Day In, Day Out
03:53
|

Trapped like a rat between the muenster and the maze
And the ear on your back hears the groan of the grave
Like a mule approaching sticks dipped in orange shades of wisdom
But I’ve eaten too many carrots to be ticked by faulty vision
Blame the system, blame a Christian, blame every faceless -ism
But don’t let that looking glass fall before the rigid digit
Listen, step on in through the wretched omelette barrier byproducts
None of us clean, most of us washed up
Can’t wait to stick my fork amidst the petty pasta
Spit and make your noodle wet, poodlesque cabachkas
Ariella, I hope you heard that one
My tracks host more antics than Scranton
These grassroots grasp downward from inside the seed package
And I never roll alone like Rs in Spanish
Hard to manage, my alter egos fall near the tree though
Can’t decide which obvious green joke to make, no Cee-Lo
And the beat goes on, like life, like how you carry
After checking keep calm of your to-do list, necessary
Imperative, urgent, this is very disturbing
Where are these herp derp entertainers awkwardly blurting words from
Well it’s something to learn from like history, I’ll be snickering
Satisfied while y’all flop around in a bucket after I struck it
These words are worth a thousand pictures, more than your video
Really though, I been left in the hall, no Arsenio
Forget it yo, I’m trying to prove the ghost of Eyedea wrong
I’m thankful for the roof I may refuse to fiddle on
Skill beyond my line of vision, I’m sand you shall not build upon
I’m silicon, trying to find my way into a MILFy blonde
Like that Billabong logo, I’m waving to the shit you on
‘Cause I will not look back after today and say I did it wrong
Rappers are dumber than a Genie whose parents granted no wishes
Probably catch some of y’all washing your man’s bitch’s dishes
I’ll stich a smooth loosie out of deadly components
And I don’t even want to know what composes opponent bologna
Lame brains get knocked solid square out of blockheads
I’m trying to fly the coop with two chickens in my cockpit
Plus a turkey to gobble my knob on the job
I hop on pop with tetanus cleats, turn Seuss stories to sob
Used to be mob rule, stick-up kids robbed fools
Then the middleman got cut out for his pumps and his jewels
And his 8-ball jacket, cooked the code up and I cracked it
I just hit the pipe cleaner, he bent easy backward
Now the bottom bunk rail flails on top
Gravy train tracks caught on like the cash crop
No confederate kingdom, I watch the throne but the king’s dumb
You don’t like it, kiss the finger adjacent to the ring, son.
I woke up this morning on the wrong side of promotion
And noticed over the fence the greener foliage needed mowing
Seated only in the zone of bleeding noses
Breathing, blowing steam and smoke in freezing coldness
Breeds corrosive, imitate my sweeping scope
I’ll leap the boat and teach the proletarians to believe in ghosts
Lethal doses, split into meals and morsels, years and moments
Tears and tokens, beers and roaches, sneers and soda
I rap soul older than togas and olive crowns
Slept on like solid ground, put your quarter up, dollar down
Tap my coffin in a century and check the hollow sound
Big head, wise beyond my age like Rollo Brown
Not a role model, but I’d like to roll with models
Covert hostile, leave you red like an open novel
Perspective often makes the complicated commonplace
I never contemplate your “cooperate, tolerate, corroborate”
Moral mentality, I swim past ocean floor coral forums
And corporate warzones to the warp zone, hoarding misfortune
It’s a game of zilch accumulation so I’ve got to force you out like abortions
For swarming on one too many gourmet portions
And the orphan doesn’t sing unless Warbucks can afford it
When you’re done, just wave your blank flag towel canvas high and forfeit
|

