Sample lyrics <br />What is spoken word? <br />Spoken Word is that pain, running through my veins and circumnavigating through by brain then transmitting, spitting out of my mouth <br />Spoken word is that MC master of ceremonies, who knows how to rock the house. <br />That spoken word in the beginning that made every living thing <br />Emanating from every creature, from lions roaring to the birds that sing <br />Cause every creature with sense will either allow it self to vent or automatically give praise to the king. <br />Spoken word is that child that’s got it’s own thing. <br />Those lil girls jumping double dutch that talk with their necks, got their hands on they hips, eyes rolling and fingers snapping <br />Now That’s spoken word! <br />Spoken words got rhythm and cadence, <br />sounds wack coming from a nerd <br />Some times the rhymes come with African drums <br />And Some times, you hear it from the winos and bums, sitting on milk crates <br />But they say some sly ish like <br />“every day above ground is a blessed day so take it one day at a time my brother, and by the way, you got a dollar so I could get me a little something to eat? <br />And you remember the time when you were down and weak <br /> So you hit him with some non verbal communication in the form of cash and watch him happily run off to the store in a dash, now that’s spoken word <br />Spoken word is a fusion of the blues, hip hop R&B and some times comedy <br />The poet is a healer, medicine man, high priestess, witch doctor and counselor <br />Giving the listener divine therapy <br />Spoken word is Africans and Native Americans Chanting <br />Babies moma’s ranting, Rastafarians reasoning <br />Backwoods preachers preaching <br />! <br /><br />Download on kamalimani.bandcamp.com/track/what-is-spoken-word
