about
Bodizepha was born and raised in Woodstock, NY and has traveled throughout the world. His music is largely influenced by the likes of Bob Marley, Talib Kweli, Bob Dylan and Nas; speaking on personal, social and cultural issues of today. He is a ‘throwback’ artist that represents hip-hop as it was originally created. This is Bodizepha's nine song debut album, "Truth Seeker," What sets Bodizepha apart from the rest? His poetic point of view and un-apologetic representation of all that is true. The "Truth Seeker" LP will make you bounce to the beats and stir your curiosity with the lyrical martial art form that is Bodizepha. He is currently performing every week and is steadily building a loyal fan base. I invite you to listen to his music and read his lyrics and be part of this movement.

Activism
Verse 1:
An open space
Softens the mood
Often confused
The wind gust
Stirs the paradox
I'm stuck
Reduced to dust
In what must
Be repressed
Something new
Looking for a hole
To shine through
Sweetest melodies
They're ringing true
Like Lao Tzu
Now that's living
No telling what’s The wisdom
In my dominion
Unstoppable Cataclysm
Rap activism
That's my opinion
Rigorous in my
Perception
Second guessing
Miss-directions
I test dimensions
Click with this
And get connections
Try to resist
But you are
Help less
So surrender to the
Effervescent Wellness
The great amender
Time bender
Mood lifter
Page flipper
Feeding off the
Gravediggers
Strange liquor
Got me in a
Daze quicker
Writing my
Greatest scripture
I'm the shameless
Time sifter
Find that
Devine whisper
Verse 2:
Flowing like
The rivers
When the levies Bust
I'm a free man!
And still I trust
In my fam
For laughs
The world is Changing fast
With my words I Cast... hope
Fame and cash, will They last.... nope
And so I
Laugh and live those
Twitter quotes
Smoke inside my
Middle throat
Do what's spoke
Away I go
Note inside a glass -
Like a bottle boat
Messages float
To travel coasts
From now
Until forever
Bodizepha
I'm a newer
Much smoother
Crowd pleaser
Proud hippie
Vibe enthuser
Mentally looser
Vision inducer
Thrill pursuing
Video producer
Ear amusing
Laser shooter
Handsome suitor
Love seducer
While I'm
Planting seeds
For the future
Taste shapers
I'm a hit maker
Innovator
Driven by the haters
Fakers, imitators, Discriminators
Darth Vader Infiltrators
Intimidators
Who wanna test?
I spark a match and
Burn you Instigators.
Verse 3:
I Got
Rhythm infused
A new point of view
Miss-construed
In your head
In time it's inevitable
To see my
Visions in raps
Over tracks Incredible
Intentions sensible
The truth is Indispensable
I'm just doing me
A drunk
Swerving version
Slamming shots
Swearing a lot
I got
Smoking hot
Music blaring
Caring not
Abandon random Reaching
Breathing reason
Into the evening
Leaving trails to Dreaming
Setting sail
Like seamen
On brain waves
Moving forward
Secret keeping
Something to
Believe in
Other than
Reaching dough
I'm spitting gold
To even it
An immediate
Strictly strategic
Soul seeping flow
So watch my Brand grow
Can you handle?
Endless messages
Below the
Surface sediment
Hear the resonance
Echo echo then elevate the evidence
Hip hop
Elements over
Sweeping melodies
That bleed relevance.