If you’re selling sofas, I’ll overthrow the whole Ottoman Empire
To admire the entire regiment of men fired
I yell “fire” in a crowded theater to give the exit sign
Some recognition, and because the stampede can’t stay hidden
Ad-libbing ambition, deliberately administer
Analog systems manually adjust, spinning the
Magnetic axis, attracting apples and reverse it
Evaluate who’s flyer than true north pointed perfect
Pandemic, seep into the lanky fuse of a cannon
Hold a kite up to a lightning storm, develop understanding
Stuck the landing, but badly off a mad activist backflip
Followed the train of thought into the forest where the track splits
Into mag clips and machinery- two types of tools
One lay desolate by the wayside, the other brings knives to school
Punctured the bubblegum hollow globe and popped it
Obnoxious polyphonic vernacular ain’t a part of this
Lock three circus rings between binder covers, stuff it
In a rusty locker, airport security couldn’t snuff it
They sniffed it and bust the nutshell trying to trust it
Too bad the cut just never cut the mustard
The king buckled his bible belt on native squatters at Times Square
Bought it for a cowrie shell, sold it for a timeshare
Beware, the monster’s might is buried deep within his doom
And it’s a scary thing that looms in pairs when independence booms
Ensuing fumes illuminate the very lewdest reading rooms
The newest recruit is you and every group needs your support too!
I’ve been crossed more times than hot buns and shoelaces combined
The variable to mark a spot, the multiplication sign
The road lined with the corpses of chickens we never laughed at
The eyes of a child with too many chromosomes in his knapsack
More times than the graven image of the greatest offspring
And if I can’t get my cake then I’m scraping off the frosting
Taping up the fleshwounds was a necessary measure
When I spit flames, I cauterize the point where souls were severed
Furrowed brows and pronounced veins the evidence of effort
Observe, every effervescent beverage is a lesson
Moderation, I been nice since there were nine planets
Followed the white rabbit to depths of the wreckage of Titanic
So I suppose the inconvenient truth is juvenile revenge
Probe the piles for the single pin, deny all violent ends
And common sense dictated a Kantian heuristic answer
But who would you obey between the master and commander?
Fresh off the pottery wheel, serve an eviction notice
To your dinky diction’s focus, hocus pocus- plume of smoke and
I can sorta hold a poker face when my deck is only jokers
Chalice runneth over, fine, but next time, please grab a coaster
Dictating incantations in an ancient deceased language
The rake that’ll place discolored foliage on the pavement
The lawnmower to make snakes in the Prarie State grass anxious
I vanquish saints for Peter’s sake and invade the sanctum
Chemical elements of exigence are essential
My exigence of relevance enters through heaven’s pencil
And the evidence is prevalent, irreverence on special
When I Kanye West the pulpit Taylor Swiftly and then hold
A notion, watch it bend and fold like seven deadly tent poles
I will gladly choke the threshold if his neck’s cold
And I’m not a hater, I’m an obliterator, eradicator
Radically disapproving of y’all rats’ behavior
Chase the favor of the savior and promises full as craters
That one just exceed your split ends? Fuck it, I’ll explain later

