I Got Ms. Crocker Beat - Jason Stricker

I Got Ms. Crocker Beat.

First,
You need a heart, a heart with feeling.
And keep it open to help with the healing.
You’ll soon find out we can show emotion.
It’s the weaker of us that tend to hold it in.
And then you have to have a way with words.
How else could you tell someone what they’re worth?
Let your feelings know that these weapons could hurt.
After we’ve cooked the raw feelings, the pot must be stirred.

Now,
Comes the pain, the pain of truth.
How you handle it is up to you.
You’ll soon find out that it hurts like an oven burn.
Tough to swallow, another lesson learned.
Next you need one of your lonely head rhythms.
How else would you move if the music stopped spinnin’?
Let your rhythm in words combine to make some music.
To make your song, take your words and rhythms, fuse it.

At last,
You need an inspiration beautiful.
It’s your song alone, you can choose to be spiritual.
Set your oven for five hundred degrees,
And it’s your best work if it doesn’t freeze.
