secondhand kaleidoscope (intro) - thomas burgundy lyrics

[intro: thomas burgundy]
so in conclusion
reality is an illusion
perspective is a drug we all using
baby choose while you’re young
influence
got us all under the influence
under the sun nothing is new son
nothing is new

[verse 1]
just copped a thrift store jacket cut the sleeves off
added some patches, this is me now
the universe is talking, i just eavesdrop
intrinsic value for the free now
or now that i can see now
i found a couple beads for my kaleidoscope, but i don’t know
where these other jewels came from
but this view through my kaleidoscope is all i know
it’s all i know
it’s all i-
come take a look
a couple books
a couple cd’s
a couple films
and lessons momma got to teach me
some conversations with my pops and other og’s
and experience is really feeling like she’s got to know me
cause i know her well
she’s subjective yeah, but don’t you tell
cause i feel i know her better than i know myself
cause i don’t even know myself
but i could tell you bout her
yeah let me tell you bout her

cause last night i had a dream within a dream
that god told me he would grant me anything
d-mn
i thought as long as i could
then i asked for wisdom, and to move my momma out the hood
then i woke up and realized it’s all just a cycle
and all we know is what we’ve been exposed to
and childhood decides, so yeah i wanted to be michael
but i found my creativity being homeschooled
so thank you momma for reading me the word of god everyday
and if salvation wasn’t free, then i don’t know where i would be
but seeking wisdom, knowledge, understanding
that just lead me right back to god, he gave me dap then he said well done
“time been shaping your perspective
better tell it how it is
better tell it how it is
spread my love and educate before you exit
not to spoil it for you baby but you finna die at the end
so

[bridge: thomas burgundy]
do what you love
love what you do
so much has come
before you and will come after you

[thomas burgundy & potencia rose]
do what you love
love what you do
so much has come
before you and will come after you

[potencia rose]
do what you love
love what you do
so much has come
before you and will come after you

[outro: pops]
yeah j, aye man
just, you know, the vision that he has given you
like you said, the life that he’s given you-
you draw from all of these things
aye, there’s only one life that each one of us has, you know it’s different from all the others. so if that’s what’s he’s given for you to do then, at this point, it’s holding on to those scriptures, sometimes i paraphrase them to get them but it say
“the vision is yet for the appointed time. but at the end of the appointed time, the vision will speak and it will not lie. and though it may tarry, wait for it, because it’ll certainly come, and it won’t delay.”
and so, this frame of reference that he’s given you, all these experiences, and how he chooses to allow you to say it- that’s the vehicle you’re gonna use to make the change that, like you said, it’s up to people how they apply it. you just put it out there
you know…