Great < Greater
03:10

A hand in every pot, a finger in your chili
Deaf to the echoes of shots that linger in the city
Kiddies with midi boxes and shitty problems are little competition
‘Cause I throw up more signs than a deaf bulimic petition
Keep up, throw down, like a show with your meal?
Watch me squander the savages without guns, germs or steel
Great minds think alike, greater minds sabotage
Damaged gods habitualize the recipe for camouflage
Every one a master of the dialects of Babylon
But has to non-aggressively settle for scolding chatterboxes
Scatterplots indicate the trends on democratic backs
The patterns go unnoticed like historic facts and holy acts
By all except percentile-topping spokesmen of apocalypse
The cockroaches anonymous thrive on tainted oxygen
The rest would never follow ‘em, the way alone is treacherous
The lecherous lethargic lumberjackers trudge ahead of us
And grip a grudge but butterfingerfucker broke his toe with it
In fits of fury clutched Pandora’s scabbing wounds and opened ‘em
I stuck a feather in a Yankee shoulder blade and called it liberty
Batshit swingin’ at wild pitches, let’s see who hits with me
Medicine tumbles into a disgruntled body politic
Bootstraps tangled in trust fund morale like “Occupy this!”
And I’m once bitten, twice I bite the fuck back
Runt of the litter I get around like hubcaps
So run laps or get dragged back to the backstock
Perused by sasquatch-looking lettermen in ascots
Frigid dawn approaches as they all clearly resolve not
To change a single thing after the hopeful glitter ball drops
Call it graduation, maturation, however you name it
Still the same old play with plastic cars that roll onto the pavement
That grandma got run over by a Range Rover classic tale
Updated to fantastic scale while onlookers shout “epic fail”
Catch-phrase slot machines spew hashtag complacency
To slavery, not the chains you see but oh, the arbitrarity!
RAWR means “you’re flesh and empty calories” in dinosaur
Stupid picker of the goat behind the final door
Henceforth, I don’t need no psycho’s analysis
To unravel the tapestry pulling on threads of arrogance
Embarrassment’s what you could save yourself, man I’m warning ya
‘Cause you wouldn’t be the first to get all up in my George Foreman and
Well, the predecessors got away with it, but how fortunate
Do you feel at this instant, dipshit, I dare you, read off your coordinates
I’m sorta sick while several spitters turn stale
And right now there’s only one test I’d be sure to fail
I’ll let a lying dog sleep still lest he alert the kennel
And fizzle out between opposing flags of mirth and metal
This classic urban kettle simmers witchcraft from a sick bag
Fostering age-old mishaps, playing pucker up and kiss ass
I’ll dickslap your tinman syntax through the lint trap
Slick as a hydroplane and simple Jack slip crash, shit’s sad!
My ships navigate waterfalls, chasing velocity terminal
Sloppily groping gorillas promise property’s earnable
What a punchline, that’s why I savor all this scattered sunshine
Unwinding toy soldiers and hushing bellicose drumlines
Whether done fine or dun goof’d, I’m armed with a spoof
Parody scoop aloof mutes out of reindeer tracks on the roof
Bazooka tooth fresh out of braces and pizza faces, thanks for playing
I waste my time facebook stalking everyone carbon dated
I’ll take an armor-plated vacation from degradation
Only to arrive at a basement banquet with divine acquaintance.

Conquer The City
03:17
|

Television hurts to watch, Harrison Bergeron type
Curdling the milk with honeyed murder mops that herd the flocks
Of birds atop the phone lines, burn a box of thirty blocks
And polished the moon's dirty spots, telescopically project
Uncertain shots to insert in cops, perfect pots to piss in
Circular bottoms missing, working like common pigeons
Jerking and bobbing for chickenscratch on a currently occupied
Virgin providence mission, worthy dominant Christians
Bourbon mongering spitting sermons, fondling children, spurning ominous vision
Journey onwardly, pilgrim to learn the honor of wisdom
Served promising riches but curved politics glisten
With verbal lottery tickets while herb's not even legit
But herb's popular in the suburbs, Colin you killed 'em
With words, monikers spilled on the earth so the pommes are riddled
With worms, God, could it get any worse? Positive, mix 'em
A curse, bottle of liquid that burst, awesome addiction
To hearse-operant stimulants, first compliment given
Deserves confidence, wish he had heard, all about swimming
With urchins, docile but vicious, they lurk, honest no different
From surface-prominent figures, worthless autonomous critters
Serving bombers for dinner, third entrees for sinners,
Absurd holiday traditions sturdy as logical pillars
I murmur constantly willing that nerds conquer this city
Staring down a barrel of monkeys, sunken chest
Bunkers blessed with the country’s best, happened to flunk the test
Punch to death the arm of more fun than sex
Walking on Humpty’s shattered carcass trying to dump the evidence
Let’s plunder something next using a cunning muscle flex
The humble buzzing breakfast clubbing munchkins blood and sweat
We run in sets like milk from a mother’s breast with guns and regrets
Continually convincing Noah why God won the bet
Stumble into slumber sweetly, another blunder ‘round the bend
Hunting something tore asunder, hunger howls again
Lungs are sluggish from the summer sun and mirror smoke
The ugly drunkard chucked his cup and hovered, subbing beer for coke
Tugging hunches out from under unsuspecting pundits
None of us is above it so we all must knuckle up and love it
So what do I see in the cold, my breath or what I’m breathing?
A sigh of bereavement for the pariah grieving messiah
Heathen for hire heaving with fire breathing I’m tired
Of being, tired of seizing entire evenings, I’m tired of leaving
I’m wired and seeking buyers of decency to admire my frequency
And I’m tired of eating expired meat from the tires
Of jeeps, I require meaning for higher being disguised
As a reason, my eye on the creeping spider beneath all the
Chipping pious veneers, liars and thieves and conniving beasts
Of a thriving breed that’ll size up your creed and decide
People shall die for free, I’m wild leaping
For side B shit designed secretly, shine heat up behind
Reapers that climb trees to find sleep for their minds
Keep from crying, lethal benign scenery
Sigh deep as I dream of the night peacefully

