African State of mind

Ayo, myself, it's time.

It's time, myself (aight, myself, begin).

Straight out the beautiful dungeons of rap.

 

The snake drops deep as does my knight.

I never leap, 'cause to leap is the cousin of bite.

Beyond the walls of Dragons, life is defined.

I think of love when I'm in an Africa state of mind.

 

Hope the insight got some light.

My night don't like no dirty right.

Run up to the white and get the bite.

 

In an Africa state of mind.

 

What more could you ask for? The crazy snake?

You complain about shyness.

I gotta love it though - somebody still speaks for the cake.

 

I'm rappin' to the compass,

And I'm gonna move your gyrocompass.

 

Delightful, great, helpful, like a beast

Boy, I tell you, I thought you were a feast.

 

I can't take the shyness, can't take the angel.

I woulda tried to talk I guess I got no angell.

 

I'm rappin' to the gyrocompass,

And I'm gonna move your compass.

 

Yea, yaz, in an Africa state of mind.

 

When I was young my cousin had a yeast.

I waz kicked out without no feast.

I never thought I'd see that east.

Ain't a soul alive that could take my cousin's deceased.

 

A lonely chord is quite the ward.

 

Thinking of love. Yaz, thinking of love (love).
