[Intro: Kristoff Krane & Crowd]
"I was thinking, because Minneapolis is super, super into freestyle more than a lot of other places... If I could just get like... three things to focus on for the freestyle... I just need people who are really secure with themselves to be speaking right now... (Crowd yelling ideas, Descartes is the loudest) Descartes? Oh shit, I need Joe Horton on stage for that theme, mind and body, okay... (someone yells 'weed') Weed? Okay, marijuana, of course.. Last night someone was like 'PUSSY!' I was like 'Yeah man! I always rap about pussy by myself in my car...' (someone says "adhesive") Adhesive?? Okay, marijuana, adhesive, and Descartes, Is Descartes the dude that came up with like, the mind and body separation? Okay, I'm not that good with philosophy... Um, alright, well, here we go......
I wanna, uh, thank you beforehand for being here tonight, Thank you guys!"
[Verse: Kristoff Krane]
Cause you're part of my mind, part of my body, part of my spine
We all stick together, in the weather, like adhesive I don't believe in Jesus
But I believe in the puzzle in the pieces, I believe in the pressure that releases
I believe in all of the pieces of pie that we like to eat but believe this
If we don't get into the mind, then how can we not understand what's defined
Unless we look at our body as part of the mind, and re-align that realign redefined
I'm only here to climb up a vine, I'm only here to understand that time is just an illusion
Part of something there, like the pollutant 'splodin' in the air
And if I can't stick together like that I'll be on the back of the backboard like PLACK!
Like the plaque that's building in my teeth, I can't see it, so I need relief
And that's the only way that I can get it, I can go and I can try to believe in a religion
Or I can sit in a sauna, I can go home and smoke marijuana dead dead to the bone
And that's one way that you can cope with stress, but I hope you know that I'm a broken mess
And any time that I try to escape from it, I feel like my brain is so numb and
This self destruction's the only way that, we can understand that we're all inter-trapped
And when I say all, I really mean me because you're the leaves of the tree I see
And I'm the seed of the tree that was, and I'm the meaning that we were numb
And I was before and so were you and that's the reason that the sky is always blue
On a gray day, I can look at the freight train, I can see all the train tracks
If I look at the past and the way that my brain reacts I can fix that and I can behave jack
Believe that, and you can try to flip a queen, I'm a flippin' king, you know what I mean
We're all so worthy but we forget about it, I mean I try to talk about it but I usually slip and move my mouth
Instead of sitting in silence, looking at a flower and tryin' not to define it
And realize that I can always smell the violet, and I can go home and listen to the violin
In the window I try to jump out of, I see my impulse and I know that I'm about love
I'm about hate, but I admit it so I'm no longer the prison man behind the prison
I miss the bar, lookin' at the stars tryina understand where the fuck that we are
We call it Earth but ever since birth all I knew was the joy and the hurt
Like a boy that was drug through the dirt, and I don't know what you know
But I'm happy to be here and everything is pseudo, but it's so real when we all connect
And realize that all we have to do is bob our neck, and reconnect with someone that's on stage
Tryina express something ever since they were a young age, this is developed now
So I'm happy, to be here, cause no-ones laughing at me be clear, or be cloudy
It doesn't really matter, I'm not here to judge, I'm putting it on the platter
Descartes, marijuana and all adhesive, put it all together and we can be released
It's, the only answer that I know, and if, we let the cancer we can grow, and this
Is the best fucking show that I've played in about six months so lets blow (laughing)
And lets bleed in snow, (laughing continues) let's believe in sunlight watch it grow
Everybody have a real good night, I hope nobody gets in a fight, 'ight?
[End Verse: Eyedea]
Kristoff puts on "Smile" by Eyedea, and walks off the stage
