Final Four for my Soul

Ball n tunes vs smoke n alcohol (Final Four for my soul)
 
 
Epic battle like Tyson vs Ali
Goliath and David  
 
In the garden
Who wins will decide my soul
 
Rooting for bball but alcohol calls me
Back in to swim and lose myself  
 
Find my way to the surface  
Hearing tunes of dolphins
 
Smell skunk on the horizon
Sink into oblivion  
 
Clear brain can’t find a word
To put together  
 
Spirit’s figure it out
Playin leather and pulling strings  
Are things of Buddha beings

Smoke n petrol could save me
But put me in a dying grave
 
Trying to be immortal would be the way
Picking on something strings and everything  
Leather on your palm
Feel like a god as I put it up
 
Sit with a feather for my thoughts
Put pen on paper my true dreams  
Spill my soul onto parchment  
 
My declaration my sanity my sobriety  
Delve into lost properties  
This could save me
 
Chasing shots on the playground
Pushing my pen
Speaking my thoughts  
Leads to salvation
