Rattle That Cage

I come to
Rattle your cage
Tickle your rage
Gots ma incense sticks & plenty of sage
Don't need no wage
I do this shit for free
Be excused but please don't excuse me
On profane profanity
You call them cursewords of vanity
I call them sentence enhancers
Put the noun to the verb n make them dancers
Be a chancer
Take a risk
Skinny dip n back flip
Reprogram your computer chip
Right n wrong are but perceptions
Being programmed from birth we gotta make exceptions
For those that just don't get it
Those that try but lie cos they always a sweat it
I'm no seer or guru
I drink beer n smokes joints 2 til 2
And far from me to tell anybody how to live or how to be
But I will be me
Bore to ya core
Grind ya face full into the floor
Make ya taste that dust a little more
Until your mind frees n you can see your
Perfect reflection
In everything
In all the world offers n brings
Especially when it shocks n stings
Lessons to embrace
Pay attention don't let em go to waste
Wanting you to see clearer
Always reverting you back to the mirror
Always n in all ways peeling back the veil
Your veils n limescales
The greatest project you'll ever work on is yourself
I Love you baby

About this poem:
The greatest project you’ll ever work on is yourself, point no fingers of blame, three always point back your way, only lessons to garner, lessons to help balance karma, everybody is a teacher, they’re neither friend nor foe, so there’s never any reason to be offended, being offended is a weakness of the ego

Perfect reflection
In everything
In all the world offers n brings
Especially when it shocks n stings
Lessons to embrace
Pay attention don't let em go to waste
Wanting you to see clearer
Always reverting you back to the mirror
Always n in all ways peeling back the veil
Your veils n limescales
The greatest project you'll ever work on is yourself
I Love you baby
