Wishful Thinking
[Sage: Verse 1]
Wishful thinking never had
More an ambition i am bitten by the written
Say I'm kitten litter stay trapped in the bag
Let me out
Deface your expression with surprise
Why you shout
Idioms idiot for why you do I P. Diddy it
You live for it i kill for it
Fire in my eyes insidious
Syd owe us build a bridge to cross
Opera have a house homeless in hip hop
Begging for my words to be treated as poetry
Begging for a dollar they enjoy being free
That means I’m spent in this world
With my expensive taste set place and imma eat words
Pour a shot sip that bell biv devoe
They greeting me hi but let’s keep it on the low
Their seeing me try (thats) why they have to make it so
Damn hard why can’t i make it thanking people i don’t know
Thank god why i never felt his presence
Thank the lord why i can’t take all the credit
My earliest memories my documentary
For real I’m the king and started on that trajectory
Lent my life you barely last 40 days
While you give up temporary I’m making permanent gain
Never give up never quit don’t ever sit
Down unless the paper under press of the ink
Don’t mean incorporated or money mouth are slanging
Be the author of your eyes and don’t let anyone else patent
Don’t let anyone review they should’ve seen the first time
Carry bags of sights call them traumatize
Fuck I’m tired but
[Sage & Sonia: Hook]
Wishful thinking never had x4
[Pezimist: Verse 2]
Step inside the mind of a nineteen year old
Mind freaking alone, no speak, in a zone
My flow is preserved in the madness of earth
I rather deserve to conserve my brain and my nerves
I’ve heard, absurdities, in these halls of university
It hurts to be, an outsider like hercules, mercy me
Out of courtesy, I was trying to further see
Because zeus foretold of me coming in his prophecy
I’m out of place, like i came fourth, from the dust
And ruined your plans with my brainstorm, I mean I must
Be insane or deranged, to read these lines on this page
Record the rhymes and just say, dismay
Sage you can take my flows, just cite us and verse us
As long as your hearts on the right side, like situs inversus
Then we won't have a problem with these cyphers and verses
Except that the listeners will end up riding in hearses
I try to keep my thoughts wishful, sharp as this pencil
It’s hard, I’ve hurt the people that cared, its detrimental
As my heart beat bounces to the sound of instrumentals
I get reverential, keep my mind confidential
The notes in the iCloud know me like nobody else
But get your head out the sky, stop being somebody else
DID or MPD, coz im on these MP3s
First me, lives healthily, write my music stealthily
The second is irreverent, reckless, with a checklist
Of rappers to toss, Leave em sour, War head less
Third me, is the one you’ll see and hear become synonymous
But I won’t say with what and I’ll just keep myself anonymous
Wishes in sarcophagus, Ambitions toward prominence
So tell the Pharaoh's the votes are in, and its unanimous
[Sage & Sonia: Hook]
