Yo shit is tragic the way I'm about to reap havoc On everything you thought you knew but shit happens So I'm tapping the string watching it vibrate Got a theory on how to make you people girate Don't always fly straight, sometimes I zig zag Like running from gators or smoking from big bags Now some brothers dig that, others might get offended But I don't tend to operate under false pretenses It's offensive, so pretentious Dilluded into thinking life happens in 3 dimensions Running through space and time like you don't give a fuck But when reality sets in want to act awe struck like Aw shuck, poor little me Well I'll seranade your sympathies with a flea symphony And 300 centipedes so the pitter-patter of feet Will put your baby ass to sleep - now ain't that sweet? And when I speak through the glass can you taste that cheek? When we meet and I blast is that paint going to leak? Better think before you ask when they flash that heat Some people out here dying to eat So when I preach to the mass, is your ass going to see? Or will you keep to the back with your mask on G? When you sleep it'll last so don't ask on me See a bunch of folks just trying to breathe So watch me reach out and grab it This life you can't have it Unless you just willing to wild out and nab it Then split it and bag it, avoid the toe-tagging Be the antagonist red winged dragon Flaming and scorching, it's more than misfortune The screaming and anguish that comes from this torture It's worse than before with a promise of more And they keep pushing forward but don't know what for

That's how it happened Whenever BK started rapping Toes started tapping, necks started snapping Now it's time for some action Watch out - in just a quarter of a fraction Got you reading my name like closed caption While I'm blasting with a passion Forming new dimensions when I'm atom smashing Check my DNA mapping Patterns are beyond your ability to match them Catch them in a orderly fashion Typically I'm telling cause I'm not the one asking Pardon me for that whole in your artery Ought to be less hornery when you bother me Take that from an out of whack mic fiend Break backs with your double stacked pipe dreams Fake jacks got you tip toeing lightly Want to hate Kat but your sister really likes me Yea you know who it be Shorty in the cut blazing up on trees Banging in the streets with Giotto beats Got this money on my mind so that's not your cheese Now I got your freeze - It's elementary It adds up to a higher level pedigree Paul put it best when he said let it be Trust y'all don't want to fuck with B A D That's DOA on a DOE so better think twice for you CO me Have you on your knees begging me Oh please False hoping that you call police That's the only sound that you hearing now No one around to be found when you screaming out Little angel destined to be a demon child It'll change you and everything you dream about At least that's how it was written The day that BK started spitting Heads started splitting, blood started dripping For just the price of admission

Settling to bed with the enemy Some of you at home saying she ain't kidding me The epidome, lock-jaw jittery Sugar plus spice as she walks off bitterly Middle name Hilary, thought she was classic Had to return her when I found out she was plastic Now it gets drastic, brother wants my ass kicked Told him he could eat it like a bite of a Vlassic Straight up jurassic, pre-neanderthal Late night clubbing with a bag full of aderol Girl got a pretty face but got no ass at all Thought I was going deep so I passed it off lateral Not half bad at all, battling with matadors Frisky like a dingo so I might just jab a jaw Catatonic dialogue, Catastrophic fire ball Catalytic sounds start to drowned out your epilogue I am the thing that you lack most Intolerant of lactose, they call me con leche Front row at your roast, making passes at the host Running circles around your game like Messe Should have taken beter notes off my A essay Got a text from your girl on honeymoon saying she missed me This may come as a real shock But she prefers white water rapids over Colorado rocks Got her Colorado spring with my hollow tip swing Envy ain't a issue when I'm intimate with things Got an issue with them rings so I threw them out the coop Singing feed the birds 'cause I'm fresh up out of soup Always take a double scoop not with the cone Little bit of caramel and lots of the foam Cherry in the middle when the hot shit is on And it's making her melt on the block with a moan In-flamed skin abolish fleshy pokeman´s a prophets sin envy in the henny cup pipe dreams low kitty don´t like it when the cock crow rocket rearranging this one eyed cobra in my pocket with intentions that are evil to incert inside a glory hole now I found a reason to beat it a portion extorded a season to shake it abnormaly naked demolishing demons collecting the semen I thought she was vegan a nigga might eat it this is veggies or vag a situation you can cut with a knife if you got it lerana bobbit was envious from a dick on a hobbit so she took a stab last week I had sex with a tall geek over 6 feet underground with BUP watching me baby G and lucky linx it makes 3 but ain´t no need to fuck around insane souls abolish fleshy pokeman´s a prophets pole This is envy in a henny cup

