Mind Notes Pt.89 'How'



How did it come to this?
How did it get
So hard to live?
How did it all fall down
And come to this?


Feel like I got post traumatic stress
Surrounded by gorillas
And they're beating on their chest
Swinging through the jungle
Trying find a place that's bless
But there's no sight of a clearing
So I'm wondering whats next
Trying to second guess
But the walls ain't got no writing
Trying see a different view
An end to all this fighting
Trying to see my happiness
For what it's really worth
See times arrow flying
One time on this earth
One time from the birth
To pick apart the space fabric
Praise dead stars
Gave birth to this planet
Praise to my mother
I was raised on this planet
But we owe it all to gravity
The invisible magic
Theres too much war on this planet
Too many hungry bellies
Poor on this planet
I pour my heart out
Heartbreak on this planet
Because I know there could be
A better way on this planet


I'm always looking at it different
And I'm looking for
Who's looking at it different
An I'm watching who's out 
Chasing for the riches
And when the worm turns
They still beg forgiveness
Evil manifests on levels
Some are desperate 
Some are just devils
Some will turn a blind eye
It's incredible
Another massacre
Another convertible
How we end up in this big mess
Now we trapped in this fish net
Navigate through wifi
Pond getting smaller
Now we start to see
There should be 7 billion ballers
Because the earth has got resources
They should be yours an mine
Instead they're buying porches
They tell us get in line
You might just make a fortune
Better off go play the lotto
Buy a horseshoe

Mind Notes Pt.88 'Another Moment'





Never doubt it
Still be about it
Love for this music
Never be without it
Climb to the roof top
Stand up and shout it
Speak for my people
Stand and be counted

Never doubt it
Still be about it
Love for this music
Never be without it
Climb to the roof top
Stand up and shout it
Peace Manifesto
Stand and be counted


Another hiphop moment
The vibe of the track
Feels classical don't it
Old school
Like watching kickers
Shelly's shop window
No loot for them rhythm blues
I got the bag though
1 9 0 bus pass
We let da bus pass
Trample down the Thames
Adventures on the way to class
I had the last laugh
Because haters always hate
They was busy watching
I was busy watching grades
Then off home to play
Pedal bike
Go link Jordan
Best to bring your bike up
Man are out thieving
Put it in the hallway
Settle for the evening
Mums in the kitchen
Everybody's eating
Musical meetings
Power up the keyboard
Down for the cause
100 we on board
Train of thought
Play for sport
Who's counting
Give me a rhythm and a beat
And I'm about it

Another hard knock memory
It's bin a few years
Since my quarter of a century
It's been a few years
Since I went and got the energy
I wrote about a million rhymes
I've always got the pen with me
Now its touch type
iPhone six
Make notes of mind notes
On iPhone riffs
With the iPhone kids
But I still got them cassette tapes
Catalogue them vinyls
Holding up them late greats
Finish up my whole plate
Nothing is for granted
Came and I saw
Never left what I started
Came from the garden
Of nature to nurture
Grown through this music
We sing to the future
No regrets
No doubts in my head
Put my life on my word
You could check what I said
Run it back and come again
I still speak for my people
Eyes wide open
Equal is equal



PEACE LOVE & PEOPLE POWER!
