THE OPEN MIC CYPHER

[Mr. J]

Hey, hey look what the pen did to you.
All the trips to the other realms & metaphysical...
Took their toll..its slowly digging into you.
Each psychotic episode is mere ritual.
It's all up "here" and depends on what you listen to.
Ready? Set. Engage with every thought political.
Every swift change in life taken too literal.
Shades of grey & hues of white begin to glisten through.
You set the standard now, wow, you did it dude!
Shit, you aren't even proud of how you did it too...
Look at the scope and examine what you living through.
Post grad lad scraping by as living proof.
That's twice as much needed to guide the skeptical.
Shit that might be forgettable, high off edible.
Type of rhyme that blindside's the blessings.
Views from the highrise got me feeling so intentional.
I feel like I just might die off medical....
But that recreational side got me on so much greens...
I think I've turned into a vegetable
