So now I'm a rapper... this journal entry posted on August.26.2004 So tonight I went to open mic determined to really go for it. I have a lot of poems that were written to be delivered powerfully but any time I've ever read them I've read them rather timidly. So tonight I really got after it and people liked it a lot. I did this one from memory. ----------------------------------------------------- Sleeping Awake - by green.earth.al - Jan.26.2004 ----------------------------------------------------- Turn the key and press the gas and just go park on the highway And sip some Starbucks coffee it's the dawn of a same day Except your working much harder now but still collecting the same pay And when you stop to pump ya gas ya ass ain't got that much to say Okay, Don't make no eye contact, you spozed to keep to yourself Don't waste time talking to somebody, you got to try and get that wealth Just do for self, forget about ya family's mental health "They'll forgive me when they see HDTV on the shelf" So anyway, What you know about these gas plantations? location, location, location, location that's why we had to take their nation, it helps you at the gas station It's convenient to ignore... the war for global domination Go ahead feel powerless against it, just stay stuck in the sand don't try too hard to understand, and just keep helpin the man Look ya children in the eye, and lie, and say you'll do the best that you can But you have that remote in your hand, while they're raping the land We need to export McCulture?
