Fox in the Forest

[Fox0r]

(Chortles)

Alright

(Clears throat)

Listen, this is uh
This is just Seattle baby

(Chortles)

You ready?
Yo
I am an autonomous, hip hop anonymous
Psychic sovereign kid not a sidekick with the daddest alias, but still a Big Daddy sad that he lost his kids
They've been raptured
Captured by the courts
I'm divorced
I'm out of sorts
No cohorts or a horse, though I'm Special Ed, so sometimes I'll speak in morse (Mimics robot noises)
Oh course I've got no remorse
Ylvis, I'm the illest
I'm the realist, I-S-T not E-S-T
Because that's not "Wii" it's"We" and I said "We" three times and I meant to do it twice
Nope, just oncе
God damn it
Me? this is E-S-P, in motion, sail that ocean
You see this devotion?
It's trancеndental not accidental
I'm no longer mental
I'm the fox dripping out of your penhole onto this page and this is what I've got to say
This is my life
I want to be great
Desire to express myself my way
Coming out of the forest today in all my nine-tailed glory, listen to my story
1995, a child lost the hero of his life
It's bringing tears tonight
Drove down Filbert Road and rolled into Floral Hills cemetery
Uncle Larry at my right side, I'll forever abide to the truth from the hurt I will not hide
Last place I saw gramps was in a box on the day that I saw a fox behind some rocks on a hill, there he was, looking at me imprinting in my mental imagery seventeen years later I came to understand that that grandpa was my man
(Chortles)
Oh wait, I fucked that up
I meant that fox was my grandpa taking shots at me telling me to write my own story, let go and always be free
To accept glory
To not mourn and be okay
Sure, everything was okay
That book that he gave to me is all he had to say because I communicate by sight and when I pray I go deep and the price of that is steep, because when it happens all I can do is weep
I'm breaking free from sleep
Finding strength in being meek
That last little rhyme, give one little tweak
And I know the tears today aren't from me, they're from you, because you're in heaven showing me exactly what I need to do to reach
All of the dreams that you prayed I'd see, to guide me on the special ride that was your legacy to me
I never read your will, but I know I was there, because I saw it in your writing in the Bible you gave me where you could barely write anymore
Ten days before you died, it was the greatest gift you gave me and I'll thank you for that tonight
I never understood the power contained in that book, but now God's snagged me deeply
I'm a fish on the hook like all those ones I grew up watching you catch
I caught them, too, because I stood once as a proud man inside my own shoes
It's all become one
My ego it's done
I'll no longer walk the race, but run, because this shit's way too fuckin' fun
And Jesus said if I seeked I would find
Well, I found him and now I know you can feel it in this rhyme
And that's the end of the story
And I'm just gonna accept my glory
And that is alright with me, so I'm gonna turn this off and be free-eee-eeee--eeee-e
