That’s why I keep my nose to the stone, sharp til the hairs split | |
Prose of a lone cub in a bear’s pit | |
And I can barely sit still, | |
You know the deal: wake, work, repeat | |
I’m trying to eat, | |
I’m trying to free up them wings, trying to bare some teeth | |
Insignificance ain’t no signature I’m trying to leave | |
Set a precedent for me, trying to teach it to my seed | |
No predicament too twisted for speech, I’ma just be. | |
(alone) | |
P.O.S.: | |
Back from seeing papa drink 40 o-u-n-c-e’s just to quench, | |
I’ll rise against all you rinse in me | |
you want your soundscape scraped, that’s my homeboy Cece | |
I’ll be that lung beater here to choke smoke and pent heaters | |
warm the frostbite of the death cheaters | |
and maybe next year the check clears | |
until that time, nickle and dime, | |
no henny and shine, grind them gears | |
me and Cecil been up for years | |
now peeking at how to live | |
how funny something so simple can leave you feeling so supple | |
belly full, promise of struggle, never bull | |
stay Doom through til the muscle | |
and I’m been dreaming for a Cecil beat, | |
pasting on the canvas on the easel beat, needle point | |
balance them anxieties | |
and fret with any spool or school of thought that keeps the cloth you stitch indifferent, | |
it’s not the pot you piss in | |

Cecil: | |
So now I stepped into the side saddle, riding all alone | |
My only weapon is my mind, | |
That and knowing that the road wrote a story of its own entitled | |
“I am yours to loan, but I ain’t yours to own, no I ain’t yours,” | |
and only open eyes would know the lines and quotes | |
and no I haven’t always kept my eyes open, so I’m | |
(alone) | |
without a home to call my own, | |
cause dreams are the only roads I roam. | |
And now I’m sleeping in a box car dreaming of the lost starts, preaching and car hearts | |
Standing at the edge of this cliff, throwing little things off like rockstars and car parts, | |
These scars that are marking up my face and body, | |
are the songs that I write about you but now I base them off me, | |
I’m breaking laws that we alone don’t show a sign of purpose | |
so I’ll walk these lines and these fences until my time is serviced | |
These giant churches, burning witches, pretty perverts, city workers and snitches | |
that shit’s just drying on the fan, the damned | |
I’ll keep my chin up, sit up,and stand | |
Just combing through the trust, the rust, the dust, the rush and the drunk angst | |
I cash my check at a blood bank, | |
Plus I’ve got some clown make-up and a traveling dunk tank. |
