Welcome to Rap Opera, the mind of a guy that is not pop enough F*ck Wagner the times too tough to be pessimistic so his time is up I today waver a quaver in A major The people say what they need is a saviour So take a fruit from the Asymme-tree Thelonious planted in his day as a seed The "bop" plant pollinated by the "Be" Pac called it the rose that rose from concrete How do you define divine that finds street? "Hip bop," the color of my leaves Not turquoise the color that I bleed More like blue the color is not seen More like a Kora ora than a banjo Or like the Mona Lisa with a Afro Picasso of black folk But Picasso should see himself as the white O I write notes rhythmically not for timpani To accomplish what Bach did for symphonies One day it will all It will one day make sense 'Til then let's enjoy 'Til then let's enjoy 'Til then let's enjoy? (Let us, let us, let us, let us, let us) There is much wackness Killing the craft There is just madness And it's just sad Now isn't it sad to see it come to this? Isn't it sad it had to come here now? Fly away hip-hoppers, won't you fly away Fly away hip-boppers, won't you fly away Fly away hip-hoppers, won't you fly away Fly away hip-boppers, won't you fly away I can't find myself Lost in the middle of bland Don't nobody play nowadays all these digital bands Ain't nobody musicians no more lyrical cats How can we go forward onward 'less we go back? Don't nobody wanna be original and everyone thinking they bad Rolling up on reinvented wheels 'cause it got chrome don't mean it ain't jacked This that inner city culture molded next to that crack Those who couldn't play ball could find they solace in that Find they knowledge in rap While the cowards sit back And hide behind the familiar scared to steer from the past Won't dare to veer from that path Year to year the same tracks Ear to ear I can't have 'cause the fear my peers defamed rap Now we Gotta get back to the music Gotta give back to the youth this product and factory movement Expire Just die and now we inspire Now we rise to give life to those who have been deprived of Vision and innovation Give 'em a new creation Welcome aboard my spaceship Where words become the clay and Sculptures of sound I make 'em Masterpieces This my master thesis One of my baddest creatures I held off on unleashing Peep it Ill harmonic soul symphonic chronic rhymes and it's kinda hypnotic God, it has got to be time that I spent writing rhymes in Ghana tryna play Amadeus and Brahms cut to now it's time for Rap Opera This is renaissance music (Let me tell 'em what it is) Cyberspace music (Let me tell 'em what it is) Intellect music (Let me tell 'em what it is) This is African music (Let me tell 'em what it is) Ghetto child music (Can I tell 'em what it is? Will I tell 'em what it is?) All of our music (Gotta tell 'em what it is, better tell 'em what it is, let me tell 'em what it is I wanna tell 'em what it is) One day (One day) It's gonna get better (Yes it will) It's gotta get better (It's got to) One day it'll get better better uh huh One day (One day) It's gonna get better (Better) 'Cause it's gotta get better (Uh huh) One day it'll get better (Better) (It will) I say one day Maybe it'll be this Sunday Or it could even happen Monday Don't you know it could all change one day One day you could be in the worst state Next day you would swear it's your birthday Saturday you don't wanna be around now No frowns can be found on Thursday Yes sir If you're lookin' at the forecast and ya can't find a reason for laughs Just know that it can't rain always Never know what the very next door has Sure that storm felt like a marathon But it's more like a 100 yard dash I done been through the worst of the worst times Trust me but I still seen it all pass, all pass Don't you know that one day Music won't be a commodity Subject to the lies and robbery I see, can you join in this odyssey? I believe in the future one day Maybe not now yes someday In the days or years to come day It'll change you'll see life's something Something join me say One day... (One day) It's gonna get better (Better) It's gonna get better (Better) It's gonna get better (Better) One day (One day) It's gonna get better (I believe it) It's gonna get better better (You believe it) I say better (Better) I say one day (One day) It's gonna get better (Better) You better believe it (Believe) It's gonna get better (Better) I say one day (One day) It's gonna get better (It will) You better believe it (Believe) It's gonna get better (Better) I say one day One day (One day) Oh yes one day (Yes one day) One day it will get better (Yes it will) You know, sometimes you wanna fight it but in all actuality you need to let it go You need to just let it shut down and reboot I'm drifting, is my mind? (Drifting, drifting) Drifting in mind (Drifting, drifting) Drifting is my mind? (Drifting, drifting) Drifting, would you mind? (Drifting, drifting) Listen, this is why I'm drifting If we knew our inner mind riffing If we knew our inner science drifting then we'd listen when we start (Drifting, drifting) Listen to your bio rhythms drift and get into your higher image This is where you find the light and living, people, this is my new religion I am drifting, do you mind? (Drifting, drifting) Touching the divine (Drifting, drifting) When I close my eyes (Drifting, drifting) So much I can find (Drifting, drifting) There's no meter I could sync with Pen to ink with Thoughts to think with That's relinquished Seem to S'ilad kind of genius Drifting It's a scratch I cure with itching Itching to see earth from the canyons Drifting With no aeroplane lifting drifting High! You know I'm (Drifting, drifting) I said I'm (Drifting, drifting) I am I'm drifting in mind (Drifting, drifting) Drifting, is my mind? (Drifting, drifting) Drifting, do you mind? (Drifting, drifting) Me drifting out of time? (Drifting, drifting) Drifting in my mind (Drifting, drifting) Drifting, is my mind? (Mind, mind, mind) Drifting, would you mind? (Drifting, drifting) Me drifting out of time (Drifting, drifting) No I'm not dying drifting Shifting states feeling like I'm missing But I leave this land of the living Give me peace you can't see I'm Drifting in my mind? Drifting I resign Subconscious hills travel in my brain and that's why I'm sifting through the clutter Chaos lives Buried in my thoughts Yes it is My collage of pain and Happiness Aggravation and my inner fears My inner beast Lives in here So let's have a feast drink my tears Drifting into this unaware of the laws of the aware Come in here dear Have no fear Share my atmosphere and hemisphere So many people have not returned from here Maybe there's too many lessons learned from here I'm telling the people with open ears Even the partially deaf I hope can hear When I'm asleep and I drift and I see what it is to be finally living I cannot believe it I swear 7am I'm reading 'bout what Jesus 'bout 'Bout Jesus' bout with the wicked ones who snuffed Jesus out They say for the cheese and clout I doubt Myself my upbringing in question who wrote these words? What men? I have some questions This is when I died and thus my resurrection Died to their lies acquired the holy message When you learn Christ you choose love as a weapon Then you turn Christ and lose love as a lesson This is the message of he who is perfected In the name of He who died for our acceptance Accept it reoccurs in legend some in historical times ours on records Welcome to a parallel universe You were tryna sing this song but never knew the words They would orchestrate it for choirs all through the church I was in the pew and knew that I had to search We are all here 'cause fear is what they serve you will surely die but then's the rebirth Follow me Out of the monotony welcome into prophecy This is where your higher self finds its homogeny With the lower self and combines the cacophony A place where Friedrich Nietzsche meets Socrate
