philosopher stoned outro - cavalier (rapper) lyrics
[verse]
i’m still studying the sun, moon, and stars
that the one truth is “god
is love” above he, she, you, i, or ours
it was always a collage
was removed from the yard, schooled with holden caufields
to avoid holding coffins or bearing with the palls
they had silver spoons and two-car garages
fathers was templars, i had to troop to school through a gauntlet
christine’s son got shot in the head, but still lived
your time bent like dog years
lodges and the gangs come in blue and red like blood do in the arm
if it ain’t doing no harm it beats doing a bid
go ‘head and tell the little kids we was kings and queens in egypt
but nothing they can use to break free from what’s recent
i wrote this on jupiter. divine freedom. that’s 4th of july
same day seen a grown man, tear in his eye
at the bus stop, he ain’t “getting by”
he ain’t getting a ride
why should dreaming be deferred, why should i be deterred
if the universe was built from just a word
if you can’t overstand, you on the wrong firmament, copernicus
ask me “what it do?” i tell them learning is a verb
yet from curbside my panoramic pain makes fans
to your instagram worldwide… figures
so in my hood, i take pictures of white people who take pictures
i’m a philosopher stoned, amidst the roads where bullets whisper
the kind pulitzer prize winners wouldn’t find in they poems
i fit the description of victims and listeners
provided to the inquiry on whom they might find in they homes
so you can catch me catching the whip from uncle sam, or
catch me in the whip the color aunt jemima’s hands
we pharaohs in camaros, have them p-noid
these thoughts could keloid most americans’ apparels
but i’m too comfortable in fly sh-t, been high on both horizons
you haven’t eaten thai yet… let that digest
between all those that might could tell you ’bout the lsd
the ayahuasca and the weed but nothing in between the boaz and jachin
those who slept with madonna, kabbalists
that the dollar sign spells isis, that all of us
have the power to ignite, become christ, and triumph over crisis
just like this
i’m a philosopher stoned
