about
Im rollin on the 7 I get it how i live it
Women blowin smoke kisses startin off the mission
<<<<<<< eye >>>>>>>
enter the lobby, dodge a few zombies
Love upfront, ambition is right behind me
42nd street dreams
Turn a dolla to a mill
City full of rappers tryna get that hot deal
(Wait)
and please stop all yo rhetoric
Rookie turned veteran, they asking who he who better than.
naw
just watch my footwork speak
Like im motor city rockin all over this break beat
Back to tall buildings, in a city full of hustle
Catchin' wreck loud, like a broke down muffler.
Hoppin' over QB, im checkin' the scenery
Mastering the art of happiness vividly on timing.
A soul brightening flicked & shining.
Witness liberation through the art of rhyming.
I'm loco-motive
halos of blown smoke racing
what is this bitter sweet thought that i'm tasting
break beats get tossed, & lost in the shape shift
itty bitties get crossed engraved in the pavements
Facebook, tweet,
Instagram political statements
get shook, defeat,
an at-tack, in all cases
it took great feats
to perfect my speech,
but hows that even possible when there aint no peak!
excuse me.
while my brain goes commando
i become the uncle to next generation's rambo
and thats word to mr winchester, elaina,
and the whole fleet of Love built back in Lansing
my relations dancing, butterfly fancy
who is that driving? when were all in the back seat
FOCUS
make the most of this, open trip
motionless as
<<<<<<< eye >>>>>>>
time travel sound patterns

lyrics
When I lived in Queens, NYC, I built a music program & media technologies with the youth in the neighborhood of Queens Bridge/Sunnyside/Woodside. During those times, the 7 grandfathers showed up and taught me lessons on the 7 Train line in Queens in a variety of interactions, ironically these teachings would come to transfer from words & ideas into bold actions & experiences, dreams to realities....
#ShoutOutToMySet ---> Sife. Love you bro.
These are the teachings of the Mishomis (grandfather), and EYE learned a great song of the east, and so mishomis said:
"You will encounter a song where the sun rises first to Turtle Island, and in this song you will learn from the direction of the east, so that you will know the great knowledge of creation."
Yikes... It was spoken, so, I learned these teachings the hard way, and transcribed em into hip hop lyrics.
The 7 Grandfather teachings:
=====================
Nibwaakaawin—Wisdom: To cherish knowledge is to know Wisdom. Wisdom is given by the Creator to be used for the good of the people.
=====================
Zaagi'idiwin—Love: To know peace is to know Love.
=====================
Minaadendamowin—Respect: To honor all creation is to have Respect. All of creation should be treated with respect.
=====================
Aakode'ewin—Bravery: Bravery is to face the foe with integrity.
=====================
Gwayakwaadiziwin—Honesty: Honesty in facing a situation is to be brave.
=====================
Dabaadendiziwin—Humility: Humility is to know yourself as a sacred part of Creation.
=====================
Debwewin—Truth is to know all of these things. Speak the truth. Do not deceive yourself or others.
