One Word 03:00
and so I think about my time often on this planet that we dropped in grow up and gain an understanding of my callings till the coffin, I'll be applauding learning, cause everything’s incredible microscopic yearning, born with a soul burning for something that determines course in a world at war somethin that averts earth's cursed nature of fakes and frauds try to shake them off but can't go so far as to scrape the source and through my blemished pores, the blemish pours until I’m empty and raw but keep working on the craft until my pen is a sword and I try to keep an eye on the prize and one straight ahead to see what lies and all the while, in all my trials I'm working on the craft until my pen is a sword at least for me the word has always been music *one word* describing all of my persuits in *one word* in finding solace I'ma definitely need it ain't a cliché if it's true potential isn't anything without an action actually, it's just for putting artists in depression and so I'm posing my prose as a weapon to those that oppose my essential ascension but I suppose it's only for best when things pass me by and others get them cause soon I'll be ready to step in and prove what I's meant to do and whether or not that means only to myself pride'll be the only thing encroaching on my wealth while well written don't sell all still spittin' real felt that underground's where the real music dwelled and fell off the stages and stations to basements basically chased into hell but now waiting in patience for the change it's amazing the pace the revolution is taking for me the word has always been music *one word* describing all of my persuits in *one word* in finding solace I'ma definitely need it ain't a cliché if it's true

he said "it's been good kid but I 'gotsta' go fulfilled just as the prophecy told quick, grab a shovel and toss the first load cause I found all the answers and can't risk forgetting" so, mr. "soul" got his wish and left the planet with his face aglow but I'ma tell you right now I'd switch cause in the moment he was holding on to something to "know" and I delve down deep into secrets sink more than I dig more often than not but even other times I've found peace in things you believe to be false I'm a piece of scenery, just a piece of scenery and seem to be a grievance for the people that are keeping me increasingly incredulous and that's an "estimate" for pessimism creeping up upon and defeating me he was plagued by the same trials that linger for millenia and take minds incendiary ideas embrace mine till I have seen the light soon I'll be fine and soon we'll be cool cause in time I can know you we are the keepers of inadequacies laced in the fabric of reality imagine me, nothing but a knot with a tight grip on everything I've been taught cause the man can only be exposed to so much and with the notion of such, he closed his mind unabashedly and passionately pursued the few ideas that actually packed his head to capacity and he's lacking any real zeal to change but 'least he feels it, even if it being in vain and he seems all right, cause most 'round town see him as such, and see him as same but he probably is though and probably doesn't think so and probably never will and that's what makes it so true he's just a man in the mix in a world where everybody's independently discovering pain

so how'd it happen? and he was even born in depression an isolated inception left him in a state of guessing enticing his favourite weapon to try and appraise the current phase in question as to how his fate could possibly be based in such a place which sent him on a chase to find an able guide, awaited by a greater time he trained his state of mind in taking patience in the pride, lest he'd fail to rise, fade away and die and that's how brother learned to cope he used these spare years to plant seeds that'd one day bear fruits much bigger than the tree little did he sleep, much did he dream though he'd spend more time thinking than doing within his improvement and kid was getting slicker every time he spit a lick but soon we'd find him in a slump he'd only wish to fix and he would lie and tell the world it's been his only home lo, alas we know the troubles of a lonely soul travelling upon overgrown roads mapped by the few and far in between bold excavating old spirits in my spare time peering into minds their experience is mine

Hey, eh-yo what's up honey baby? I'ma tell you some reasons why you wanna date me. First, I can take you anywhere you work, and we can get a discount from every single clerk. Not to mention the benefits and perks - and if you('ve) got a pension, a wedding in a church. Well we could wait but if worst comes to worst, a year from Monday's our first annivers'. *It shows he has thought about price range* Well, well, well yeah of course, we settled it before - ignore social stigma she'll get the door. But I've still got my dignity, until she admits she really isn't into me. At which point, I begin to see it's simply a little song she needs like... Babe, don't you know that when you run away it drives me crazy? Why Don't You Know? (X2) Cause darlin', you're my summer evening beautiful melody. Why Don't You Know? (X2) Hey, you, how could you be so careless? All I wanted to do was meet your parents. But, you had to release that document stopping me from hanging-out on your terrace. It's cool, I don't NEED to be there, it's just I'll be honest I'm awfully embarrassed. I long for lawfully wedded but confidence is dropping steady each time your phone number varies. *It's doing the girl no favour to leave it entirely up to her* Oh really? Well, maybe I should drop by her place then, the mail-boy told me where she moved to when I paid him. *that would be fun* Aw yeah, it's out in Lake-Bend, gee thanks mister I'll make like the wind. I'll bet she's waiting in the den, so maybe I should let myself in. Babe, can't you see me sitting on your front porch waiting for you? Why Don't You Know? (X2) Cause darlin', I just want you to know how I feel about you. Why Don't You Know? (X2) HEY! Can't you see me through the window? They're arresting me. Why Don't You Know? (X2) Cause darlin' I would like you so much more if you loved me back. Why Don't You Know? (X2)

released February 3, 2012

*update*
"Why Don't You Know" samples U.S. Government PSAs from the 1950s that were/are obviously extremely misogynistic.
I thought they were ridiculous and wrote the song at 18 years old as satire for a couple friends.
How it ages is at the viewers' discretion :)

These beats have samples from some of my favourite songs.

All beats by Mitchmatic except "One Word," by MUMPS
