Flaws

Never in my wildest would i be thinking
That over this mic could i be singing
An introspection in 20 sections
Of all the facets of my imperfections
Down the great halls of our shared history
Walked giants like Einsteins and Socrates
Against these Shakespearean personalities
What to be said about an iddy biddy me?
So what comes after is but only
My own little personal memento mori
It's something to anchor my humble humor
And something for children to remember
That after every plunder we sit to ponder
And contemplate the chinks mucking up our armor
So come, take a look, all ye future brothers
At all the cracks and all the holes of Big Popper!

Whether i want to choose to see
These are the flaws a-flowin' thru me
Whether i'm blind, whether i lie
These are the flaws a-fluxin' thru my
Divine received identity
אהיה אשר אהיה, أخي
So please come see ye posteriority
Me draw the flaws a-flaunting on me

I suppose it suffice to start by saying
That he wasn't no paragon from the beginning
From the day mom's piss anticipated
A blastocyst undifferentiated
Untimely ripped, this unsightly monk head
With many presets unseemly unset
Packed with an active imagination
And prone to emotional inflammation
Rating high on reminiscence
Picking at the scabs of his hippocampus
Can be intensely solipsistic
Oversensitive, underexpressive
In his youth, he made a rubble
Half rebel, half in his bubble
Failed lit - for failing to ID irony
Flunked orgo - pushing arrows improperly
Too lost in life's infinities
Too busy searching for higher symmetries
Too trapped by his poverty mentality
Falling in love too damn easily
Words - they were knives - left him in anguish
To this day he still can't make love in English
Sheltered in התנך and البقره
The letters of Paul, the त्रिपिटक
Gets too into one mode of thinking
Psychoanalyzing all who's criticizing
Moralizing towards his own glorium
And Epic Fails fill his life's game film
A lousy lover twice over
Tried to push out a co-founder
By and by became the same herb user
Never said goodbye to his grandfather
Even now he plots intently
In the curvature of his own infogravity
And from that cavity enact irreality
His infinite capacity for incapacity
Second guessing himself way too often
His delivery never quite the precision
Too f*king g*damn suggestible
And too pessimistically subliminal
Too many things trigger insecurity
Too self-possessed by his own legacy
Too looking for a place by Socrates
A flaming pile of self denial!
Now here's the irony employed properly
Shine but a light and all his wits flee
Reverts classically when he gets too nervous
Welcome into GEO's Inner Universe!

Whether i want to choose to see
These are the flaws a-flowin' thru me
Whether i'm blind, whether i lie
These are the flaws a-fluxin' thru my
Divine received identity
Grafi-ffiti a-splattered on me
So please come see ye cognoscenti
Define the flaws afflicted in me

So i'm too in the dark how all this happened
Life's like an arc bending thru chapters
I guess all this harking for greater order
Has parked one a few frequencies higher
Mistake by mistake i bricked my mansion
Built and lost a few concessions
Marched side-by-side makers of doers
And raced human-to-human reconstruers
Learned to see the Me in everybody
The vast soul wave of humanity
With all my faults creeping thru and thru it
Here interfering, oddly there congruent
So what if i gathered all this simply
These sinusoidal forms in cosmicality
And reflect it back in high-resolution
All my flaws flowing freely in solution
With some ablution, tho no dilution
And full of eloquently loquacious locution
Behold - the genesis and-or renaissance
Of an Anthropomorphene GEOconsciousness!

An Anthropomorphene GEOconsciousness (repeat)

'How could u, u hollow bastard
With an air so yellow, and a voice so haggard
By adulation, by accolation become
The most important minstrel of a generation?
So completely, so singlehandledly
Shucked off ur one chance at obscurity
Didn't wait to face down the tsunami
Nor hit the grave with the bone in ur belly!'
Well interestingly is that u are right
GEO never would've been born in the light
Fate penned a knight who had to practice
To dance with the darkness beneath the surface
And from that darkness extract his compass
So whether not u choose to accept this
He'll be over in that corner steadfastly
Cackling out some crude forms of self-therapy!

Cackling out some crude forms of self-therapy (repeat)

Now that u have an explicit record
Of my faults in rough chronologic order
Romancing the throne has been such a pleasure
But only was i sent to send some reminders
That some things matter more than others
That a giant sees nothing looking in the mirror
That self-expression follows self-expansion
So float a mansion down this mighty river!
To think like a god, and act like a man
And dream like a kid when u get the chance
To tend to ur habitual momenta
And division of knowledge stifles wisDUH
Anyone who robs u of momentary bliss
Can be grounds for more musical insightfulness
That life always bites back those not in balance
Across they multidimensional magnificence
And if ever chance leads u to stand and ramble
From a place among the pantheon of Standard Candles
Represent LOVE as TRUE as u can
For that's all we have in the end
And, FRIEND, i promise i wouldn't bluff ya
That besides you stands a GEOMAFIA
From New Zealand onto Italia
Following in the footsteps of Elishah|Chaitanya|Vyasa

Whether i want to choose to see
These are the flaws a-flowin' thru me
Whether i'm blind, whether i lie
These are the flaws a-fluxin' thru my

Who forever remains a flawed human being
Who gives a f*k that we keep on living
To let fly far and wide little impartings
Of Legends long made, Legends in the making!
And perchance u query him to ponder upon
His credence in said sabiduriacons
Well if i DIDN'T believe all this silly thinking
WHY THE HELL would i be even singing?!

LORD here i am sat down to ponder
Thank u for leading me ever onwards
And every mistake i made along the way
Has made me what i am today
Well i'll be perfect in life 2 times only
Once in the womb, thence in the tomb
Ambition must grow with responsibility
May You grace me Methuselah's nine-nine-sixty!

Whether i want
To choose to see
These are the flaws a-flowin'
And it's like that y'all!
