Ballad of A Fading Mumble Rapper

lyrics

and then my mutterings became adultery
diphthongs caged in low fidelity
to study to
speech muddied through

prescriptions unfilled
enteric coat of gild
the press were powder room reviews
flooding after another in twos

I was accessible
beyond reasonable doubt
speaking in my enamored in my clout
jeopardized by the mass amount

had a DJ with front-facing appeal
indentured engineer
a formula with a seal

I spat drugs for white men
shucked and jived
with ample ken

blurred lines with means
as much as a ray-traced end
and the beats, the beats were breaks
that I dared not bend

and all the hammers cock in 4k
my two-way window was a gateway
my man of color mumble
turned pop culture rough and tumble
the qwerty keys mashed in stereo
the bag, the bag, the bag
I nurtured and fumbled

the careerist races music
the taste loses
gains high bias prejudice
recorded to film in-house
while moving—

listen stupid

these are not your friends
this is not the style over the substance you snorted
this life is a consecutive run on
sentence, full of em dashes
with smudged consonants
the whole in my consequence was bottomless
my pocket burned with banknotes
on scenes of corporate scripts

and I said yes
I gave consent
when I shouldn’t have
to my rights,
likeness
the very self cultivated
from my own experience
memories
my own sinews
sweat
my voice…
