Arte Soy

I got a message for all the masses
my third eye
wears 3-D glasses

you may get high
but you’ll never surpass this

when you bring the static
I got homeostasis

everybody’s trying to rob me of my calm
it’s like playing hot potato
with an activated bomb

but when I get the feeling that my blood is getting warm
I just chill out
take no pills out
and I open up my palm

you can call me a pacifist
because I write my rhymes so I don’t pass a fist

it’s hard to tell the difference between anger and love
when you meet a pretty girl
and then you strangle her with hugs

so I drink
kava kava and not vodka

so I can chug a lug

and be a mellow fellow
when I pass out on the rug

when it comes to fighting
I just sit down and I write it
I’m a big guy pound for pound
so I can’t get all too excited

it only takes a small flame for wick to get lighted
you’ll only have yourself to blame
when your ignorance ignites it

this world’s a powder keg so if you’re carrying a load
you had best express yourself
or you’re gonna explode.
