lyrics

I meditate high above the city streets
Breathe trees deep for that moment of peace
And feel the remedy
To shift thru a difficult phase
Inhale heavenly haze, rolled up in a biblical page
Thru the 3rd eye, see my life in bird’s eye
To catch a glimpse of the future past the physical age
Escape from the same analytical rage
That bring viruses to minds like they digital plagues
I'm on a search for that moment of truth
To find my time
I feel the warmth from invisible rays
Lord knows I gotsta’ make it through this critical stage
Sometimes start a rhyme, won’t be finished for days
Mos Def, roll up that spinach an blaze
Let me hit ‘em with finishing praise
3rd eye shift by learning the ways of the wise
Like shadows of the minds when they turn into rays
Embrace the moment, let the seconds’ turn into days
An let my lyrics float wit the sky
Like I'm burning the page
With the hope that the energy flow
Across the world, like a wings flap turn into waves
My mind rise high as I'm burnin’ the haze
No longer hypnotized by cheese an learnin’ the maze
I wake from a dream, feel a purpose to breath
Plant my seed in the earth, with the earth in my seed
I'm on a search…

To see through facades, rise over the fog
And I can feel it in my heart like I'm closer to god
Cuz the truth comes only when your eyes can see
Now if you ready, take a ride wit me, rise wit me
To see through facades, rise over the fog
And feel it in your soul like you closer to god
Cuz the truth right there for your eyes to see
Now we ain’t lost in the game with our minds deceived
We on this earth…

It’s for a reason
Let ‘em know

(Marv Ellis)
They say the sky’s the limit
It might take 3 times til I finish
It might take 3 lives just to get it
But I plan to meet my quota
Movin’ through the line of scrimmage
I stand humbled by the limits of my own self
A human being with awareness of my own guilt
I meditate till time in the now melts
‘Til you hear it in my voice and my rhyme’s felt
Too many people lose hope cuz this life’s hard
I’m tryin’ to maintain my focus and take charge
I am a soldier of this culture with a full-clip
Storming the beaches of Normandy on a full ship
We are the grains of sand that make the time slip
Through the glass that reflects how we all live
If we neglect that we’re small and the worlds big
Than we’ll snap from the pressure like a dry twig
It takes more to survive than what seems real
I build faith when I share love and cook meals
My spark came from flint rock and cold steel
I’m still broke but this moment has a good feel
I’m still poised to make points and stay sharp
And hunt light when the winter makes the world dark
And build patterns of the truth ‘til it’s real art
I stick close to the one’s I love the most like I’m ghost

I’m here but I’m not
I move through the walls but I’m solid like a rock
I’m ghost, alone by myself
I roam through the world transparent and stealth
I’m ghost, I touch you with the verse
Connect another dot ‘til the real truth hurts
I’m ghost, I’m gone with the wind
I breathe to release my peace from within
