A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

When the clock’s in my hand..

Your time is over, homie!

I don’t leave the block without my clock!
Is it because I’m standing with yo’ bitch?
Or got all these stones on my wrists?
Don’t think your leavin’ here with this,
I don’t leave the block, without my clock!

The actual meaning of this hand tattoo on IAM: zombea is, wait for it..

I’ve got too much time on my hands!

    Woo! =] Actually, the time on it is wrong. It was supposed to be set to 11:11. But it wasn’t on the sketch and neither of us noticed until it was too late. Oh well, makes for a funny story I guess?