Truth Seekers
Intro:
Truth lies
Under many lies
Just try
Open up your eyes
Eyes eyes
Verse 1:
This goes out to the truth seekers
Fed up with the nonsense
Levels we aspire to
Skills we acquire
Are liars the people we admire
No surrender no retreat no retire no defeat
Old concepts
Don't connect
To the objects
We desire
Tree of knowledge seeker
Endless features
Treasure keeper
Rest in peacer
Record reacher
Righteous path believer
I'm a walking contradiction
Pleasure seeking
Reaching for the quick fix
Conscious leaking liquid
As I drip to the beat
It’s the remix
That I live through
And when I pass by
Past lives
Re-visit all the sites
Where my ego died
Am I too weak
To let it rest in peace
I find the answers when I
Least expect
The dots connect
I re collect my oldest memories
And yet I still
Re-invent what's real
Chorus:
If you never loose you'll never gain
Cherish love and pain
They will lead you in the right way
And one bright day
You will see
You'll find a truth seeker in me
You'll see
Truth seeker in me
Verse 2:
The beat
That's my truth serum
When I write
I'm in delirium
Release the fear with-in
Voices reel me in
Beyond what I think
When I sink into
The mood I'm in
My problems seem to
Duplicate and magnify
The more I try
To release the fire
Find myself myself myself
Burning with desire
Some love me for what I possess
I take advantage of the fake-ness
I'm weightless
In the troubled times
Seeming problems
Heavy on my mind
Character flaws
Pushing me to say
I am the cause
Claiming ignorance
Ignoring common sense
At my own expense
Through the eye of the needle
Is sanity
Sharing hallucinations
With other people?
It’s a twisted trip
To be honest
I'm ready for the progress
Elevated conscious
Making the move
To greener grass
Blues the past
Critical mass
To make it last
Chorus
If you never loose you'll never gain
Cherish love and pain
They will lead you in the right way
And one bright day
You will see
You'll find a truth seeker in me
Verse-3
Ideals all religions
Could agree on
From aristocrats
To peons
This will last
For eons
Universal truth
What we on
Beyond a phenom
When we’re gone
Youth got something
To keep on
A brilliant fool
Using tools that’r
Exception to the rules
Basking in the silence
Of a sleeping giant
Form an alliance
With other artists
So the worlds not cathartic
We recharge it
Moving mountains
With the music
See I generate a target
See what generations started
Art of the warrior market
I do a show
And it's all the way live!
I check the news
But it's all about lies
So I excuse
How you're confused
Sticking to the
Truth that I choose
I'm fitting to cruise
Right into the night and
Follow the moon
Sparking a fuse
With these views
And by the light
I'm consumed
And by the light
I'm consumed
Chorus
If you never loose you'll never gain
Cherish love and pain
They will lead you in the right way
And one bright day
You will see
You'll find a truth seeker in me
Truth seeker in me
Truth seeker in me

Easy Days
Verse-1
I remember easy days
Before the cruel realities
Conflicts and all the casualties
Whether on salary
Unemployed happily
Or paid hourly
If hard work don't kill
It'll reveal strong will
Iron lung
Getting things done
I seal the deal
While having fun
In the car
Music blasting
Far from the drama
Everlasting
Basking in the sun
Laughing
Get the fuck from under
Where your shadows casting
Feel the classic flow
Fluent in the language of
The old sutras
Revealer
To see clearer
The great healer
Music
It's therapeutic
Easy to loose it
In the sad mess
Just because
You rhyme
Don't mean
You make sense
Hence to the whack ness
I claim abstinence
Getting shit off my chest
With out the laxatives
Getting paid in happiness
Relax and live luminous
The catalyst
For how I'm doing this
Chorus:
Come on baby
You could take a load off
Rock with me
We could hit the bar
And we could go hard
Rock with me
Then we'll rock the party
We could take off
Rock with me
And baby we could party all night long
Rock with me
Rock with me
Cause the night is
Soo in-vi-ting
& rock with me
Cause the beat
Just fit right in
& rock with me
Cause the words
That I'm writing
Enlighten beings
With double meanings
I'm guaranteeing
Seeing
Verse-2
Spirits rising
Before you're leaving
I'm enterprising
Feel the rhythm
Exercising
Lyrical martial arts
Kicking over
Smooth beat break parts
Yup yup
We're off to a great start!
Why all the confusion
It's a mixed up
Musical infusion
Soothing to listen
Using rhythm to
Find a suitable solution
With the beat bumping
I'm stress free
Get some free loving
But you gotta be
Where I can see
Dancing next to me
Stop fronting
Yes you
You cutie little munchkin
Tell your girls
To stop fussing
While discussing
You and I
You say you are shy
Who am I?
Caught up in this
Cutie pie
If you'd like
Give me a try
Why those other guys
Get by with those
Cheesy lines
I guarantee to make your
Mood high
Ride on the music
Take off
Let's fly
Just you and I
Chorus:
Come on baby
You could take a load off
Rock with me
We could hit the bar
And we could go hard
Rock with me
Then we'll rock the party
We could take off
Rock with me
And baby we could party all night long
Rock with me
Rock with me
Cause the night is
Soo in-vi-ting
& rock with me
Cause the beat
Just fit right in
& rock with me
Cause the words
That I'm writing
writing writing
Verse 3:
She asked just
How far I can take it?
I said
It’ll be as hard as I make it
I've never worked harder
But it's the art
That I'm patient
When the times right
Turn into an
Armored undercover agent
I'm that fork in the socket
Electrical currents connected
Shocking!
Never doing what's expected
My music's electrocuted
So use it
To get the fuck up
And start to do shit!
Every word is double rooted
It's well suited
That's the beauty
That I fuse it
Getting lost up in
The smoothness
Its time to switch it up
You're barley
Moving loosely
Shook
Scary movies
Shooting
Like Israeli Uzi's
Who's next
To get their
Rudeness checked
Just loose the
Vexed look
Or catch my
Left hook
Ha ha, I'm having fun
Can't take nothing from me
Receiving invitations
From the flyest honey bunnies
To the after after party
No undies
Chorus:
Come on baby
You could take a load off
Rock with me
We could hit the bar
And we could go hard
Rock with me
Then we'll rock the party
We could take off
Rock with me
And baby we could party all night long
Rock with me
Rock with me
Cause the night is
Soo in-vi-ting
& rock with me
Cause the beat
Just fit right in
& rock with me

