All of the Above

Yo yo yo
Right about now your mind is mine and my mind is yours
If you down for the cause that I'm kickin' in effect is effective music
Let it blink at the street like your first slow stick and go
Right about now my mind is mine and my mind is yours, to enjoy the shinin'

I'm inclined to give more than just a piece of my mind at love
See this is all of the above
Yo, right about now, my mind is yours and,
Your mind is yours, for a gain or a loss,
Whether accept or reject, perfect or defect

Turn up or rewind, turn down and eject
The point is, you're free as a bird
I know this because somehow, someway is this shit you heard
And the time and the place where bullshit's preferred

The odds of even opportunity is absurd
But yo, right about now I'm on your dial
Your deck, your straight table, and oh yeah, your mind
Even physically consider me the sweat on your nose
The tone in your voice, the funk in your toes
The chill in your spine, the stoppage of time
As if the matrix was inserted in your chest like you was Optimus Prime

I be the, glint in your eyes and the sight of the blind
And you be the, living reason why I'm writing this rhyme
I be the, dap in your hand that you give to your man
When you open what you open mouth covered by your other hand

Brother its the first time that you heard, second time that you played
Or the third when you finally understand
Right about now I be MC J-Live, although I wear many hats
And several titles, its vital, the recital is recognized,
That hip hop will never be idle, when its right about now

Right about now I hope you recognize that the name of the song
Is not Right About Now, but All of the Above
The soundtrack is courtesy of, DJ Spinna,
So be careful when you enter the realm,

We all real but feelings are so strong
They clouded from the facts if you not on track
And the fact is even being yourself takes practice
When you front too hard, you never get it back

But the, question is, who am I? Who is this?
Is it live, is it real, is it here, is it deep,
Can you summarize with letters
Like (J-B-K-N-Y-D-O-D-D-J-M-C)
Is it, deeper than digital, un-crunchable
With your 0's and 1's,

And never get the whole sum
Is it, residual into where you're coming from?
Smaller than the prodigal son, the old gettin' dumb
Is it full of your breast, of the old worldness?

And gettin' chewed up (on chest?)
Just to relieve the sufferin' or
Tryin' a party till the headlights go off
The heads light up when I go off

Is he tougher than nails, or sharp as a tack
Approximate, or right and exact, Is he pro-dope, or anti-wack
Conscious or slack, representin' yellow, brown, and black
Strong enough to attack, or wise enough to hold back

"Yes"
The answer precisely,
Whether it be hard like Shao Kahn, or soft as Tai Chi,
It's the balance of life, you call it equality
Yins and yangs rivalry slash comradely

Its the speed of thoughts, calculated musically
Celebrated naturally, elevated constantly
Right about now you can bubble in A to Z
'Cause its question and the answer, and the album is me
