a lazy day
got nuthin' better to do
but think about what we had

think about how it could
have been somethin' more
somethin' so damn good

something that could have lasted and it would
if you didn't do that %#@!
that u already done did

playin' hearts like they board games
really drivin me insane
the reason why i bustin' flows from my brain

the reason why i really ain't ok
the reason why i dropped down into that sadness
the same kinda %#@! that makes spit flows from Madlib

my aggression transformed into a verbal demonstration
by means of bustin' flows as a type of mediation
hoppin' my rhymes are heard all across the nation

the sum of feelings and rhymes made orpheus's creation
I began like the cosmos
whereabouts unknown

usin' the mic as a tool
the way that i condone
my actions and feelings

to deal with my dealings
so you can raise your hands to the ceilings
uh uh here we go now

uh uh here we go now

(Chorus)

so you took my heart for the evening
and you through it out just to leave it
the beginning of transformations

thats how i found my way




listen to my rhymes
listen to my ways

hear what I'm on
and what, what i got to say
'cuause its meaningful %#@!

that i try to spit
here my licks my rhymes
i ain't through with it

intelectual hip hop
hip hop you don't stop
hip hop you don't stop

let me bring it from the top

verbal symmetry

is what I bring with me
all the %#@! that i can do
electrocute like Pikachu



i choose my words carefully

some call it diction
my rhymes so unreal
haters call it fiction

people cant stop bumpin' it
a new addiction
always spittin' rhymes

is my prediction
now I ain't Nostradamus
but let me be honest

sometimes i see the future in my lyrical conscience
hot shot baby
maybe not a lady

but i wouldn't hesitate to let her call me maybe
now I like them brown, yellow, puerto rican, or haitian
the name of this song is transformations

so now the next step for all of us
is to remember this name
Orpheus


they say my rhymes make them happy
that other rappers wack
that my sound is feel good
call me prozac

it's fine if that's how i'm planned to be used
but im not a perscription to be abused
thats right uh huh you know what im on
give em trick endings like m. night shymalan
'cause i'm in it to win

thats how its done
'cause I'm undegoin' a transformation

(Chorus)
so you took my heart for the evening

and you through it out just to leave it
the beginning of transformations
thats how i found my way