Live Young, Die Fast
03:38
|

He gave her his number, said it was his salary
They laughed, she grasped it happily
He was thinking about starting a family
But she wanted to live fast and fuck casually
She’s got a bunch of pals all by the heart strings
Tangled in the short hairs, who cares, smart things
Too dumb with this one, but it’s fun embarking
On the road of angels, spangled with dark wings
He gave her a ticket, they went to a show
He bought her dinner and drinks, then drove her home
Walked her to the door and leaned in slow
She said “It’s pretty late so I think I’m gonna go.”
She’s got a closet full of pricey hiding spots
Boy scouts leap through loops failing to tie a knot
Before the day she was first offered to try a shot
She was just another wall-sprawled fly to swat
She’s got a body that’ll compliment whatever
She likes how many compliments it gets her
Even in bad weather she rocks tight leather
‘Cause she knows that just like her it won’t last forever
He gave her all of his cash and attention
To try to chase away her fickle apprehension
That sexual tension had him spendin’
Before he took a kitchen blade to her tendons
She kissed him so sweet so mysterious
She told him she didn’t want nothing serious
He turned furious like “Whore, you delirious?
I hit each and every one of your criteria!”
She got nervous ” I just want to see other people!”
And what transpired next was pure evil
He brandished something metallic and lethal
She screamed but her voice was feeble
She’s got locks that curl like dove talons
And a smile so killer it ended up in thugz mansion
He couldn’t figure out what had just happened
Remembered how he tasted wintergreen and touched satin
In a rough fashion, into her flesh he cut canyons
She sunk, ashen, he jumped into a drunk passion
Slumped, spasmed, and hung himself from the one rafter
That snapped, now he looks for a gun and a captive
He had to make a couple quick stops
To dump her lovely bloody cadaver before the bitch rots
Into his head popped a sick thought
After he cleaned his apartment, he headed for the pawn shop
Paid for the pistol with a crumpled fist of bills
Didn’t even count it all, he let his wallet spill
Drove to the park where he used to chill
But tonight he was looking for another kill
Saw her shadow then spotted the source
Crept up and swiftly with such force
Jabbed the gun into her side, she gasped eyes wide
He whispered “Did you think that you would die out here tonight?”
Led her to his car, his senses reeling
Still giddy with a senseless feeling
Skin tingling, palm sweating against the metal
He told her “Get down” and stepped on the pedal
Took her to his place, moving real quiet
It still smelled like bleach and violence
He said “Take off your clothes real slowly
I’d like to give you a chance to get to know me
Before I put a bullet through your temple”
Sobbing, the girl begged “Just be gentle”
“I was once” said the man, then he smacked her
She put her hand to her cheek then he grabbed her
By the trembling wrist, and uttered “Kiss me, whore.”
She turned toward him, someone beat on the door
“Police! Open up or I’ll kick it in myself!”
But he couldn’t just leave her for somebody else
So he shot the girl right in her left hazel eye
Put the barrel in his mouth and he started to cry
“I couldn’t get laid and my life did depend on it!”
Last words of a sick fuck then he bought it
The cop bust in, saw the blood and the bodies
And remembered “That’s that chick who blew me at that high school party”
Damn...

