lyrics

Verse 1:
Living life as digits on computer screens, impermanent like passing frames in a movie scene// we're just actors in a scripted reality TV sitcom, its all fun and games until after someone gets shit on// the people dishing hits can't see what their position is they seem to think their mission's to build an ego through viciousness// the cats receiving are seeing but not believing it acquiescing to beatings not conceiving what the meaning is// some watch this darkness fall for illusory purity, and let the light of freedom sink deeper into obscurity// distorted facts create a paranoid obsession with the military force in the oligarchy's possession for protection of a hollow-vision coppertops connect with// its all entrenched in the stench of Uranian retrogression a spinning human progression in self-destructive directions, but I'm just an emcee this is just poetic expression...


Verse 2:
Living life as a network of highways, which road do you travel on? most take the corporate fork-toughed shortcut exit to Babylon// where self-realization is next to never contemplated, and virtue gets discarded devalued and obfuscated// the jaded once-optimistic lose their vigor at the sight of it, they can't see the hopelessness reflected in their environment// its tiring trying to win against and enemy that fucking faceless, while circumstances constantly shape shift// I'm just an insular subversive verse penciler with a crew of emcees trying to convince the dense to deter from insolence// on soundscapes by a sonic misfit, when mercury brings liquid fire the music hits with the swiftness// can I get a witness? if you claim you aint racist you're fronting if you see someone who looks different than you and make assumptions// (wake the fuck up) you're caught up on superficial projections, its time to free your senses from your iceberg perception...
