Artist: Jedi Mind Tricks Album: The Psycho-Social, Chemical, Biological, And Electro-Magnetic Manipulation of Human Consciousness Song: I Who Have Nothing Typed by: matthewg@fit.edu I, I who have nothing... [Verse One: Ikon] Intersections in real time The unbroken circle in dimensions of the mind The tie that binds The eternal tide that defines The vanity of my insanity in due time Will shine, like the night seas under the moon The haunted corners of familiar rooms Yet I'm consumed We're vanishing into thin air The realization that this shit is my cross to bare So where Did I think I could run away to see The people that decided to leave without asking me But we Decide to wait for happier tomorrows And find someone so they can be distractions from our sorrows But my distractions the books of paper that I've scrawled I'm eloquent in summer breeze and leaves just have fallen I've crawled in a corner hoping all of this will end With the knowledge that love is just another word for revenge I who have nothing but the comfort of my sins I who have nothing but the comfort of my friends [Chorus] I, I who have nothing I, I who have no I, I who have nothing I, I who have no [Verse Two: Ikon] As I decay, demons prey above me like a vulture Ability to endure contradiciton is a high sign of culture Verbal sculptures, self defacing It is not God or lunacy that I am facing But the erasing of the purity and passion of my words The herds of cattle babble-on/Babylon with talk of the absurd But I preferred To walk away from all the feuds To find my life is more confusing than a rubic's cube So I'm subdued In all my words of verbal prods To live alone one must be an animal or a God But it's official All of my pain is clear as crystal The natural side of life has now been seeming artificial But I can hit you And rest assured that I'ma last words I could give a fuck about ya secrets and ya passwords I can pass words with the ability to hurt you Patience is a virtue and knowledge is a commercial I who have nothing but the pain that I refer to I who have nothing but the pain that I refer to [Chorus] [Verse Three: Ikon] Lost among the miracles, I stand alone And I've grown into a being that's sitting on top of throne I've known For many years that I would turn to rust I find a reason for another breath Before my return to dust I become one with science and mathematic and the rising of the sun I'm numb To all of those who blinded cannot see The chastiser of the enemy Perception requires duality Inspect ya soul, the color of coal inside the body I have hardly, come across them who's holy Send them to the Cherubim to control thee Burning of the sun and frigidness of the cold The battle field is new but the war is now old You can never see the merest shadow of a halo Above the head of evil jinn who's deadly like tornado The world has become an aquarium Full of gaping fish with murderous smiles I on the other hand stand on the outside looking in Writing down murderous files I who have nothing but the lack of variation And I who have nothing but chains and suffocation [Chorus] [Pharcyde "Runnin" sample] There comes a time in every man's life when he's gotta handle shit up on his own
