AHOY

(album: Love & Anchors - 2014)

Hey, yeah
Ahoy, ahoy
Sailing from my dreams that were destroyed as a boy
They say your ship is only worth the pirates that you employ
So I'm hoping for May, whether my crew would box for me like Floyd
They run a block, to me is void
They're Tupaccing me is void
Now I'm a fire-breathing dragon, for my passion as a coy
I think I've upset Poseidon, lost my diamonds back in Troy
Now my walls are gone, lost my home
Lost my Rome, lost my dome
Lost my girl, life on my own is like a song from Mario
Wand is climbing, fishing with lining
Rhyming, couldn't of had better timing
And my life, in this moment that's so clear
'Cause I could search the world for everything, but the answers start right here
My father asked me why I do it the hard way, the hard way
Just makes for a better story, I say
But fuck 'em, I'm working hard
So when you google this name you'll find nothing except things I've overshadowed
I'm shadow boxing with a puppet, but back to the percussion
Captain Jack just keeps it running like I was forced to walk the plank
Now the ghost in me is coming, haunting you with the message
Name, Khary Thomas Durgans
I say thomas is my slave name, but chains I've averted
Since you figure you figure me out, without a paddle this is my last bout
Fucked with some tribe, I called it quest for equilibrium, balance and rest
Malice and death are right beside me
So many say that I act weird, this is the tale of pirate yellow coat
Even blackbeard would fear

Full sail ahead
AHOY
Full sail ahead
AHOY
Full sail ahead
AHOY (I said you don't know me like that)
Full sail ahead
AHOY
Full sail ahead... Full sail ahead
AHOY
Full sail ahead
AHOY (I said you don't know me like that)
Full sail ahead... Full sail ahead (Ain't no ocean holding me back)
AHOY
Full sail ahead (I said you don't know me like that)
AHOY (Ain't no ocean holding me back)
Full sail ahead
AHOY (I said you don't know me like that)
Full sail ahead... Full sail ahead (Ain't no ocean holding me back)
AHOY
Full sail ahead (I said you don't know me like that)
AHOY (Ain't no ocean holding me back)
Full sail ahead
AHOY

I am so Jack Sparrow, can you feel it?
A lost world of Pharaoh and hieroglyphics
How we living? We instagramming our feelings
I swear that they don't get it, they molly-popping to skrillex
Made a deal with the Devil, God, and a Genie
So if I find Hell and Heaven, I have 3 wishes to free me
I'm Morgan Freeman with semen for bitches that don't believe me
And expensive cars have them dispensing waters from Fiji
Fuck that, you can sink or swim
Seek within
Join my crew or leave with them
Rappers making mixtapes, I call this my greatest swim
People want their voices heard, I call this my greatest phlegm
So anything I spit is nasty, you might need some theraflu
I promise you that I'll be king, so put on your pointless pinky rings
For where we're going, treasure rings
We're setting sail for broken dreams
Setting sail for what's called art
Setting sail for broken hearts
I thought my love was Rosa Park
But lately she's been Rucker Park
Niggas in it, get it?
But when the swim might need some help
I mean I never fail to finish, but I'm far from Michael Phelps
I learned the fate of the world while reading Watchmen
They'll cure the toxic with toxins, so truce when no one's watching
Fuck a hero, fuck a villain
In this world there's only humans
Egyptians built pyramids
But me? I'd rather move them
And if I only make it in my own state, I guess I'll retire
As the ocean state's great, hey

Full sail ahead
AHOY
Full sail ahead
AHOY
Full sail ahead
AHOY (I said you don't know me like that)
Full sail ahead
AHOY
Full sail ahead... Full sail ahead
AHOY
Full sail ahead
AHOY (I said you don't know me like that)
Full sail ahead... Full sail ahead (Ain't no ocean holding me back)
AHOY
Full sail ahead (I said you don't know me like that)
AHOY (Ain't no ocean holding me back)
Full sail ahead
AHOY (I said you don't know me like that)
Full sail ahead (Ain't no ocean holding me back)
AHOY
Full sail ahead (I said you don't know me like that)
AHOY (Ain't no ocean holding me back)
Full sail ahead
AHOY
Full sail ahead

August 25
5: 45 in the morning
The ship is still asleep
I feel strangely alone
My equipment feels... lighter than usual
As I slowly sink, I can embrace the entire work area at a glance
But now I am alone, and at home in the sea
Today, objects have a new dimension
Time is embellished
Wooden planks, anchors, cannons belong to the flying dutchmen
The suction hose is a sea serpent, asleep
Water frees me from gravity
And wings to reality
Here, success and failure become so much alike
Those have little importance in the end
