The sea that we come from
scenes that we run from
Seems like I’ve seen it all before, me
Seems like I’ve seen it all before, me
Seems like I seen it all before
Push the pull door my uncle
Rap jumbo, pay by the leader
Weed out weaker weeds tumble
Towers on the cusp of crumble
Essaouira with my Jimmy Cap, snapped back
Whole snapper black gumbo
Flatten the amazon with torches
Build porches
To mourn Ferngully’s orphans
Pick your poison
Curses written in cursive
Subversive,
Carpet match the curtains
About as blue as the earth is
7 billion plus, I’m only seeing us
Splitting these tapes like a heathen husk
Crack the crust, line with gold
Cover with sediment from the river bank
Thank the elements and elder scrolls
Birth right, hyphen and death
Hope we was ripe when we left
Could end up right where we left
On some Doc Brown, On a brown dock
Rebirthed by a tribe of witches that blend wombs for private stock
So, just come to me
Sip something
Smoking something
Sitting comfortably
Ah, look what you done to me
David Ruffin
For your lovin’
Need ya company
Black wall street, moon pices
Moon pies and a red Icee
Moon moves the sea inside me
Help me see inside me,
So much love that it might blind me
Just a beach boy, so we don’t preach boy
Hannah Barbera never outta reach boy
Fly intros, fly credits my fam gets it
No time for the passive aggressive
Dismantle weapons
V for Vandetta, S for Siesta
Be for the sake of the trees breathe better
Eat and sleep better, lucid dream pleasure
The peace getter
My thing mega, proceed
Tides high feeling so low key
A Jazz man doing my solo thing
No ears here to hear and I got no need for the screens
“Well well, Man Why you got to be so mean”
So, just come to me
Sip something
Smoking something
Sitting comfortably
Ah, look what you done to me
David Ruffin
For your lovin’
Need ya company
We stay incorporated
So of course we made it
SO. Crates return to basics
Stack tapes made for the players
Ohios greatest,
For the honey dips a higher nature
Ask Isis who the nicest
Mind made of Midas
Gold plated, stand beside us
Sound of silence
Sound of islands
Sound boy found the man inside him
Mankind made the hate to hide him
7 billion plus each a universe
A Dark Emu above the earth
Sand talk from the hands that work
Know what the lands worth
Shape rock and the words
Just a beach boy
So I don’t preach boy
Too deep, enchanted with dancers and need sleep
Got the paper in advance knee deep
Breath deep, in the sea breath deep
Deep
So, just come to me
Sip something
Smoking something
Sitting comfortably
Ah, look what you done to me
David Ruffin
For your lovin’
Need ya company
The sea that we come from
scenes that we run from
seems like I’ve seen it all before, me
Seems like I’ve seen it all before, me
Seems like I seen it all before
