I need to be creative, my wit must be pristine
I need my flow to "come online" upon a certain theme
The themes a cup of coffee, homage, I pay to that
Way back I cut out milk and cream as I was getting fat

Sooner still went sugar, I couldn't justify
The constant dental cavities, the treatment made me cry
My ambrosia is now strong and black, the flavor is sublime
I couldn't give up caffeine, though I gave up beer and wine

Yes I love a stronger flavor, Baristas, they love me
As Kenyan blends are smoother, but command a higher fee
No I couldn't lose my caffeine, you see what I'm construin'?
My life would be just pointless, an apocalyptic ruin

So you see by now, I'm sure my friend, I really am afflicted
Because at this stage of my life I'm coffee-wise addicted
The mornings would be hell for me, the nights a sheer trial
I'd even buy it from a pusher in a shameful wrap or vial

Once I tried decaffeinated and I sampled herbal teas
But I didn't get the hit I loved from either one of these
Yes I truly love my coffee, it's a passion, it's a dream
I love the taste, the kick the smell, I even love the "STEEM!"