Perpetual Creation
03:34
|

I’ll take your fame, replace your name with a number and then crunch
‘Cause nothing tastes better than a not exactly free lunch
“We won!” shout the kids on the peaks of heaps of classroom fodder
Each one threw the baby up drinking all the water
Mind your manners in this mirror house, remember, you’re a guest
And there’s no such thing as a second-class citizen’s arrest
The litmus test provides the necessary evidence
Of basic requisite to neutralize corrosive eminence
My penmanship protrudes prolifically, signalling misery
The epitome of villainy, sheer malignancy
And I’m stumped like deforestation, the reason is this you see
I’m straight but quite put off by your frequent femininity
Depending on my litany, I might construct a symphony
But differently, not writing notes but planting trees for instruments
And molding prodigies as prototypes of proteges
As to protect my budding legacy if I should go away
Distill my heart in a carton of artisans
Renting a gentrified apartment from partisans with Parkinsons
I only cross the tracks into that part of town when I’m tryna cop
A dime of conversation in an empty parking lot
Harken back to basics, adding negligible products
To reach integrity from the wrist of the exotic
Now, who exactly are you hooligans fooling
Thinking that Call of Duty truly produces a league of shooters
Freddy Kruegers with lugers ain’t as scary as blue collars
And boot-cut blue jeans to three-piece suiters
Looters rootin’ for scuba sleuths snoopin’ on baracudas
Light the buddha, bring the food out It’s past time
To move out of your new house, the banks about to chew out
So I’m in search of a fifth of Christmas spirits from Scrooge house
Sounds strange from a Jew’s mouth but I’m not about
To spout some Hebrew for all of you, now
Brew the Roibos and take a seat, take a knee
I hate to speak about bread dough in a bakery
Plus y’all ain’t cake to me, I hear cranial vacancy
Like every celebrity thinks cheerios are bagel seeds (damn)
And we can bake believe that faith be the safest creed
But holy houses got more saps in ‘em than Maple trees
Plaintiff, please, I got myself a case to plead
I strain to see the resemblance between nature and Maybelline
If God made man out of clay in a day
Then you’re required to be fired before you can say
You’re made, complete with extra-glossy glaze and the face
Of the architect, the artist, the perpetual creation
Grand me the the strength and serenity to beat the path of nature
Act with grace and replace complaints with ladles full of praise
I wake to drown each day- a cookie in a glass of milk
I’m in a class of ill-wishers dishing to get a laugh and fill
A casket, spill a basket in the woods, you’ll soon see who
Is really big and bad or only howling to deceive you
Believe you me, son, the picture’s different in the moonlight
Pull apart and strum the string cheese, now tell me if the tune’s right
Fumes rise from the tombs, might get the best of you slight-
Ly achieved a new height with the destitute residue, fright-
Fully foxes chew bites of the flesh in question
The session price is set, the booth is just right to step in

