The Tree Of Life
 
... Feat. White Wash and Clockwork Orange



...i rose from the Root of all evil,
started searching for answers
If money didnt grow on trees,
why did banks have so many Branches?!
no second chances were handed,
id almost given up hope
not even Hangman was prepared to show me the ropes.
A wise oak spoke to me,
told me something i shouldnt ignore
"life's a Pirate Ship,
just try not to get Over Bored"
So with this in mind,
i drank each rain droplet i caught in the goblet
and gradually,
in the tree of life, this weed began to blossom...
A stray shaft of sunlight bathes
the soiled ground
The shaft evades straying clouds
between seclusion and beautiful
single solitude
the crowded, stoic skyscrapers.
Upon the streets, shattered glass and stone
Crushed cans and torn papers linger.
Black soot drowns the cracks
And suffocates the possibility of living.
But the shaft of light drifts through possibility
And falls upon a single blossom of life.
so keep this in mind
realitys mentality is about done
none livin in poverty almost provoked
to fail is outcome
The root's ill never know
As time pass's by..
The branch's grow
I sit here though the season's
Daily shower's & The heat of the son
But i never know the reason's
The reason for life..
The tension grows fine
You could cut it with a knife
The wind strike's me like a spear
& now my time's up...
The end of a Era.

^ and both lines you quoted were by yours truely, so i cant be that wack - lol.

The reason the bar length kept shifting is because its three verses in one, 3 different emcees, 3 different styles, but its all been put together into one verse, thats how collabs seem to go among vets. .

Thanks for the feedback anyways, if i see a piece of yours up, i'll holla. .

I like how ppl wright these long ass songs and expect ppl to read them lol. but yours i really enjoyed reading, the one guy is right your flow is a bit hard and your vocab is kinda weak~!

Baron Mynd. 05-29-03 05:52 PM

^ Your missing the point, its a collab, 3 verses so the flows not gonna be the same, nor is the vocab. .
