FLEAU - GURU (feat. Kermode Zay, Rob Buck & CDUB336) Lyrics

Man rest in peace to Keith Guru Elam
It's been about fifteen years
I don't know how I just found out
But man, you changed my life
Been an inspiration and positive influence to myself and so many others
What else can I say man, Long Live Gang Starr
I been straight bumpin' Jazzmatazz
On the ride back from class
Whole time didn't even know the legend had passed
Maybe that's just my youthful ignorance
But when I start to think about it, there's something that I find real inspirational
Perhaps too often we say gone but never forgotten
We forget that it's all ashes to ashes, dust to dust
The sun gon' keep risin' as it always has in the mornin
Everything ironclad once they turn into rust
And I must say, there's one thing that I've learned on this Earth
It's about the personal, not how many gon' remember your name
'Cause we all go to the same pond box
And when it locks you only measured in the lives that you changed
How many days did you make
How many smiles did you put on a face
Or did you spend your whole life caught up in a rat race
So if you wanna slow your pace but don't know how
You might need a guru
And if you find yourself askin' me who
I urge you to throw on queue some of that Jazzmatazz two
And enter a New Reality
A higher level of consciousness
Bear witness to lyrical lawlessness
Maybe this don't even matter, in about a century
This'll all be forgotten
Our grandkids' grandkids prolly be out here fightin' over nothing
Like us human beings have always done
But while we're here, do your best to kick back
And enjoy these couple trips 'round the sun
Yeah there's bubbly in my drank
Her hips are rubbin' on my leg
F*ck I don't know what to do
Maybe pursue, but feels like I got the flu
'Cause I'm coughin' up a lung
Is it from smoking too much, is it just the Winter?
Heart is freezin' up from being alone
All my veins and arteries bitter
Yeah she a bird like Twitter (twitter)
Yeah her lips they tasted like apple fritters (fritter)
Been a couple years since we locked our lips together
And now we both fitter (fitter)
And I see you workin' out only feet away from me
Ain't got time for no chitter
Yeah call me a simp for her, but shit she's the prettiest woman I've kissed
And I'm pissed 'cause it's all just bad timing
It's a shame that we weren't synced up
Perfectly, we was meant to be
You had be fiending way harder
Than a quintuple Butterburger cheese from Culver's
That my homie Jojo copped, yeah that shit was f*cked
He ate the whole thing in less than twenty minutes
Sweet princed on the couch, rest in peace to his gut
And I'm sorry for the vegass tangent, let's bring the conversation of her back
All I want back is them six lil' minutes, lips locked in the trees while the sky was black
You my favourite snack like some Kwik Trip ice cream
Got them curves like an F1 racetrack
If you ever want me back, call me up
But for now we slippin' down our separate paths yeah aye
Our separate paths, aye
Our separate paths, aye
Our separate paths, aye yuh
It's a daily revelation I'm obtainin' from these meditations
Won't stay complacent, my minds on cloud nine
Gotta reach high and take it, let's face it
Face to face, my impatience keeps me in the left lane
Speedin' towards my destination
I've got some shit I'm not proud of, no hesitation
To spit that shit on a beat to let you know it's no faking
It's either find a way through or grab the reigns and make it
I've got a life to live, it's time I place that shit into my hands
You can watch me do my dance
It's a lot of you could hardly quality as a novice
Try and top this
Rhyme scheme, flow pattern
Tattered old soul with a chip on the shoulder in a bed full of marigolds
Letting my dreams play out 'til they take hold
Workin' everyday 'til my face made of marble
Etch it in stone, I'm the face of a generation
And I mean that shit
