Signs

from GrandMixer by Sir Tumes

/

lyrics

Verse 1:

Village to raise a child
wisdom to make the man
subtext for some style
dreams to make a plan
the bob and weave life
dodge city native son
richard wright brother
elevating with every drum
no wine and cheese type
chew straw flannel grunge
waste very little
there’s nourishment in every crumb
body snatch past
slave boot to country rag
rascal with jazzmatazz
side street scallawags
doo-rag ghetto flag
for the modern pack
poisoned our Similac
spilled milk we pay it back
occupy mind
clandestine design
turn to water into wine
drunk the kool aid
sweet talk gets em in line
lotta rain little shine

Hook
Just those signs
Of these times

Verse 2:
Had vision that we would see
that blind life is real
had moments I doubted me
cause I forgot to feel
soul on ice
men of steel with rusty zeal
squeaky cleans
upside we all kneel
to the sky we appeal
for a thought meal
brain food to brain heal
minds ground to oatmeal
a pilgrimage starts from inside your temple
disaster natural when unbalanced elemental
Want me to touch screen
to regulate my pencil
monitor my action
turn my passion into pixels
occupy mind
clandestine design
turn to water into wine
drunk the kool aid
sweet talk gets em in line
all rain no shine