Enlighten beings
With double meanings

Rock with me

Progressive Perspective
What I'm gonna talk about
I'm sure you won't be able to turn your head
Verse 1:
The stakes are
Steady rising
They told me that
Life is diamonds
But all I see
Is the dirt and grime and
It's time I started appreciating
Life is climbing, striving, surviving
I'd say I like to be alive and
I'm always rising
Take the time to have a laugh
Share a little class
A goal without a timeline
That's just a dream
Forward as in motion
Emotional roller-coaster
I know it's never over
Bodizepha remember the name
Been here for generations
All that was and is yet to stand
No exaggeration
We are gonna die
Who am I?
Soaking in the sweat
From hustling
Plus I remember all the days
Plotting just to get a foot in
Yea I wanna get that pudding
But who doesn't
Wouldn't you wanna get it
How ironic
I talk about it
Then I got it
Is that logic?
Are you aware of the topic or
The jewel as I drop it
Revealing realness in an instant
Wise ears know the difference
Chorus:
What I'm
Speaking
Cause the world to
Stop sleeping
Put your hands up
Keep reaching
Who will be the one
To make the game
Even
Wake up and let the light
Seep in
Can't turn your head
From the world
Leaving
Now is the time
Right away
To get to thrill
Seeking
Because now… is… just…
All there is
So I'm jumping in
Verse 2:
What's real to you
Isn't necessarily real to me
You feeling me
No I'm not sure you're
Actually hearing me
I'ma break my theory down
To each his own
Experiences got you
On the path you on
But we living in the past
Projecting that into the future
Until you get this
There ain't nothing
I can do for you
The missing element
Living inside the present
Without it's so irrelevant
Celibate mind states
Can't penetrate you
Virgins to the sunlight
Victim of the crime rate
Elevate above the
Grind and blind hate
The world is cruel and beautiful
That's what I'm used to
In school they never gave me
The tools that's really useful
Through learning I stay youthful
Motivation is sharing the stories
That I live through
Walk in my shoes
Before assuming to have clues
Who's who
In the sands of time
Stepping across the line they drew
And who to listen to
Under the sun
There's one thing new
Do you
Until you get this for yourself
There's nothing new
Passing judgment
Gets a fuck you
Nothing to loose
Except you
Accept you
Accept you.
Chorus:
What I'm speaking
Cause the world
To stop sleeping
Put your hands up
Keep reaching
Who will be the one
To make the game even
Wake up and let the light seep in
I said it makes no difference who you are
Wake up and let the light seep in
I said it makes no difference who you are
Let the light seep in
I said it makes no difference who you are
Let the light seep in
Or what color you happen to be
Verse 3:
So what's a bullet
If you're not afraid of dying
Take it
My situations just as fucked up
As I choose to make it
You wanna battle who's
Experiences where more tragic
A fanatic
Feeding off the static
Enigmatic, that's a riddle
Standing in the middle
Mistakes they can be fatal
Passing them down prenatal
Erratically visions surface
Sinking in pity
No purpose, so worthless
Wasted words
With which what was
Rather than what's next
Bodizepha I'm a suspect
Wanted for killing time
While opening minds
With a subject
You ain't touched yet
I'm retrospective
Aggressive incentives
Progressive perspective
Chorus:
What I'm speaking
Cause the world
To stop sleeping
Put your hands up
Keep reaching
Who will be the one
To make the game even
Wake up and let the light seep in
I said it makes no difference who you are
Wake up and let the light seep in
I said it makes no difference who you are
Let the light seep in
I said it makes no difference who you are
Wake up and let the light seep in
Or what color you happen to be
And let the light seep in
I'm sure you won't be able to turn your head

