    Head In The Clouds (Feat. Bruklor)

    Head In The Clouds


    I walk into the examination centre, I’m late. Naturally, the
    congregation look up at me. I don’t look to them, I walk
    straight to my seat; solemnly, quietly. The examiner gives
    me the paper, and the answer book, and we begin.


    ***

    Staring straight at the paper; my attention tapers, my mind’s blank
    That’s when my heart sank; there’s a weakness in my shanks –
    The cogs and cranks in my head, grinding, this oblivion, is arcane
    Feeling like everything is waning; I flutter away, like an archangel
    I could not bare, the glare of the teacher’s eyes,
    Bearing down on me – before me, my ugly spirit has been baptized
    I feel I’m drifting on clouds, from whence does this feeling arise?
    Surmise what you will, sorority played not a part in my demise
    I feel I’m the kind to get my head stuck, in stranger skies
    Blankness is the music my mind replays, and reprises
    I punish myself mentally, because I need to be chastised,
    World-weariness is the patent force, of nature’s whim
    I’ve got to nurture myself, into consciousness, like now or later
    Come back to reality! My parents; what will I say to them?
    Once I'd sat myself, in that chair ..
    .. It’s as if my brain cell’s have been denatured
    But all I really need to do, is set this pen to this piece of paper


    I wander aimlessly inward, as the clock ticks down...



    Walk onto campus, cocky and arrogant.
    Apparent failure. Pants full of balls,
    backpack full of music and beer.


    Indecision to exactly which division this even is?
    Parallax of attitude. Guess I should have listened
    Studying would possibly be a wise investment
    Instead of drinking at that bloody delicatessen
    A smart idea would have been to pay attention
    And not buy rounds for those two blessed twins
    Known for being drunk on the campus ground
    Nicknamed the regular Delta-Booze-Hound
    Everyone I know I’ve at least felt up
    Turning into your friendly neighborhood slut
    Haven’t held a stick of graphite for a month
    Looking at a piece of paper illuminates rust
    And as more collects, here brink’s collapse
    Only building is a memory of drinking contacts
    I’m drunk, so fuck it, I’ll finish this paper…
    … Much, much later.

    Lol.. yeah.

    I put your verse on left alignment, so that people would notice it, and figure out that it was you, since your name was in the title too. I guess nobody was paying attention though, huh?

    Damn do I no relate to dat shit, Its like starin at a mirror of words. Both droped sick, Jekyll was a lil better in the overall vocab and language use but Bruklor had some good lines, kinda felt he was the more hung over of the two. Nice drop, keep doin ya thing both of you.

    Jekyll that was a nice piece. the flow was pretty good and it was easy to follow. Great job on the vocabulary. It looks like you put a lot of time and work in to this piece. The structure was pretty good too. My only suggestion is that yo make it just a bit shorter since i dont think many people would want to spend a lot of time reading just one thread. But overall it was an awesome job. I'd give you a 9.5/10. Keep up the good work and have a nice day.

    I'm really not in it for the attention, so it's cool.


    But, I do love the comment about being hungover, by Colby Cain... Well Cobly, as this was written by me, it was most likely written while drunk or hungover. I also didn't want to go with the same approach as Jek for the verse, so, I did another side of Uni/College.

    Don't ask us to vote on battles. I, personally, don't give a shit about them, I doubt Bruk' does either.

    I'll return feed on Open Mics.

    This is a nice mix of not being on the same earthly planes (If you wanna call it that)..I like how you described your day dreaming Dan...that's always the way in exams....to fall into a world of nothingness and forget the damn paper LOL..I'm always doing it. Nice writing dude, as always, very neat.

    And Jamie....so this is where your verse about drunkeness appears...haha. I know your verse was not that serious but it kind of sums you up....naw mean

    Nice collab.
