Almost every time I've performed this jawn live,
I've busted out a yoga matt and done a position or two while rapping.
(Steal my prop Ideas and forever be tortured by the fact that you are a biting ass lame ass mark ass trick. (:<3)
lyrics
Oooohm-my god let's do some yoga.
Differentiate the fake from the real, the pose from poser.
I'm supposed to know the difference but I'm sentenced to a lifetime of fighting whack-ness and bearing witness to these boasters.
Now who's burning doja in the Dojo?!
You know you should've saved it for the parking lot bro bro..
Don't wan't masters to snatch ya, have ya up on strings like yo-yo.
No smoke inside of the temple of clarity and definitely no photos.
In fact, do me a favor, smash your I-phone yo.
Buy yourself an atlas, rid yourself of all the fomo... with a ph.
Now enjoy it, don't blow it, every moment on some snap-chatting, Insta-gram, fad fashion.... EnTRAPment.
All I see is that whip lashing, cracking on the backs of my brethren, I'm asking, is this convenience worth the fire of it's dragon?!
Dragging us on the floor to the future.. I'm not laughing, I'm not passing opportunities to expose passion! (X2)
Picking places to piss. My favorite is on castles.
I am picking places to sit in a parking lot full of cattle!
Pixels in place for the Sith to stage a battle.
Between the red and blue, the one and zero, for the sake of a rad show! (X2) ( 2nd-”for the sake of control!”)
OOOOHH Your (you're) god let's make some Art!
Try to set apart the movie from the reel, see who really plays their part!
See who's first place when we're all one at the start and the finish.
It's hard to form a chart amongst the grand infinite. Fuck a limit!
I'll beat a critique in any battle! Most can't spit it and it's embarrassing watching them try to get it right after... Jumping into the trap with unintelligent dudes that glorify gats… Spinning kids into a cataclysmic path!
Belittling women on tracks! Excuse me for wanting to be different but I do it for the children and not the plaques!
Fuck an evil villain that's laughs echo through the souls of seven billion and counting dogs and cats, representing each side, split by the very path we walk and have to maintain through sick pain, experiences that teach us, help us grow.
In fact I recognize the darkness HAS to exist but that doesn't mean that I've got to praise or feed it. I just want to not go blind when peeking at this truth we're seeking.
It's about time we rid ourselves of all these demons, excuse the christian symbolism, I'm sure you get what I'm meaning.
The traits that spin us 'round, bring us down in the spiral tetrahedron.
Rip off that lab rat duck tape and let me see that smile beaming!
Let me know you're real and not another one to take advantage of my love and style. Take your notes before hopping off of my boat. Not before sinking that ship cause they all want to see me drown and be a clown!!!!
