Still Taking Mystic Voyages (Part Nine)

 Even on this Terrible  / Terrific Tuesday where things can go either way you can catch us taking mystic voyages  / journeys!

Claiming the terrific outcome when we're on the run like Paul McCartney's band Wings as we work our way through these...

...smoke and mirrors; the smoke cleared now we're dipping through! today? like Roy Ayers appreciation is shown for sunshine.

It really helped these players! I told it I'm alive at your touch and it eased my mind..

..during this ongoing grind; while out here taking mystic voyages I noticed some will call it life.

Oh! I'm not unkind! gratitude is shown it's a blessing to be here even during the toil and strife.

But the healing process is underway, the pain cut like a knife but we kept it moving even though we had to sacrifice!

Plus shady dealing led to the ongoing madness from Trump deportations to these tariffs it ain't nothing nice!

Time? it kept on slipping  / slipping into the future per Steve Miller plus the clockmaker's widow continued the tradition.

Time? it was being manipulated by those that hated; now who's losing / winning?

No always and forever like the Heatwave jam from back in the day per Throwback Thursday  / Flashback Friday; nothing was everlasting.

The world weary tried to stand in time / stand on business but the system kept crashing.

I Still Felt The Pressure (Part Nine)

 Check us out as we come through with this HumpDay Extravaganza edition, but the science dropped is appropriate for any time frame!

Getting over the hump is the business but your homie still felt the pressure, trying to repel the apparatus and it's mind games!

Others felt the pressure, blind in these games? maybe even unkind in these games, not playing fair; damn!  was that smoke enhanced by mirrors from that distant fire toxic?

Similar to Biolab in Conyers so how will we respond to this? we approached in a haz-mat suit, greeted by one with blazing eyes wearing a weird locket.

A greedy corporate official or a capitalist trying to capitalize, check the greedflation! no need to study rocket science; they're a suspect.

Down with the new type gangsters in collaboration with oligarchs and other corrupt ones, structures? charred, plus Trump's  Project 2025 is quoted so what else can we expect?

Don't expect any respect, mass deportations on the way with the Gaza Strip and the West Bank becoming suburbs of Tel Aviv?

Brotha O even felt the pressure here in Atlanta he's not trying to get stuck or caught up he's still trying to achieve!

Brotha O even felt the pressure, naysayers claim this endeavor is not worth a wooden nickel or it's useless as smoke.

Others said it's all love, maybe even Always and Forever like Heatwave, they said ain't a damn thing funny / it's no joke.

They said it's all love  but we still felt the pressure from life's storms especially when an arousing wind blew in smoke from a distant fire.

Warned about the Pressure from Sounds of Blackness but we're back with this trying to get over the hump! some say maybe this is worth something; hope it'll inspire.

Peace Is Disturbed, It Wouldn't Be Still!! (Part Four)

 Back in the day Brotha O had a mix called No Justice No Peace, well if there was peace it was disturbed by the devil and his advocates!

Peace wouldn't be still per the Reverend James Cleveland's request, the apparatus will introduce more stress but we're back with this!

Brotha O also has a mix called Diplomatic Immunity at the O-Dog Podcast whereas the Lord will protect us per no weapons formed against us would prosper mentioned in the Book of Isaiah! that's the deal, even so called visionaries said there's nothing new under the sun.

They were down with the naysayers,  said peace won't be still even we dipped back to the community, our remote outpost out off of I-20 in Atlanta /  our comfort zone plus they said it doesn't matter where you're from.

Once again it's on! we say prayers but so called pundits and experts said we're all eligible to feel karma's wrath! like victims of Hawaii  wildfires soon left devastated!

Once again it's on! they even said the pain is even fungible from episode to episode, present or belated!

Peace is disturbed it wouldn't be still, this Sunday morning is a good time to ask  are those modes related to God's will  /  fate or Heatwave mind blowing decision?

Appetites were curbed as we backed away from the buffet, we didn't like how things were going down  / how we were living!

The scene is observed now we're ready to roll we're on our way, Sunday Jazz is dropped plus is a skill activated when I write this poetry?

Like Alexa Skills Set? I don't know about that; scattered thoughts are collected after I paid a visit to my thought museum.

Damn! peace is disturbed it won't be still! I left the door open, my dreams escape! damn! those jokers?  they know the real me!

