Every year for Thanksgiving, Skye writes a bit of a rap/poem/speech/humerous diatribe of sorts to share with the crew surrounding the table. The rap is always accompanied by participation by all those around…whether that be to sing the chorus or stomp their feet or clap their hands to keep a rhythm. It’s always funny yet meanigful, and this year was no different. What follows is Skye’s rap, as Shanye and I rap the chorus continuously under his words. ….and don’t forget to read it with a rhythm….
Chorus: Go get it, got it, get it good. Seek your bliss, you got to seek your bliss…
“So I’m coming at you hot with a message; a lesson. It’s going to shout out of my mouth like a smith and wesson.
It’s chosing passion as fashion, with no distractions.
Strip it all away and your down to your health. It’s not about flat screens, what your drive and material wealth.
You got to seek your bliss, seek your bliss. Go get it, got it, get it good. Seek your bliss, you got to seek your bliss.
Love for your friends, your family and yourself. Don’t take it for granted and store it on a shelf.
Life is short ans sweet like your mother. So make a mark and elevate another.
What do you love to do and what is important to you. don’t take it for granted and store it on a shelf. So get out, get up and take care of yourself.
You got to seek your bliss, seek your bliss. go get it, got it, get it good!”
This video goes well with these words…. It’s the season somewhere to seek your bliss….
was going to comment in a rap! great tradition, skye and meg! i rapped and tapped it out with a friend doing the chorus. inspiration and reminder to seek your own bliss instead of someone else’s, finding it and taking it new levels. liked the line about not taking things for granted or putting anything on the shelf. so easily forgotten! hope you play out some more to keep folks straight on what’s important while they’re standing in line in stores for that holiday in december listening to ” attention all xmas shoppers”! maybe a video! fun post. add this skill to so many others.
