[Verse 1: Mosi]
January 8th, Nineteen ninety-ninety six
A Colorado native who was born with many gifts
My father is a Mexican, my mother's a black woman
After they had me two pretty girls were soon a-comin'
Ebony, Shateiya, but we all have different dads
They my sisters, stickin' together was always the plan
Always called him dad, but there was a disconnection
One workin' and wasted and the other I think was straight flexin'
Or maybe locked up, I don't know, I haven't seen him
But either way I always told myself I'd never be him
My mama got a brain tumor and that changed her emotions
And abuse made me hollow and made me create my own oceans
Believe it or not, yo, but I do believe in Christ
But I struggle most times, because it doesn't feel right
But what is right, 'cause I struggle with that one too
I feel like a living God, but I feel somethin' big too
My mind's a universal computer on seven twenty fo'
Lived almost two decade and I'm ready for plenty mo'
Y'all claim that you do, but you barely even know me
Did you know that I find solace when it's cold and snowing
I love bowling, Boulder, bud, blazin'
Not bad b**hes, but I love hugs, kisses, d**, mangoes, pretty misses
All these b**hes want my nuts and digits but I tell 'em f** 'em
You the only girl for me is what I tell my s**y lover
Can't help wonder 'bout the subjects that we callin' love and life
If it's unconditional, rea**uring, then the love is right
I go into the light and then I am translucent
To transparent I'm pellucid gone limpid, you stuck and clueless
'Cause I'm flyin' over your head like a poisonous chemtrail
The lioness seduced me and she gave me her wet tail
I like to write the rhymes that will make you think twice
I love to write the rhymes that could maybe change your life
Or maybe save a life 'cause music really did save mine
I submitted to many trips, I intensely involved my mind
Into the process of evolving so I can reach my highest form
Of consciousness, positive mind state will take me to the door
I often overthink and then I get lost in my head
I fall down to the floor and pa** out 'cause that is my bed
Have I wished myself dead? Yes, but I keep on movin'
Because this is real life, and life ain't a happy movie
Introverted, stubborn, sometimes unstable, I'm human
But I know my calling, that is precisely what I am pursuing
So I keep on movin' through the days until I reach my destination
Highest elevation, burnt plantations during meditation
I am statin' that we equal
Nobody better than the other
Respect every woman 'cause if not now, then she'll be a mother
Different skin, eyes, voice, hair, you from another
But we all one in the universe my sis and brother
Through experience I learn and give it all back through wisdom
I am writin' this for the souls who happen to have that one vision
It has never left, it's right there and you really make it happen
When you have it, it feels too good it feels like it's really magic
So I say all this because I care for every soul
My life is now yours, yours will make me whole
