Can you get it?/can you last?/can you stand tall?/can you rise?/can you fly?/like a tribe called?/or is it just the mysterious ways/wash over you like waves/end up in your face like someone stand up/bring the light to me someone stand up/bring the soul it’s magic, like a rabbit out of a hat/a savage, rabid beast who’s half as bad/on average Fif is close to the damage/yet the thoughts of lavish make him just half as sad/I bought a lab/named him meth/broke the bad/showed my dad the results and scared him half to death/when half is left I treble cleft/counter the bass without haste and face like a tribe on a quest/when cries are left I seem to trial on/keep the file strong/til I build the machine like Cybertron/so when I speak you know my lies belong/when I preach you know my sermon’s wrong/when I teach you know the lesson’s long/when I reach you know to come along/a song/like it’s fifth from the third/I am to masses what the feather’s to bird/yoga flame to corrupt and absurd/start the game a street fighter/an alpha too so fuck what you heard/or fuck the writer too I’m stuck on a verb/just a character unprepared to/fight the battles/walk into the pasture just to gather all the cattle/not a leader but thinker of the greater/you can challenge me and you will see that I’m the greatest mass debater/narrator of my people/and these evils/and the struggle/ I'm feeling oh so spiritual/oh so lyrical/I punish the throne so my words reach imperial/reach for ethereal/in serial/with raw material/I ponder these thoughts while I'm eating some cereal/so when the day break/I'm practicing zen/with no ill in my heart/I didn't have to pretend/then again since I met the object of my affection i objectively affected connected poison within/i fantasize/philosophize/until I lie/down with my troubles about results I've prophesied/im not a king/not a ruler/im just from the third making sense/im the victim and the shooter/I'm the owner and the looter/im repugnant/the quiet mind to dig into your senses/make you question the republic/I'm your conscious/I'm your reason/I'm the cricket/trust/just bounce for a second while you kick it/ Just bounce for a second while you get it/just bounce for a second while you know/just bounce for your life and the freedom while you feel it/just bounce for the spirit and the soul

If your personal code of ethics was flawed, what would you do? Life, love, and liberty, but you only had two. A mixture of philosophies soothes the sinner in you but it's fodder for the all the fire; the flames become blue. Aren't you seeking things wrong just to make truth, true? A suicidal tendency never becomes new. A ruler sits in shambles, a king with his own rule & a prisoner to freedom, the sovereign becomes you. You can't even see what's happening with the times. I'll stay reciting lines like everything is fine. Space of the outer kind I'm tryna get mine. Space of the outer kind, I'm tryna shine. Won't a riot fill the quiet with poison and hate minds? A Caesar for the masses with mobs to cut ties? Space of the outer kind, I'm trying to get blind. Space of the outer kind, I really want to reflect on life, have it balanced in love, liberties liberation coming down from above. I've said that I'm in the business of fighting war. Come to discover my whole families down with the corps. To the core, flex the evidence in my justice. I could save your whole existence and still you wouldn't trust this. Didn't you see truth in all of your wrongs? Blue flames turn white, bath a sinner in song. The fodder now is consciousness, the consciousness is long, strong. If your personal code of ethics was flawed, what would you do? Give up?

Torture, related torture/I carried sorrow for days/what was the source of/my life's pain/it's centered within a skin tone/when life plays with knives you betta get grown/and my eyes have seen many punishment/given food for thought and couldn't stomach it/now I'm wise and grown/the wit lasted/another year you lit my party with matches/and the fire didn't care what it caught/tarnish the floor with a smile of mischievous thoughts/I don't miss it at all/made it missing it's parts/should have figured it odd/thinking this is my fault/in that cage of ecstasy I was closer to God/I was closer to God/tellin me what you thought/pad the walls with my mystery/maybe it made sense to me/stare into the heavens with my brethren while she visits me/ (Oh god!!!) will you still love me after this? (Oh god!!!) will she still love me after this? (Oh god!!!) will he still love me after this? Yall don't love me. bodies on top of bodies/embrace the motherland/and grab another's hand/hold your children close and try to help them understand/the stage is set you should cross the land/across the burning sands/damn/dreams of social stability/sympathetic lack of real action is killing me/or maybe the will in me/I see the troubles of the world in real time/& lies/so when I say there's trouble/it's execution of real lives/tell me, maybe, what you mean to me/tell me anything and everything or maybe what you seem to be/tell me the truth so I can be the enemy/destroy my population/everything I hold dear to me/tell me now that you can hold me back/tell me now it was provoked attack/tell me how all of my people shape the world/set the tone/but now we're back in black/bullshit/now tell me how all my people lack (they spread their lies in righteous laughter/we are the bodies that their after/can't keep the quiet cause we see you/it doesn't matter we will beat you)

Can you make me feel your love? I'll wait for you inside my dreams tonight. & I ain't never felt this much. Will you tell of my story when I die? tell me/when it all goes down/will you walk away?/I'm afraid of what I'll do/filter through my main/dope when it comes out this way/are you gone ease my brain?/I remember when I bothered/drinking deep the bottle/holla if you feel this way/I'm so gone/opportunities don't come much/seeing sound/i can tell just what you've done/so lose your mind/question the questions/don't be content/don't you count all your blessings/like me/like me/find another way to doubt yourself/but don't you doubt me/doubt me/cause I'm/I need you to tell me I'm A believer Can you make me feel your love? I'll wait for you inside my dreams tonight. & I ain't never felt this much.

Lets bump that soulful vibe as you walk next to me and feel out of control.)

We come from tired nights and broken homes New heights, delivered stones Just think about the Ruthless killing, God willing Please take us home It's a busy day, so much that it's clouding my vision Shes irate and I'm just tired, I wish she would listen The jacket that I bought her reminding me of her daughter The father isn't happy with my position I like that I dig the way that I'm the bad guy This creature is a tragedy like a thorn in my side This level of creation screams hell It watches me with persecution as I drown in its well She can't wait for the day she lets them go So she can be with her new man So she let's them know She saids baby girl, I know I'm what you need But I can't hang around while he puts his hands on me The bastard is a spawn of something nasty, it's past me The things you see aren't classy enough If I can get something better coming down from these heights It's alright, I'll come back after tonight The way I make my ends is full of broken dreams I never let my father talk to me, couldn't hear over my mother's screams It's true that life is all of what you make it I'm making love; why don't I feel what I've created? Is this pressure to keep it up? I'm feeling stuck enough between a rock and bad habit What if I let him grab it; do with me what he will I can go fix a habitat breeding more of me still This Vicodin seems to keep me covered up I hope that that's enough Living this way is synonymous to an uppercut Straight to the upper gut I'm living fast so what? I solve my problems what the fuck. My mommy left my daddy, so I'll do what I please The new guy only used her so I'm destined to be Just a repeat & in fact, actually Yeah, I'm just a daughter that never has known a father In reality I'm feeling kind of hopeless So abstracted with the dopest, the most-est If I can find something better I'll come down from these heights It's alright, I'll come back after tonight They say society is all I need They say society is all I know
