I got 10 digits twisted around the sum of my accomplishments
I’ve counted every mountain where the summit shows my signature
Higher than the clouds without assistance of intoxicants
I’ve mounted every doubtful outcome shown throughout the literature
I’ll never reach the peaks beyond my natural capacity
cause actually I’m boundless in my reach to grasp heights
My effort’s never bested by an ailment or a malady
higher than the ceiling feet are standing on stalactites
I’ll examine any planning in the conquest for ascension
I’ll build my own equipment if the tools are not invented
I’ll elevate the pro’se and con’text with better diction
My targets more like comets than a star in your dimension
I carry medals from lesser battles strapped in leather sacks
and add them to the weight I’m proud of having press upon my back
I shift from precipice to precipice and never rest or finish
cause what’s a precedent that doesn’t press the others to the limit
I’m an ardent rider hard survivor climbing for the atmosphere
to rest my brain amidst the rain when there aren’t any cabins here
My footsteps more like meteors that pound a crater beautifully
I question answers to the test and sentence thoughts to greater scrutiny
I warm my feet by embers from the king of the hill contenders
and all the second place performances that nobody remembers
I’ve realigned tides to rise in sequence to the weekends – see
the swells collide in time & readjust the season’s frequency
The hill’s alive from where I stand with music as my favorite thing
the bells beyond the heavens shower blessings when I make them ring
I’ll serenade the spring until I fall on summer’s innocence
and carry blossoms to the mountain in the winter of my discontent
Stand on tops so high my knees are sunken into freezing snow
above the island seas I watch the tropics in the breeze below
My looking glass is focused on the farthest planet’s coordinates
I hope its huge with mountains grown abundantly proportionate
I’m running out of anything to challenge destined escalation
It tests my patience waiting to advance the final destination

I’m running out of virtue, my patience is getting thin
and from these pages, if the word’s true – these stages is giving in
letting anyone in the ranges come to grace it’s planked construction
I’m pro-human life involvement and blind from blank consumption
Keep your water buckets handy this disease needs curing
ensuring wording going deeper and darker than your Keurig
I spit the spark that split the crystal brought the Mystics out to venture, shift
the dark and shared a light they’ve never seen because of censorship
I’m the best to press the pen against this world of cells and chemicals
and conjure up a spell creating life between the syllables
Ya wanna bet on innovation not accept the simulation
my success is not a threat it’s a pending situation
Put words into the canon like a puddle on the tide
cover carousels with clover wish you luck along the ride
I’m a house divided from the attic with academic papers
and the basement where the bass is sent through psychedelic vapors
I’m tasteless in pursuit of who’s the freshest on the avenue
cause flavor’s just a part of what I’m bringing better after you
Any star can shoot the moon and get a minute of attention
but few can steady carve a path committed to ascension
I’m a 49’er rhymer dropping nuggets out my pockets
my budget’s like the cockpit, don’t ever try and top it
I’m digging gems and dropping wisdom from my golden ground deposits
my shine’s applied to true letters while their hands are glued to goose feathers
I’ll battle the Bell Witch without the bayonets and helmets
my saber rests embellished in the blood of those who fell quick
And life won’t say I’m sorry for the hardships you’ve uncovered
that’s why your heat continues even once your fire’s smothered
So I leave ’em looking clueless standing lone and holding papers
and there’s nothing else in evidence than holes and smoking craters
My speeches show the weaknesses that makes your columns crumble
with the knowledge of the greatest minds that keep your college humble
I’m the first to burst your bubble and walk away with goals accomplished
while you’re waiting for your turn to bat I’m on another conquest

I chased truth down a rabbit hole and stole a pelt for honesty
my Wonderland beneath assumptions functions from the oddity
I thought that if I kept it there’ll be hell to pay eventually
but knew the path to happiness is built upon simplicity
I’ve never bested challengers with fire from my verbiage
but I’ve shrunken mighty fighters with some words of chosen purpose
Some think your violent furnace is accepted with a warning
turning wedding cake relations to a case of global warming
So I never break the paper wrapping presents for the morning
til the pressure’s off the rapier that the fire poker’s forming
How’s a crucifix addiction measure up to common wisdom
if mother nature naturally would go against convention
Is there life beyond existence when the seconds get to millions
is there hope for any future if you’ve second-guessed the children
There’s opinions when I think and breathe and anything my tongue hits
I’m biased when I’m done with judging other people’s judgements
The same song repeats and turns in circles as it plays on
if words are worthless than I’m giving yall the finger all the day long
And if that’s the case no feelings were ever hurt in my performance
cause my rabbit cut the chorus growing rapidly abhorrent
I’m the spokesman of my company for the times that we’re enjoying
reinvesting every earning taking care of my employee
I’m sweating from the mission, bleeding love and dripping intimacy
or is it vision vividly perceiving wicked wizardry
eclipsed with bickering literacy
and masked in sibling idiocy
No man can be an island but from the end of the peninsula, you wouldn’t know the difference
-so I know your mental image
and if it’s isolation any islander desires
don’t blame your fellow countrymen you’ve sunken through the mires
Better beg for silent mercy, bend your knees and what have you
but only once you’ve found the truth can life be truly valued
