3.27.08 : to New York City

New York City
the spark that set me off
at light speed bringing all my friends
and everyone like me
it's the heart that guides my Quest


i'm a radiooooohead

straight jackets for Cage, bomb beats for my basement
watch me blow up

it was in the dark when a sign turned on
and suddenly I knew I had to Walk with my head up
and just be me , songs bring me back then
when i didn't know the world was wrong
that it spins but rarely turns
when a disc revolving was an album
could barely earn enough to burn
still had some money leftover for I am...
Hip-Hop from Rakim to Binary Star
from the Bronx boogie to Snoops perm
from the '88 stretch town car to the '08 range rover
I grew up as if I was looking over biggie smalls shoulders
as he wrote pages and pages
then one day he didn't need to write anymore

try to call it just words I'd see you fall on the floor
from the weight of your pinocchio nose
I know lies lead to the words supposed to be
not what is
and I plan to be


New York's Finest


through honesty, compassion and common sense
words of socrates, and poets with french accents
history lessons, catch spike lee movies
and words from God's son Nas
and I am God's son Thomas
walkin' on these same paths, cracked streets
worried about crack fiends getting back at you
for not serving them scenes in the 25th hour
when the movie is my life and i'm the Star
see my tomorrow as luxury skyscrapers rise
and paper flies
your faith in me is a sure thing if we've ever met,
and if we've never met here I am, and there you are
oh how technology lets me speak across the universe
and reach further than my ancestors could have ever dreamed

New York City
the spark that set me off
at light speed bringing all my friends
and everyone like me
it's the heart that guides my quest