I'm blacked out in a blue sedan Can't feel my face, making trails with my hands... I am not a nice guy, but nice try, don't get it twisted I stay high to save lives you fucking dipshit You missed it, a mental maniac and a misfit Polly want a cracker? BK will steal your biscuit Like wearing your girls lipstick Said she liked to party so I got her on some liquid Spazzing like a freaking epileptic Should have put it back in the closet where she had left it Probably should've never said it Now she's bugging out finding christ on a head trip Ah fuck it I ain't trying to regret shit Spitting out both sides of my mouth like a cleft lip Cutting it up like a technic Shorty gonna want it, yo shorty gonna get this Shooting from the right and the left hip Four finger ringer got her screaming like some left kids Party foul in second stall, that's not what those shelves are for Got you falling back and forth like triple digit basketball Passinig out while jacking off, coked up like Hasselhof Rapping at some actors acting like their at my casting call Fuck your weak ass metaphors and simalies, remember me? Last school assembly kicked your ass in spelling bee Knocked you out the honey tree, bitter sweet the memory Your pain and aguish resonate until it sings a hymn to me Guess what? I already forgot your name Your face looked a bit familiar if it's all the same But I'm fucked - and getting vibes off your dame That shit always tends to happen when its ball and chain Brawn or brain, I only call it how I see it And plan on leaving here knowing Victoria's secret Too horney to keep it as she goes in deep Thank God I got the keys to the jeep

Shame on you simpletons staying in the middle when We need a little higher percentage of your adrenaline Fill them in like a whole country full of sardinians Pack them in tight then I start spitting tenements Bright like a filament, kite sending Benjamin Tight as a twenty-twen wrapped in a Philly skin Like being different in spite of your sentiments Might reinvent a kid right when you into it Enters in the feminine, proud and preeminent Shining so much light looks like I'm glistening Shimmering like a chandelier made with kindling Dwindling only if the listener ain't listening Oh we on this again? Better start delivering I'm a be assembling disciples of the discipline Sword as the written pen, more for re-scripturing If you missed the message I'll be sure to be resending it Get back, Get down, get... Silly men want to play chief like they be Indian Missing in action whenever I start crippling Splitting tin soldiers in half cause they be mini thin Figuring its time for that ass to get a thicker skin Better start a regimen of minerals and vitamins Look like you need medicine the way that you be trembling All star veteran, so damn hot I'm blistering Varsity lettering, leaving you all cindering Ha back with the synonyms Swinging to a fro when I flow like a pendulum Sweet like cinnamon, pumping your adrenaline Diminishing your profits like a steady drop in dividends Dipping in your margins with my hand up in the cookie bin Came up in to implement a style that's kind of militant Setting sail like Gilligan, I'm one in a million Try to be indifferent but can't deny you feeling it

The game of life, a masquerade of good and evil A trivial pursuit amongst the angels and the demons Selling fools gold whenever knowledge is the secret That's why so many working hard to keep it The message has been leaking through subway tunnels and back streets Back room parlor games and back woods half speak That's deep - quietly the mass lulled to sleep While the master's awake counting sheep The future looks bleak reminded while I quietly observe How the present leaves the past undisturbed, but not in reverse Don't want to make the situation worse but it's a fact that sometimes the truth hurts Like why we've got the projects or why we're treating people like objects Passing over love for better prpspects - stop changing the topic You had the ball but you dropped it - left the flight plan up to the cockpit Look into my optics, see what I see, where I've been The path of enlightem´nment's within - Their goal is to win My goal is to roll like the wind - flow through the soul like a hymn (amen) Spirit unlocked like a monstor, unlocking the thoughts that'll haunt ya One last cilantia - mortality a fate that'll taunt ya Have you falling back on your haunches No room for the weak when the guise of morality is preached And the bitter's getting mixed with the sweet Like salt on a peach - More for you to squeeze in your cheeks While the self gets lost underneath So let me speak with my def tone, reach into your headroom Search the four corner 'for you fortify the headstone Teach when they dead wrong, seek where the lights shown Peace can be found where the beats and the mics on No doubt about it, this is how its going down You could try to go around it but just end up getting clowned Turn off the radio but don't eliminate the sound Lace up your runners, don't wait for them to show you how Time and time again, this is how it's turning out If the blind are leading the blind, we need new leaders now.

