work Knowing someone else is benefiting from this sweat Thirty percent of this check Already guaranteed to the government Navigating tourist traffic They have a habit of making us their escape Make us wait as they wade through ensembles of tax dollars on display While teachers take yet another strike day Begging for a fraction of what is deserve

Co-ping

I hate you the most when I really need you And you're there like you've always been Like you're still my best friend and we can face anything together Like I never left, Like you never let me.. Like we didn't have to let the story end And maybe there was still a chance for happily ever after Something about the softness in your eyes Or the secret in your smile Suddenly you didn't seem so evil I wept, and you held me closely Lips whispering in my ear, "You'll always be family" Heart screaming, "I'll always love you" Some things really don't ever change Because you've always loved me most when I needed to be saved I only crave you like my last cigarette When I see you making someone else happy Giving them that fix you used to give me, Or when I smell you and momentarily I am tempted by the familiarity My fingerstips itching to paint you in my past regrets I hate you most when I see you growing into the man I always wished you had be
