Can't Find Ground

from The Good Life (If You Only Knew) by Kabir Sen

/

about

fiction with a dose of reality...

lyrics

Lost in a vortex, no escape
Can’t tell what’s real or fake
And I’m tryin’ to come up for air but I (can’t find ground)
Lost down in the depths of the sea
Can’t locate you or me
And I’m tryin’ to come up for air but I (can’t find ground)

Calm down, breathe a little
Don’t frown weave a riddle
Words are the bow, my mind is the fiddle
I found these lyrics in the middle of the road
They were looking lost and tryin’ to hitchhike home
So I took em on a ride with my mind
A flight up right up to the planets
I got control like Janet, you’ll never understand it
But the power of my mind, I won’t take it for granted
I’m a junkie for jams to be candid
My testimony’s strong it won’t be recanted
My musical ideas are seeds to be planted
I sprinkle ‘em around the garden, then I vanish
You’ll be nourished, soon to flourish, filled with courage
Eat your porridge, scratch the surface, don’t be nervous, it’s time to find your purpose, but in earnest it is worth it, you really should unearth it, that’s for certain, be your best version of a person….

Lost in a vortex, no escape
Can’t tell what’s real or fake
And I’m tryin’ to come up for air but I (can’t find ground)
Lost down in the depths of the sea
Can’t locate you or me
And I’m tryin’ to come up for air but I (can’t find ground)

album 7 type longevity
Such a treat, the beat creates chemistry
Don't bunsen burn your bridges, that's really not good business,
Being real with you will be my legacy
Stay away from bitterness and jealousy
Yeah I'll kill' em with kindness and pleasantries,
Thich Nhat Hanh of hip hop bout to drop
A few jewels with dope rhymes and melodies
People rock to the rhythm and the remedies
And the times? We try to stay ahead of these,
but we never over-hype, just reach for new heights
in our quest to write songs successfully
Capture a feelin' so heavenly,
rhymes are rivers flowin' endlessly,
they curve and bend, they swerve and blend fiction with a dose of reality

Lost in a vortex, no escape
Can’t tell what’s real or fake
And I’m tryin’ to come up for air but I (can’t find ground)
Lost down in the depths of the sea
Can’t locate you or me
And I’m tryin’ to come up for air but I (can’t find ground)
