Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Optimism, about the faith of a people
That have accepted a mission improbable
To become some particle
Purged by discourage of suffering
Anger, hate, vengeance, and war
It's tough to explain, debate the men, or explore
But I die straight to the core
And an implosion of introspection so quiet
It can deafen me
Yet breathe breath into the sins
Lungs of the most tempered thug
[Verse 2]
Tease a bull get dismembered and drug through the mud
With a point from the head of a heavy weight
From the cold detail reality of hot graphite
Missing meat in a butcher trap
To the grandiose flights of fancy
From the abstract mind of a hip hop super nerd
As long as the truth is heard
The truth must be spoken
[Verse 3]
My youth has been smokin' and drankin'
Drankin' and smokin'
A life that to most may seem dreamlike
But rarely are things what they seem like
We ain't tight 'less y'all tight
Might bless me and all type
But it's all wrong
The goal is for all thrones
To be sat upon by true kings
[Verse 4]
All pretenders must fall
Into the fathoms of they own character flaws
But as long as we attempt to fool ourselves
We are not yet free
[Verse 5]
All in one say it, Bubba K now
Here to doubt, where's today?
On the Greyhound
Sittin' in the back
On top of close to eight pounds
Hunting for a innocent town
That I can shake down
[Verse 6]
Passed the Mississip'
I swim in the Great Lakes now
Made it this far
But still I can't escape how
Law ran in, back in the A town
[Verse 7]
And all I'm worth
Is all it ain't found
My brother in Denver
Used to do a lil' dirt
Maybe through him
I can move a lil' work
Me and Wichita, I produce a lil' smirk
[Verse 8]
Shop at Walmart, new shoes and a shirt
Tried to call mama
See if she denied the call
See if she ain't smoke the shit
I provide for y'all
Try to doze off with PM Tylenol
Just move a cue piece
Still I can't smile it off
[Verse 9]
Not yet free, not yet free
Not yet free, not yet free
[Verse 10]
Continuing my voyage in the Colorado
Folks live life but not with my bravado
I know that this pill is hard for you to swallow
More pig shit in which for you to wallow
[Verse 11]
I'm posted up here, at least until tomorrow
Get a pound of Buffalo Nik's that you can swallow
Only thing I'm holdin' is pain that you can borrow
Plus a whole pocket of change for your sorrow
[Verse 12]
Lotta Kat'z busted, but they can't find the hop
Lotta Kat'z hustle if you ain't grinding stop
On the open road, now is not the time to flock
The buzz is formulating, Jimmy
Now's the time to drop
