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:

(MNtality)
It's no joke/
I gotta quit this smoke for a long while/
'cause it makes me act just like a dope/
I missed a gig/
A pretty damn big opportunity/
Pretty foolish of me to oversleep/
Not only that/
But I was too baked the night before/
To even realize that I'm a man with duties and chores/
Unreliable/
that'll be my rep if I keep being irresponsible and forget/
To mark every step in my booklet/
I'm not viable/
won't survive another day among the best/
That's why the clouds in my chest and brain need a rest/
I need to focus my head on what's next yo/
Now is of the essence/
I'm gifted with the presence of my mentors and legends/
I have the utmost respect, but so much more could be given/
So it's all on me/
It's all on me/
It's all on me to be the bigger man and change it for myself/
and clean my act up off the ground so I can live up on the shelf/
I aint apologizing, this aint no sorry song/
This is a promise to the good people that I've done wrong/
I solemnly swear, from this day, moment and after/
Imma be a whole new different type of Poet/Actor/Rapper/
You can trust me if you need a spot filled/
I'm buying a new calendar so I don't get my name killed/

Chorus:

(Paper Airplane Society Of America)
It's a shame that I'm always Do or Die/
God knows I'm pretty shitty but he likes to watch me try/
One day soon I will get up off my ass/
Getting out of this rut so tired of coming last/
All this time talking too much shit/ yeah
I know better than that
I know better than that
I know better than that
I know better than that
I know better than that
I know better than that
