k-os - B-Boy Stance

Yeah
It's so hard to remain authentic
Everything around me is changing
Even the earth is moving through different places in outer space
But one thing remains the same
To the end of time I think I'll remain
I think I'll just stay

[chorus]
A b-boy, standin' in my b-boy stance [8x]

From the top of the highest summit
Again rerun it
A hundred and forty four shimmerin' lights stunnin'
To quick for the human eye
To catch a glimse
You know pimps cannot convince with their attempts
Of emceein'
Blowin' words in the wind
While we ascend to limit the sins of pretend
We're still human
When in fact we're only half
The other path extends infinity to the max
I try to laugh
But they pull me down like crabs in a bucket
With hands in my pocket
I don't wanna laugh
Heaven only knows
So Kheaven keeps them
Threat'nin' to blow to turn black prose to white prose

With words moving at light speed and then they blurred
It's all so incredible decibles at a glance
Standin' in my b-boy stance

[chorus]

This one leads the way

Break ... break ... break
Now cut it up
Cut it up back to back
On the wheels o' steel
Cut it up back to back

Break
Elevate, meditate, eliminate
Thoughts from my pad keep knockin' up on my gate
Should I let 'em in the answer's not to debate
But to observe to debatin' and then reap in all the hate
Yo
Party people listen up
At the drop of a dime
They took cameras to Africa
For pictures that rhyme
Over oh, yes
The great pretenders
Religious entertainers that wanna be light sabers
Damn, another diamond from the mine
Another cold secret they grope for but can't find
Can't copy sketches o' pictures with no lines
I guess it's just a case of the blind leading the blind
Alright, I flippin a session
Of rockin' and roll
Losin' control
Payin' my toll
Who's in control
I'm displayin' a role
So people remember that
I'm just a servant of rap hopin' to bring it back

[chorus]

This one leads the way

I'm just a beat boy
And it brings me joy
I'm just a beat boy
Callin' death to Troy

I'm just a beat boy
And it brings me joy
I'm just a beat boy

I'm just a beat booooy
Yeah
