I kneel by the steam My cuts and abrasions I clean I peer at reflection in water And reflect on what I gleaned With a gleam, in my smile, as I bleed I keep my feet planted in the doorway Of my opportunities Maybe they will crush my toes But I will rise, from bloody knees I was recently informed An old schoolmate died yesterday Reaper likes to remind me A fickle flower blooms in May Waiting, for the skeletons To walk, right out my closet I got no way to stop it They're hungry for my throne I, know my days are numbered On ethereal fingers So Imma taste that honey Afore He's out of hands Or I succumb to stingers Flipping tables of the dilettantes That peddle at my Father's temple At the crossroads With a man, wearing tweed I've a pen oar for life's rapids For sewing, I've a thimble It's amazing what's unlocked When you do close your eyes to see I scanned myself with price gun To see how much I'm worth And it turns out I'm just enough to satiate the dearth We're all serpents in another's garden Bearing sins, Buddha, wouldn't pardon Race do some with blinders donned To crowd they're sightless, but same burden Sacrifice for your consumption You can call me Christmas ham Peering at reflection Affliction reminds me who I am I don't need to drink whilst in my throes 'Cause craft's a drug to me Also mind could build connection 'Tween liquid and misery Even if I swigged every second of every day Seas of liquor couldn't hope to strip dark thoughts away Taking deep breaths While pondering the lands I've left to conquer Air that meets my lungs responds "You've always known the answer" Blue sky But I know of clouds' predilections Lucid depictions, given by The storm that's seeks my home And now my Life has made me, fain to ponder What is the craft to me I know it is a question, many of you wonder To cover bases, I'll need apophasis More than the stack that I learned for coding More than the sweat that I shed on the hill and the track Or the pain that I felt to be king of the pack Success—a canyon—and I keep eroding Gotta roll the dice, for the chance at paradise Cutman with a bag of ice And cornerman yelling from the ringside "If you really want the gold, sacrifice" Told I'm G.O.A.T. with world to alter I say I'm goat upon the altar So I need more than lust could conjure More than material could bolster I'm no proponent of the trigger But there are weapons you can't holster That's why I turn my sight much higher 'Cause I need more than life could muster Feel the groove Let the beat move through your feet I feel the groove Of the blade as it punctures me It's, more than the sweat Yes, it's more than the tears Not just enduring the sneers Nor inuring to leers More than bruises on the mat Or the time apart from family I know the effort that I give to it is an anomaly You say, when I'm famous I, should remember thee Funny, how all the masses Want credit for artistry I have To remind myself the past isn't Gomorrah I must Watch for bandits in the bushes like I'm Dora I see The crimson skies from which is rained many cries Storm approaching Not sparing any fauna or flora Touched, the sun Afore it rose to sky Now you want credit for each dawn Want your name written on horizon For cheering on sunrise from lawn The ancients thought the sun was close And present humans feed that lie They bathe in the warmth of a star And feel it's close by Doesn't matter if you were my roommate Unless you were my wombmate Please don't tell me you were with me since day one Alright mate It's not that you're late It's just that you can show up early to the coroner's office Cadaver's heart won't palpitate You're here for me now I believe that's what's important But if you are expecting accolades Watching gladiator from the stands Shouts of glee for bloody blades Hope you understand that you'll be truly disappointed
