Peace brother, what's good
Nothin' much, just finished getting dressed, now I'm bout to pack a lunch
Word, you got work today
Yeah, at 9
Damn
I know dude, why what's up, what's on your mind
Well, I went to Bernie's last night and heard a couple of beats
They had me nodding my head and even tapping my feet
Was so excited yo that now I even rap when I speak
I gotta use this energy in me before it depletes
Whoa, well that sounds like a good start
I'd participate today but I'm not clocking off till after dark
So spark the session with some freestyling
To keep the beat heavily in stream until we start writing
Alright word up, it sounds like a plan
I'ma travel through my head with just a map of wonderland
I might stumble over words, I might not make sense
But it's the grain that I'm moving with and never against
I'm kinda hungry, grab my skateboard and dip
Hopefully today's the day I land a kick flip
I'm on my over to the jack in the box, so I can
Try to pull out some change out my socks
And I can try to pay for a little bit of food
And I'm feeling real nice like I'm in a good mood
I even tipped the dude, the cashier who helped me
And yo I, even let the dude take a selfie
With me in it, but shit oh wait here goes the call
I'm reading the name upon the screen as Emphasize The All
Yo
What up fam, check it out, I got some news
It's an early day for me, I gotta run and change my shoes
Cool, go ahead cruise, I'm waiting to hold a pen
I'm waiting to go somewhere that my freestyle has never been
Alright, sounds good, am I meeting you at your pad
Yeah, I'll be there in a minute, I mean it, try not to lag
Alright, don't lag is the mission at hand
I try to keep my focus but my eyes are wanting to scan
Everything in sight, a part of me wants to put up a fight
But I figure, use this experience as inspiration to write
So I grab my four wheels and proceeded to skate
Taking notice of the beautiful and not so great
From everyday joe and janes to walls with fresh paint
I gaze up at the sun and embrace the wind in my face
Oh shit! Almost missed Kaus' pad, glad I didn't
Time to hit him up so that we can start spittin
DJ Inform on the beat and we kick the non-written
A sacred session to exercise lyrical vision
I can't hold this excitement in
Yo, Kaus what up
Where you at brotha man
Well I'm chillin' out in front
Alright, be there in sec
Thanks brotha
No doubt, hope you brought your flow game 'cause we about to bang this out
And it's just like that, see we don't try to be professional
We put it all on wax and spill it out like at confessional
Intentional demeanor and authentic in the mind
We indulging in our thoughts, remain perceptive of the rhyme
So the concept is practical and really not too difficult
But also not too simple, it don't to be have so lyrical
How about space and it's infinite dimensions
Or we could just flow it with no ties to a direction
Yo that's the best way, and that's my favorite
We take the rhythm, science, math, and we play with it
Improvising the dialogue and the topic
While incorporating earlier conversations, we'll rock it
Like we're walking down the street, yo on some nonchalant shit
And while you're walking I could hit you up with a call quick
Like I'm out of work, so and so, maybe we can write
And you'd be like 'Dope' while you're out trying to grab a bite
And while you're skating describing what's on your way
In a casual conversation or vibing about your day
You say you got a dope idea yo for a song
Here it is, oh shit, we've been making it all along
Yo this is how most of the best ideas are created
My only question is how do we start to demonstrate it
Well this is just a thought so it might be kinda rough
How about a: Peace brother
What's good
Nothing much
