Know Desire

No desire take me over
like the one to reign this city
with my raps
Never wrapping it up
I hear the claps in the distance
Fuck I give about a like
Fuck you know about my life

No Recliner
Never Falling back
Will not Retire
Taking out my savings
Call me back
This rap
A telephone
Tangled up a wire
Spinning numbers
Like its pre-cell
I didn't school you
I pre-Kd
I'm self made
if you don't count
All the people that gave me
everything I know
Every reason flowed
From the faucet
Nother name for the verbal
Circle of no return
Cuz it ain't got reverb
Don't mean that I won't return
N like that I'm back
Main goal:
Strategize
Maybe attack
Only if my soldiers fed
Can we take on the fed
Deliver you rhymes like ((fed EX))
--predictable metaphors--
Learn to listen backwards
DEF
I ain't a mc
I'm a chef
Take a look at your plate
The odors and depth
Forward I've kept
My eyes pourin
Out the vision
Like an aged wine
Tunnel chase light
Checking my steps
To make em stomps
Make sure my pace right
I praise night
Not in plain site

Are you writing x3
with pen
Should you type of the rest?
Or is this rap too soft
Not your type
A duet
Between me and this life
Something you can't
take out yo pocket
We Polish
The rhythm
We parlay
And parley
On wax
Or rather wire
We wired
Determined to bringing y'all back
To this present moment
Hoping we can own it

No desire
Takes me over
Like the one
To reign this city
With my raps
Never Wrappin it up
I hear the claps in the distance
Fuck I give about a like
Fuck you know about my life
I'm fab
So mad
Science could not fuck w me
Anat
O me
Or you
Or us
Pour us
Another glass
A shatter
And brass
Section for sunsets
On prayers louder than mass
Could I Translate
Whats lying behind the mask
The math
Doesn't add up
But my spirit
Is telling me something
Tellin me laugh
I fell into crafts
That let me draw my future
Will you follow me, follow me
Into this forest
Of verses and bridges
And rivers a Chorus
An eye lash


Know Worth

Saw a nickel

thought it was a quarter

Say I'm playin, havin fun

Defeating boredom

But really off the couch

I'm fleeing "normal"

We supervised by salary

Decorum brought by a culture

Of delegating work

x2



From 1 boss to all of his workers

A format made of poison

I'm saying: my ideas worth the time

Could you absorb them

Observe the nature of my emotions

Will you adore them

Think you know my path

My wrath displayed thru

These recordings

I've got the knowledge to propose new economic models/

Structures of time/

Value of labor/

Reanalyze: the power of prayer

And prayer for power

I demand you pay me

By generation

And not by the hour



These hands were built for bass

My filth in quilts on this page

(On this day, in this way)

X4


Know Commitment

Consolidating
True commitment to my revolution
I move daily it's a movement
Then I act to make improvements
Dont play a chord
Before you've tuned it
My success is in my roots
I Call it ruins
Before azteca
My story tellAN
Like Manteca
Got you drunk
Off more than liquor
thoughts pour out
theories gettin thicker
Will u ride w me
find my center
Look up in the night
rhymes illuminated
Like the Big Dipper
I'm taking off layers
Lyrical stripper

Diligent
Vigilant
In the wind
Is where my vision is
Never been so intimate
Overwhelmed
Lost in synonyms
Just want my dividends
He Hittin her
But down the line
Someone Hittin him
Couldn't see me coming
Like a tinted win
Dough stretched out the
Alleyways to ya secrets
Every shameful thought
Painful clot
Ain't it soft
When you harder than yaTrue self
Who's left
When your gone
So high
You forgot
Every detail
I never sleep Well
I know I scream
Randomly
Lord can I detach these
Secrets holding onto me
I gotta be
Accountable
And uphold honesty
Honestly
Ive seen some slippin
Yet I've written
My direction like a map
One step forward
Then another
And so on like that

Kneed 2 Know

My

Temper tested

tempted to stop everything

And scream

But instead I move on

Make bread into crust: Croutons

Only one income

but got two jobs

magine magic

in a new world

I got coupons

99% off - off w/ they head

Ill start with Lou Dobbs

My people crossin borders

while i cross their minds

cross pollenate

then FELI KUTA

My name is gabi but please call me PUTA

laced up like syrup

y'all leave the house w/out ya shoes on

xicano hair - yalld rather cut it short

but not story i tell is too long

Lets go to court

I got a gavel

Gabilan

movin cattle, killin sheep

Wake you up in ya sleep

at war with the clock

observing other’s battles

the dynamic between

an artist, audience

the information traveling channels

light beams of voice, presence, and form

this music so thick it'll make

your RETINA sore

they say their aint enough

to go around, I'm betting there’s more

when the rhyme enter ya mind

it sworms, then deforms

then again its reborn

taken to another path

a bath, something warmer than holy water

the scraps of scrapes

we got as kids

colonial trace

battered in the butter

with every bite of wheat

theirs rape

theirs faith

tellin us

they're really asking

would you spend

this life pimpin out

your own casket?