Damn! once again it's on, now more sounds are dropped and more poems are written based on their wistful observations!

Critical Stages / In The Meantime Or Between Time PT. 2

 

On this so called Terrible  / Terrific Tuesday where things can go either way I'm chilling out, just enjoying the moment of solitude. 

Caught up in a moment of time per critical stages of development playing it like Simon and Garfunkel with the sounds of silence, now check the attitude!

Enjoying peace within, no justice or peace externally per dealing with these earthlings / heathens  so who's working with me?  feeling the soulful depths?

Please! in the meantime and between time I see how these jokers are trying to work things; the eloquence of sinners? I wasn't impressed. 

At the end of the day they want to see us stressed out, feeling the pressure during these critical stages!

In the meantime and between time? we're chilling out at the moment but soon we'll be ready to move forward, turning pages. 

 

In  the meantime and between time? my mind engages in this and that task, you can say we're working it all out!

 

Chilling out so rage is not a factor, or else it'll be like the frontlines in Bakhmut  Ukraine like the group called Wagner trying to wreak havoc, going all out! 

Enjoying  this Tuesday morning sunrise, after making Heatwave mind blowing decisions last night amongst moonlight reflections. 

 

Earlier? our demons were screaming / buking / scorning amongst debating circumstances, being built or torn down / disrespected?

 

Bright lights are beaming welcoming us to this last day of February 2023 but we're still in Pisces Season!! enjoying the pleasant vibes,  we appreciate them. 

 

Energized during these critical stages, soon turning pages /  soon reaching epic heights, in the meantime and between time working towards fulfillment / achievement!

At The End Of The Day? We’re Just Trying To Maintain (Part Ten)

 As I mentioned before, life comes at you fast! it’ll blow in like Hurricane Ian or other tropical storms brewing in the Atlanta Ocean. 

Russel Honore' mentioned we need to hold the damn line, in more ways than one! message approved by Brotha O, per broadcasting live and direct from our remote outpost out off of I-20 in Atlanta; your dude had a notion!

At the end of the day? your dude is just trying to maintain but naysayers try to start a commotion like Trump insurrectionists bum rushing the Capitol; that’s where they lost me! ruffles  from the rift of the friendship?

It’s like high tides on the ocean or even winds of change blowing; it’s rough out here, even Hunger Games Peacekeepers enforce policies from the Capitol! many are affected by life’s ebb and flow. At the end of the day? we’re just trying to maintain! reconciliation? is there any glimmer of hope? per the way some of these people creep / roll I doubt it. On this Thankful Thursday where it’s a blessing to be here? trepidation is felt instead, so now minds are blown.

They’re making mind blowing decisions like Heatwave per the Throwback Thursday reference! y’all should know what the deal is, Let The Healing Process Begin!! everybody is going through something!

At the end of the day? we’re all just trying to maintain or just stay ahead in the game but there’s always something!

Check the Throwback Thursday, I just dropped in to see what condition my condition my was in per Kenny Rogers and the First Edition! I am the shadow of Brotha O, so pardon me.

At the end of the day? I’m just trying to maintain! I checked to see if he was still alive and.. ..through fog and mist influenced frosted glass / smoke and mirrors / illusions? damn! it sure was hard to see! He’s usually just a lonely soul anyway; sword of truth illuminations made him that way! some will understand..

The Reflex Gilles Peterson BBC6 All Unreleased Mix

Digital Crate Digging Continues check us out as we handle this Throwback Thursday business..

The moves made are retro futuristic but based in the present, knowing what the deal is! 

Studying the history so the future is no mystery and so history won’t repeat itself but sometimes it does in other forms and fashions. 

It’s no mystery as the apparatus will clock the status; police monitor the thoughts and fashions..

Sonic Assaults are unleashed as we keep clashing with so called powers that be!

At the moment listening to The Reflex on Gilles Peterson’s BBC show going for what he knows! Check the playlist and the mix as he gets funky!

Check it out, this is the Music Monday venue as we continue to rock you!! we're just out here going for what we're knowing...

We're keeping it funky plus we're dropping knowledge, it's the Real Deal Holyfield nothing fake like Scott Atlas concerning the coronavirus, rebuked by CDC Director Robert Redfield? 

