KONFAB
time waits for no man defines space for nomads
a blind race for gold status
KON's stance isn't constance yet consistency remains
time isn't of itself sufficient instrument of change
from cape town to cap city i made tracks like castaway
and stayed down as if gravity strapped ankle with shackle and chain
to remain grounded while escaping sobriety's fallacies
chasing fate farther than society's eye can see sea
with the capacity to lay down the facts like depravity
systematically weighed it down that's the mass of baggage i'm carrying searching for self seems superfluous and selfish
still being yourself is far better than being someone else's
it's not where you're at or where you're from it's where you belong where you record where you perform and beyond
KONFAB had to leave bygones like bye­gone
mind grappling with time travelling
