lyrics

Welcome to the darkness of my mind
It’s the only place where my true artist shines
Memories: interior design
And my thoughts build one word at a time… uh
I swim laps in a sea of confusion
Run marathons down roads of illusions
I drive cars with no wheels
I stab hearts so I can feel
I tell the truth even when I’m lying.
My loudest riots are when I’m real quiet
I feel cold when the sun is beaming
Went evil angel searching with some real nice demons.

My mind is an enchanting thing
A ballroom where thoughts like to dance and sing
My mind is an open sea of poetry
And I swim vocally

My mind is an enchanting thing
A ballroom where thoughts like to dance and sing
My mind is an open sea of poetry
And I swim vocally

Woke up and I began dreaming
About restaurants with signs “No Eating”
I feel odd if I try to get even
I feel crazy searching for reason
I wish I controlled the weather
I’d make it rain everyday to feel better
They always be leaving when I enter
Thoughts out the box, somehow I feel centered
Body’s secluded, thoughts go on ventures
Overlooked by sensors that try to censor
Never really been all that social
Although I hope my vocals go global
Rather be noble than Hip-Hop mogul
Not that I’m boastful, just lyrically soulful
Through my words I plan to withstand time
Watch your step you’re walking near a land mind.


My mind is an enchanting thing
A ballroom where thoughts like to dance and sing
My mind is an open sea of poetry
And I swim vocally

My mind is an enchanting thing
A ballroom where thoughts like to dance and sing
My mind is an open sea of poetry
And I swim vocally