Stupid Dumb
04:08
|

The dumb don’t speak, the stupid don’t listen
Peruse the playground for that petty piece you’re missin’
The dumb don’t speak, the stupid don’t listen
Munch a mierda meal then embark on your martyr mission
The dumb don’t speak, the stupid don’t listen, yo…
Released to reach the anticipated extra stair
Certain to turn you scared of the emergency flare
Open source, empty magazine, accelerate the atrophe
And justify decay today is just another canopy
I must insult another family to paralysis so analyze
My parables and feed them to domestic animals
Look, dogs may bite, bees may sting
My favorite scene is you, mangled and suffering
And another thing, this insurrection bubbling’s fomented
Unaware of its direction of momentum all these pent up speeches, love confessions
Outrageous, fervid, furious, effulgence from the craggy peaks
Where angels and vultures heard ‘em
Concerned with the youth piercing the moldy petri dish
With a penchant for muzzling huff and puff obsequious Khalifa kids
And a preference for solitude, fortress bore no S
Straddling the border of chin-tilting and dealing cordial threats
Vipers wouldn’t hear him, windshield wipers couldn’t clear him
From blocking the royal chauffeur’s vision, buzzing in his hearing
Leads to, countrymen tearful and gentry fearful
Wax poetic catch it like Posednik, pussy, get an earful
Like, quick as a lightning bolt the doors and blockade
The residual rabid patriots bloody from the parade
telepathically tangle your tummy when the tall tales touch ya
‘Cause I can flow for days when I filibust ya
You’re just a thorn in the side of freedom-fried eagle pride
I play pretend that I’m Charlie Brown’s beagle fly, seagulls cry
Gossip and trivial caper kindling
Not afraid to spin this shindig into a Ringling
I’m better than you’ve ever been, riding decorative elephants
To rooms where the integrity is compromised by mentioning
The all-important fourth wall, hallucinations fading
Capture those colors and learn you can’t purchase a perfect painting
Don’t faint upon the pavement now, no one down here will catch you
Plus scar tissue does not translate well to a granite statue
Infatuated with the best attributes to test aptitude
Placed my order with mall santas, I’ve got you beat by a lap or two
I’ll cannonball into the bath y’all drew for me and boil spectators
Toiling desk labor and soiling the rest for paper
I heard that every mongrel mutt may serve a sunset sentence
So I’ll be prepping my acceptance speech with animation suspended
Contention connects enemy rectums to my appendage
Send ‘em on their way with a severance package and a pension
Or, compress your accolades and saturate the cornucopia
Or, take a bow and take your tired ass to Nova Scotia
I’ll rip a random gladiator asshole out his sandals
Tandem vandals panhandle poison berries for brambles
Amble through the concrete jungle with a can-opening jackhammer
Tracking a rolodex full of dirty laundry, empty hamper
And a hammock woven from scorched flag strips and bandanas
Cashflow immortalize heliotropic plants in granite
The lyrical supremacist outside one word in a box
Substance over presentation, am I purty or not?
Must get rest, must warn nobody
Must ingest zoological heirarchy
When I give a damn, it bursts with a flood, not a trickle
While rooting reflex invalids suck love from a nipple
Duck swiftly, chuck finnicky, cut stingy
What bit me, jump dizzy, snuff shifty
Same clothes, I change flows and bang hoes
(Well not really) Show up with a rose to Jane’s Doe
(That’s still iffy) Alright, I try my luck and draw short straws
But I can one-way videochat with a pornstar
The eyes of the beholder decide, cover your shoulders
And rise up like a soldier only you die older
Italicize, bold it, run and tell it like I told ya
CRYM’s colder, flyer than the most wanted poster.

Searchlights
02:43
|

Searchlights survey scalps scurrying the gridlock
Cage lining stationary wheel with no pitstops
And I tried to creep up sunbeams from lush screens
But the beanstalk wilted alerted by hushed screams of my soaked sneakers squeaking
Dope speaking heathen, broke seasons frequent
But there’s no peak I see yet so I keep believing- Journey!
To the center of a sugar-coated aftertaste
Diabetic sacrifice, 8th grade aftershave
Mayday macrame to pack away the frantic fray
Take comfort in your crockpots, cookware and cabarets
Your bunk beds, beach houses, beach houses, bombs and bomber jackets
The calm before the blast hits enveloped the masses
And sat on their chests, forcing ‘em to stare at the clouds
Too many scuffed their muddy shoes at the gate, wearing the welcome out
All this water under the bridge’ll wash the mural away
So lets disagree for disagreement’s sake
I’m eating high stakes cookie cut from the flank of a rogue bovine
Who jump shot the moon and returned in to time
I remember back in ‘09 this girl revoked my pick
And sent me to the coal mine, thinking it was the gold mine (damn)
So now my blackened lungs take shallow breaths
But never acquiesce as long as blood pumps in a capulet
Too accurate to be adequate, too ravenous to satisfy
Too apple pie to be anti US, too raw to ratify
And I’m high posting, exceeding high dosage
High voltage, I spit calamine lotion
On any rapper making rash decisions like acting skittish
The rainbow doesn’t really end, here’s your pack of Skittles
I’m struggling to steer like a novice asian thief
So in response I’m turning over a sovereign nation leaf
Seasons change, not for long, and when the sun should come around
The raging tide regresses and relationships may run aground
I tunnel out of bagging groceries into Shawshank
Scratched the law blank, I’m indie, not tryna consort with snakes
And now they rob banks in Highland Park, the fuckin’ lions
Start turning on the pride when the order of the jungle’s dying
I’m supplying the dopest lines since cocaina
I’m so science I won’t be tied with the rope I’m weaving
The horse I rode in on- flattened by the train I leave on
And that’s the reason that I frequently get my MC on
Relentless attempts to communicate with the essence
Kept me stressin’ in my bedroom, guessin’ why I ain’t president yet
Depressive sessions effervesce in a mess of seconds
Pressure connects the blemishes settled in my collection
I bless the meddling mentions of my complexion
And render festive jesters relieved by their possessions
Lacquer-lacking actors with acrobatic tactics
Couldn’t match my my status, dismantle the lavish palace
Half-wit captains ask where to go and how to get there
I want to know why before I tread right into dread’s lair
Step carefully, regret any air you breathe
‘Cause all the king’s horsemen collect all debt they concieve
Faithfully cement every latent vacancy
So when the cracks evaporate there’s no place left that’s safe for me

