Illogic
Yellow
[Verse 1]
You are the whole world, the reason the seasons shift
Both ends of the globe are touching your fingertips
You’re why time and things exist, the reason this is being written
You’re bringing the sweetest gift and I gotta thank you for that
I write a bar for every time you laugh and every word extends a paragraph
Shit, I was talking one night like I’m not an emcee
I heard the rhythm of a heartbeat that started to speak so
Level the tempo yellow, measure the highs, ya
Beautiful lies inside of a sunrise
This is a remix that’s mixed with a reprise
And this is that same shit that’s making me realize
We was sent here for one battle
And that’s for us to step inside of the sun’s shadow
And that’s why the sky encompasses me and you
And it can only hold us as close as it chooses to

[Refrain]
That’s why the sky is yellow
That’s why the sky is yellow
That’s why the sky is yellow
That’s why the sky is yellow

[Verse 2]
Primary like red and blue, blood true, a love hue
Above, within, below too, yellow to flow through
Sickened shut ins, squeeze between green and orange
Tight inside the spectrum, nightly white to feel the fluoresce
Crazy sip, feel sane, daisies dip, heal pain
Miss my ship and proof the whip, took God’s trip and still gained
It’s real, man, to understand, equalize the underhand
Gotta crawl before you walk, before you walk, gotta stand
And plan to leave your plan, when the plan changes
For grand ranges, [?] sink in quicksand, thinking we strangest
Bang this ‘cause it’s dangerous to just
Think it’s only rap, konnies get clapped, call it angel dust
At every angle, bust, universal art illistics
Biscuits to cure sickness, thickness is pure mystic
For sure business, grateful I missed that fast cheese
Take the early bus, [?], you must leave
[Refrain]
That’s why the sky is yellow
That’s why the sky is yellow
That’s why the sky is yellow
That’s why the sky is yellow

[Verse 3: Illogic]
I write in sunbeams, the sun seems to give lift to mischief
With this gift, by God opens doors closed before
Open pores to perspirate, each drip creates lakes to wade in
Praying for day to shed light for my kids to play in
I know I’m lost, left to fight dark, I gotta spark but need a match
Need to reach, learn to teach so I can’t relax
I gotta press in to lessons learned, steppin’ path, earn lashes
Knowing it’s better to have cracks than rose-colored glasses
Perfection is a pastime, rejection is normalcy
Time can’t rewind so why do we recycle conformity?
It’s all a screenplay, full of actors and extras
So the bastards with the power mandate blindness for directors
Where do we go from here? The box office or the writer’s bench
I’m still looking to find my niche, escape same thing, make mainframe glitch
It’s all yellow where I stand, hands glow, holding pen to lend to a friend
To jot down final thoughts on a day that life ends

[Refrain]
That’s why the sky is yellow
That’s why the sky is yellow
That’s why the sky is yellow
That’s why the sky is yellow
That’s why the sky is yellow
That’s why the sky is yellow
That’s why the sky is yellow
That’s why the sky is yellow
