Small Steps - Heiruspecs

As long as blood flows, I stay strong, it’s possible

Inspired by the music

I’ve been trapped within this pattern by choice

It has long been my preference to keep, instead of trying to lose it

So as much as I can, I use voice

If I become as powerful as James Earl Jones

Then I will be more mobile and possibly even be able to kill with microphones

Until then, my bones and soul are all that maintain the role

And folding slowly, make it, only my pen pay the toll

Now is the time

Today is the day that the good lord has made

Which enables me to rejoice in rattling the cage

That holds my inhibitions and fears

Distant yet oh so near

I listen, but don’t yet hear the whispers

When ghosts shed tears

So dear apparitions

I give you my solemn vow, now

To earn every bead of sweat on my brow

Until the wet mask that I wear bears my soul

When exhibiting the epitome of mic control

You know the name of the game

Chasing the fame and wealth

Trying to build a name while still trying to maintain self

Your health is most important

You should never forget

This is supposed to be an outlet

When I’m stressed out, I’m working

I’m never perfect

Jerk the pair while trying to write a masterpiece

A feast for vocal chords

To try and release

I’m always reaching out for something

But I don’t know what it is

I’m reaching out for that assurance

Cause me, myself, I know that I write to live

I’m sick of this shit

This insufficient method of living is giving me a conniption

Finger too tired to pause

Too sick to quit

The insidious system is rendering it’s citizens

Mentally indolent with tricks and senselessness

I’ve been sent to

Levitate verb, pitch, balance and purpose

To kiss and dismiss villainous words on the surface of earth

With her pursed lips

Hence, giving the worthless

A glimpse at the twinkle in the eyes of the observant

And my momma said the elements that make me are the same ones that break me

Let’s switch around these elements and see where they take me

I’m feeling more alive when I’m back by that break beat

Accordingly, I speak out

When I’m full of life my spirit takes me

Through the mic and speaker flowing out

With honesty, probably

Cover insecurities with comedy, probably

Cover up stupidity with comedy, probably

Doing it, just as long as it’s calling me

Olly olly oxen free

Strategically placed synonyms, riddles, and speaks

Clothing unfolding

To show those who don’t know what flows bring

Moments of personal clarity mixed with gloating

That your hopes and dreams lay broken at my feet

Like toe rings

A spectacle of this magnitude can cause an attitude

To switch hemispheres by a few degrees like latitude

Not a statement for elevate my status, too

I just happen to bear bad news, sad but true

Do I get the finder’s fee for finding me in my apartment

Patiently waiting for nothing specific

Just start in my rhyme book

And starting

Departing for punch lines

Moving into stories and traditions

Of real separatory magicians

So if it works out

I could be heralded instead of looked down on

Inferiority complex is something that I frowned on

Clowned on, and make yourself into a bigger man

Or con yourself as if following the lines drawn in sand

The journey within

Its not as simple to finish

As it is to begin

But hopefully me and my pen will be friends till the end

My buddy, wherever I go he goes

Wherever we go we show everyone that we are both equal

Channeling devices of something higher than each of us

We seem to touch the fingertips of the being that’s reaching us

Teaching us that weeping on loose leaf deepens the trust

We need to be sure to hear the creator speaking to us

Microphone (microphone)

Table amplifier (broadcast)

Feelings (building up)

Emotions heighten (let it all pass)

The moment between thought and word eternal and instinct

(developing quickly, like the growing of an infant)
