TR-i - The Individualist lyrics

rate me

Gather 'round children, I got a tale to tell ya

There was a time when I couldn't bust a rhyme

Had yet to hit my prime

'Cause my mind was such a young mind

And first you got to unwind

The mystery of your soul, it's like a black hole

The gravity is too thick

You got to learn to lighten up a bit

It's such a frightening thing to realize

Every time you close your eyes

You been cut down to size

'Cause you're stuck with yourself

Ain't nobody else to compare yourself to

It's just you

And then you ask yourself, "What's it all about?"

So you try to figure it out

And that's when you'll be tempted to believe foolish things

And deceive yourself by lettin' someone else

Do your thinkin' for you

When they haven't got a clue

But you can't relive the hype, don't ya see?

'Cause I got a special answer meant just for me

Somewhere in my immediate vicinity

And if there's time enough to get it

Then in time I'm gonna get it

'Cause I am the Individualist

Check my references

Wherever you are now you know I been there, done that

Don't need to sling the scat 'cause my resume' is too fat

Change my name to some funky fresh dingbat

Like "the artist formerly known as TR-i"

I got to laugh when they try to figure out what it's all about

And they doubt that I'm so devout

But it's something I can do without

I got to know why I wanna know what I wanna know

Why do I go where the others won't go?

My eye is on the prize that's in disguise

That you can only theorize, but I can utilize

To rise above the lies about reality

'Cause you can't relive the hype don't ya see?

'Cause I got a special answer meant just for me

Somewhere in my immediate vicinity

And if there's time enough to find it

Then in time I'm gonna find it

'Cause I am the Individualist

Here comes the Individualist

Yes I am, the Individualist
