Lyrics

Surge on the verge of making history
Purge to emerge with the victory
Discouraging words that curve your will to succeed
Weight of the world's strings cut, now you're free
Higher and higher, higher and higher
Higher and higher, higher, higher
It's in my grasp, fillin' up the gaps
Heart is beating faster on this last lap
Visions for the I to see made for you to not
Unless we're in your city 'bout to shock the spot
Leave my name out 'cause it ain't about me
Flesh is the spirit's garment truthfully
Be receptive, take it in, it's nice
Delivering the word with help from Christ
Highsmen
LMNO is a highsman
Writer's Block are highsmen
Visionary are wisemen
Watch your face's experssion as my hands time from time
Seen too many pieces being crossed out in lines
Chill on the wrath 'cause I never jump boats
Washed up on these beaches still breathing, stayed afloat
Wrist-bled painting pictures, vocalized street scriptures
Rituals daily bless when the mind is at rest
I confess to the crime of burning rhymes with a lot of
Those who title MC but to me I'm just a writer
With respect for the art still pursuing my degree
Some doubt Dannu's time 'cause they don't know he
Has a gift to lift weight, giving space while other fake
The road that they take is like a mirrorless lake
When as still as I stood understanding my place
Is the finish without running 'cause life is not a race
But a pace of a beat, rhythm set on a sheet
My poetry is of me when I stand on my feet
Higher and higher, higher and higher
Higher and higher, higher, higher
Just a passive fancy hand me nothing when I'm higher
Elevated by success and not the Buddha bless or cadaver
Sugar rush, tighter grips I must hold on, you got it bust Writer's
Block will touch your soul, we the providers, enlighters
Clear the brain of clutter to focus my visions brighter
Intrusions of free thinking break hardest heads in spiter
Thick skulls signals penetrate, face fire
Till withstanding forces tire
And the will to succeed will then proceed
Betting neither the guts nor the glory will inspire
The stagnant ones to victory their desire
Surge on the verge of making history
Purge to emerge with the victory
Discouraging words that curve your will to succeed
Weight of the world's strings cut, now you're free
Higher and higher, higher and higher
Higher and higher, higher, higher
