Honestly

lyrics

Honestly, I’m feelin’ the euphoria,
As I’m just explorin’ the drums as they beat around the sun,
I have come to conclude that we’re coming unglued,
Perspectives are skewed
And no one knows exactly just what to do
So out with the old, and in with the new
Whatever you feel, let it do what it do
Rethink your strategy, forget what you knew
Reevaluate because them old days are through
And I know you never heard it like this
I wrote it like that and word it like this
Murderous raps from the abyss
Never that whack, only the gifts
Only those beats that are givin’ you fits
Hands up high and you’re bendin’ your wrist
DJ soundscape blendin’ with this
Kabir Sen in the mix and Ben with the bits
Straight out of ‘76
Now we got it covered like a total eclipse

Honestly, we’re all over this rap thing
This make your toes tap thing
This make your hands clap thing
Honestly, we’re all over the map with
Beats we can rap with
Forwards or Backwards
Honestly, we’re just takin’ you higher
With beats that are fire
And words that inspire
Honestly, the pioneers we admire
The drums, the bars, the love and desire

Honestly, I’m feelin’ the anxiety
As I reflect on the challenges trying me
Trouble’s in my sight, I can feel it eyeing me
More than you or me though, it runs throughout society
So we sit and wait quietly,
And reflect upon the situation silently
Waitin’ for the day when Covid goes away
While some go out and play with more vibrancy
And we soak up our concerns with our privacy
And stumble through these motions so lifelessly
And since earlier this year we dealt with different fear
While careless people live their lives so mindlessly
And I’m tryin’ to see a way out of this mess
So stuck in the mud, I’m wonderin’ how did we get
So polarized, it’s time to mobilize but we’re colonized
Non-aligned, pre-occupied with the other side

Honestly, we’re all over this rap thing
This make your toes tap thing
This make your hands clap thing
Honestly, we’re all over the map with
Beats we can rap with
Forwards or Backwards
Honestly, we’re just takin’ you higher
With beats that are fire
And words that inspire
Honestly, the pioneers we admire
The drums, the bars, the love and desire
