K Sera Sera
Destiny's Flow
Lyrics
Uhh! Check it out, yo; it's called, uh, well, uh
Introduction and announcement of the song "K Sera Sera."
"K Sera Sera," whatever will be will be
Reference to the phrase "Que Sera Sera" (Whatever will be, will be).
And the track is kinda in there, so lemme bust a li'l
Acknowledgment of the track, preparing to present a rhyme.
A li'l rhyme...
Setting the stage for a lyrical performance.
Check it out on the one, two, three...
Countdown to the start of the performance.
Standin' 5'11", and I'm almost 6 feet
Physical description and age of the speaker.
18 years old, rock a new beat
Details about the speaker's identity, emphasizing consistency.
Got no nickname, stay the cool sane
-Kick the same rhymes, play the same games
-To watch my back, but ain't no vics here
Awareness of potential dangers but none present.
Bring in the new--that tune was last year
Embracing change and leaving the past behind.
In strode the baby brother, comin' from the mind school
Introduction of the speaker's creative process.
Flow from blue Bic, and paper's wide-ruled
-If I had a penny for every note that I played
Contemplating success and financial rewards.
Or if I had a dollar for every bar I create
-I guess that I would reckon, "By golly, I'm gettin' paid"
-Or better yet, "I reckon it's time to be gettin' paid!"
-So I sit and think, "Well, should I pull my Plan 9?"
Leaving decisions to fate, influenced by karma.
I'll leave it up to the powers and the stars
-Since I'm from the cosmos of another planet, see
-I believe my karma will guide me to my destiny
-So I flow, not on the rhymes
Focus on personal thoughts and vibes over traditional rhymes.
But related to my shade of mind, or, rather, vibes
-Que sera sera, what will be will be
Expression of a carefree attitude towards the future.
Whatever's kinda clever, what the future holds for me
-I guess it's just a thought, though my mind is kinda hazy
Acknowledgment of uncertainty while introducing the speaker's name.
My name is Justin, baby
Personal introduction and identity disclosure.
I got my skullcap on, then the flow from my mind starts
Beginning of the creative process, wearing a skullcap.
As I rip for days from the land of the mic arts
Continuation of creative expression from the perspective of a beatnik.
Cream of the crop, a cool, blue beatnik
Acknowledgment of being gifted and preparing to showcase talent.
Blessed with the gift, and now it's time to kick the ill shit
-Love to eat the scallops, and quit with the doo-doo raps
Preferences and lifestyle choices related to food and music.
Stay away from ill crack, listen to the Fatback
-Smooth on a rough track, time to catch a catnap
-If you are my brother, I'll be sure to give you much dap
Emphasis on loyalty and consequences for betrayal.
Ya bound to get your head smacked, if you try to illjack
-Get your kit from Acme, set yourself an ill trap
Reference to mic skills improvement over time.
I used to talk of vickin', would step and finger-lickin'
-But now my mic endeavors have improved over time
-Oh yeah, I'm still the same brother who has got to pickin'
Acknowledgment of personal growth while maintaining core traits.
So listen to the moody groove, piano, and the vibes
Encouragement to listen to the music's mood and elements.
Ahh, and ya don't stop. Yeah, ya know, yeah
Reassurance of continuous creativity and presence.
And we the sure shit, guaranteed to be the ultimate
Confident assertion of being the ultimate in the music scene.
Ya got to keep it on to the break-of-dawn
Encouragement to continue enjoying and dancing to the rhythm.
To the rhythm, y'all, ya don't stop
-And ya don't quit, ya don't stop
Continuous emphasis on maintaining the flow of creativity.
Ya gotta keep on, keep the flow on
-And, baby, ya know you and the rhythm is always on
Final farewell and departure.
And I'm out...
