I'm Just Walking with Words

from Impossible Bottle Service by Sankofa

/
  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    This CD is beautiful. Do you know why? It's because Shane Joines made some crazy artwork and then Chef Mike whipped it up in the graphic wizard kitchen and came up with the magicalness that is this CD. There are 50 CDs like this in the world, a handful have already gone to collaborators and folks on my mailing list who swooped it early, SO YOU'LL HAVE TO CLICK BELOW TO SEE HOW MANY ARE ACTUALLY AVAILABLE. I like being small, so you won't find me doing a repress. You want one? Get it! Got it? Good.

about

Anyone else remember Jason Kidd's draft night Q&A?

Yes, that is a Lord Finesse reference to kick off verse two.

That Boris Diaw anecdote is a classic.

I love when I'm feeling a song so much that ad libs between the verses become the hooks.

Shoutout to Zilla Rocca, another heavyweight champ of basketball references.

lyrics

Jason Kidd quotes on beats make the cipher complete
Turning the franchise around 360 degrees
Draft night back in the day when all the suits were extra huge
Peace of mind, the rest to you, connect the neck to groove
The more we do, the less to prove but effort remains
Baptism by fire, doubters left in the flames
Robert Horry dudes throwing in the towels forgotten
All rememberences ever did was how it’s awesome
I’m Boris Diaw sipping cappuccino, what’s the flyness?
Jumping on the track in flip flops, and touch the highest
Grab my cup and saucer, saunter off like nothing even happened
Exclamation points and asterisks keep the caption
Blank stares until the cases are caught
Then they want to step to this like I’m made for the job
No handrail guidance provided to reach the summit
Chumzilla, man you fed me plenty beats, go head and keep them coming

I bless the mic smooth steady with the fly terms
I wanted fades half moons and long sideburns
But nowadays my hairstyle is just a negative space
Dig find listen sample chop repeat cap in the place
Arranging letters abra cadabra the magical way
Find the beats that Chum sent me then I’m mapping the day
I’m at it, the stage where what inspires me is my life
So I’m steady living, paying attention to what I write
Rehabbing my achilles soon I’m running it by
Do my exercises, no more tendinitis, alright
I’m at the stage where I got to take care of myself
Snapped the left achilles, right don’t want to tear it as well
But I’m stalling on it, cause I got the urge to write again
I’m Pookie with the beat calling me, deny defend
Supplying gems and the placement is key
Kicking flavor so you know I’m major lacing this beat, indeed
