Let this one sink in
'Cos i put my ink 
Into this wrinkle 
In the crisp whites of your life 
But I'm not taking a knife
I'm not losing my wife
No I'm not losing my mind again 
Syke
I'm messing 
I'm still mud wrestling with my pen 
Just a repeat offender 
Still doing it again
May the muses give their blessings 
Here's a message
Small confession 
Don't take umbrage 
Pay attention
Here's a lesson  

Shani when you play with your words 
The ink can bleed and it hurts
I think the healing I'm feeling 
Is fleeting and its absurd
Shani when you play with your words 
Its like you play with the world 
And babe for better or worse 
I think they should be concerned

Oh yeah
Gather round kids
Gotta tell you all about this story
That my grandpa told me 
Listen closely
There was a glorious King
A long time ago
Who really wanted to know 
What the future foretold
So he called attention
Get the nobles here 
I need suggestions
Got these tensions
Get the court in congregation 
Marshall mongrels of the nation 
At their station 
Fetch 'em fresh for the session
I need prognostication

Aides awaited 
Ministers debated 
Though they hate their leader
These eager beaver readers of tea leaves 
Evil people hiding meat cleavers in their sleeves

'Ello sir 
It's the Jester 
I got no respect 
I may jest 
But lest we forget the truth 
Let's say the sooth 
Instead in jest
And get the best 
Palm reader
See I stay bowed down 
But jokers have clout
Cos a fool with a cap 
Can convince the crown
I even got a coupon to get TWO on 
BOGOF
Finish all the talkin' fellas
Finna find two fortune tellers
Ye ain't Kanye Jesus 
You can get out 
Now leave us

Shani when you play with your words
The ink can bleed and it hurts  
I think the healing I'm feeling 
Is fleeting and it's absurd
Shani when you play with your words 
It's like you play with the world 
And babe for better or worse 
I think they should be concerned

I scry with my Lil' eye 
Said the one known to always tell the truth
Blood in the lines
I see your family will  
Die before you
No crew left to cry
No kith no heirs 
To light a funeral pyre for you
Look at the bright side 
All their frequent flier miles for you
Come here Lil' scryer 
Call me sire
My kith, my kin, my guys 
Got pliers 
Tire irons 
45s 
FIRE
We boil alive in oil boy 
Maybe I gotta get a shallow fry for you
Boo hoo 
Zed's dead
Who knew
Now Fred on the other hand
Never lied to another man
Just his wife, mistress, sidechick and Fleshlight
The long lines show 
Grave delays, slow days
Old age, bone pain 
And the cocaine 
So says 
You're gonna have a long life my lord
Pop the dom all night or golf 
To the fag end of the back nine I saw
No longer lived a king or queen 
Who hit the green before Methusalah
Ah true playa Soothsayer 
Your words are sweet to my ear and soul
With your words, I live 
To you, I give here 
Gold

Story now ends 
But the lesson begins
Zed's dead 
Fred's living
For sayin' the same thing

Shani when you play with your words 
It's like a gift and a curse
When I'm feeling the meaning 
It's something I can't return 
Shani when you play with your words 
The ink can bleed and it hurts 
I think the healing I'm feeling is fleeting
And it's absurd

Shani when you play with your words 
It's like you play with the world 
And babe for better or worse 
I think they should be concerned
Shani when you play with your words 
It's like you play with the world 
And babe for better or worse 
I think they should be concerned

Right kids 
The secret you see 
To being Fred 
Is using words with 
Tact and diplomacy
Listen to me 
Call me the messenger 
The jester 
Cunning linguist 
Tongue twisted repeat offender 
Or a modern day Kissinger 
Dip-lomacy 
Ship-lomacy
Honeyed tongues making bad news so sa-weet
So re-write 
Seek a mic 
Speak right 
Delight 
Speak on up 
Speak now 
Times up 
Peace out
