[Intro]
Charles Hamilton!
[Verse 1]
Thinking out loud, laying on a cloud
There's only 10 clouds (right?), and one of which you're not allowed
Who can stop me now?
Watching the ground from a place called now
Even as an old poster, you can't take Charles down
If this was a bicycle sale (buy sickle cell), shop around
Find a cure for whatever sickness you wish was not a-round
Or does sickness only love richness?
I guess a bugged sentence from me is the degree of a bugged chemist
Too bad I never went to school for my gifts
The role of a king. The tools of a prince
Flow of a sink. I move with a twist
Clothes mostly pink. Shoes that can fit
That's all I need to be seen by the naked eye
ALL of me can be seen as forsaken time
Cuz I have waited. Been Violated
Even before the finer days find a way to become MY days
[Hook]
Anytime I'm sittin alone, I simply get in the zone, no need to pick up the phone and get to driftin
When nobody's around, I just listen to sound, think of verbs and nouns and put it in a sentence
When I get in the mood, this the thing that I do, and I give it to you just so you can listen
And I won't stop for a minute
And I won't stop for a minute
[Verse 2]
Too verbose, I suppose
Close to the throne, but given less hope when alone
When I get letters from fans that say my sh** helps them get better
It makes me deal with this sh1t better
Memories creeping in to the present time
Going through hell, paying for a check that Heaven signed that bounced
I submitted a song to God but couldn't tell her what the record was behind the bounce
Told her "Relax. I can find it out."
She didn't like my tone. It was time to get out
Well God, I'm sorry. I found it
It's called "Always". By a group named "All Days"
So It wasn't a fluke. I really love you
You might think it's life. It's really us two
I don't know what's left to say
Why don't I let the hook be the collection plate?
[Hook]
Anytime I'm sittin alone, I simply get in the zone, no need to pick up the phone and get to driftin
When nobody's around, I just listen to sound, think of verbs and nouns and put it in a sentence
When I get in the mood, this the thing that I do, and I give it to you just so you can listen
And I won't stop for a minute
And I won't stop for a minute
[Verse 3]
It's like when Jay said "I jack, I rob, I sin"
I'm an iMac. iPod. 3rdGen
Cuz I rap like I got iGin
The digital liquor that I share with my friends
My bad. I rock. Nice chin
Well I'm Jab. I box. Tyson
Try jabs. I block. I win
I'm Zab. Why not? Fight him
Cuz I black. I'm hot. I'm sick
I tried crack, tried pot, it's quite grim
But life has my spot right in the sky
That's why God asked men to be nice cats
Guys, stop lyin
I fight cla**. Might not, might win
But my might is why the liars are frightened
The terror alert has been heightened
For those that say they don't like him
I enjoy what I do. It's like probiking
I would still be this driven with no stipend
In touch with my own spirits. Ill ghostwriting
So fast I broke lightning with no writing. Started writing, paper now won't go by him
(hook)
Anytime I'm sittin alone, I simply get in the zone, no need to pick up the phone and get to driftin
When nobody's around, I just listen to sound, think of verbs and nouns and put it in a sentence
When I get in the mood, this the thing that I do, and I give it to you just so you can listen
And I won't stop for a minute
And I won't stop for a minute
