Inspired by Joe Budden and Talib Kweli

lyrics

Always wanted to be an oldie son, like old Ben Kenobi / Obi Wan
Gandalf or Giles from Buffy,
Show respect to youth so they show me some.
Or Victor Meldrew... "I DON'T BELIIIEVE IT!"
Eternal youth spitting from thrones in Egypt.
Richter scales blow fuses when he spits.
if they ride my wave know just know they're sea sick.
I want integrity... like Joe Budden.
Bars with no fronting.
2Pac me against the world, pre-death row, wit no thuggin.
I'm not saying don't love them but I'm married to the game.
Most rapper's not boyfriend material.. and no husband.
No R Kelly but Beep beep, my phone's buzzin, it's a Talib Kweli
retweet, my bros sonning racists cos it's so troubling,
racist Twitter trolls? Low esteem, just seem to know nothing,
but I won't let them get me angry, they'd just love me to throw something.
I throw nothing... But shade.
Then send love cuz 'm so loving.
Nice couch, nice house, a far more than nice gal, so unless I'm booked to perform, probably won't go clubbing.
Unless she's coming and it's blessed like some good ol' dubbing.
More openness n less judgement, what do we get from judging?
Truth is self evident, but wise man know they know nothing.
Planet Hoth coldest front n ...the warmest hugs n
Memories of bredrin recovering from the... strongest drugs n
Gratitude for the nice now.
Hope for the future. Coconut sugar n spice, wow. Never stop asking why n how.
Like a Taoist master, ancient but so alive now, it makes sense, I like Tao,
Read the Tao teh Ching aged twelve but sometimes feel less wise now.
