Disclaimer: Heard this song on YouTube by Toshi Kubota ft. Mos Def. Don't ask me the name, I don't read Japanese. Still, the song inspired these words below. I actually freestyled the first verse,I liked it so much I wrote it down and kept writing. This is actually a condensed version of what I wrote, because these are the parts that best flowed together. I may still do some editing to this. And final disclaimer: This is actually more of a performance/ spoken word peice than it is a poem to be read to ones self.Wait no final, final disclaimer: The word Doors is pronounced "Does"

Sometimes you hear a dope beat and it just flows
it gets down deep underneath, beneath your toes
rise violently like a sneeze, and it explodes
that's where it comes from but where does it go...
into the soul, from whence it came and whither it lands
into the soil, replenishing withered lands
and weathered hands
and weakened stands
it's understood
and it understands
in open ears, like open doors
in open hearts, like open homes
in open minds, like open roads
a vagrant, migrating,acclaimating like when in rome
Like a bommerage,it circles back
like a songs refrain, it circles back
like the cards that's played, the deck is stacked
the hands are dealt, and they circle back
till what is said remains as fact
that's where it goes, but where's it from?
the heart of all, the thoughts of some, or less, the words of one
who will express, what's said by none. it's never said and done.
till what's said comes to pass...
and once said, yes it always comes