Dropping knowledge like the New York Times dropping info about Trump's taxes; just facts kid when we out here in the field!!

We're building this up, not quitting / stopping / yielding up in this piece!! beats bump!! we're listening to this classic from the Wilder brothers aka Heatwave called  Boogie Nights...

This is the Reflex Revision, dropping that funk is how he's living!! it's how we're living also, dropping this funk and these insights!!

Heatwave - "The Star Of A Story" (DJ Spivey's 4am Edit)

Digital Crate Digging Continues on a Flashback Friday, might as well say it's a Fabulous Friday also..

Counting our blessings as society keeps stressing; fighting back by dropping this good word, good music will play also...

..y'all should know how it go by now!! stressing us from Louisville to Minneapolis; peep game; "y'all know what the haps is" 

..y'all should know how it go by now!! stressed in this midst of the coronavirus pandemic? for some living life is hazardous!!

...plus naysayers claim this is hazardous material but what we have is spiritual; not hapless in the midst of the ongoing madness..

These players are chilling out in the lab!! checking out  Heatwave's   "The Star Of A Story" (DJ Spivey's 4am Edit) it's some soul music to house music business!!

This Is How We're Living / This Is What We're Giving

It's going down!! like blasts and shootouts at Starbucks in Jakarta, some of these jokers will misbehave.. 

It's going down!!  jokers are shooting it up down here in Dekalb County Georgia,  then they try to dip in fast trucks!! it's not all love, no always and forever like Heatwave..........

Always and forever like Heatwave?  that's a player's anthem,  they'll say its all love!! some still carry torches.

A polar vortex is present but it's hotter than July weather like Stevie Wonder talked about; the sun / atmosphere  scorches.

The  sport is complex; a plotter / shemer either threw Molotov Cocktails on porches, blew themselves up like suicide bombers in Instabul  or shot up the bus stop on Bouldercrest Road in Dekalb County during drivebys.

The sport is complex, I realize  I'm not a dreamer!! these days? a brotha tells the story!! fluid with it like water found on Mars!!  the Mothership?  I arrive by.

Coping strategies fail me? Not hardly!! I survive by praying... Lord Have Mercy!!!

That's the battle cry borrowed from old dude back in Louisville; who else will work with me?

That's a damn lie!! that's what old dude said back in Louisville when he dropped knowledge per Earth Wind and Fire That's The Way of The World; he let us know the real deal..

Oh yes!! it was the Real Deal Holyfield!! it was beneficial when we tried to build, now I try to keep the tradition going by letting you know the deal..

Whatcha knowing? we didn't build with crooks like CitiBank and Goldman Sachs like Ted Cruz did!! we're unbought and unbossed like Hosea Williams.. 

Whatcha knowing? I didn't yield for temptation this veteran in the game will pull rank with the good word and funky tracks, that's how we're living!!

I Heard What Was Said; They Had The Story Twisted PT.2

So what's up?  damn!! I heard what was said;  I can see jokers have the story twisted. 

So what's up?  damn!!  some roll up on the hostile territory like Russia in Ukraine; now like just passed Labor Day family reunions the drama is revisited   

So what's up mane? this brotha has the gist of it;  I was wise to the whole set up.

 I tore up the list of it or them;  what?  the demands!!  oh they had me knocked down but I get up!! 

It's going down!!  I can't let up!!  check out this next level business. 

It's going down!!  I'm ready to check out or cash out on some making moves / escape route type of business!!  some might be able to feel this.

Signs and signals are interpreted; cosmic / karma messengers moved to and fro; we checked the debatable circumstances!! were we being built or torn? it can go any way;  so how will we work it?

It'll blow up like Ferguson did!! minds are blown per mind blowing decisions like Heatwave;  some will misbehave!!  messing around with ISIS types?  you'll get beheaded. 

Glamour shots were taken with  John McCain and ISIS types;  meanwhile O-Dizzle ignored the hypes!!  he's a beat slave!!  blue collar style work is put in. 

Just trying to maintain;  I wasn't pimping or raping like Ceelo Green or these other ATLiens. 

Just trying to maintain; I was observing the scene!! soon I'll be ready to roll after aliens told me how the funk should go...

They didn't have the story twisted they were real with it!! others will have you in limbo like Obama concerning immigration...check the situation; the system is dysfunctional...
