Keep Your Blades Sharp

bless this time of timelessness
each day's challenge is to find balances
refine talents in rhyme
malice's absence in this is love's practice divine
synthesize the style in the mix
slip off your kicks
turn it up – i'm up to old tricks
play cool – tune thoughts to breath control
mic technique exact – exceptional
still in defiance – build self reliance
trying to do right through the blue night
the soul night – the whole night through – enact the cut
my saw blade's sharp, and that's what's up
purified flow with the skill instilled
each pass on the path is distilled with force of will
drop tunes though the opportune moments
are few and far between – no postponing
when the chance arise
cause if you're waiting on a flawless block
of the clock face to rock
you'll waste the shots you've got to break through
stay true – focused – patient – make do
all opportunities available optimized
rephrase and rewrite if it ain't rocking right
rhythm to the rhyme to the lateral flex
balanced with the meaning you strive to express
calibrate as circumstance necessitates
next integrate all lessons and levitate
whether best known or less known
the edge of my blade stays next to the whetstone
the song plays – no wrong way or right way
cold-blooded knifeplay – night on the highway
ride keeps rolling through the soul, ethereal
style is subtle like the dark materials
