draw

15 to life maintaining the strife
caged right on time to spite the fight
reached some height
reached some tight
level of sight
might i
be too deep to plant that seed?
might i
be too right to evoke that speed?
the quickness
the slip
the moves
the eclipse
might i
be too down to get back-up?
might i
get around to say wassup?
no doubt
it’s my life
it’s my em-oh
my hustle
my flow
my dabble
my toe
shivering warm in the bottomless pool
my dive
through the too thick layer of too cool
my push off the wall
my flip of the script
my sober blackout
my sunken cruise ship
ask me just right and i’ll shoot from the hip

    Come hear me good brothers come here one and all
    Don’t brag about standing or you’ll surely fall
    You’re shinin’ your light yes and shine if you should
    You’re so heavenly minded and you’re no earthly good
    No earthly good you are no earthly good
    You’re so heavenly minded you’re no earthly good
    You’re shinin’ your light yes and shine if you should
    You’re so heavenly minded and you’re no earthly good

    Come here me good sisters you’re salt of the earth
    If your salt isn’t salted then what is it worth
    You could give someone a cool drink if you would
    You’re so heavenly minded and you’re no earthly good
    No earthly good you are no earthly good
    You’re so heavenly minded you’re no earthly good
    You could give someone a cool drink if you would
    You’re so heavenly minded and you’re no earthly good

    If you’re holdin’ heaven then spread it around
    There are hungry hands reaching up here from the ground
    Move over and share the high ground where you stood
    So heavenly minded and you’re no earthly good
    No earthly good you are no earthly good
    You’re so heavenly minded you’re no earthly good
    Move over and share the high ground where you stood
    So heavenly minded and you’re no earthly good
    No earthly good…
