LYRICS: What’s the greatest moment you ever had in your life? And what’s the possibility you could experience it twice? And would that suffice? Fine line between passion and vice I fight for what’s right, come with the compassion of christ Ain’t asking the price, you can dim the lights, it’s a heist And taking nearly everything that’s in sight, except advice So roll the dice, or think twice, and h...

LYRICS: I love taking long walks just to clear the mind Feed the soul and try to find a way to retake control Put on the headphones, step out in the sunshine Sometimes I study rhymes, other times I write mine This beat reminds me of 89, back then I had wild rhymes Changing pattens every few lines, redefining the guidelines My time is coming, I’m in the front of the line But still feel like living...

LYRICS: I’m so devoted to speaking coded that you might notice My flow is a form of focus, informed by poets Some may quote it, others may find it bogus And question what my approach is...dully noted But, I’m not truly insulted, this is my white lotus I don’t follow no man, there is no modern Moses I suppose if death lurks, there’s gon’ be vultures And there’s a lot to pick over, these so called s...

Ok, this is this is second in a likely ongoing series of “songs” that are one-part story rhyme and one part narration to complete the story. And unintentionally, just realizing it right now actually, both of these first two are about 1985, and the first was about UTFO (titled "Trusting Instincts" and out everywhere now!), and this one is another story of the Summer of 1985 where I thought I was go...

With Interest by RedefineHipHop

This song was made using a mixture of improv and detailed editing, a style I call Random Planning. It’s a fun technique that I do from time to time, mainly as a writing exercise when I’m trying to get inspired to write, but I wanted to do one with the specific intention of sharing the process, hence the title, “Trusting Instincts”. At the time when I originally wrote this, a year ago, I had UTFO o...

Welcoming Ceremony Instrumental by RedefineHipHop

Who does the mirror see? I’m not asking that curiously Thats me talking to my future self fearlessly Apparently people treat your kindness so carelessly So carefully I separate the favors from the charity Inherently, I’m on the verge of some clarity Change life’s rules, like Nea said, until it’s fair to me Prepared to be different than all things that’s been compared me And currently trying to tra...

Weight of a Feather by RedefineHipHop

I’m not fine, peace of mind stuck at a stop sign Besides rhymes, I feel like there’s holes in my plot line Caught trying to make the devil promise he’d stop lying Calm as I am, probably seems like that I’m not trying My triumph is I’m a master of odd science Not god or highness, nor am I a peasant or a tyrant I’d rather spend my time writing Words that’s awe inspiring Searching my whole environmen...

Welcoming Ceremony (Introduction) by RedefineHipHop

Yeah, I’m showing grace in my trails, Patient but I’ll stand my ground, plant feet down Hmmm…just me and my family now Ban me? HOW!? I don’t even plan to be around See, I’m bound for a place where each face has smiles Including mine, on my way, and my pace allows Me to race for miles, yeah, embrace the clouds… Let me thoughts bounce around Then rain down to keep me aligned with the ground That’s n...

Same To Me (Melancholy) It’s plain to see, nightmares have came to be And, painfully, that’s not so strange to me Explain to me why they act so angrily Draining me, just to be is living dangerously But thankfully, plan to fight till we live chain-free No changing me, I only evolve and problem solve Break down walls, and always trying to tame the beast To say the least, I’m on a quest for peace In...

In ’23… I’mma be ’3 Making my best song’s ever, true fresh MC I love to write, it helps calm the stress in me Especially…when I let the style flow free Then I…pick up the pieces of the word debris Arrange em…perfectly for the world to see …Or rather hear, but also occurred to me The visual impact helps the verse to be Seen + heard, I mull over every word Nouns and verbs, inspired by the sounds of...

Thoughts transition to words under prime conditions Primal visions, rhymes that arouse suspicion A mile a minute, I guess the direction’s intended But then again, time and distance doesn’t measure commitment Or consequences, we only catch the truth through glimpses The proof’s expensive, cost your peace of mind, plus interest My brain’s a prism, I went from pot to piston You got to listen to fully...

Low fruit or high risk, grow through a crisis Or cave to your vices, lose sight of what life is It’s priceless what you can learn from what the price is I write THIS in a state of being that feels lifeless The MIC IS my confession booth, the truth’s timeless Despondent but still hope that I’m known for my kindness And guidance, and never choosing finance over science So let me smell the roses whil...

These are dark times Ripe for some from the heart rhymes Here’s mine, heartbreaking like the prison pipeline It’s fight time, late news if you’re just now seeing the clues A REMINDER for those who I am passionately speaking to We can do anything we truly strive for We live through some hard times, fighting these mind wars I find FLAWS in self then I alter my views Like water; fuse with any state y...