Timeless
Verse -1
Them na want me
In the school system
I'd teach them real wisdom
What they gonna do
With a bunch of
Wise children?
Like holes to fill in
Can't rape the willing
Brain cells they killing
Scape goat the villains
Society crying and dying
Asking why
Standing idly by
To the sky
Starring at the dawn
This song the magic wand
And when I'm gone
They'll try and
Confine the limitless
Refine the remnants
Define the sentiment
Re-assign the benefits
Messing with the messages
Incline the mind-less
Mainstream to find this
Time-less
Treasure chest
Evidence of cleaver-ness
Bodizepha represent
Last breath regrets
Never as good as it gets
Till I'm dead
Twisted in the same spot
Un-earth the grave plot
Under worth-ed and under feed
And I can't stop
Speaking of all the things
You might have thought
But never said
Chorus:
Walking down the street
Looking at the sky
Walking down the street
Smog in the eyes
Verse 2:
Slow mo
Moving through bureaucracy
That's so old
And out dated
Stop hating
I'm a proud maven
Saving a haven
From them dark ravens
We paving a way
To break through
In life, no take two
Tremendous skills starting it
Aggressively pursuing targets
Investing in repressive markets
Sinking
Regardless what you're thinking
Never tuff decisions
Stardust inscriptions
Word is bond
Enough wishing
Since birth I'm blessed
But connected to the curse
Business unfinished on earth
Broken promises diminish worth
What's worse?
Lack of discipline
Knowing means nothing
Assuming everyone
Is doing something
Dead before inception
Setting up
A new connection
Focusing the question
In tuned to the rhythm
Giving my impressions
Here's the biz
Re-defining the plot
Underlining what it is
While undermining what it's not
Chorus:
Walking down the street
Looking at the sky
Walking down the street
Smog in the eyes
Verse 3:
Done pretending
I'm investing time
In sessions
Inventing
Parallel dimensions
Self-defeating prophecies
Deceiving me
Illusions with consistency
An individual
Subject to ridicule
Accept it as
The way I live
I'm sick of screaming
Taking life for what it is
With out adding meaning
Seems minimal but critical
Awareness
An essential evolution
Potential, revels in collaboration
Clearing smog
Reaching new levels
Dealing in precious metals
Healing infections devils
Feeling trust disheveled
My soul rebel active
Valiant efforts tragic
Nations out of balance
Using talents to construct
Creative transformation
Agent for emancipation
Climbing towards a tipping point
Insight & reason
Leaning towards
The mood to listen
Soon to be
My intuition
Clarity
In the mirror
Stands my reality
The most daring plan
In humanity
Chorus:
Walking down the street
Looking at the sky
Walking down the street
Smog in the eyes

A New Beginning
Verse 1:
Girl you got my
Soul singing
I've been waiting
For a new beginning
Many things
That I was missing
Wishing in due time
Turn pain into innovation
I look to you for inspiration
The way you move
My muse
You fuse
How it used to be
To living life
That's new to me
Your eyes
Poetry in motion
Windows of devotion
Wide open
Quoting love songs
To keep you hoping
It'll last forever
Fearing it won’t
Really ready
Still willing
To take the plunge
Jump into the unknown
For the sake of love
I'd be a fool
Not to share this
Fun with you
Connected at the hip
Since we met eyes
Beautiful and wise.
Verse 2:
It's those
Subtle clues minimal
Giving me strength
From ridicule
Our bond is indivisible
My truth is an integral
Exception to the ridicule
A breaking from the usual
Seeking something suitable
You ask me if you’re beautiful
The answer is a steady yes
Your fly-ness tremendous
Your hair, your dress
Your lips, your breasts
Loathing all my loneliness
Holding this harmonious
Connection
Soaking in
Songs of redemption
Soul rebel
Growing as hurt settles
Seeming you release
My inner beast
Your passion pulls
My heart stings
Love you even when
Your farts stink
Sink into that inner peace
To which you reach
Verse 3:
I see your face
When my eyes close
You'll be the one
That I chose
Haters try
To stifle what I know
So it's vital
I stay
Hiking the high road
So easy to
Get caught up in jealousy
Don't worry
You telling me
Still
I hate starving for
Attention it's ill
Committing felonies
Kill enemies
For all your energy
To fill my memories
Not many
In the way that I will
In the way that I will
You're my
Partner in crime
That's down to ride
As we rise above
The ties that bind
Color blind
To the color lines
Flipping under covers
Quickly undercover lover
Licking on your sexy skin
Let me in
I'm an eager pleaser
As I go deeper
Find the truth
In your smooth features
The reason I live
You're my undisputable Motivation to remember
The most beautiful word
If it were true
Would be forever

