It's Over Now

from "Open Bars" (2010) by Manifest

lyrics

i'm backstroking in a world of illusions
where i normally choose to step over the booth
once in a blue moon, so interluding
this institution is sin pollution since the movement and its principles were loosened
all this to say introducing..
open bars receives you wit open arms
when you thought that hope was far, it's so bizarre
it's where the broken are, smoke cigars in slow mo as the backdrop
a sleek grand piano is the mascot, topped with lyrical jackpots
but what it does for you? ask not. just find out.
improve your odds playa with bigger bets like pai gow
this album is a freezing cold welch's grape soda when you're done soldier
a bowl of pho when you're hungover
a jazzy hip-hop fusion intrusion breakin the rumors
it's the matrix wake-up, your make-up remover
you love the rappers that be scratching the surface until their nails come off
when i be hearing that i'm like "what else is on?" i'm going in
you thought i was running my poems thin, and my glow was dim
but you believed in me, the truth i sewed it in
they judge me now and then, assuming who i am, but who are u?
man shouldn't judge another man it'll only ruin you
i told you what my focus was since '06, revealed it twice in both discs
but still your hearts be looking like a closed lid
so open up before your hope is up, i'm spilling bars from a broken cup
i'll say it all before the notebook's shut
