Horizons

I might as well and go in
I might as well and go out
Some speaking like they knowing
Some speaking like they don't doubt
Some feel like they be chosen
I don't like talking profound
Some doors seem like they closing
I go and open doors now

If it were up to me
I don't like talking about ability
People see your worth take advantage of practicality
How useful would you be to them
They see you as utility
So you got nothing to prove in the end
Play it cool. Do you see?

The landscape mistaken for a knoll
It's wide open
Escape the void making you numb
Only for the moment
Couldn't care about motivation
To get us stoked and
We don't need a fleeting glimpse of reason
Just to keep us going
Would you rather be over or underestimated?
I see the pros and cons but wonder bout the situation
Don't overlook overestimation man that's the case and
Some people see the higher standard and rise to the occasion

But check this out
Shit is interesting to think about
But only for the short run
Cause you get the mental edge
But it won't last you fortunes
They'll find out what you're lacking in the end
And it backfires what is left then you're for sure done
But it's only part of the apprentice phase
To go out your way and
To prove to all of them you're more than
The image set by others you ain't nothing
Like it not even a portion
Go and get that bread call it a store run

Say, how you been, how you do that
Noisy E, it's been another minute, I'm amused that
You sticking to your word, writing verbs
Man I can't say that's impressive
What's your worth in the market
Think about my proposition

How bout fuck it?
Get all your deals
Shove em in the oven
Cause they half baked
Don't wanna get involved end of discussion
Imma do this on my own terms
There ain't no point in rushing
Overnight sensations rise to the top
Then forgotten
Cause the foundation will crumble at the feet all of a sudden
Imma work my way, take my time
Stay in tune with my grind
Worth the wait, in due time
To come up with impressive rhymes
That you hit by the second time
Lyrics you gotta underline
The kinda words you keep on repeat
Cause I'm working over time
Ain't just dropping heat, I'm dropping bombs
Just like Oppenheimer
Time to open minds then Imma
Open up your eyes you gotta
See the view, don't compromise it
It's your vision, your horizon

Too focused on value forgot the need for emptiness
The need for the negative spaces and cues
To empty the mind of preconceived notions

The saying goes
Though thirty spokes may form the wheel
It is the hole within the hub
Which gives the wheel utility
It is not the clay the potter throws
Which gives the pot its usefulness
But the space within the shape
From which the pot is made
Without a door, the room cannot be entered
And without windows it is dark
Such is the utility of non-existence

Lao Tzu
Chapter 11
Aim to open horizons and comprehension
Aim to learn with every step and every lesson
