Intricate by Cuoy "You-C" Harmon

[Verse 1:]

A wise man once told me, “speak with authority.”

And let your words paint a real picture, of vivid imagery.

Imagine me, sitting on the world in a lazy-boy.

With my feet elevated, kicked back as I spray the world.

Not with bullets, but love that’s understood.

And if you hate me, I wouldn’t curse you with the spirit of the hood.

Instead I’d go about my day, and figure out a new route.

Of getting paid, and maybe, raise a seed, like a new sprout.

Wonderful lifestyle, that’s if you’re living life right.

I’m bright, like street lights in the middle of the night life.

Or maybe like a mixed girl, who’s ass is big as a Wilson.

Looking like a camel or giraffe, with intentions to get some.

Light responses to negative situations.

When I was young I was dumb, only thinking of Playstations.

But life is not a game, as I sit back and watch the news.

Another black youth was killed right after school.

They tell me if I make it to see 21, I’m a blessed man.

I pray to live the longest of lives ever.

I’m not a gangster, so don’t approach me as such.

I’m just a young kid with deep intricate thoughts

[Verse 2:]

What if Hadiya hadn’t ran, would she be breathing.

If Trayvon wasn’t hungry, would he still be leaving.

So these niggas claim 300, and your BDK.

He tried to get away, but they must be maids from the way they sprayed.

A nigga drops your set, and then you grab a gun.

What happened to one-on-one, uses your fists instead of run.

But that’s the hypocrisy of our democracy.

But democracy is a mockery of the way you living life.

Have a family instead of strife.

Now that’s intricate enough.

And I don’t have to smoke a swisher for you to know my responses are blunt.

Tough titty, sucking on mother nature for nourishment.

Live a full life, with money left for your retirement.

Invest in something smarter than the time that your wasting.

I put these words together, with the time that I’m pasting.

Be prepared for the new world syndicate.

Now you tell me, if I was really being intricate.