Profit
You mean you didn't know about
What was going on?
You mean you didn't see
The right commit the wrong?
You mean you didn't care?
What you never like ah ah ah ah ah
Verse 1:
Into a system
Set to fail
Planned obsoletion
Miss leading resources
Disconnected from the people
An evil put to trap and hold back
3 dollars for water?
Fuck that!
How they gonna charge
For what was given
Privatize the world
In which we're living
Call me a menace
I take it grinning
False sense of independence
Got me spinning
Wishing it wasn't so
Dependent on economies
Money market hypocrisies
Stocks and guns
No one's doing shit
I'm not the only one
Slave to my income
World bank
The monatizer
Scheme deviser
Feeding off
None the wiser
Financial sodomizer
You and I
Are not the driver
Dead ghost riders
Deniers & freedom fighters
Misers and 25 to lifers
Force feed by liars
Sidewinders
Same old one liner
Waiting for the world to change
Sand timer running low
Now flip it over go!
Chorus:
You mean you didn't know about
What was going on?
You mean you didn't see
The right commit the wrong?
You mean you didn't care?
What you never liked
You mean you didn't know about
What was going on?
You mean you didn't see
The right commit the wrong?
You mean you didn't care?
What you never liked
Verse 2:
Start doing done hoping
This that shit to
Get your eyes open
Rise quoting
Lyrics smoking
Lies choking
Revolutions bring demise
Soaking in a divine notions
Feeding off the land
And the natural oceans
Feel it down
To my core
Siphon off the source
I'm what you've been waiting for
Score, I'm all yours
Energy is an infinite distinction
I seed and sprout and new beginning
Living out the coolest mission
I'm just doing me
Disregard your lack of listening
What we started
Someones finishing
Envisioning futures
That we're living
I'm a dream catcher
With a complex
Schemers hatching nonsense
Clogging up the flow through
Obsessing over things to do
Why don't we listen
To what we know is true
Through my spirit
I hear it and notice you
I know you feel it
But don't wanna be
The first to do it, right?
I'll be the one to break the ice
Release the fear
That keeps us tight
Chorus:
You mean you didn't know about
What was going on
You mean you didn't see
The right commit the wrong
You mean you didn't care
What you never liked
You mean you didn't know about
What was going on
You mean you didn't see
The right commit the wrong
You mean you didn't care
What you never liked >>> like ah ah ah ah ah
Verse 3:
Hypocrites they shade the light
My lungs I'm lending for the fight
This is fun and I'm still young
So why not
Do what's right?
As easy as doing nothing
This is worth discussing
Material lusting
Combusting
Back to imperial dustings
New wars
Destroy and start construction
The things
We never had
That we don't even
Know to miss
The greed is built in
Guaranteed to fail
When profit is the Holy Grail
No chance of getting
Out of debt
Send me home with
No respect
The tables turn
I burn my checks
They're systems old and rotten
Technology for the soul
From top to bottom
Gone but not forgotten
Got me rocking
Making vacant space
Saving face
An infection laced with venom
Seen optimistic pretending
Depressing me
Until I realized
I'm the sign of the times
Bodizepha blurring lines
Spear heading progression
With my mind as my weapon
I'm shinning from heaven
John Lennon
Chorus:
You mean you didn't know about
What was going on?
You mean you didn't see
The right commit the wrong?
You mean you didn't care?
What you never liked?
You mean you didn't know about
What was going on?
You mean you didn't see
The right commit the wrong?
You mean you didn't care?
What you never liked?

