Heya monks, trying something new which could apply to a lot since we haven’t posted anything yet. So Seth and I work together at a job place on the same team.. every day…
Anyways! We do our best to survive the drudgery that is a day by using our favorite medium to communicate: typed words. Mostly because nobody can actually hear me speak.
Anyways! x2
As fans of words, we’ve become pretty big fans of rap music. So with that, we’ve decided to come up with hopefully interesting topics to debate through mostly means of rhyme while we avoid work.

You talk pain, talk bodied by Jensen
But how can that compare with all this tension?
A room so thick, you can cut with a knife
Physical wounds can’t keep pace with the strife.
Awkwardness, worry, stress, and fear,
All of these feelings are friends so dear.
I say friends, when really, what I mean is –hah-
With friends like these, who needs enemies brah.
Listen, I know, you probably got some lyrics writ,
Gonna wax poetic, how body hurt more than wit,
But let me just leave you, let me leave you with this,
If body’s pain is worse, why do we slit our wrists?
Charles (Luckyfrog)
No pain no gain is what they say
But the only gain I feel is the longer day
This fear I feel as it runs through DNA
That no child I’ll hold to not pass the pay
You may feel loss and your heart may ache
But I feel one of these days my knees will break
Just as your pain extends from your mind to your body
My body won’t allow my mind to feel jolly.
You wake up and feel this weight on your shoulders
But now add that weight when you’re already broken.
Can’t stand to stand how do I enjoy life?
When the pain is too great, you can’t even lift the knife.
Seth (The Brick)
Aight aight, I heard you my fella,
But consider this, sit back why I tell ya.
You talk about weight and pain and a knife,
How your body causes such an unhappy life.
Head, shoulders, knees and fall
Can’t you see you’ll lose it all?
How to stand you sit and ruminate,
Why don’t I continue and illuminate.
Keller, Charles, Wonder, and Hawking,
All had impediments what caused some gawking.
How then so happy when portrayed as broken?
Because the true pains in life often go unspoken.
Can’t even lift a knife you might say,
When the brain’s in pain, no wait will it stay.
Famous phrase goes: mind over matter,
But how’s it go when the mind’s a splatter?
So this is just our first one, please let us know what you think. I’ll be looking to post a new one every Tuesday if possible. I figure, we do this every week anyway, why not see if others are interested?
Thanks!
