This could be the Beginning

July 25, 2020 by Russell Wardlow Leave a Comment

This could be the beginning of something greater
everything else…save it for later
I am riding giveabeats elevator
ain’t no surprise giveabeat elevates ya
my eyes precede the precipitation, my mind climbing degrees of elevation and, I smell the vapors
because saying my words is the greatest congratulations
now-let your hands move wit your dance moves
this is dance grooves
hotter than Cancun
marathon like lampoon
so I’m in prison late at night writing with my lamp on
got my manager outside of Raleigh and we rallying anthems
this a new wave, this a new movement, this a u movement
everything u can’t see, u can’t YouTube it
but log onto the site open your mind and just listen to it
this is reality and emotional confession connecting with poetic music
Way of life
