Why Not? - Us3

My mind grinds the sands of time

Deaf, dumb and blind, I blow your mind with lines divine

Now prior to my last event

I meditated, graduated from the floss for lent

Stopped rhyming for the ice, the twenties, that whip

Started rhyming for got the love, my god, and my gift

Immaculate

I’m December 25th, 26th,

I’m kwanzaa, Kunjufu Kuwanzaa

I meander through the stanzas for answers

A rhyme chancellor

You die by the gun, now add it up dun

What’s the sum 360

We hot like Mojave

Lyrically, we the trinity

That’s Us3, Reg Wyns, L-I-B

Lo’s flows are strong prose tight as your corn rows

Why not?

Why not unlock mine eyes to see the glory like Denzel or Dr.

King

Freedom will never ring no matter how we sing if the liberty

bell is broke

Why not revolt if you can’t cope with the feigned truth

On this tight rope I avoid the noose as a black male youth

I produce high flyings act over the wack

I’m overproof

Few despise me

Why not recognise me

I’m jamming for the culture like Stevie and Bill Cosby

I wonder

We defensive when we say the kids wild out

We’re teaching them, so we should take the time out, to

Use the vizniz and get the red out

In an instant, conference to brew out

Downsize

Foldgers thoughts crystallised

I open third eyes, free jail cells

Spreadsheets, I excel

Duracell, we energise

I pass right through your lies

Keep my eyes on the prize

Why not?

I’m a rhyme antagonist

I’m writing my story and I’m the protagonist

If not for the beat I might be an evangelist

Still free the masses

Teachers teach classes

Aristocracy getting put right on their asses by the proletariat

I chide mc’s out of their pride, they’re fictitious

Whether stage, screen, or jazz shit you’re still with us

I stay young black and prodigious

The things I’ve seen’ll make a Christian sacrilegious

I’m indigenous as the Cherokee

I’m hip-hop, you’re a hip-hop hypocrisy

Pause for the cause

We brawl and break down laws

Oxcutta to glass jaws

To eat we break laws

Eliminate the wars for I’m reppin for the cause

Eliminate the wars, see I’m reppin for the cause

Why not?
