[Intro Sample] So what are these barriers that keep people from reaching anywhere near their real potential? The answer to that can be found in another question, and thats this Which is the most universal human characteristic fear, or laziness? Good question for me its a bit of both Doubting my ability, sometimes being too lazy to execute But in the process of finding one self, one has to stay true to self [Verse 1 Ed Rowe] Found myself lost in time as I toss a rhyme Even with sleep I keep the force aligned To have my scripts depict shit that aint falsified Wont endorse a lie Im staying true to self at all times With Altzheims wouldnt forget the times I had to crawl, climb To make it happen, not to say I made it rappin To savor my sacred passion, amazed how the days are lappin Time flies when Im immersed in this Merciless towards the pen and pad Bleeding sharpies dry until the pages clad Of lyrical fluid, either to boo it or construe it For the gem it is, see thats the snapshot, crop the negatives Helps my head exist amidst the imbalance of serotonin What Im flowing is like a dosage of pheromones In a brainsize capsule, raps will snap an axle To readjust my drive the way a GPS would ask you Whether or not I want it, would take the knot in my stomach And use it as motivation, elevate, the weight will plummet [Chorus x2] Leave my stamp on this world These songs will vouch for me if Heaven demands a referral And if my work aint up to par then Im probably barred Cause its hell denying self when the crown should be ours [Verse 2 Sleep Sinatra] Enter my tortuous perfection, obsessing over quotables Portraits of self etched in, so many with a similar dream and disconnection With reality it seems I gotta keep a deeper message Rooted in juvenile correction, I understood self at a young age Through inner soul reflection Bringing poems from the core its more than inception A spiritual connection to the pen and pads blessing From the time of hieroglyphs to modern penmen Expressing all the pain through these rhymes, the art of venting I start a session and go deeper than the planets core The dedication resonates in those who want it more So I engage in mental war until my armors cracked Then I revert back to blacksmith and harden that See evolution and growth in life is part of fact Thats why I hope these tablets later become artifacts [Chorus x2] Leave my stamp on this world These songs will vouch for me if Heaven demands a referral And if my work aint up to par then Im probably barred Cause its hell denying self when the crown should be ours [Verse 3 Ed Rowe] Trapped in a funnel befuddled, rappin a muddled rebuttal And scratching at stubble, glancing at gems through the lens of a Hubble Stumbling over microscopics, devising topics and psychic optics Foresight, despite the blockage Writer stoppage, pickin lines kept from kickin rhymes Thick at times, striking like I aint stealing the penchant signs Gifts divine though I was doubting that Striking up a heated convo with the Creator, having a shouting match Questioning my purpose, putting pens to service Against serpents that got me tight roping like rocking small chains in a circus Some say I need to preach thats why I speak through verses Focused on the straight and narrow, peeping in discrete diversions In the process, long as Yah bless me with the wisdom And knowledge to deposit Ill invest it when the kids come And sip some of summers sweet nectar while I perfect the style Music meant to bless your child [Chorus x2] Leave my stamp on this world These songs will vouch for me if Heaven demands a referral And if my work aint up to par then Im probably barred Cause its hell denying self when the crown should be ours [Outro Ed Rowe] Individuation is coming to know, is giving expression to, is harmonizing the various components of your soul Its realizing your uniqueness, and tapping into your true self. Its a process like no other Its word to mother. Yeah Ongoing but imma keep it strong flowin elevating to the stars above much love one
