state of affairs - myrlin lyrics

what you really need to know about me?
i guess i show you a few things
do you see the young woman speak her poem out loud
about being raped at sixteen?

can you see us dry our eyes and pose for a selfie? tag me
do you know those barrio hollywood kids who are young adult daddies?
do you know that they add me, message me, fan me?
do you know the rich kids at the private college file in swiftly
to an auditorium where i hit the academic inst-tution for about six g’s

put it on my rent, put it on this video, put it on student loan debt
put it on the time i spent, lovin’ and livin’, growin’, an failin’, just to make this exist
my life is so much more than rap you can’t fathom that
same way i can’t fathom where you’re at

listening on the phone, in your headphones, at the park before you go to scr-p
before you hit l!ck or a link or buy a drink and give a homie dap
f-ck it, i’ll choose, i’m at your aunties house in your headphones
smelling cooked food like whoa
watch her add spice so smooth
cold suds in the brew
m-ssive flavor as i chew

i spit it back at you, homie that’s soul food
i roast fools, i’m the fire spit and flame. they the goose
i transmit, i permeate, beyond the sound wave and the sound booth
they the lie. i’m the truth
the beautiful ugly path i walk makes my groove

[chorus]

i’m away, i’m away, i’m away, i’m away, i’m away. where i’m goin’ now?
i’m away, i’m away, i’m away, i’m away, i’m away. where i’m goin’ now?
i’m away, i’m away, i’m away, i’m away, i’m away. where i’m goin’ now?

just tryin’ to touch this love sh-t
in private i touch it out of the sight of the public
but in public i be lovin’!

[verse two]

this art thing
be my favorite comfort sleep
it comforts me
when i reach to dream
it’s all the survival scr-ps of me
i tapestry, a taping thing, but its not the best of me or the worst of me
it’s the recipe of what i let you see
intentionality in every thing
when i make this pen bleed
this ain’t for publicity
this is just how i breathe
90% of what i make will never seep
in your ear drum, son, this is how i pray for me
a song to see, in the prayer of we
its where i go to re-re-read
re-imagine, re-re-remake
re-evaluate. release dragons
re-demonstrate anthems of discovery
where i can become, become, become a better me
become a better

this ain’t fantasy
this is fantastic personality in the prism of joy and grief

go ahead. peep, the way i get cold at night
i get cold at night
no warm body next to mine
been a long time
and i’m cold
i memorize winter below a colorado sky

coyote howl be the background sound to this life
i sing summer songs through the moonlight

they say the night people out to get the day people
but i kick it with the night people and step with the day people
if you know me well they you know that i walk to the day with you
laugh wit you, hang wit you

i channel light to evacuate the darkness in my life
trying to tare away my shackles in real time

i guess i been to focused on the horizon floatin off in the distance
a destination in my mind that i forgot how to enjoy my stride

[chorus]

just tryin’ to touch this love sh-t
in private i touch it out of the sight of the public
but in public i be lovin’!
