Verse III:
 
  • Hey yo Mister Herb
  • ''Yes that's my name son, what's the word?''
  • Come through to my studio so you can enhance my verb
  • ''All right''
  • Chill with me, lounge with me, make my rhymes tight
  • ''Now you've been rapping for a week?''
  • Yes yes, I'm overnight
  • ''Uh huh''
 
This is a mind state most wack MC's be in.
Thinking they can smoke a blunt once and become an emcee.
The way I see things you'll see clearly.
Making quotes like 'Lootpack rocks yearly'
 
  • Mister Herb?
  • ''Yes''
  • I need your opinion, my mind's a blur
  • ''OK, smoke with me and I'll make your rhymes slur''
  • How's that?
  • ''I'll call my homeboy, his nickname's sherm, he'll fill you in, before you know your memory's short term...and you'll be like 'I can crush any emcees' and 'I have the illest case of the munchies' ''
  • Please keep doin' what you're doin, enhancin' my vocalision cuz the only time I see you is with infared vision.

The Preparation

Praise The Creator most high, as he is the essence of my totality.
How many men, amen, our men.
 
As the eclipse is in preparation, we will begin at the dawn.
Know now that the verbal planet has pivoted into a stance of darkness, meaning lack of light.
 
The age of spirit preparation has transformed to an age of war, to an age of pain, to an age of paiganism.
 
Many observers have been offended by the further off-balance of the scales.
Specific observers in my presence are The Zonepriests, the conditioners of the evolution of my spirit.
 
I am Aphron Zu J, Zoneweilder of the Ubermystic Techniques, The Immortal Verbal Tones.
 
I have been summoned to rejoin my flesh which was reborn there many times before.
Always for The Creator, always for The Balance, and always for The Order.
 
I have unlocked the Earth Core's Temple, to begin the awakening of the Gods.
Here in the temple I have completed the rhythmic chapters, the Seeds Of Evolution.
 
We will start with the medicine for the senses...
 
Rhythmical and vibrational harmony...

Mortals

A mortal asked me why I'm so harsh on mortals, and why are they so different from the Gods.
 
 
Only mortals would allow wisdom and field to exchange place with intellect and dilusion.
 
Only mortal minds battle power to scar generations and dynasty form.
 
Only mortals would allow sexual preference to become a separate race.
 
Only mortals would allow their children to be taught by those who can be bought, or sex for grade.
 
Only mortals would allow chemical warfare to override natural instincts of healing.
 
Only mortals would allow leadership without knowledge of self, to lead the already confused.
 
Only mortals would allow the undisciplined to inherit the Earth.
 
 
So don't ask me stupid questions.
 

Damu Blessings from the Earth's core

Peace and greetings from the Earth's core.
 
I am Master China, royal conditioner, personal guardian and the Damu elected to the young lord Ta Han Zu.
All praise is due to The Creator, and his selection of the young lord to serve as the conductor to bring forth the seeds of evolution.
 
As for you brainless, mindless fools who chose to be foes in the face of a master as he travelled the road to completion; I say to you and yours...
 
Peace

Adventures in New Bohemia

I speak low with a lump in my throat, and a lung full of smoke, runnin' dope in my humble abode
It's bohemia.
Sepia tone memorabilia, soak up the media. Daytime TVs gettin' kinda tedious.
Trapped with the social deviants in the confines of my immediate future (is fruitless).
 
I'm through fuckin' tutors. Dust so thick it dates back to the Tudors
Livin' in student digs on tins of tuna (who spent the rent down the boozer?!).
We sip beers and split hairs over current affairs and any unwelcome guests get chucked down the stairs.
 
The bass drum peddle my wares, through the final affair.

Positive influences

I was asked:
'Are you coming as a positive influence?'
 
And I replied:
 
I refuse to get caught up in the negative and positive gain.
I take the good with the bad, and sometimes I do a little bit of both.
But, the difference is, I know how to present myself.
 
If any of you should take an example from me, its that I don't sell my ass for glamour.
I'm not commercial meaning plastic; I'm not a role model meaning a 'mask wearer'.
Am I a positive influence? No, why would you ask me that?
 
I remember when people like myself were considered communist for our ideals.
I remember being pushed behind bleep sounds and blackboards because of a word that humanist and racial harmony people couldn't figure out.
I remember when funk wasn't accepted.
 
And now you can play, say, or PAY your way to stardom, which is such a high influence to many.
And if you recognise me, that's just not my call.
Just consider me Yin and Yang, because the world doesn't want positive influences - they're too deep, continuing to praise death and negativity.

Blunted conversations

It all started on a rainy cornish day. my man musto put me up for the day. the badger rolled a blunt and smashed out, then the blunt started talking to me.
take a hit and i will crown you a king, as long as you smoke, you will shine like a diamond ring!
i was looking at it through the clouds of smoke, trying to figure out where it's mouth is at, half trippin' out.
so i took a toke, like 'fuck it, i'm hard' and the smoke hit me like a cannonball.
staggerin down halls, holdin the walls
you mix me with liquor and you'll feel sicker
and to this day i can still hear the blunt talking to me.
as long as i smoke, i will shine like a diamond ring!

The Problem With The World Today

Dig this shit.
 
Earlier on, after falling asleep in one of my lectures at college, it came to me.
It being the reason of the demise of our lovely world in these recent years.
While sitting there, in a state of semi-conciousness, it all became very clear.
 
There's too many fucking Irish people fighting over a religion that denies them the authority to be fighting eachother in the first place.
The problem is that not enough people smoke Buddah, and everyone STILL thinks Technics make the best turntables.
 
Technics are the Microsoft of their industry - Functional, simple, frustrating, too popular for their own good, and guilty of raping the market - preventing significant sales increases for the other companies: Operating system wise Linux, and turntable wise Vestax.
 
Of course, there are exceptions to this rule. Macintosh computers are on the rise, but they're a bit shit (dunno why people like them) and also, an alarming amount of people are buying Numark turntables (I understand why chavs like these turntables, but that does not justify buying them).
 
So, if you want to do your bit to improve the world we live in, go out to your local DJ shop (eBay's quicker though) and purchase a set of Vestax turntables, a Vestax mixer, and a fuck-off-great-big slab of vinyls consisting of hip hop and drum & bass, then practice, and get the fuck out there and spread the word with your music!
 
 
 
Be at peace with yourselves and the world you are meant to be helping.

Still Bombing

If your back's against the wall, turn around and write on it. One day you might make cash from it. Work hard and consider your skills, because it isn't really like anybody else ever will.
 
No other art is so...discriminated.
 
 
 
 
 

A moment of clarity

Right now I see clearer than most, as I sit here contending with this cheese on toast
