Steps.



One foot Steps
In front of the other
Right, left
Through all the rubble
I’d get
Higher than Hubble
I guess
I’m having trouble

I stress..
& I find it harder to digest..
Follow my heart or I digress
& fall & get caught up in side quests?
Nah!

..but why is it always right or left?
..& why is it always red or blue?
Reminding me when it was mom or dad
Guess that I’m blessed that I got to choose

Picking a side in a court of law
Rip in the lines of my corduroy
Ripped from my home into custody
Kinda a lot for a little boy

But why did it feel like this system was overjoyed?

Shit ain’t gon make me a victim,
I found a riddim in middle of all the noise

But turning a kid to a bomb or a gun
& then catching em 2? & they call it “choice”..?

Gimme the phone, Ima call my boys
Til I find out I don’t got a voice

..But then I just had to find it
Inspector gadget, I went
Quiet in vested interest
I’d use silence & I distance..

..Mining my mind,
Minding my own.
Fine in my light,
Finding my glow,
Count my misses. I been tracing all my Steps.

..Back of my ends,
Back of my closet,
I collapsed,
I almost lost it
in the lint down in pocket of my sweats.

This the shit I don’t forget, all these Steps.

Steps

Elephant.



I tiptoe in a room full of Elephant,
dance elegant, body moving like agua.
Wounds relevant in familial drama
get the best of me as soon as I feel into the trauma.

Respectfully, I don't know how to process.
I just want my loved ones free from the bondage.
Seems like we've all had to suffer in silence..
Can I stop this? it's depressing..

(So) I tiptoe in a room for the hell of it.
Cause if i don't, you'd probably find me stuck down in the sediment,
w/ two left feet, & my ten toes cemented in
shoes concrete, in the repression of the medicine.

Instead, I keep it moving, 'cause I gotta speak my truth
through the broken body language I've been taught.
Floating like a black swan, through the valley & the shadows overwrought.
& they wonder why I rarely get caught up.. c'mon..

It's 'cause I, I tiptoe..

..I tiptoe in a room full of Elephant.
