Opening The Door

So i guess ive been lieing to myself for awhile

living out of spite for quite some time

forgetting what it means to truly smile

forgetting how to align

my fate with what i really want to be in this life.

Turned into an asshole at times

so pissed off cuz ive been dealing with the legal

issues that come from being just another one

on the list of the kids who turned to drugs to

ease the tension of having all these unanswered questions.

They'll never get it though,

these drugs are what helped me grow

into a spiritual being

without em i may have never really seen

what it means to be a human being.

I guess i see the perspective,

with all the drama queens

who cant accept what

the drugs are doing

 

Opening the door the realm of the spiritual

without finding my true self i might of never been this lyrical

this able to produce rhythms equivalent to self incisions

when my rhymes collide with my emotions they free me from all notion

of anger or doubt its an outlet n i use it to infuse

my soul with this game of life n do it right.

I was raised so wrong felt at times like i would never have a chance

to dance in the rain my soul was filled with so much pain

how could i possibly gain from this situation

all these fucked up sensations caused by temptations

to escape what looked like my fate.

 

Now i take all of the hate that was created and spin the dial

turn the tables like ive always been able to write my own fable

re deal my own cards n deal em fair clean the air inside

thats been so heated for so long all along all ive wanted to do is play along

that role was stolen from me the moment i was told i was worthless

cuz i wont be told how bold i can really be.

Ill turn myself into the best emcee

ice cube told me i could do this in gansta rap

school was easy, im lyrical.

Never truly believed when i was young, now im spiritual.

These illegal substances showed me the door,

i never gave a crap despite the crap that was giving

now i write cuz im about to get to living

sticking, to my true purpose.

It is said in the sands of time that im the next best

now my soul aligns, joining all of the rest

that felt somewhat like i did,

all the ones,

who never gave a shit

when shit was all that was giving.

Back to the topic

these laws on the green are nonsense

if only everyone understood the concepts

i smoke to get elated and have revelations

they see me doing it and call me a traitor to this nation

i guess knowledge is power so power decides to hide it

fuck it im riding to the top

call me an enemy of the state if ya want

i know who i am

i dont need to flaunt.

I aint no traitor to this nation

they banned marijuana so call me the filter

of elations

get baked n then take this flow to newer levels

cant ban my words so in turn they never stop me from burning

weed opened the door i stepped through it

put my shoes back on my feet

theyve been lost for awhile ive been helping myself meet

truth at its finest the line that was stole i grabbed back

fuck the slack on top of my grind

i stole back my mind n with it warped through time

to the present day where i take

all of the facts from the past

The ambiguity of the future

about ready to do something

make a change to these entrapment ways.

Time to get down to this point

im gonna spray and spray put out my name

then start a chain,

reaction,

a petition to allow us to spark a joint.

My plan to anoint the movement of love.

Swear itll work all it takes is all learning to trust

In all others who cares to listen

time to fill what is missing in this culture

Got the mind and the body where's the spirit

are we human beings or just a bunch of vultures.

What was outlawed needs to come back

marijuana is a natural plant

make a change y'all might tell me i can't

well i say we all can

away with the doubt its time to kick the can

n kick the ban on what could help us achieve

one love on earth

time to believe.

Dont abuse these drugs just use these drugs to come fly with me.

Fuck the bullshit come back to the moment

its mine to take so i decide to own it

welcome to my zone the zone of TJones

dont just cruise down the street im running rampant

its a license test and im hitting all the cones with my words

nah they aint meant to hurt actually nourish the real

punish the fake if you a snake you've already been lost in this lake

of pure essence where only the kings will comprehend what im saying

this is how i drop all the peasants.

Hahaha, i got love for all even the ones confused in their head

im really just messing its okay if you've been lost i'll slow it down to save

well i guess the first step is ya gotta be brave this aint meant for the weak

gotta be strong enough to hear when i spit words filled with fire

if you got fear they will knock you off your feet

if you a real these verbs will take ya higher.

These verbs are like herbs turn it up n get fly.
