The Scarecrow Speaks
Deep Puddle Dynamics Lyrics

Okay everyone
Listen up, pay attention to what I'm about to say.

put away your boyish desires
Stop indulging in immature wants and cravings.

Your buoyant sighs
Stop expressing exaggerated sighs of frustration or dissatisfaction.

Your rolling eyes
Stop showing your annoyance or disapproval through eye-rolling.

Your lust for roll and rock
Your desire for mindless entertainment and superficial pleasures.

Your lust for getting rocks off with other follies
Your desire for sexual gratification and engaging in meaningless flings.

All your desires for couch and TV
Your longing for a sedentary lifestyle filled with television and laziness.

Pick up a book, pick up a shovel
Instead, engage in intellectual pursuits or productive physical labor.

Put down the gun, throw up the fist
Give up violence and anger, and instead engage in peaceful confrontation and dialogue.

Throw intelligent words in this game of conversation
Contribute meaningful and thoughtful words in discussions and conversations.

Try a new arrangement
Consider a different approach or perspective.

Dollars and sensibility
Balance your financial concerns with your rationality.

Intelligence and ability
Cultivate your intellect and skills.

Eloquence and nobility
Develop the ability to speak and express yourself effectively and with integrity.

Delicatessens
Appreciate and savor the finer things in life.

Treat your girl like you treat your TV
Respect and cherish your romantic partner as much as you value your entertainment.

How you should use your headphones and positive role models
Listen to uplifting music or influential figures who inspire and guide you.

Try staying home
Spend time in self-reflection and introspection.

Stop trying to prove
Cease your efforts to constantly seek validation or prove yourself to others.

Stop trying to be, stop trying to do
Quit attempting to conform or fit into societal expectations, and focus on genuine self-expression.

Just be proof, do, and exist
Instead, embody authenticity, take action, and simply exist in the present moment.

If you're lackin pretend
If you lack something, pretend you have it until you actually attain it.

Call few people enemies and call fewer people friends
Be discerning in labeling others as enemies or friends, maintaining a small circle of trusted individuals.

Don't do it for the wealth, do it all for the love
Pursue endeavors driven by passion and love, rather than solely for financial gain.

Love everything you do, and do nothing halfheartedly
Approach every task with love and commitment, avoiding half-hearted efforts.

Be what you speak
Ensure your words align with your actions and character.

Man, never speak on what you be
Do not boast or brag about who you are or what you have achieved.

Even if you're lost, front like you got a plan
Even if you feel uncertain or confused, project an image of confidence and purpose.

It ain't that hard, but stand if you're ready to be a man
Being a man is not excessively difficult, but it requires the readiness to take responsibility and face challenges.

I come to you
I approach and address you.

With one heart
With sincerity and earnestness.

Feeling emotionally shattered or divided.

Lashed hands and many flaws
Hands marked by hardships and imperfections.

a man
A human being.

In return I ask only an ego-less unbiased listen
All I request is an open-minded and unbiased receptiveness to what I have to say.

For, what I speak of offers freedom from mind
My words convey the potential liberation of the mind.

Freedom from a focused impulse
Release from being driven solely by narrow desires or impulses.

Freedom
True liberation and autonomy.

And not at all the spangled, yankee-doodle
Not the shallow and patriotic version.

Union musket encompassed sense of liberty
Superficial idea of freedom associated with national pride.

Which our forefathers in Holy-Wood have fed and sold us for scores
The distorted notion of freedom propagated by the media and Hollywood.

I'm eluding and rightfully so to salvage clearheadedness of composed fated state of human being
I am intentionally avoiding these misconceptions to restore a state of clear and composed thinking for humanity.

No grand inquisitor myself
I am not placing myself in a position of authority or judgment.

I pour forth a pensive frown upon and frustrated humble however furious
I express a contemplative expression of concern and frustration, while remaining humble and composed.

This reason for being here
The purpose behind my presence and message.

This well you've found is phenomen-all-o-ne
This deep understanding you have stumbled upon is truly extraordinary and unique.

In the immortal words of Oliver Wendell Holmes
As Oliver Wendell Holmes once said,

A mind that is stretched to a new idea never returns to its original dimension
Once a mind is exposed to a new idea, it forever expands and evolves beyond its original state.

Simplistically
In a simple and straightforward manner.

Topsoil is no seashell full of bitter ocean
The surface appearance does not represent the depth of one's experiences or emotions.

Body but it can be
However, it does have the potential to reveal hidden depths and complexities.

Changing for and from triumph to mystery
Transforming from a state of triumph or certainty to one of intrigue and uncertainty.

Every somehow has a place
Every being or person has a unique purpose or role in the world.

Where you dare not set foot and can't see a thing
A place that is unknown and beyond comprehension.

So weave those silver threads into soul-leveled bonds
Intertwine meaningful connections and relationships at a deep and soulful level.

And be unbounded no longer
Break free from limitations and constraints.

Manipulative
Deceptive and controlling.

Let it go
Release the desire to manipulate or control others.

Go
Proceed or embark on a journey of self-discovery.

Let the wandering take it all in
Allow yourself to explore and embrace new experiences and perspectives.

Generate
Create or produce something new.

Make you yours
Take ownership of your life and decisions.

My masters, my pupils, my equals
Referring to the audience as both mentors, students, and peers.

Drop, decorate
Let go of unnecessary baggage and adorn or embellish your life with positive experiences.

