My mind grinds the sands of time Deaf, dumb and blind, I blow your mind with lines divine Now prior to my last event I meditated, graduated from the floss for lent Stopped rhyming for the ice, the twenties, that whip Started rhyming for got the love, my god, and my gift Immaculate I'm December 25th, 26th, I'm kwanzaa, Kunjufu Kuwanzaa I meander through the stanzas for answers A rhyme chancellor You die by the gun, now add it up dun What's the sum 360 We hot like Mojave Lyrically, we the trinity That's Us3, Reg Wyns, L-I-B Lo's flows are strong prose tight as your corn rows Why not? Why not unlock mine eyes to see the glory like Denzel or Dr. King Freedom will never ring no matter how we sing if the liberty Bell is broke Why not revolt if you can't cope with the feigned truth On this tight rope I avoid the noose as a black male youth I produce high flyings act over the wack I'm overproof Few despise me Why not recognise me I'm jamming for the culture like Stevie and Bill Cosby I wonder We defensive when we say the kids wild out We're teaching them, so we should take the time out, to Use the vizniz and get the red out In an instant, conference to brew out Downsize Foldgers thoughts crystallised I open third eyes, free jail cells Spreadsheets, I excel Duracell, we energise I pass right through your lies Keep my eyes on the prize Why not? I'm a rhyme antagonist I'm writing my story and I'm the protagonist If not for the beat I might be an evangelist Still free the masses Teachers teach classes Aristocracy getting put right on their asses by the proletariat I chide mc's out of their pride, they're fictitious Whether stage, screen, or jazz shit you're still with us I stay young black and prodigious The things I've seen'll make a Christian sacrilegious I'm indigenous as the Cherokee I'm hip-hop, you're a hip-hop hypocrisy Pause for the cause We brawl and break down laws Oxcutta to glass jaws To eat we break laws Eliminate the wars for I'm reppin for the cause Eliminate the wars, see I'm reppin for the cause Why not?
