There was a place in time when everything stood still/ legacy wasted while you patronize your skills/ shoot to kill/ lose your will/ find your fill/ victimized living life/ trying to write something ill/ you can call it confident/ you can call it elitist/ just don't mistake my arrogance for weakness/ so you can get lost/ kick rocks/ or other ways to beat it/ I gained another mouth and ain't no one else trying to feed it/ you can find me up late at night and early on the weekends/ I love it when the low end from the other room starts to seep in/ using sneaker boxes for acoustic treatment/ so boost the frequence/ and use tubes to reduce the peaking/ the growling of my stomach keeps my wife awake at night/ peace to all the people out there trying to make it right/ I love the purpose but I have to say I hate the fight/ so I'm about to take this drum and see if I can break it right/
chorus/
You can make money/ or you can make excuses/ which one will your children remember you using/ losing out to those hard on the movement/ cooking up the blueprint/ for some self improvement/
So you can act like you know me/ but you're better off rolling slowly/ only looking out for homies/ and taking scalps for trophies/ Sophie's choice looking for which one to give up/ like the thought that goes through your head when you hear this is a stick up/ trying to live up to great expectations/ amazing race/ makeshift patriot/ laced with the basics/ trying to make it in this day and age/ where you gotta watch what you say/ cause it's too easy to get caught up in the matrix/ everybody's face lifting/ slap jacking their arrangements/ so I went back to where I started/ backpacking on the pavement/ never struggling/ just reconstructing a better statement/ through better patience/ more purpose and less persuasion/ more verses and less coerced discrimination/ hurting to keep working for something worth more than I'm making/ anguish mixed with motivation/ and the motive to keep going passed the pain and never stray from the foundation/
Big fan of artists challenging religion. "Just another internet tough guy, hiding behind the keyboard watching the dust fly off of the Bible he hasn't read in ages. Taking shots at Muslims, Atheists & Pagans." as one of many succinct lyrical examples of creative prowess. icarusignite
It's freaking phenomenal, that's why. I listen to Omniverse every single day several times but that's no0t to say there aren't some fantastic rivals to that song such as Broken Symmetry, Defiant, Spectacle,5th, .8, Frame of Reference, Beachfront & Interdimensional Council of Greys icarusignite
I've got Metaphor Swordman on lock but there are some rad tracks here such as Flower Girl, Prison Planet, Dopamine Notes, .7, Snowflakes & Flowsnakes. Lyrically eschelons above the rest. icarusignite
