I am your messenger
I'm here to tell you what I've heard
I will share your light
So you can rest easy tonight
You were a man of many worlds
drifting in and out of time's big whirl
rising above material goods
to a celestial plane that no one goes
Oooooh oooooh oooooh ooooooh
Traveling through time's big great ocean
sifting through the heaven's cosmos
I see you existing there before me
In a constant state and pain free
Oooohhh oooooohhhh oooooohhhh ooooohh
I am your messenger
I'm here to tell you what I've heard
I will share your light
So you can rest easy tonight

Perpetual Motion

I'm here to make you forget,
make a bet and lose your debt,
There's work to be done and you're not done, yet,
It's as if you've got to have some sort of message,
Just to say 'here's a sick beat, send it'
I've got nothing to say in my mind,
I'm just walking around this world cold and blind,
you're staring at me and i'm starting at you,
through this steely cage and its a zoo,
I don't know where I'm going and I don't know where I've been,
Lord knows that I spin once a day,
I'm in perpetual motion
and there's going to be some hell to pay
Get down, turn your life around,
even when it doesn't seem worth it
Get down turn your life around,
it doesn't get any easier when you're not fighting for it
You've got no talent, no challenge, no balance,
and a life to still manage,
it's as if you've got to have some sort of expression,
just to say 'here's a sick beat, send it'
I've got nothing to say in my mind,
I'm just walking around this world cold and blind,
you're staring at me and i'm starting at you,
through this steely cage and its a zoo,
I don't know where I'm going and I don't know where I've been,
Lord knows that I spin once a day,
I'm in perpetual motion
and there's going to be some hell to pay
Get down, turn your life around,
even when it doesn't seem worth it
Get down turn your life around,
it doesn't get any easier when you're not fighting for it

Come With Me

We're all just one big family,
brothers and sisters it's no cliche,
wondering what to be,
treating each other right is what we need
come with me and I'll show you the sky
come with and I'll teach you how to fly
Come with me and we'll soar above the world
Come with me and we'll soar underneath the moon
Throwing word stones into the air
Where they land nobody cares
It's raining on all of us
Lusting egos always a bust
Come with me and I'll show you the sky
come with me and I'll teach you how to fly
come with me and we'll soar above the world
come with me and we'll soar underneath the moon
Don't you ever get tired of people fighting all the time? I do.
Get off my yard you dang kids! I'm going to call your mothers!
Don't make me come out there!
Keep it down!
Get a job!

Slowdown Fever
03:40

This one is for all the lovers out there that dare to care without and fear, pull your loved ones close, and very near.
I'm just looking for that slowdown fever,
You know I want to come home to you,
I just need you to open your world,
and let me on through,
We don't have to go out tonight,
anything lazy we will do,
watch a movie, or sleep on the couch,
as long as I'm with you
Slowdown with me tonight,
We're going to be together,
You and me, babe, alone
With a little bit of that slowdown fever,
Look across the room and into my eyes,
Staring away you know I want you,
Tugging on my shirt,
As we're slipping off our shoes,
Slowdown with me tonight,
We're going to be together,
You and me, babe, alone,
With a little bit of slowdown fever.
I'm just looking for that slowdown fever,
You know I want to come home to you,
I just need you to open your world,
and let me on through.

Mighty Superfly

He wakes up in the morning and combs his hair,
Puts on his loafers and walks down the stairs,
Grabs the keys to his 'rati revving into the days,
He can assure his life ain't boring,
He takes off with a screech and a flash,
In search of new threads, he ain't short on cash,
his suit is silk and made from a million bucks,
just ask him, he don't give a fuck
Phone blowing up, people trying to reach him,
He too busy busting his biceps at the gym,
He's looking swole, smelling good, proper and pimp,
Call the phonebook, there's no curbing this Satoriasis,
High rises, expensive lunches, but no job promotions,
There's only one reason why, he owns it
He don't believe in a thing called luck,
You're not making it to the top if you don't a fuck
He's mighty superfly
Feeling good, fire in his eyes,
Master of his own domain,
You're going to know his name,
Let me explain
At night he lays down and he rests his head,
You know he's sleeping on california-king sized bed,
Dreaming about tomorrow and what comes next,
Money and Love, Money and Love it's how he gets his fix,
Tomorrow is a new day and a clean slate,
Tabula Rasa but death is the true fate,
Earning everything he has there was no lightening that struck,
You won't make nothing if you don't give a fuck,
And there you go again calling him a douche,
He's in the game, you're on the sideline barely getting loose,
Great spirits always encounter opposition from mediocre minds,
I'm just saying, I'm just quotin Albert Einstein,
You're insecurities seep out your soul hole,
Self love, self care, slow roll,
Take it from the superfly who knows how to rock,
Grow that lion's heart and stop giving a fuck.
He's mighty superfly
Feeling good, fire in his eyes,
Master of his own domain,
You're going to know his name,
Let me explain

What's in Your Heart?

Living day in and day out
I got a simple question to talk about
What's in your heart?
I want to know
Let's learn together and here we go
Is it love or is it hate?
Maybe you believe in free will or maybe you believe in fate,
You could be reconciling life's impermanence,
down to the years, months, days, and even seconds
You see, nobody leaves this world alive,
the bold, the beautiful, rich the powerful collecting dimes,
the athlete, the artist, the rapper spittin' rhymes,
Who are we to criticize?
There's a world out there for you to travel,
looking to save some souls from the devil?
Plenty of room for both of us on a cultural level,
Tell me a joke, I want to hear something clever,
You could be into making babies,
and I am down with that,
or filling your body up with all them tats,
You could do both and I think that's cool,
Please just send your kids to school.
You see, I don't care what you do,
as long as you're not out there hurtin' other fools,
wonder and wander about,
and if you need to, shout, shout, shout,
Live life to its fullest and get it from the start,
ask yourself that one little thing,
What's in your heart?
Living day in and day out
I got a simple question to talk about
What's in your heart?
I want to know
Let's learn together and here we go
