Musical
Endeva
I attempt to write somthin cleva
about a musical endeva
As I wake up and
look into the light
I wait for an image
that's right
to guide my flight
into this unknown
world of smiling faces
the
dangerous places
the
hustle and the bustle of the rat races
but
whats different in my case is
I turn
off the noise of the street
While I
move my feet
to a
smooth as beat
of rhythm
and blues
countin
the 1’s and 2’s
of this
melody that’s got me bemused
and
this is my chance to pay my dues
to the
sweet sounds I let flow inside me
to the
melody that guides me
along
the crowded streets beside me
and
around the tall buildings that hide me
from
the bright sunbeams illuminating the sky
and
through this melody I do more than try
to fly
that high
I get
that high
As soon
as I hear the first lick of the base
My heart
starts to race
While the
drums kick in and keep the pace
And now
the rythems flowing
So I
start showing
All that
I’m knowing
About the
riff of a high hat
The hip
hop beat that’s so phat
The doo
wop that puts that
Snap in
yo finger
And bump
in yo hip
I’m
bitin my lip
And tryin
to grip
The hip
this beat puts in “hip-nosis”
Pressin
the phones to my ears now I’m learnin through osmosis
And I can’t
figure out just what the proper dose is
So I’m
overloading on these tracks
Boogy-in
behind your backs
Listenin
to the sound of the new jacks
And I gotta
say
This rhythm
has got me to stay
And all
I wanna do is play
This track
over again
What you
thought I was done?
Shit, I’m
just getting started
Describin
the lyrics of the broken hearted
The dearly
departed
And about
the MC’s that recognized their dreams and darted
From their
home town
To the
big city lights
Rappin and
writin into endless nights
While keepin
their sights
On new
musical heights
I’m
talkin bout rhymes for “Ms. Fat Booty”
Independent
women buyin their own rings
Digable
Planets “A Nickel Bag of Funk”
And
Lauryn Hill’s “That Thing,” that thing that thiiiiing
The
lyrics Eve spits when she wants to know who’s that girl
While Luda
wants to know what’s your fantasy
Aaliyah
wants to rock the boat
While J.T.
just wants to rock your body
I’m
tellin ya’ll
I’m digging
on everything from Talib’s “Just to Get By”
To Afroman’s
“Because I Got High”
From the
old school tribe to the new fun vibe
It ain’t
hard to describe the feelins these beats put inside me
And although
it may seem appealing to some
I won’t
give away that secret inside you
That can
find that rhythm too
A feeling
you carry with you always and foreva
I hope
you’ve enjoyed this musical endeva
