My luck Lay in the road Copper side up Copper side down it shone I I passed it by I turned around I picked it up I shook my beggar's cup I shook my beggar's cup Well time Takes in its hand What's handed to it Warm bread a stone or sand Shaped For what it holds For what it makes Fingers touch presence's place Oh my pride Lay in the seams Slipped through the cracks Of its Milwaukee jeans Between air and ground Copper side spinnin' My eyes are stuck On picking up my luck Oh Ohhh Oh Ohhh Oh Oh Oh I shook my beggar's cup Oh Ohhh Oh Ohhh Oh Oh Oh Why my legs fallin asleep My heads underneath Countin up sheep Enumerate leaps I spit fat beats Smoke fatter blunts At your uncle and aunts Get her comfy more than once While I sit back and enunciate Am I dreamin or just relatin My trains stuck in a station And I'm prayin that this aimlessness is belaborin wits Insane consciousness We're all awaitin' Traipsing the intellect Of certain sects Cicadas nests Arcane intestines Filled with pests At whose behest The governments We so detest Sick fuckin pricks Slick but a runt Remember your aunt She was a metaphor for the hunt Of civil citizens On a pension Worth benzes, forensics Who have dreams, swivel chips Drizzle clips Sell narcotics To realize them I should just rap on the flow Go slow Do more blow I don't know How shit go Profits grow The rich glow The poor blow Their last note at the sto Yo I'm spittin fire Torchin the liars Requiring dire Admonishment by a choir Call me sire I am the king Not of bling But of things Happening In the wings Lifting up on a breath Move the family west Hit the coast Roast the ghosts They're the prose Most verbose But their words don't mean shit When your shoes show your toes Or your bruised or your froze It's the streets that's talking The one on which you're walking And squawking away A dog has it's day Circadian favors The night has its flavors Piss in elevators Rich and elevated Situations changin Mitchell might have made it Itchin on the pavement Figment of a gangsta In a department store His life is bore Cartin floorboards Where can he go Corridors of labor Corrupt doors of gay whores Michael koors and Trayvon Will the man say hey son You're one of mine Health benefits Wealth deficits All held in cribs Of power Shall be returned to The founder And flower I shook my beggar's cup I shook my beggar's cup
