I just had to put this out there before the morning speaks
my eyes creep…...tired from the lack of sleep
it’s pressure see! but damn it…it’s precious see!
putting effort against the clock just to get over the peak.

and over the week, time to let your mind speak free
when I’m not telling jokes, hip hop takes over me
Cuz it’s supposed to be!
An Open door for floetry
Cuz when I unleash my beat it will scorch the heat!

I should be laying-in-my-bed Sleeepin!
but Instead- I-lay-awake Dreamin !
figuring-out-my-plans and surviving for the weekend
catching no more breaks til the stakes start decreasing
Grateful for my friends who save my life like a beacon

(My assignment is due in the morning and I’m still not freakin)

I’ll bring it back one more time til the time stops escaping
Til my mind ceases in the loss of concentration
Til the flow breaks from this written communication
Until this passes… I can’t begin my dissertation

This is the perfect art of productive procrastination
Instead of doing my work I’m working on my own creation
will it get me marks? or get me to my destination?
or is it just a sequence of words stirring contemplation?

Either way it’s fun, that’s why freestyle is amazing
you just ramble off your mind without any formal trainin’
and if you mess up …there’s no penalty for delayin
I’d rather skip a line than be afraid to start playin.
