Look at that Bobby Digital in the lobby
Shout out to Bobby Digital
Ayy, dog, ruby yacht
What else we gon' do now? We gon' do somethin' nice and simple
It is? That's my religion too
Alright, we gon' do, I'm gon' do a poem now
The title of the poem is "Hallelujah, I Love Jazz"
Dark openly, gamma rays washed over me
Fidgets with hidden crest
The fickle house guest giving heartfelt thanks
Titanic sank 'cause black people weren't allowed on it
How's that for power?
Spirits get hungry and credentials get devoured
Halfway there, they feelin' laissez-faire
Personally, I'm more hands on, stand strong
As a late evening doppio
Long face at the supermercado
Merriment stammer lopside
Coded messages on gamma ferric oxide
I'm a terrorist with a mock Mai Tai
Blissed out on the sunset
Askin' my son, "are you having fun yet?"
He grins loudly, how his granny did
We be black as some mission figs
Flourishing future to past
And that's what the mission is
Remain unashamed to be sensitive
As such is the first stage of vigilance
As such is the first stage of vigilance
As such is the first stage of vigilance
To be sensitive, dig
Two weeks after turning 19
I gave birth to my first born, my son
Four months later, I had my first panic attack
I remember lying down
I remember putting my son down, unable to catch my breath
Ashy as my turban is
Bad mood, citing atmospheric disturbances
Detritus and oil fields
Place littered with human shields
Hosts for delinquents
I'm just tryin' to remember the next pose in the sequence
Six four and my back hurts
Mixmaster wrote the passwords
Known for choppin' samples and evading capture
Obnoxious laughter, jazz and rapture
A structured approach to letting go
Coached from your very own stereo
Chest feeling so tight and just lying on the bed crying
Certain I'm fast about to die
"The Spring Cricket Considers the Question of Negritude"
I was playing my tunes all by myself
I didn't know anybody else who could play along
Sure, the tunes were sad, but sweet too
And wouldn't come until the day gave out
You know that way the sky has of dangling her last bright wisps?
That's when the ache would bloom inside until I couldn't wait
I knelt down to scrape myself clean
And didn't care who heard

Line by Line Meaning
And with this Christmas wish is missed
I regret not being able to convey my message through this Christmas wish
The point I could convey
The message that I wanted to pass on to you
If only I could find the words to say to let You know
I wish I had the right words to tell you how important you are to me
How much You've touched my life because
The profound effect you have had on my life
Here is where You're finding me
The place where I am at this moment
In the exact same place as New Year's Eve
The same physical space where I was last at the New Year's Eve
And from the lack of my persistency
Due to my inability to stay committed
We're less than half as close as I wanna be
We are not as close as I wish we would be
And the first time that You opened Your eyes
When you were born and opened your eyes for the first time
Did You realize that You would be my Savior?
Were you aware that you would become my rescuer and protector?
And the first breath that left Your lips
The moment you took your first breath
Did You know that it would change this world forever?
Were you aware that it would have a massive impact on this world?
And so this Christmas I'll compare
During this Christmas, I will reflect and compare
The things I've felt in prior years
The emotions I experienced in the previous years
To what this midnight made so clear
To what became evident to me at midnight
That You have come to meet me here
That you visited me here
To look back and think that
Reflecting on the past and realizing that
This Baby would one day save me
This infant would one day become my savior
And the hope that, that You give
The expectation you instill in me
That You were born so I might really live
You were born so I could have a meaningful existence
And I, I celebrate the day that You were born to die
I rejoice in the day you were born knowing that you would die for me
So I could one day pray for You to save my life
So that one day, I could plead for you to rescue me
Pray for You to save my life
Ask for your protection and deliverance
Pray for You to save my life
Ask for your protection and deliverance