every years a new gadget

every year a new distraction

yet

in retrospect,

did this world give you respect

or sponsor neglect

did we protect earth?

or misplace our worth

displace each other

N fail to connect



Consider this rap

an insect - carrying a virus called

“the need to know”



I need to know

where to go when I'm in danger

I dont know where i am safer

i might find bridge

a body of water

my body is water

im prolly the daughter

of the moon the stars the sun the sky


Know Food

[Soda, Soda, Soda, Soda] [adlib]

///

Got ya coffee
Got me tea
Got ya bacco
Got my weed
Got ya dairy
Got my leaves

Why you think you eat
Cheese sugar bread n beef

It's the recipe that matters
The quality spice diversity

[Soda, Soda, Soda, Soda] [adlib]

Do u like it cuz you like it
Or addicted to elements
profitable to produce
N easy to consume
Could this vacuum
Take up our generation
be fed till we're dead
(Something like hamburgers)
I want my meat like my terrorism
In the red
don't matter how much you've read
And to the white vegans
So called kale pioneers
Collard greens cuz you make green
I see how you colonize earth
get off guilty free
Same ones who pushed recycling
But dare not question
the plastic packaging
their habits
Unraveling
Pulled a part
Could you pull
these facts out like cabinets
Reserve it
in a vinegar of memory
Can it be
Canned like beans
Label the track
Ain't no label
But we're at the same table
Let's face all the facts
Industry perverted domestication
Took species of animal and seed
And reduced them genetically engineered monocultures
bugs won't even eat
Not even discrete
I need a receipt
My palette unleashed
My palace verse a patent
The pattern repeats
purpose of this piece
Ain't to judge how you eat
to point out the process
By which we believe
That what is real is what is natural
what is here is
what is meant to be
Simply not the case
We been sold on a lie
So at least
let us ask Y ????
While we still got our teeth


Know Hospitality

Thank you for coming
I'm glad I could give
You something
I'm happy your time
Ain't waisted
I'm clapping for
You
You've made it
Another two months with me
Thru this heaven and hell
Committed to the discipline
But I ain't married to it
Something like
polyamory to my crafts
Can I get you a glass of tea
Or maybe water and fruit
Do you want a straw too
Anything I'll try to do
To comfort your stay
I promise you'll Sway
Thru every bass line
And hit hat
If u the homie
Jam one and get to know me
Or blame me for not doing enough
Cheesy like macaroni
Those phony will pass
Trophies I smash
I'll open it from the middle
Cut it right in half
Show you what I have
To offer to this moment
Of pain n desperation
A silence so loud
The melody seekin meditation
Reaching exclamation marks
Top shelf price
For a voice of that caliber
Do they only hear calibers
Losing track of the days
Could this track be a calendar
Thank you for coming
Ain't much else I can say
Just stick around
For the new
...
And together we'll
Make it thru
Press play
And enter
These interludes

Thank you for coming
I'm glad I could give you something


Know Foundation

Every other day it seems
My focus
Be unloading out the trunk
of nervous intuition
For a purpose
Searchin
Ssertively
don't wanna seem weak
Even to myself
I gotta hold it
Down so
If they stay up
I can skip a dunk
N lay up
...
Sometimes I'd rather ride slow
Than crash
Yet Over stayin safe
I'd rather take a chance

Water my roots
So I can flower
Devour
This hour's my tower
I'm climbing up
Rope thick
U kno the hair like ruppunzle
Bobbin heads to tha music
Stumble
But even when
You celebrate
Could you remain humble?
Could you keep a secret?
I promise you'll be the only one to know
That even when I'm sure
I still doubt the flow
But wait
What's that about
I been thinking back
To all the things I never said
To keep my job
And how this platform
Really freeing me
Giving me
Tunnel and logs
To build a bridge
a circle of light
All of sudden
My hurdles feel light
Float
mind no longer heavy
I can talk to you 1 to 1
Maybe we can find ready

I wanna find ready
gps steady
Ride gently
With a paddle on both sides
through the lungs
this a coal mine
I wanna own mine
For my whole life
In the right mind
At that wrong time
I might find trouble
I might try to build something
Find rubble
