Some part of Some1 describes this book:
"A pocket-sized, written collage cataloging the documented thoughts of what could be the ‘Sub-Conscious Self’; through interpretational perspectives and observations, though
sometimes not wholly aware of itself, from ‘The Artist’ in it’s most raw and organic form (or lack thereof). As the always inevitable and ever-persistent conflict between the ID / EGO
carries on, this book presents itself as both a view into the dialogue between the two, and as the outside observer looking-on from afar. Free of a system, though fully aware of the Cosmos’
organized structure, these jotted-recordings treat it’s words curiously (like a cat); jerking them from their per-assumed societal definitions and provides another way to look at them, or use
them (almost like tools or instruments), on a journey delving through The Mind, towards it’s fated destination, the Realm of the Unconscious.
Good Luck discovering this book." - I S'pose ... more

lyrics

Verse 1:

(Enable Mind)
I'm so, curious to the glorious ways of the rhyme/
as well as my soul's true design/
and I'm not talkin' about my shoes, and how they're tied/
got a winterish grime.. but love like the sky/
very literate equipped with the thoughts from my ride which has been fine /
textured, and a journey that i had to weather/
life, I wrestle, but, I love. but, I don't really need no medals/
for displaying my human traits/
whenever I catch a taste/
of unexpected fate. I let my passion bless the day/
'Cuz, I don't pursue nothin'- unless my heart screams for it/
this way never does a mission go aborted/
from rightin' under my warm lamp. to writin' and recordin'/
i'm never dormant.. love performin' hip hop, and must flourish/
never conformin' to norms that have formed, kid/
just carressin' endorphins- by expressin' emotions/
i hope to heck that it's potent... and thought provokin'/
but- it's my whole soul's devotion/
YO!/

Chorus:

(K9L)
Some people say that they truly got heart/
but when it comes to assembling they aint got all the parts/

Verse 2:

(I S'pose)
I dissect through introspect/
memorize the step-by-step/
see through eyes that I respect/
the former times I yearn to reinvent/
The intellectual/
Non-conceptual/
Prize perceptual/
of society's misdirected fool
Who knew I'd choose to wanna institute a new school/
Do all that I can to represent a Kool example/
Ramble on in my own mental state of mind it feels dismantled/
Half the time I think I'll manage/
Scrape, Scruff, Scavenge/
Raised tough to brandish my own thought rule in pattern/
Taught true by parents who knew how to brew awareness/
Woven like my mother's dread/
Dense like my father's skin/
Sturdy like my brother's chin/
Stubborn like my sister is/
Consciousness inherit, I can do it if I dare it/
My name's Colby...I put the (?) in Life/
C-O-L-B is what my dunnies do call me/
I S'pose I'm alive livin' Psyche/
So me that am I 'N' I myself I do define/
and I myself I do define/

Chorus:

(K9L)
Some people say that they truly got heart/
but when it comes to assembling they aint got all the parts/

Verse 3:

(MNtality)
Once upon a time on a mighty fine day stepped up a nice kid by the name of Dub J/
He was a shorty growing up in the Rap World/
They called him white boy/
He fell in Love with a real women/
Something told him he aint going back again/
Cause people need to see the beauty past the color of skin/
The color of sin only knows White and Black/
He still raps about souls being rainbows/

He became me, then I became a man/
They say every man needs a women/
but on the other hand/
something wasn't right in my life that night/
so I had to change my name and go out with a bang/
I used to scream MDUBJ!!/
until I found MNtality/
I was like, "Dang Yo, Ill rep that any day!"/
My State Mind State/
Now and then/
That's why (mentality) is spelled with the MN/
drop the E y'all/