Who am I to tell you what to do Who am I to know how it goes Sometimes I feel like I can fly Sometimes I feel like I can see the future Transformation through my beer goggles I see secret trails from falling stars after birth of baby monsters crawling frolicking back to the way that we were the way that we are yes skinny jeans and men dance in trans infested labirynthe rainbow coated cocktails & cocaine mixed with absinthe cause daddy was absent I adapted to being a has been like wiping up old semen or learning german in a class room it´s a jungle out there so let´s make music with baboons shall we back to the future i´ve seen the past passion for singing keys that make us laugh get our ex-on take one so we´re feeling gas´d we can feel the ending of the haggard ragged package of sadness tragik bastard actors mastered black rappers future horror showing stealing napsters kat bad backwards happy hippies popping poppers chilling swallow sickness thriller seven signals golden nipples slober holding potent lemons limes twisted sister listen I´m a projection in the fullest erections in it´s newness protection in a new nest hyperactive as in broads stress a psychic in a glass dress a misfit with a black fist corroded ninja with a steal dick a barbarian with a gay twist ya´ll feelin me then touche´ this it´s sex in walmart next to the dusche section type shit while willie wonka walks in consciousness i see the future fuckas fuck the future suckas

I'm just saying where we staying they gonna keep on taking All this trouble in the jungle, if we stumble, well, we ain't gonna make it, no They keep trying and they lying all the time but baby we can't fake it Don't cry, dry your eyes tonight - everything's gonna be alright I ain't ever gonna quit, I ain't ever gonna budge Even if I ever slip, I ain't ever giving up This life is all you get in this world, you see And I ain't planning on leaving it early... Take another sip to numb the brain, take another trip down memory lane Yea some things change, but mostly they just stay the same Like how we keep keeping trapped in the game - The shit is insane How they trying to lock us up all, dog Taking long hauls on buses tossing us over yard walls That's why you tend to find us tussling in bar brawls Or hustling some broads trying to get their bras off Pick your poison if your looking for the cancer There's a million and one ways to find what comes after These days one percenters be the number one factor If they think they coming back I guess they'll find out when it happens But for me it's another road ahead Avoiding the paths that so many have been lead We got a saying, goes 'Tried and true' But to me, seems like a chosen few... Before my time, it's enough to go and blow your high Its enough to make you blow your mind While you're starring down the barrel of a Colt 45 And it's starring back dead in your eye It happens in this life, that's why I'm counting my blessings The very essence of my being a reminder of the lessons From the past to the present, but I still don't know why We've lost so many and I'm saying 'mama don't cry' Shed a tear for the many, I've shed plenty But it still hasn't quenched the fire I got in me They say that God gonna send me back to hell But sometimes feels like I'm there, so it's hard to tell Most days I'm just trying to keep my head above water Spent most of my life trying to be my father's daughter Thrown into a world of chaos, not much to offer Just a penny for my thoughts, another penny for the coffer How can this be What is happening What I've seen with my own eyes Lord help me believe

Knock knock - who got the keys to the lock Make sure when they come you don't get popped Tic Toc - Who winds the hands of the clock World keeps spinning and it ain't gonna stop Word to the wise, never jumps never flies Never gonna win if one never tries Tired of the weak and weary alibi's Heaven rains down when the last dove cries Them things that go bump in the night When it gets dark don't wanna catch fright Them things that bump bump in the night That'd be us so turn out the lights Now that you're hear may as well come close Nothing to fear, ain't afraid of no ghosts Don't disappear until the spirit has awoke Then rise, rise, rise when the sun comes... Rain - keeps falling down Down, down on me I got you feeling that drop no need to remind you Fade it all to black with lyrics that'll blind you Leaving you confined to a very tight space No evidence or trace, it has all been erased Your memory laid to waste, what you call a cold case No just cause or plausible escape Seems to be a harsh fate, but many can relate Whole world out of order, It's why the people losing faith... wait It's not too late - There's a stairway to heaven 'for we knocking on them gates Predetermined mind state got you on a blind date with Manifest destiny at a prime rate

