The Heart & The Tongue

My heart and tongue are fightin'

My mind is undecided

It's not like Trump and Biden

It's more like it's something private

Like when yo' cousins fightin'

One of 'em get excited

You can't just jump the gun and pick a side and jump inside it

Remember Pontius Pilate hung a God and justified it

The truth is slow 'cause someone's always in a rush to hide it

The lies is golden 'cause the devil got a touch of Midas

The soul is brighter 'cause the Holy Ghost is ultraviolet

The tongue is violent when the spirit starts to hunger-strikin'

The thunder lightning makes the heart go under bunkers hiding

The lungs is silent when it hears the footsteps of the giants

And then the fingertips they twist up like Poseidon's trident

Remember safety if you ever running from the tight end

Remember Mookie if they ever come to cut the hydrant

They cut the heart out with the tongue, they want it undivided

You better not start, you make a fuss you end up uninvited

My heart and mind are beefing, I call 'em Rhyme and Reason

They always going head to head, I'm trying to Siamese 'em

My father got a special set of skills like Liam Neeson

He told me faith and squinted eyes can turn the blind Venetian

I seen the sign, I'm in the den, I'm with the lions sleeping

I seen the wine, I seen the water turn to bright Tahitian

The heart is somewhere on Hawaiian beaches

Tying pigeons to the Giant Peaches

I want the beat to feel like diegesis

I'm tired of politicians tryna sell us diet Jesus

That's like dialysis was tryna sell us diabetes

Act like you was born yesterday and you gon' die a fetus

The mind's philosophy is old as Thales of Miletus

The mind is quite elitist, that's why they like choir preachers

They buy our leaders easier than I can buy a feature

That's why the genius' always end up on the tightest leashes

That's how I wrote my whole entire thesis

My heart and flesh are racing, that's why I get complacent

That's why y'all get impatient, y'all don't get the invitation

I'm sitting courtside with the nurses during visitation

Watching the vitals with some popcorn and anticipation
