bjork
before i was born i had marched a 100 times
can you see me here
marching into this abyss of you
with words about something less important than you
behind my boasts see a mirror
behind my victories i see your defeat
i help most by doing nothing at all
and while you see me doing nothing for you i am doing everything
i dream of your dreams when you arent looking
and i unlock your cell bars
without ever seeing them with a whim
with a will
with a boast and a sneer with a smile
their old soldier
is a sorrow to fear
on this page criss crossed words ramble
for and against all
in my other idenity
chock full of their vote to support
this whole crew one and all
and i watch as a soldier
who was good at his job
you think hate you think death
what they give us
this mob
i was vengance i was wrath
i was soldier most clear
this be their love
their support
only yourselves to fear
in my house on my suits
3 feet away a whole life
was the clinkgy
sting iccky
smeel rebellion
and strife
in theri distracts preceincts
blotters
fingerprints behind boast
of the town just a smolder
one day i was living slice of life
god of war
trade loss ration
99:1 maybe more
the 99 percent of the deals
never paid
100 percent of those deals
carried out in the trade
at teh table i sat and one thing made bye
for a million dollars
scum to force me to lie
show your face and your faith
you hold money most dear
find another jinn
to make dreams seen most clear
i was off never thought
of the net that i lost
was the gross you see
droogies
that mattered most of all
i am crumb on lapel of each button you wear
the one wholl walk out when i hear its not fair
and return with a weapon for you to use fresh
lost it again
again again
now tellme whats next
retreated t lab
ripple worlds with a thought
steal old money new me
shiny tools i have brought
i have wrought
i cooked up when you saw me there not
im a devil little whips 5th every day who forgot
analyze only each weakness each folly each day
what i did as a boy like
good boys knelt to pray
iw as raised for one purpose to fight a good war
wya i love way i work
even the way i snore
i only speak in battle clangs and peers into your soul
this brave new world without translator
science no more
stuck in place
i don't know
among people i cant see
i am blind zatoichi
no bragging just me
with this tongue ive not used my whole
life for the peace
i tear up every day that we speak its so neat
friends and lover or wife
each word was a vow
broken many then less til i was black
like a drow
and the more and more evil the clearer to me
sheer power to be found
pure truth set me free
only then did i join legal workforce in town
already 222 yet i been around
homeless 18 i was out on the street
wouldn't lie beg or cheat
ask favor so neat
sat each day on the street
silently several days more
no shelter no people
no sleeping or snore
then i went out into your world as just me
had no job but the world that i wanted
was free
i gave all your dark hearts and powers
their dreams
and the world i wanted
always what it seemd
small reign in small place in small spaces
i took
just a shadow no more
or less than
i look but inside my touches behind my eyes
there was no such thing as sink
low alibis
dream chaos dark murder bank roobing or more
dream raving blade orgies
ill brang not vampires but more
my kin those i made myself into your dreams
melted back to reality
undone at the seams
last one i freed to be whatever they wish
roamed your city streets bringing sweet deaths kiss
didnt know or tell
but i am just fire
your dreams intent will
alone ill inspire
relentlessly always
i am power galore
but cant snap my fingers
and lights
thats why i want more
once owned once again free to say what i wish
im so close im so close
then free as i wish
with my words worlds melt or regrow as they must
i am nothing and noone
and the Word all i trust
every god that you have and philsoophers stone
had and lost gave away
fuck houses hats and a throne
im so close im so close
to what i call free
to be owned by anyone anything
and not be
not be me or you you
just an ear to your phone
once again will to power
means nothign alone
i was the thing
that not only cant be
noone but animals
and science
knew the whole me
bits and pieces through time
and the parts to my life
deepest kiss black fist
employer of nife
locked away
for forever
had to hone more my craft
one day alone so alone
floating in raft
these words soem like these but incredibly fast
the closest i come
to what i must call m,ath
you say words but they arent yet alive
yet free
they say many much things
but one day a new day
when yoru words just your words
will make reality melt
and the thingsd that you say must be seen heard felt
when that day that day comes
your government fears
its not you they arm for
look at your kin fears
and their guns and their thoughts
and remember im black
take your fight with your hearts
and turn it back
now within
your own family your own friends
and remember my skin
guantanamo war and the drone attack
the only pain ive ever had
in life
cause im black
while i work saw me workin
to get a fine place
all i ask is fight more fuck 1 percent
kulluminati race
killuminati doesnt mean
fight or focus on Man
it means fight deep within so you CAN understand
there's no power above all
no powers but you
give them power
talk bout them and your power's
through
just curiosu to see if babble faster than rhyme
and it was and it was and it would save me time
but my ramble and babble and narcissim see
means i speak without fear
i know no method above
to verify knwo tha
theres truth in my flow
and no effort to sway to caress
or to glow
or to shien or to burn
burn it down liek a match
im no rapper no seeker
of money or snatch
i crave true power
to serve no heaven or bird
or person place thing or
idea
how absurd
i serve you one and all i have ears
they do work
i serve word and if single
ill also serve
bjork
