Verse 1:
A cursed man is he who really knows what he wants
with 20/20 on his goal and fully knowing the cost
and a wallet lacking vacancy and aimed at the loft
but he keeps stepping back, feeling comfort in loss
like the man who met a woman when his loving was naught
in his spanish class in college and was hitting it off
when they were first paired up, her demeanor was soft
with a edgy sense of humor, she stayed in his thoughts
They started out as friends but then their feelings were wrought
when they were chilling at a club, a single kiss set them off
Then they started dating heavy, seen they're each what they've sought
even their families were happy, let them into their vaults
but when he felt forevers when they argued and fought
he started sleeping with some others to give reason to loss
she felt it slipping and with jealousy came breaking it off
now the lost sits alone and lives with memory's taunts. . . afraid of heaven


what kind of man's afraid of heaven?


Verse 2:
I'll never forget. . . this one night when I was seven
laying in my bed, mind stuck, thinking of heaven
thoughts of time passing, getting older, left me with questions
that don't really have answers, I was getting upset and
thinking if there is a god would he really accept us
with our faults, contradictions washed in catholic confessions
imaginings are cloaked in contention
as the thought of forever arrives with tension and i'm drifting to endings
or never-endings ever happy in the clouds contested
to myself I start to cry cause I don't want to accept it
the beauty of a paradise lessened
when a tear rides that image of eternity with fear at its essence
my brother heard me sobbing laying in the bed next to
mine, and said he didn't have answer fitting with my questions
but sometimes a good dream relieves all of your stresses
so sing the lullabies of radio until you get rested

what kind of man's afraid of heaven?

Outro:
what kind of man's afraid of heaven
and runs in fear from clouds and angels
that sees the sunshine at his doorstep
but turns as if he isn't able
what kind of man is scared of promised
and fear immortal dreams ascent
some people wish to live forever
some people only wish the end

I'm downloading the album right now on I-Tunes. Can't wait to blast it all the way to Waterbury on my way up to recording Devil's Math.

I think you and Nemesis are the only two emcees who have ever used the word "bereft" in a verse. And "synechdoche", that's all you, kid.

This is super-interesting. I really dig how you breakdown the thought process behind "bob ross" since the lyrics are so out there. Great job Sketch! I love the links and the videos.
