Can you do it? Can you do it? Can you do it for me? Don’t do it Don’t do it for me. Do it cuz it’s what you need. Dont do it just to do it. you can do it just to see. I’d like to say I’m able. To feed my family and set the table. Pancakes with butter, and syrup maple. See their smiling faces, but of this series, I done cut the cable. Gotta try another angle, surface unstable, my mind tangled. Tongue twisted, tied to my teeth. it’s funny how I rap, when I don’t wanna speak. I done practiced technique, I’m of conscious of its physique. I want it t’be elite. I don’t want it, these are things I need, Like my dough but my bread done went sour. I guess that’s ok. It’s an accepted strain of ours. But I’ve strained for many hours. If you see I’m sweaty, then I showed you, That means I ain’t a coward. I ain’t gonna say empowered. And that makes me a coward. I’ll go back to my tower. Until it crumbles, only when I bleed do I shower. I miss Joe bloom and I don’t mean flowers. He’d love to see this. May I see the spring? Can you do it? Can you do it? Can you do it for me? Don’t do it Don’t do it Don’t do it for me. Do it cuz it’s what you need. Dont do it just to do it. you can do it just to see. Can you do it? Can you do it? Can you do it for me? Don’t do it Don’t do it Don’t do it for me. Do it cuz it’s what you need. Dont do it just to do it. you can do it just to see. Until the light leaves I’ll pay with my ability. Until I gain humility, my capability is plummeting. I crave wisdom so I oughta let my momma sing. Not chase chips, that’s just hummus things— won’t help me lift the weight. Get through waits or help me to see straight. I give much, i wait to take. Unlike life that takes like thief’s in nights. Hiding in plain sight. One day imma see em. Imma set my shit right. Can you do it? Can you do it? Can you do it for me? Don’t do it Don’t do it Don’t do it for me. Do it cuz it’s what you need. Dont do it just to do it. you can do it just to see. Can you do it? Can you do it? Can you do it for me? Don’t do it Don’t do it Don’t do it for me. Do it cuz it’s what you need. Dont do it just to do it. you can do it just to see. Let me rise, I done set my pride aside. I said I did it, I said I tried. I said my voice metastasized. Good. That’s my spite that’s speaking twice, but it bites. I should make sure that the truth is running too. Cuz my minds an animal in cages, I live in zoos. Reality’s better. Keeps me centered. To rise when I can. I should be more proactive, but as I said this ain’t my command I live with ground and under sky. I live for sweeter sounds and sometimes spice. You can ask me what I mean, but I meant it kind. You can ask me what I’ve seen, cǔz I ain’t living blind.
