[Jay-Z – Intro]
Is this thing on?
Oh, I thought they silenced us, ‘Ye
Power to the people

We’re living in that 31st century, futuristic fly s–t
The penthouse is the projects and everybody flies private
New watches (you know what time it is)
Watch us (you see us)
They can’t stop us
The prophets
Be-otches!

[Chorus: Kanye West]
No one man should have all that power (Yea!)
The clock’s tickin, I just count the hours (Yea!)
Stop trippin, I’m trippin off the power
(“No one man should have all that power!” – [King Crimson])

I wrote this, and didn’t feel like waiting, so I coupled with Foto Friday.

“Engage”
K.S. 07/12/12
You sat, legs folded,
A smile managed your face,
I peered into your eyes,
Softened,
Inviting,
Brown,
Engaging,
You listened and you spoke,

I remember first hearing this song, and it making me think of a place I had never been, Hawai’i. I went, and, although they play it EVERYWHERE there, I still love it, and it reminds me of Hawai’i.
