Gimme Some More
[Chapelle]
Our keynote speaker is about to come on and I just wanted to say a few words
about him and you all know who he is... Talib Kweli! Please, hold your applause
until the end. We are GLAD to come and hear you speak. We love it! Kweli
doesn't like me to talk about this but one time we were driving through the
Mississippi delta and there was a brotha runnin up the side of the road and he
didn't have any shoes on. He didn't have a shirt on and I started to drive

Camphor
A feeling like camphor rushing through my tubes
A cooling draught, a rare interlude
Drowning depression to admire and trust
Who can watch a man making dust to dust?
One legal dose of environment
The ballad of a playground swing
There's a lonely dog so misunderstood
He's left his chores to become someone's friend
Things are so enchanting
High on life
Then once again the flash of pines
Beck to this breathtaking view
Where the peeks are so high full of encouragement
And the paints of the gods colour code
Things are so enchanting
High on life
Things are where they can't be high on life
So I'm thinking about my favourite dream
An adventure not out of bounds
It dries my eyes to know mother earth hears
I'm invisible to blue hounds
It pleases me to have a mind on the run
When the body is fixed tied in shoes
What expression is left to fulfil the gap
Just a nod will suffice where you are?
Things are so enchanting high on life
