THE CHOSEN

I’M ON MA KNEES SAYING PRAYERS TO EASE THE FEARS THAT I’M PLAGUED WITH IN INSTANCES WHEN RAGING AND FLAGRANT
PACING FROM THE RUG TO THE PAVEMENT WAVELENGTH’S FUCK’D AND I WAVE MY ARMS LIKE WHAT AND I’M LEAKING SLEEKING THROUGH THE TOWN AND I’M TWEAKIN A FROWN ON MA FACE AIN’T FOUND WHAT I’M SEEKING I’M DOWN EMOTIONALLY AND I’M SEETHING BELIEVING IN THE LIES MA BRAIN’S CONCEIVING I’M SEEING NO WAY OUT SO I WAIT FOR EVENING HIDIN IN THE SHADOWS FROM OUT I’M LEAPING I’M ANGRY TO THE BOILING POINT AND IT’S SEEPING MIGHT HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE SECRET I’M KEEPING IT’S EATING ME ALIVE INSIDE AND I’M FREAKING I PRAY AND MEDITATE AT NIGHT FOR FREEDOM THE NEXT DAY I FIND MY FAITH IS FROZEN I RISE TO SEIZE THE DAY THAT I’M HOLDING A FIST FULLA DREAMS I’MA GET IT I TOLD EM THAT I’M A BRONZE GOD WHO’S STILL UNFOLDING BUT I LIVE IN THE FANTASIES THAT I’VE WOVEN LEARNED OF MY SKILL TO WRITE SO I DOVE IN AND STOLE THEN MOMENTS OF TIME AND I SCOLD THEM IT’S MINE AND THE LYRICS FLOW LIKE MOLTEN TO MELT THEM WHO CAN’T SEE OF THE MOVEMENT IMPROVEMENT OF USING WORDS THAT ARE SOOTHING WHEN MY SPIRIT FLY’S I LOSE IT METAPHORS IN MY DREAMS ARE LUCID TELLING OF THE TIME TO COME FOR THE CHOSEN ROSE AND ARISE TO MEET THE OCCASION

TRANSCEND THE LIGHT AND FEEL THE SENSATION
TRANSCEND THE LIGHT AND FEEL THE SENSATION…

SHE DIFFRACTED AND BECAME THREE AND HELD NINE BLACKBIRDS AT BAY TO SEE OF HER PRESENCE LIGHT HERALD OF THE EMINENT EVIDENT CAME AND SPOKE TO SHOW ME OF THE EVIDENCE
