Chorus

The center piece of me has always been the poetry
Whether acapella or I'm rockin on a beat

The center piece of me has always been the poetry
Whether on the stage or you catch me in the street

The center peice of me has always been the poetry
Burnin in my veins my words they come with heat

The center piece of me has always been the poetry
My lines cary weight with lines that dig deep

Verse 1

The poets reminisce, better than a kiss
diggin in book for somethin that really sticks /
to your ribs, like a bowl of grits, got you throwin fits
cuz my fist is in the air but never poundin ifs /
wish, upon a shootin star, that you cannot miss
dreams fallin hard like noodles in a dish /
top it wit a sause, now you got somethin that hits
like a punch to the kids and it fits /
like an old pair of chucks, or a warm seat on the bus
windows foggin up cuz my words kick up dust /
keep'em polished like my rims, never lte'em rust
like the knife in my pocket that I really know I must /
be ready to attack, with each and every rap
shhotin craps, it's a dash and I know I'm livin fast /
but alas, the past is half back in the math
the wrath of the caste a fact to fight back...

Chorus

The center piece of me has always been the poetry
Whether acapella or I'm rockin on a beat

The center piece of me has always been the poetry
Whether on the stage or you catch me in the street

The center peice of me has always been the poetry
Burnin in my veins my words they come with heat

The center piece of me has always been the poetry
My lines cary weight with lines that dig deep

Verse 2

Always lookin past the, steady movin fasta
the lack a magination, stiflin the laughta /
the craft of immaculate graph, none of'em wack rough
poet on his game neva half does anything/
the gavel swings, a sentence handed out
each syllable a symphony dances from his mouth/
orchestrated beautifully to never waste a sound
but silence................................... the most profound /
resoundsing, compounding effects
itchin the next, deep breath /
eveacuate chest, exedus death, the rest
voice to life, move and affect, compress /
heidelberg projects /
news kept in focus /
heart be the closest /
time be the dopest /
music in motion /
flowin till prose deaf /
ink leavin soul prints /
diamonds in romance /
follow through the moment /
PROFESS...