Pressure

Childproof pill bottle cap screwed off from the pressure
Get nailed, hammered and screwed up from the pressure
The flesh above her kneecaps maroon bruised up from the pressure
“Hello”s and “I love you”s used up from the pressure
Camouflage, dog tags and crew cuts from the pressure
But he’s gotta keep his sugar boots shut from the pressure
Semis sensitively snuck on a school bus from the pressure
Stuck in bathroom stall cell eating her school lunch under pressure
Thin as a magazine page tossin’ her food up from the pressure
To find suitable pharmaceuticals and foodstuffs, it’s pressure
The crazy studious race the moon up from the pressure
And cosmonauts plant flags in moon dust from the pressure
Hell, even Superman had to hide and suit up from the pressure

Fables

How could you find your way home when the North star that guides you
Is outshined by power lines, nobody lies to
A deaf man with no eyes, who in high school
Learned about apes who created the bible
The shapes that confine you restrict you and bind you
Bars break bars I’m behind, you can find new
Signs of the time moving silently right through
A crack in your mind the size of a haiku
We understand this planet’s a rental
Everything I do is marked with a pencil
Erased by my rubber sole walking and bending
Impending conception spoils the ending
The message we send to galactic reception
With ample connected static antennas
To upset the active master’s agenda
We act and pretend to be average and special
Math is correct ‘cause the axiom said so
It hurts to hold on, you have to just let go
(Let go, let go, let's go!)
You can bet your asbestos in your chest that I’ll explode like Coke and Mentos
Gasp for breath, but then again, no
See I’m desperate like the friend zone to see heads roll
A dead rose has no less thorns
Hell froze in its death throes, it’s me for whom the bell tolls
At my discount shop we only sell used souls
I could tell you weren’t driven when the hood felt cold
And the wheels turn slower than the pedals, and my head’s so
All over the map, scatterbrain Jane nappin’ in my lap
I capture snapshots with rap and slap captions on ‘em
When I blast, you dash like chlorophyll in autumn
The songs sound better if you bought ‘em
Calm and collected, armor protecting
The heart that attacks the head, darkened legends
Cat call and beckon, martyrs on the seventh
To charge with their weapons, from smashed cars and wreckage
We harbor the seconds of the day when it’s hard to detect the next one
I cut my lip shaving, blood ran to my tongue
I embraced the taste of mortality, took it in my lungs
To become a crooked one like a backslash, wack glass cats get put on pause
Two lines, the alligator snatched up and cracked his jaw
Premium organic satin flow exposed like Janet Jackson
Spanner to the plans of avid glancers at the cameras
Panoramic banners hammer anthems out your mandibles
Candid candles colder than Canada when I handle ‘em
Pillbox on a pendulum when I swing with sublime substance
Hilltops to the pelicans’ beaches in high abundance
I throw punchlines while the drum kicks a beat until it’s broken
This’ll be the dumbest, dopest fable ever spoken
(And keep it going)
Sip the sonic soda slowly so you don’t burn your throat
Inspect the produce for the locusts Moses conjured when he spoke
I smote the local anesthetic, globe is apathetic though
Vocally bowl a gutter baller over after heaven stole
My budding talent, let it grow, cremated into ash and mellow smoke
I laugh at hellish jokes and only travel when it snows
Compose a molecule from atoms and the evening from his rib
The scheming bitch closed her window but she’ll fight for women’s lib
We get dragged through flaming hoops by all the overeager leaders
Might as well pledge allegiance to my penis, thesis equals
Treason to believers in Jesus’s supremest ethos
I shattered the strongest love triangle trying to find the secant
So now I only work on the fuckin’ weekend, never for the week
Survival of the fittest, flyest, illest to wield an obscene pen
Wood grain arrow straight shot the apple off the tree
And struck neo-Newtons brain-dead wickedly defy gravity
Try fathoming twenty thousand leagues and being out
Of all of them, welcome to the shit you recurrently dream about

