about

Rope-wrapped fists dipped in gorilla glue, thrust in a bucket of rusty caltrops.

lyrics

The folly of facing TaliRod, molotov acknowledgements
Split the baby, ways of Solomon, razor to Gollum grins
Rod Strickland slicker than the olive squeezed in bottles since
Forget a vowel they bought a limb, the price the cost of sin
Bob Costas in prosthetic skin, to mask the monster, let us in
Splinter cell inside the trojan horse, remorse, indebted kin
The medics spin hermetically sealed fields of dreams within it
I hold my plowshare like a sword no screams diminished
A beast admitted for a moment for his own safety
Watching shadows creep on white walls so hazy
My son dial is a phone call every seven days
Gone to seed, my voice travels in a fettered maze
Plead the case until the 12 became conjoined twins
Rose colored glasses, acid in my ointment
Freudian slips twist anointing the next to save us all
Rise above the storm I made to take a grain of salt

(ACT-1)
They rap corny ad naseum
Avoidin Battle, They fragile as cracked porcelain
As a kid, I was taught that your soul is the cost of sin
So I sold that shit and now I’m guaranteed to always win
Wanna toss a life vest to the less fortunate
Trying to keep they head above the water like a porpoise fin
Trying to be kind While I’m still looking at this side of the coffin lid
But dealing with you awful pricks is tortorous
We Rush the stage like a smash-and-grab
Nowadays the game attracting pussies like a bachelor pad
Once they hear the VLTR KMBT collab
rappers getting quiet like Rakim when he was signed to Aftermath
Your output and your work ethic is the worst
Sankofa put out 2 albums since I started this verse
Hard at work on producing art that’s regarded with worth
only rap part-time, which is why your shit hardly works
fans reacted to your last shit like a fart in church
the shit you dropped before that - None of us hardly heard
The truth is here and, I’m sorry, it probably hurts
Godless smirk plastered on my face while I watch em squirm

(Tali)
I spew a fluent mucus storm everytime the music roars…
Moving with the smoothest form…I’m a sturdy proven horse…
You’re a stumbling newly born…A dime a dozen donkey…
Don’t fuck with a unicorn…you’ve been warned…
Used to pour liquor out for the lost flock…
Until inflation got me figuring out it’s a lost cause…
We’re rotating upon a caustic rock that does not stop…
So at times I keep a hot broad in my pocket I call Glock…
Used to call her Taurus but she got a little too judgy
Chugging all those 45 Colts made her middle too pudgy…
Never will a bitter crew touch me…my dudes are literal monkeys
Dragging their knuckles through muddy waters
Mumbling to the instrumental for come clean…
Whether pondering the truth or steady mobbin in the zoo…
The difference is minimal…got that from a shaman in Peru…
Should have been born a dog so I could go jogging in the nude
Phew…this animal cookie got me feeling awfully loose…
