lyrics

Armor plating makes the cipher complete
Craters start to caving, taken in the price of the beef
Enticed to retreat the tax we pay is sly with deceit
Some back in days with math appraising sacred mics and the speech
Shout to Serf supplying righteousness, heat
So you can find me, mighty rhyme providing riding this beat
Trying to squeeze myself somewhere between society’s creeds
Fighting viruses of piracy greed, while I’m trying to breathe
Performing surgical strikes on scrubs who doctor images
Kennyskywalker lifts aloft the thought so limitless
Ink running rivulets of lava, penmanship catches wreck
Live from days of bassinets the pagan masters wept
Survey the stanza’s depth standing at the edge,
toes gripping on the creaking diving board, we know the ledge
We don’t believe in hype and war
Phantom badges nestle stealth just beneath their cloaks
We refuse to pay their price for sure



A life so pure keep the knife handy just to cut the bait
And walk away from the flustered horde
They must adore
Left them hushed, agape
Guarding what? Some rusted rustic gate
The martyr up to a plate that runneth over such is hate
A summoned chauffeur for the getaway but we are wising up
Never lead astray shiny items eyes adjust
The geyser busts, we stay moving like MacGuyver does
Making what we need from what we’ve got, that’s the plight of us
Historians might deny it was but we’re the fly deluxe
Set to march forward charging forth to ride the bus
Breaking bonds of all provided cuffs, we’re making songs
Creative pawns taking over boards, past the breaks of dawns
Commodore 64 squares staring at the stratagem
Passengers on perilous paths surpassing Nazareth
Find me in the lab again without the coat of paint to buff
Visualizing vocal murals that I’m later raising up
