Things I Thunk

by Kardinal Bloo

on Birds Rap Too (2024)

Aight, I'mma keep this one short
I think I'm gonna stop lyin'
All the convenience it afforded me ain't worth the cloud over my heart
And the smudge over my face in the mirror
I think I'm gonna stop apologizing
Not with words, but
Shrinking in silence in the presence of tension more oppressive than conflict
Is your image of a rose only known from idyllic prose?
If so, hold your nose
Idea's perfect but the real keep you on your toes
I think I'm gonna stop expecting intellect to yield the results work do
Maybe combine the two and really get somewhere
I suppose
The silo of my mind stores facts
The encyclopedic kind
And they're only 'bout half right 'bout half the time
Every night I stare at the ceiling
Tryna pin down the feelings that evade verbalization
Plaintive


I think I might be bullshittin'
I dunno
These are things that I think
These are things that I done thunk that I thought
These are things that I think I thought
Things that I think
Things that I thunk
These are things that I thunk that I thought
Things that I thunk
Things that I
(Cacophony of thoughts)
