Pharaohs Freestyle

from Obelisk by Dying Pharaohs

lyrics

had to wear a uniform
at work it was the norm
went through the thunderstorm
all the people were misinformed

didn’t want to conform
spit 'em out if they’re lukewarm
drove through the snowstorm
stayed inside where it’s warm

in college I ditched the dorm
now I’m on a platform
all my raps are freeform
with a band I perform

my faith was restored
on a Teac I tape record
Barry White loves harpsichord
diving off the diving board

played chess on a chessboard
in the ocean I surfboard
bought a new keyboard
A Korg I adored

The lion just roared
Now I’m on the Billboard charts
I ride a skateboard
Down the hill when I’m bored

The territory was unexplored
I paid the slumlord
For last months rent
now I’m good
mixing on a sound board

on guitar i play a chord
when I felt ignored
i got hungry so i went to the smorgasbord

put on my boxing gloves
there is a lack of love
I saw two turtledoves
none of the above

at In-N-Out I got fast food
because I was in the mood
Hey Jude, I conclude
there was a Family Fued

had to get interviewed
at a high altitude
latitude and longitude
my hair I shampooed

I have no tattoos
shish kabobs I barbecued
had to feed the multitudes
spent time in solitude
