SteveFoxNYC: Feeling Fine

Right now, I feel right cuz I'm aware of all of my wrongs,
Everything I feel, I just jot it all in the poems,
I'm a fan of it, at the same time I'll open a can of it,
Some of the cats ain't talking substance, they should be banned from it.
I feel important, cuz my perspective is respectable, I feel...
I love hard so disrespect I won't feel,
I don't chose to, vote that in, I veto that ill,
Relax then chill, what am I suppose to say?
Most times, I don't say what I'm suppose to say,
And for that my past chick said my tact was off,
I work and smart, deactivate the slack button,
This is the beginning of the end, I ain't never ever lacked nothing.
Ain't nobody of significance died since Pac.
And nowadays these rapper have the never to become self-compared to Pac?
Ok, your mind advances but your actions wont.
Cuz you won't let them, you need to choose a new selection.
I be so appalled like Kanye,
Put in work for 8 hours and it feels like a long day.
I'm just an instrument listening to what the song say...
I'm just a journalist, please list to what the poem say.
They say if you can make it here, you can make it anywhere.
To me, making it here is like making it anywhere.
That might be slightly naive and I could be off kilter,
But I believe what I believe, so that's just my feelings.
My truth, I took my heart off of my sleeve and put it back in my chest.
I worked hard writing bars for this chick, but I ain't prove myself,
So, she ain't paid me yet although, I was just doing exactly what I was called fo'
And although some of these rappers don't wanna accept it,
You can't mimic the greats with a flow and a necklace,
You could be left neckless with no need for a head,
Cuz if your heart ain't in it, you can never see past the bread,
And water, that's all that's needed to sustain in this day and age,
I ask questions so my soul doesn't end up in a cage and my pen up in a rage,
My anger becomes vibrations and my ex-chick is ridiculous for damaging my tools,
So with success, I plan to damage the fools,
You snooze you lose and I know cuz I been sleep often.
That's the only way I can speak on it.
Cuz through my experiences, I have embraced it all and there is nothing I'll keep from it.
I'm a writer slash poet slash mc slash rapper.
That's 1/4 thinker, 1/4 lover, 1/4 history and 1/4 backwards....
I read often cuz that's how I learn how to speak,
And I'm happy often cuz that's how I learned how to weep.
The reapers off me, So I'ma leave when God calls for me.
I treat the illusion of the devil like the wrong part of me,
Embrace it, face it...sit it down and talk to it...
Tell it what to do and then force it to walk thru it.
This is the road less traveled, I let my mind unravel cuz I don't want to be stuck in my skull.
That's like the peanuts stuck in the hull...
Having a bitter taste and make the face wrinkle..
Making the mouth spit....
More gifts than Kris Kringle...
More spliff than Mr. Carter, I'm more dope than heroin.
I get headaches, I think them away, no excederin.
A Memphis Renassiance, through the line like D. McFadden,
With a pen I'm Aladdin magic,
With a slice of Idi Amin madness, I grew up tragic...
But I ain't dead yet, I'm just startin to live, gettin revvved up,
And even ran yet.
So you can bet you're life on my art.
Priceless is the art...I do it to save lives.
Yours and mine....
Now I rewind back to the time...
When I wrote what I feel,
Now I feel just fine!
