r.a.p. ferreira - reciting the alpha’s bet lyrics
[intro]
okay, let me see what the poets are saying
[verse]
i remember thinking the water felt tepid
yet and still it was boiling in seconds
suspend sentence in the middle of direct questioning
winds blowing west of me
looking ahead has always been my strong suit
esoteric movements under the guise of kung fu
i remember they jumped me
i don’t recall anyone jumping you
and so when i recite thе alphabet i tend to scream thе letter l
n+ggas don’t know me very well
and that’s by design
two and one made nine
there’s the captain of a sunken ship
my anchor is my wonderment
the gall to recall every single pitfall on the motheship
jubilantly
was enthused to me
and that’s the blues to me
i kept it funky with the munster step
called it deep when they couldn’t spelunk the depths
we didn’t weep
no gnashing of t++th below today
we hummed our songs and rowed and rowed and rowed and rowed and rowed and rowed and rowed and rowed
my momma named me ro cause i rose and rose and rose and rose and rose and rose and rose and rose
in league with the stones of the field
a man feeding his family with the vegetables a poem can yield
the words have a feel
a likable texture
kept the mouth working
now you’re yearning
lord of the peninsula
striatum, insula
insulin before pasta
p+ssed and [?] at the regatta
probably
insulin before pasta
p+ssed and [?] at the regatta
probably
and the ruby yacht gon’ rock on
[outro: sample]
if you write because you have to, and i+ and i think i do, uh, if there weren’t any books or audiences or anything, i think i’d still have to write, i might take it out a kitchen drawer every once in a while and read it to myself, but it helps root me in my world, it helps me make sense of where i am
