The Ave
Blue Scholars

I be a patient man, waiting for the rain to come downnMy feet touch the ground, but my head’s in the cloudsnI be Prometheus Brown, stealing the fire outta heavennThe setting is several city blocks off the seventy-one stopnI walk about the district, distracted by the decadent madness ofnAll the undergrads and addictsnClub rats, heads, space cadets, pragmaticsnOne of the few places that they coexist on the planetnWhatever happened to the avenue before the summer of 2002nLounging with Coo on 42ndnMy how time flies when we’re waiting for the chariot,nEating vegan sandwiches subtracting our sobrietynPondering society itself, he’s eying me like I ain’t gonna bring it to his healthnHe don’t want it, cuz certainly he knowsnhe’s just another sucker without his fraternity brothers to back him upnCampus parkway, up to 41st, 42nd, 43rd, 45th, and up to 47thnTo the edge of the bubble all the way to(?), sayingnF--- class, get your education on the ave!nCampus parkway, up to 41st, 42nd, 43rd, 45th, and up to 47thnTo the edge of the bubble all the way to (?), sayingnF--- class, get your education on the ave!nI be a patient man, waiting and checking for the soundnof potential break records up the second time aroundnIn fact, we made this track from a sample we jacked,nfrom some vinyl we dug up out of the crates on the avenRats escape the lab infestations in allnThere be cracks on the sidewalk made from the fallnA nazi dreadlock (?) strumming on his broken guitarnSinging Bobby Lanfau (?) outside of the bookstorenI purchased a journal in which the verses I recite, residenI write vividly to capture the vibe,nI’m like hey kid, walk straight, master your highnIf you listen you can hear the eye of the city crynThe sound is often drowned by Hollywood scholarsnIntoxicated so save it for the coffee shop philosophersnThe so-called artists, the poets and the prophetsnScenery is changin’, ain’t nobody can stop itnCampus parkway, up to 41st, 42nd, 43rd, 45th, and up to 47thnTo the edge of the bubble all the way to (?), sayingnF--- class, get your education on the ave!nCampus parkway, up to 41st, 42nd, 43rd, 45th, and up to 47thnTo the edge of the bubble all the way to (?), sayingnF--- class, get your education on the ave!nWalking to the 71, to the 72 downtown…
