Raised instead of being brought up
Luminaries gather around like moths dying around light to fuck up
Evolve the mind
Not just textbook juice and ketchup
Recall the lines
If they don't communicate the sketchup
CPR, low grade ECG, theatre lying on the stretcher
Desktop, baggy souls, bodybags laid on America
Press stop, if I am too sentimental or abstract
Hoodrats and cool cats,
Hoodlums and crude parts
Turning tables for the coroner
Who's dead? The nurse or the baby pictured on sonogram?
There's art in slanging grams
Donned with ego, that's why the persona never change
95 thesis
King Junior and the grand match
Mandela poems versus Idi Amin's pulp
Battle griots in sick holes without gloves
Moi's bridge crumble in Kenyatta's graves
Octaves, octo-generian
Suave, clean cut, for vegetarians
New breeds, missing labels on the seeds
So now the whole park is a rare form of species
Or new look speed limits
Black spots for trying to figure my semantics
It's o-ch-uk-a
Term paper's due
And the sem is wet and fluid
Pimp chokora na chupa few za glue
Au limbs ifyekwe nakupa mawaidha for your crew
Mabati kwa mbao, terrified na hakuna kitu unaezado
Stock exchange, uchumi bandia, bidha peksen
Throw in a bit of cover kwa kanda
Au synth na samplers uone kitu naeza do na Mike Wudz
Karibu school
Thoughts provoking, jazzy Queen Sugar tukitunga hizi blues