You Coming With?
Man, it's a new day and age
I've been so patient
Things are changing fast
Sometimes you've got to
See things in the third person
Just to put it in perspective
So many different ways to go
Man, I know which way I'm going
But, what I wanna know is
You coming with?
Verse 1:
You coming with?
This is history
Nowadays it’s tricky
To know who's
Sticking with me
Selective demographic picky
Delegate responsibility
No shifty iffy lames
Riding with me
I prefer
Collective grinding
In perfect timing
Get it done
With the quickness
In terms of my condition
Perfection is a sick-ness
My case worsen
Co-ersing
3rd person
Perspectives
Genetics mixed
With calisthenics
Photographic memories
Combust in magnetic
Energy
I trust by design
I'm inclined with
Telepathic tendencies
Actively defying gravity
That's just a taste
Of my alchemy
No-name status
Elevated
Sticking with it
Practice made it holographic
Neo-classic under-rated
That is
Until disseminated.
Chorus:
Paving my own road
Is all that matters to me
It's easier to follow
A well-traveled road
That's not the way I go
So are you coming with?
Verse_2
New media's flooded
With the copy cat
Wack-ness
With a few pragmatic
Sharp cactus
Rap factions
I be the latter
I'm a rappers rapper
Thinking out the square box
I'm oval
My flow cash crops
Rare opal bare rocks
Vocal with my
Make a change mind frame
Non-stop, ingrained
When my cause is greater
Than my personal gain
A favor for a favor
I seen my people struggling
I say a little brain
A little muscling
Trying to get my
Russel on Simmons
Till I'm gone
My grand hustle on
Build a brand winning
Withstand the
Winter freeze
Even through
I stay scorching
Sell the sizzle
Not the steak
Awake my alias
Vicariously living
Through my sound scape
I'll take you where
The ground shakes
Quick before you
Call it quits
I hope you
Listen deep
Past riches
My movements
Well connected
Respected like M J’s
Last wishes.
Chorus:
Paving my own road
Is all that matters to me
It's easier to follow
A well-traveled road
That's not the way I go
So are you coming with?
Verse 3:
Really it's an honor
Being a first responder
On-lookers waiting
Re-acting to the popular
I'm a videographer
Literally capturing
The obvious
Legitimate predictions
Showing ominous
So get on this
Heroic consciences
Confidence breeds character
Reconnaissance gatherer
From ammeter to on tour
Check my
Stoic opulence
Say it louder
Like you're selling it
Projecting dominance
No stopping this
Power shift
What's missing?
Substance
A means to share it
To lift awareness
A flow that's careless
In all fairness
If you’re confused
Check dictionary
This is revelation rap
I can't loose
I'm over-coming
Your assumptions
I'm not Kid Rock
Or the Chief Rocka
Bodizepha
I'm the tree monster
You never know
Who's next to blow
Plant seeds grow
Forever bringing
Grand endeavors.
Chorus:
Paving my own road
Is all that matters to me
It's easier to follow
A well-traveled road
That's not the way I go
So are you coming with?

Dreaming
Verse 1:
I’m waking while
Living in dreams
Find a vacant space
To let my brain soak
Being that quote
I spoke
That's the meaning of dope
Walking tight ropes
Scheming heathens
With mirrors and smoke
Try confusing the
Realness I wrote
Smoke fire to ash
Desires will past
Want it all
But will it all last?
Still I grind
Investing time
Like I own it
But it's not mine
I wake repeating melodies
Dreaming of future memories
Possibilities create results
Lighting bolts with
Inner sight
See a whisper
On a winter night
With a little light
Take a picture
That's life.
Chorus:
American Dream
The American
We living the
American Dream
The American Dream
The American Dream
Verse 2
I've been blessed
With tragedies
That mold a man
When tested got a
Steady hand
You say I can't
I say I can
Executing plans
Representing sturdy land
Opening doors
Taking a stand
Yet to reach
5 hundred grand
A hundred thousand
Million fans like the
Son of Sam
Form into
A grain of sand
Situated where I'm sitting
Looking like a
Prime position
To win it big
Through crates we picking
Listening to
Greatest hits we dig
Creating lists
What to accomplish
On different topics
Kicking ass and
Staying modest
That’s the hardest
Part of being a
Lyrical martial artist
Running up in the
Deadly zone
Set it right
Sacrificing sleepless nights.
Chorus:
American dream
The American dream
We living the
American dream
The American dream
We got the
American dream
The American dream
We living the
American dream
The American dream
Verse 3:
I see my ego receding
That's my point of view
The appointed few
That's needed
To be the new leaders
See it too
Taking a ride
Out of my mind
Evicted
Places only
Few can find
No signs telling distance
That fine line
Is still a misprint?
Between what’s yours and mine
Scheming up some mischief
I keep my eyes open
Sleeping
That's a luxury
Funny how the
Ladies love me
When I'm living comfortably
Money never made me
So I'm never
Falling suddenly
And even at the
Bottom
The earth still under me
Coming up struggling
Drumming up a hustle
Was timid
Now
The limits
I'm pushing
So vivid
I live it.
