    Default Venti Venti

    Flipping through subsets of my soul/
    Digital pictures of old young subjects/
    Poor products of guns drugs and sex/
    From where project prodigies grow stunted/
    Not oddly from it though/
    Blowing smoke clouds to make days sunny/
    Son grippin' a mug sipping crushed iced coffee mixed with some Rum/
    Getting bent until my troubles get drunk and forget to haunt me/
    Dawn spilling through city buildings spawns raw thoughts of my God not being with me through these streets that I walk/
    Something I'd never want/
    Molding art from cold vivid visions I sense I'll carry with me infinitely/
    Still sifting through memories of getting gone but going nowhere/
    Just getting tipsy, hitching blue and red lines with no fare/
    Living like it's no fair/
    Cares get thrown up in air like gang-signs to squares who'd claim Heaven over a road here, made of concrete/
    Home to everyday Kings and Queens/
    Disowned heirs to thrones of their own Democracy/
    A mockery of what we're told we ought to believe/
    People piece popping for peace/
    Seems like I almost gotta be shot to be free/
    Because everybody that speaks often gets offed for their speech/
    Feet at the bottom, still we see from the top of the peak/
    Base jumping from dreams/
    No strings, just belief/
    Over trees, I'd really rather grow to be a Chief/
    Trouble tryna box me in, homie bout to show em' the ropes though/
    Rope-A-Dope for those folks who didn't know he could cope/
    I wanna float, and be Me/
    Treat the flow like a sea and just coast on the ocean/
    Breath shallow, think deep/
    Until the words that I've been given getcha' open like a C/
    And the grief is no more/
    Read between the lines they won't teach/
    No sleep for those who don't dream/
    Fake truth consumers/
    Eye-pods and forbidden fruit illumined computers/
    My generation outnumbers the baby boomers, it's cray/
    Hard to think with a brain slave to tumors/
    Things that they induce to create what we do on a daily basis/
    It's foolish/
    Making mula is what makes us/
    I'm tryna live today like I'm alive for one day/
    Because no oasis awaits us, if we remain in a wakened hiatus/
    Neo soul, dodging shots up on that roof still/
    Rest of the populous overdosing on blue pills and mollies/
    Wake up and smell the coffee before it's too chilled, and truth spills out the top of the cup and soon will runneth over with troop drills/
    It's too real, I hope you like non-fiction/
    History isn't written from what it depicts in it/
    Endless in prediction like spitting image mirrors though, so pay attention with wages Angels give us just for staying His children/
    Yahweh/
    I pray that one day my brothers and sisters get to lay eyes upon his face when we stride through the gates/
    Spray painting murals of our story right by the sky's arc/
    Getting paid, glad my bucks really do reside in the stars..

    I ****ing love this man, respect! Now would you please show the rest of the world how it's supposed to be done? This is how rap should be, great rhymes with powerful meanings and free-flowing thoughts that connects all together. Not the garbage we get from the mainstream scene as of today...it's sad really. But this is hope my friend ;-)

    Hey man thanks a ton! I really appreciate the feedback, you taking the time out of your day to do so. I'm sorry I'm not really on the site much, I have to go check some of your new stuff out. But honestly I feel blessed to be able to share my ideas and beliefs through words, even more so to have people out there that just get the big picture you know lol. Hope all is well with you and your life, and that you keep sharing your work with people out there and being the influence you are. One love! Be blessed

    bumping this because I just found it and it's awesome. I hear Citizen Cope all the way through, not copycat at all, just on that level....

    yvw! Citizen Cope is a fusion kind of guy, a little hip hop and a little soul and a lot of other style mixed in. He's just too unique to pin down. I recommend starting with 2 of his songs '107 degrees' and 'Let The Drummer Kick' and just see what you think.
