I be blowin’
Influenced by the ones flowin’
They had a message
Now it’s all sewage
Where’s this shit goin’
Learn vernacular
Find spectacular
Used to be about horns and pipes
Now it sounds scorn and trite
Bring back the music
Some could use it
Louis Armstrong
Tune or Song
Melody, harmony
Rhythm and Tea
Teddy Pendergrass scored all the ass
Not rock the boat
Calm the water
Stop the fodder
Try not to gloat
Notion, Knowledge
Devotion, College
Books can plant a seed
Words aren't required to read
Get out and touch someone
Laugh and have fun
A Louisiana Cypress rooted in the swamp
Don’t need a trigger or a pump
Don’t play with guns
No reason for ammo
Raisin’ the sons
To live without dough
Too much to see
To need one thing
Live by the fee
Follow the string
Instead of a cat
Listen to Nat
King Cole
Sing Soul
Some are sick, some are ill
Some are real, some it's the pill
Some hide the pain, some go for the feel
All I want is a motherfuckin’ meal
