One Mic.
All I need is one mic,
One beat,
One Stage,
One breath,
And One ear
To do just one verb-
Verbalize my lifes one purpose
In more than just one word
Over One mic
In one arm I bring with me just one burden
ON the other I wear this one curse
The weight of either
Is even
Its hard to say what's worse
Hard to say which hurts
More, or which to work through first
less than one answer
More than one question
Each eye sheds one tear
The blood that the soul bleeds
From wounds which run soul deep
Through a muzzled mouth, the soul speaks
All I need is one mic
To speak in one tone
In one hope
That the lyrics to ones soul
Could help one find the right road
One mic to recite a letter without ink,
To ask God forgiveness for one sin
To ask Him to show me how to live,
How to do the things his son did,
For the flesh is vile and weak
To unite the world with one voice.
With one movement point,
Out the crooked and exploiters,
Of the weak and voiceless
For one love
With One mic...
Relive the past and present
From a future tense
Cross all the t's and dot all the i's that I missed along the way
Simulate how life could have turned out one day
One mic
is deep
One mic
is speak
One mic
Is release and healing
One mic
is a movement
One mic
is Poetry and music
One mic
is change and revolution
But one mic, is just...
One mic...
Right?
