I finally was able to get this posted after a few technical difficulties and now you get to hear why I was adamant about doing so. I've been a fan of Mr. J. Medeiros when The Procussions made a visit to Toad's Place where I live in CT. Ever since I've been keeping an ear out for these cats. Here's Mr. J with These Hands off "Exclusives" and was cool enough to add his lyrics to it. Track sounds therapeutic to me in a way. Good music. Check it.
I had it all in my hands but couldn’t hold it
I was more then anyone could bare or
Dare to share a home with
Unprepared
I was owned quick
Undeclared as my own skin
Hands of cold brick
Struck till everything I’ve known was spit
And cut from everything I’ve grown too
Thick
Is the air I now breathe
Where will thou feed
If in there I found peace
If in here I found streets
And behind every smile an aisle of sharp teeth
That defiles all we say admire and might think
Desire
The well of fire the dire and I drink
The miles I run a day
The mire of my sleep
Remind me summer day of the time my eyes peeked
On a love that was worth mine
Over the earths crimes
When my first cry searched for its worth
Ones birth reversed
And saw my mother for the first time....
What crew is really fucking with The Money Making Jam Boys (S.T.S., Dice Raw, Black Thought, Truck North, P.O.R.N.) lyrically? I'll wait. Ha! This mixtape is serious.