You say a lot of things, but you don't really mean it Want to act tough when really y'all scarred You say a lot of things, but you don't really mean it So I'm calling your bluff and I don't really care Talk is cheap when the words that you speak Mean very little and we need something deep You are what you eat - so be careful of the thoughts that you preach The sauce that you leak, the gloss that you seek is all lies, flossing a permanent state of demise Blinded by shine when you open your eyes The gold and the diamonds shown like a prize Owning your pride - What part of selling out did you not get or realize It's all a guise Music from the soul gives strength to the people Those in control want to use it for evil Case in point: the eye of the needle Might fit a camel, but not a bunch of heathens So if seeings believing, what do you think your videos are teaching? Brain bleaching, white washing You can be reach but what's it really costing Last time I checked on things that we need It had nothing to do with envy or greed Knowledge is the fruit so I'm planting the seed Devil's work done when there#s no good deeds No good leads, hell to high water Ashes to dust in the name of our father Fascist thugs screaming why bother Paint a pretty picture and hung it on the alter So get down on your knees, pray to the paper of cowardice thieves Just know that you have been deceived The jewel that they keep is that you can be free...

And I'm back in before I ever stepped out Stepping off of the 8th onto the 9th cloud No silver lining, just shades of grey To match the blackness my mind portrays Some are sooth-Sayers, others just say Whatever passes their glasses with a blank gaze I fade back into the mist It can be quite frightful on nights like this Go ahead, go and take another sip Another dip, it's time for another trip Back to the land of the lost for starters Think you've got a grip then it kicks in harder Maybe should've taken only part of The little piece of paper that makes you smarter Cause you're feeling kind of twisted now Blood pressure's up, sweat percolates the brow You're looking kind of bug, pupils stretched out Mayday, mayday - this ship is going down Into the abyss, trapped in a world behind my eyelids oh shit, just might be losing my grip think quick, maybe move a little bit Whop it out with some banging bass tunes Traveling a maze through distant space moons A paradox of riddles that you must blaze through Looking for the answer but it won't save you Page 2 of the mystery, breaking it down to fine tune simplicity Exclusively, but non-exclusive My mental plane a wide range of conduits Fuse to it, energy so pure Tapped in the core before we go forward Oh Lord, I can't take it anymore Following the bright lights down the corridor... Transform your reality Tripping through the desert like Mickey and Mallory Got you traveling light like low-calorie An unknown assassin with a high-priced salary Oh man, I must be out of my mind Think I've lost the plot but I feel so alive Brain waves percolate to mile high I can feel my anatomy from the inside Stumbled out of the bathroom Looking like a pharmaceutical type classroom What did I ask you? I can't remember dog Looking over my shoulder while I'm lost in thought A heavy fog, starts to surround I'm feeling kind of nauseous, I'd better sit down Get drowned from the waves rolling over Got skills, in my mind I'm Casanova Drifting, tripping, curious kitten Spitting with the blurriest vision Smitten mit the furious friction Sifting it's the nerdiest diction I guess you could say that I'm lost when I'm out It's OK I don't really want to be found Back away slow before you hit ground BK from on high, that#s it now!!

This be the one you looking for, other MC's can't do nothing Don't get mad that's just really how it seems to be Just cause bad be banging and burning up MC's Do the math hot as fire to the tenth degree Stirring up a symphony, clear enough so I repeat This be the one you looking for, other MC's can't do nothing That#s right I said it so you heard it here straight from the source Got to get it otherwise you just be getting lost I be breaking bad while mostly they just flaking off Naked soft, fake and all, making way for baby paw This be the one you looking for, other MC's can't do nothing Who that?

Front to the back in here, your people know me They ain't stopping shit, or try to slow me What be the crack is clear, no scream it for me This be the one you looking for, other MC's can't do nothing Where my soldiers at, where my mothers at?
