  • Lyric Video for Oliver Hart/Eyedea's "How Eye One The Write Too Think" from the album 'How Eye One The Write Too Think'
    It took me awhile to realize that we was on the same page
    Go about reading it out loud in different ways
    I ain't the only person that's traveled through this maze
    Not really sure whether it's me or them that's crazy
    Making a hole in every simple system to rekindle the vision
    That lost its position, that's lost as superstition
    Sitting in a time machine, a bleeding mind dreams
    Of beating my esteem, give the crime scene shining gleam
    I'm no longer a boy scout
    Cause punching myself in the head won't necessarily get that voice out
    That's something no one ever took the time to point out
    But I had to learn to whisper before I could enjoy shoutin'
    Periodically I feel like I've wasted my breath
    And all I've got to show for it is paper stained ink
    But I ain't really trippin' at the end of the day
    Cause life is experience, and that's how Eye One The Write Too Think
    It's How Eye One The Write Too Think ya'll
    It's How Eye One The Write Too Think
    It's How Eye One Write Too Think ya'll
    I think about all the time that I spent trying to find an identity rhyming invents
    So then I could define by the minds penitentiary four corner rooms, a forks in the path
    Use every inch of my inner symmetry to break out the trap essentially distant
    Mentally I'll eventually snap habitually proud dysfunctional prone
    Groomed it new where his thought bloomed, tomb is in musical wounds
    And my shadow grew to be my only tribune
    And it taught me never to abuse a full
    Moon is not suitable sometimes you gotta lose control to gain it
    Kind of truths to hold the rain that falls don't bruise my soul
    Like it used to, I'm used to it
    And now I'm just working on smoothing out the kinks
    The circuitry allows some head room before the break
    So what do you gotta tell me that I don't already know?
    Just shut the fuck up and let me grow
    I learn from my mistakes and eyes widen with each
    Disrupt the place or call it what you want but this is How Eye One The Write Too Think
    It's How Eye One The Write Too Think ya'll
    It's How Eye One The Write Too Think
    It's How Eye One Write Too Think ya'll
    I was scared to death barely slept take a breath prepare to step from where I wept to shed my tears till no nightmares were left
    I had my years but no one cares to see the prayers and sweat
    They just wanna share the nest and earn their percent in turn
    Let it burn till the ashes isolate the cold ground
    On that I stood but on this I stand and hold down
    I used to be the seed of this ghost town but that was then and this is now
    That was then and this is now
    The war between the old brain and the new brain was won
    When the prehistoric forfeited alien strangles reptile and migrates towards inner peace
    The caveman dies quiet the cries riots and bias cease
    No one saved my seat when I decided to rise and slay the beast
    I just shut my eyes and gave my speech
    But I never could have known I would become my own missing link
    And it feels greater than I thought that's How Eye One The Write Too Think
    It's How Eye One The Write Too Think X3

    Still one of the best songs ever made. I seriously can't express just how much his music has impacted and changed my paradigm with every listen.

    You got the right to think. Independently and with free will. Time wasn't linear. "sitting in a time machine, a bleeding mind dreams, of beating my esteem."
