Thieves Versus Clues

from Thieves Versus Clues by King Rhythm & Colin Johnco

lyrics

i articulate this natural life full blown sit calm style
then meet on the road
eyes greet and unload a different person
down with grays and blues
I'm working this fact through my head
no thieves no clues
just creamsycles and love
a boat with hope
and escapades to diminish all the pain of the past
I'll miss you at last
I'll miss you full blast
but it'll be redeeming
quick drawings no meandering
a delicate balance
knowing when to skip the end unread
I'll be navigating better next time
it's all in the design

from behind to flourish with rhyme we nourish
but surveillance leaves me skittish
and exposed in their scope
they focus on the frontline
while I focus on focusing on hope
another week gone by
tell it to my oh my
old friend seen it coming
but I couldn't compute in the back of my head while excelling
concepts to oblivion
and these pinions and cowards send em all flowers
give levers to adjust good reason to live
but it isn't
and if I look like a bum when I'm musical
it's cause I can only care about the total
it's all paperclips and leprechauns
or paper cuts and marathons
puppy dogs and staring cons
study logs and farakahans
one way another how you feel's
results are sweating from my lips pure
I ask cats for simple things and I get no response so
this one goes out to the last many mention of minutes gone lost
I'll now taken on a new embodiment
surprising jump in a stream
lifetime in a rivers gleam
so mean so mean so what does it all mean
when nothings concluded
and the cats that label set this eluded
I see it's all ironicies these mysteries seize