The Rest

I’m that bird that didn’t fly south
I generate thermal stability with the couplets erupting from my mouth
And sit beneath the constant water droplet ‘till the room floods
Baptized by Old Faithful’s retarded cousin, take a huge gulp
And spit a hundred billion vital molecules plus light diffraction
Over shame parade brigades to match their rainbow badges
We smoke that chicken soup for the soul out of colorful bowls
For every soul embodied my posse dug a new hole
My brush strokes cut throats, lyrics don’t touch most
Ashes in the air, embers fresh from the duck roast
You versus me is the Titanic against a tugboat
I unexpectedly survive and you steroidal thugs wont
So kill the urban legends like Jimmy Henchman, peasant
Or you’ll be staring down Dick Cheney’s weapon, questioning friendships
I haven’t slept in days, that mental sedative
That draped my reality in a faithful daze is getting thin
My heart clenches pumping tap water, recycled with the get and give
Selections fall like Tetris figures, I’m through accepting this
Inspection kills the particles that function sans scrutiny
My lectures purge barnacles that clung to the last eulogy
Used to be populating populating uselessly, foolishly
Abuse an opportunity, never that, bafoonery
Soon to be undisputably bigger than stupid with jewelry
Dubiously say I, praying high, but futilely
Sooner be in the biography section penning alternate endings
And chuckling condescending at topics trending
So what I don’t have distribution, I’ll have your district moving
Step aside, empty-eyed mouth breathing institution
My astronomy don’t recognize your nebulous ignominy
My economy has no sector for you as a commodity
Your progeny propagates problems, I scribble solutions
In conclusion, you table salt of the earth dissipate movement
I’m a time traveler in training, I can get in it, on it, over it
And out of it, I just haven’t figured out how to move through it
But I’m not stupid, I reverse time and emit so much suet
That they’ll have to start equating me to fewmets and sewage
I’m the shit and the colon, I’m the kid that goes bowling
And doesn’t so much as cough when I smell the gun smoking
Only joking, don’t go and get your fallopians in a twist
Like Joe Rogan I factor fear and foil perpetual optimists
The tension in your shoulders cries for tender firm mysoginistic
Entitlement, how dare I ever ask you what the problem is
Uncommon insight from looking inward my whole life
Standing with the trees and snowflakes watching you load dice
Ponder your purpose and propose what you’re protecting
‘Cause what I spit is not the truth, it’s just another perspective
Collectively wreck ships, we run life boat companies!
I’m a monster, that must be why so many turn and run from me
My crystal stair shattered under my combination of avarice
Ambition, potential and plain old fucking flabbiness
But happiness ain’t a feminine finger beckoning hither
To me she’s a regular sister, inevitably I’ll miss her
When she’s off making the rounds with twice-checked lists clutched
Sometimes we argue when she visits, I raise my voice and hit the
Bottle against the bar, my limbs are limp and now I’m ready
To wrap myself in repose, the rhythm’s slow and steady
So I smile ‘cause that sample is is sweet and that line killed it
The world is here for me, I just have to take the blocks and build it