I implore you
I strongly urge or plead with you.

Just think
Engage in critical thinking and reflection.

Let me address you with two conflicting topics at this moment
Allow me to discuss two contrasting ideas with you right now.

Two paths I've roamed it
I have personally experienced and explored both paths.

Intention to hit home with this discussion
I aim to resonate deeply with these topics.

And make you pawn to strengthen your words
To empower you and enhance your ability to communicate effectively.

Not talking racial connotation, but loosely tied with bees and birds
Although not referring to race, there is a loose connection to the concepts of nature and instinct.

Also loosely tied with opposites
Similarly connected to contrasting ideas or concepts.

The depths of negativity in your soul
The profound negativity that resides within you.

Let it take control, and you can see deeper into the hole
Allowing it to dominate your thoughts and emotions will reveal the depths of your despair or darkness.

Of self-destruction its obstruction of the opposite feeling
The hindrance caused by self-destructive tendencies prevents experiencing the opposite, positive emotions.

My fellow men and women, its love and hate with which we're dealing
As human beings, we grapple with the dual emotions of love and hate.

I've experienced both words
I have personally felt and dealt with both love and hate.

Let's ponder my theory and thought
Let's reflect on the theory and ideas I am about to present.

On these two and the correlation that each other has brought
On the relationship and connection between these two emotions.

I've sought the answer and I've found hate is stronger than love
After my search for an answer, I have concluded that hate carries more power than love.

I love to hate you, I hate to love you, hate always ends up above
I find pleasure in hating you, but also feel conflicted since hate always prevails.

It's much easier to say you hate than to say you love a person
Expressing hatred requires less vulnerability than admitting love for someone.

But easier to say you love material and currency when it's dispersin
It is simpler to express love for material possessions and money as they are being spent or distributed.

I've realized long ago that either word is a delicate topic so
I have come to understand that both love and hate are sensitive subjects.

Hence the circle on my finger I.D.O. on that day was my flow
Therefore, the ring on my finger symbolizes my commitment and dedication to my artistic expression.

And although I see many problems in my fellow man
Despite recognizing the flaws and issues in others.

Hatred of others is absolutely not my master plan
My intention is not to harbor hatred towards others as a guiding principle in life.

My other spiritual half has taught me much about my true feelings
My spiritual side has enlightened me about my genuine emotions.

I was slipping into mental remission
I was descending into a state of mental decline or regression.

but it was brought into the healing process
However, it was salvaged and incorporated into the process of my emotional and mental recovery.

I consider myself blessed when I think
I feel fortunate and grateful when I reflect on my experiences.

Floating up above the majority makes others look like they sink
Rising above the norm or common mindset makes others appear inferior or mediocre.

Hating, you give up nothing
By hating, you do not lose anything.

Love, you give it up all
Love demands your complete surrender and devotion.

So I smirk at all of y'all
I find amusement or satisfaction in observing all of you.

While you await my downfall
While you anticipate or hope for my failure.

Condescending
Displaying an arrogant or superior attitude.

The lake dove into
The artist immerses themselves in a metaphorical lake.

When you finally acknowledge that I'm not pretending
When you accept that I am genuine and not feigning anything.

Follow the language, the direction, the dialect
Pay attention to the language, message, and style of communication.

The cadence, the enunciation
The rhythm, pronunciation, and clarity of speech.

Emphasis, pretentiousness
The importance placed on certain words or ideas, and the act of pretending or putting on airs.

Assumptions makin an ass of you
Making assumptions can make you look foolish or ridiculous.

Point A in the air you share with me
Drawing a connection or alignment between two individuals in thought or understanding.

Point be now draw a straight line connecting us
Now, continue connecting us by drawing a clear and direct line.

Wait, wait man who's not paying attention?
Hold on, who among you is not fully engaged or attentive?

See, class here's the problem
Listen, everyone, here lies the issue.

y'all all need to stop resting and collectin dust
You all need to stop being complacent and stagnant.

My stance resembles anger but no your perception's crooked
Although my posture may appear angry, it is your perspective that is distorted.

Now be some good little bastards, turn your textbooks to page 7
Now, follow my instruction and obediently flip to page 7 in your textbooks.

Where it reads that God got drunk, drove heaven into a tree
In that section, it says that God became intoxicated and crashed heaven into a tree.

Now there's no reasons left for you to continue to breathe
According to this passage, there are no longer any justifications for you to exist.

Haha, just joking only trying to see who's listenin
Haha, just kidding, I'm only testing who is paying attention.

Now heads up, time to test the potential of your faults
Now, pay attention, it is time to assess your weaknesses and flaws.

And the results will stay confidential
The outcome of this test will remain confidential.

For as long as you face the front of your self esteem
As long as you confront and acknowledge your self-worth.

Lose focus, get broken at the seams
If you lose concentration or become distracted, you will become emotionally shattered.

Let's open up the conversation for comments
Let's allow for feedback and input in this discussion.

To complement your circumcised mind state while I ride on your anxieties
To enhance and balance your limited or narrow mindset while I explore and exploit your worries.

Trying to speak to the class and justify the act
Attempting to address the group and rationalize my behavior or intentions.

By pointing my finger at your head and askin you what the fuck is that?!
By jabbing my finger towards your head and questioning what your thoughts or beliefs are.

Thank you, thank you
Expressing gratitude for the attention and engagement of the audience.
