Original text with translation

Skylines

Haiku

All my life I’ve been known to keep moving like rolling stones

But no matter how far I roam, there’s just no place like home

I keep my eyes on the horizon. I’ve arrived in the city

Buildings rising up like Titans. I’ve arrived in the city

Haiku

(Yea) Now from the time that I record til I’m smiling with awards

I’m reminded where it started, writing rhymes while I was bored

How I grinded from the floor, to headlining to perform

Finally driving on them tours, signing vinyls in the stores

Climbing higher towards making hip hop sensation my occupation

And being a household name in the general population

The road to riches is viscous it takes a lot of patience

For dealing with complications often with no compensation

The painstaking process, lacing up tracks in my patna’s basement

The constant pacing and contemplating how to conquer stations

The most rewarding part is traveling all across the nation

And seeing the skylines complimented by constellations

Each destination is motivation for me to write these epic poems

Every stepping stone is a treasure trove

There’s no better feeling than that final stretch of road

Where I’m headed, no one ever knows, feels like I’m never home

Christopher Michael Jensen

(Yeah) I’m on a track with Haiku

But I need more than seventeen syllables and three lines to rhyme through

I’m from around the way of 10,000 Lakes

Represent MN even when I’m out o' state

In a city that’s synonymous with indie rap

So I’m carrying the flag and just want to give it back

Legends put us in the map. Now I want the whole globe

They gave us Atmosphere. I’m shooting through the Ozone

Aiming for the stars, to another nebula

I’m trying to be a god, even though I’m secular

And the reflection of the lights are in my retinas

Dreams of marquees, my name in the center of

But no, I’m not scratching this logo off your eight gig iPod

I’ll never leave you Mini Apple-less

Winning where I’m living. Never catch these L’s

One love, from the TC to STL. Come on

Sex The Rapper

Chicago, Illinois. Living on top, I kill the noise

Of ignorant snobs who live in a box and want to just stop and kill our voice

The politicians are hot. They’re acquitting the cops, and you’re docile,

feeling coy

But I ain’t submitting. I’m walking the distance. I’m rocking with God to fill

the void

The city has allowed me to be living on the bounty

From the music and removing any ignorance around me

Feeling lifted and so gifted, ain’t no ignorance I’m shouting

The glory up to God, and my adrenaline is pounding

Chicago has given me nourishment. Bravado, I’m getting encouragement

I’m not going to limit this. I won’t be hitting this pothole. I’ll miss it and

curve it

Any person getting in the way of earning fetty. Herbs-a-plenty, and I’m getting

‘Cause with the words I burn and murder many, and yes I get it in like Curry (?)

(?) John Hancock. You will obey us when I rhyme that hot

American and great, I had to share and innovate, because I’m married to the

game I had to tie that knot

I’ll say it ‘til the whole f***ing world hear me

I can make it in this game if Cubs can win the World Series
