The Lion's Den

Dilate the pupil

Like the ayahuasca brew

She be the one who

Show you to yourself

Shining like the moon

I be climbing out of cocoons

And acclimatising to rooms

Not feeling like there's room

I manoeuvre until the truth

Is superseded in your view, I spew

Abusive tendencies

Out of my face like

Ghouls that have

Plagued me before with the

Whos?, Whats?, Whys? and Whens?

These are questions

Presented up in the lion's den

Over half my life

I've been high on peng

Maybe I depend on it more

Than I do my friends

Maybe it's my mentor

Together we'll make amends

Maybe I'll turn mental

We're delicate like stems

Wilt like petals

When they snap, it's intense

Like the message that I send

In a bottle over seven seas

To reach the ends

Heart ain't broken

So no need to mend it

But I need to bleed from it

When I release the pen

Like venom from the serpents

All my enemies are worthless

When I'm diving in the deep end

And they barely touched the surface

Never fleeing from no curses

Standing strong, it be my purpose

Opportunities will always operate

Their way to serve us if we serve

Them with impeccable service

No fates determined

At the doors of perception

I'ma get the key and turn it

See the light here reemerging

Find the feeling that I'm yearning

It's getting deeper for this wordsmith

All I, I, I, really wanna know, know

Is where I'm gonna, gonna, go, go

But I don't really know

So I sit here and float on this

Track like, yo

All I, I, I, really wanna know, know

Is where I'm gonna, gonna, go, go

But I don't really know

So I sit here and float on this

Track like, yo

Track like, yo

I sit here and float on this

Track like, yo

I sit here and float on this

Track like, yo

I sit here and float on this

Track like, yo

Now I'm feeling like

Snow about to melt

Can't help how I felt

That's smooth like felt

That's why I'm cruising

Like stealth, couldn't

Give a flying fuck about wealth

I give a fuck about health

Don't fuck about with my belt

And try and jook a brother

I hold the title like the book's cover

Hold your breath, son, we're going under

Might awake to the sound of thunder

That's my conduct, I break your constructs

Conduct myself like a don does

And bring the flames till I combust

Infinite with the spirit

When I grab paint and rock dubs

Do you understand the

Colloquial slang

Up in this banger?

In the manor, all of

My man'll be on that

Strong stuff, while

You're falling off

Like rock dust

Spot on imposters

On the block

Like a cop does

24/7 making moves like

A clock 'cuz

Round and round

Like the ouroboros

Trust no one but soul ties

Knowing me, I know mine

Knowing me, I keep mine

Treasured like gold mines

Stress is going worldwide

We're needing all to unwind

We're needing all to unwind

Where the hell did the sun go? (See the sun)

I'm mind travelling for some time

I gotta praise the sunshine

'Cause I wanna see paradise

My soul be the essence

Deep set thoughts

Connect the past to the present

We're here today, gone tomorrow

My third eye sight

Sees through the sleepy hollow
