(The Mathematics of Rhythm and Rhyme)
(Math)
(4) One, two, three, four,
(8) Makes your foot tap to quarter notes,
(8) One and two and three and four and,
(8) Eighth notes are just double the strokes.
(8) What you see in parentheses?
(8) That’s my silly syllable count,
(8) Each line can read like an eighth note,
(8) Simple math for these bars to mount.
(16)One e and a two e and a three e and a four e and a,
(8) Sixteenth notes are a drummers dream,
(8) And if you’re rapping to the beat,

Drifting About - Ft. Hippo & Harps
Floating around the shores of a beach, whilst being all out to sea
I’ve been drifting about, the days are becoming so long
Nobody told me, it could so easily, happen to me
It’s not that it’s bad, I’ve done nothing wrong
It’s just time, as I knew it, seems to have skipped a beat
A month became a year, like time decided not to catch up and meet
Nowhere to sleep, little to eat, only new wayward floaters to greet
Can you see me or do you choose not to?
Acknowledge me, don’t look straight through me
I’m a human with a heart, if it were you, I’d...

Busking About
I’ve been busking about since young and fair
The atmosphere from onlookers, like skating on thin air
So unconventional, prior to the old smacking ways
That’s how I’d spend my entire waking days
Melodic riffs, dancing over bass lines
Harmonising daily, to some lonesome feeling ballads
Playing finger-style guitar, without any speeding hump hazards
Along the boardwalks of Venice Beach
In unlikely places, that you’d ever encounter or reach
A folksy blues musician, you can’t wait to hear
Independent, from a money-making machine, that’s so...
