Run Deep

the color of a worthless penny

is something worth more than gold

I'm preaching to the royal soul

to comb or not to comb

Blue Ivy's hair

"WTF" should we care

this is not a black tie affair

this panhandled propaganda

is not news worthy

is it our business

we got our own problems

inclosed in this triangle

to untangle that we must 

comb through to the nape

to get to the root

no ball gown is needed

to be invited to this soiree

put on your combat boots

we are on the final chapter

of a story that ceases to end

It's not safe in the dome

we are people who weather

the storm, rise when we fall

return from the dead

just to do it all over again

the games not over until we win

cheating is in the system

we are not sleep, just playing

possum every damn time

we reach out and shock em' like 

rock 'em sock 'em robots

pull out the knots & the beady beads

take the strands and twist 'em

wake up and wash the sand out

we don't need a handout

nor do we need another hero

watch the mystery unfold

the same way it did in the past

still like marble and just as cold

walk the plank but do not get in the boat

coz  you already know..
