Aerial burial to stereo in utero from a far far away ago
Archeo, Talley Ho Ecstatic to you Chryo when you find what you're looking for
Undercover but they know where you are
Find another place to cultivate it

We all want to be thugs, but it’s never enough
Whether it’s the feeling of chasing maybe the feeling and rush
And just a brush with the law touched my circle of trust
And in my situation bugged, I’m keeping it hushed
It’s unnatural plus work be done tactical
You’re either sullen or your wreck’s not practical
They cut the corner with the knife in their hand
We take the lean on and we'd do it again
They walk around like they got something to spare
A true machavellian would not even dare
Da bull
Right back in and just playing the Jumanji
Vines grown in through the windows behind me
You walk so loose hold it down so tightly
Groove like an OG cruise on the nightly
Homie right beside me yo crime three-thousand
Trapped for the cataract larger than housing
Makin dope deals still eating eatin oatmeal
Well it’s real to be hard but ain’t hard to be real
We can play it so loudly you gotta remind me
When mistakes getting higher that’s the name that alongs me
Before that they won’t remember it gets foggy
Stories go short like a tail on a Donkey
The crime done wrongly has no self alignment
Before we cut away and then shine like a diamond.

‘Cause life’s too short, it’s just a beautiful Haiku
Happily not after completing the cycle
Telling your rightful heirs to bare thrones
Carrying the microphone make them aware of they vitals
A father a brother a son leader and trifle
Walking on thin ground like a ballet recital
Hiding guns in bibles instinctive primal
This decree to make peace depends on (A rifle/our rivals/arrival)
‘Cause love ubiquitous, never outmaneuvered us
Have to keep the movement up even in a montage with
camouflage suited up and still standing out
respect is due, but not handed out my casual
plan to action ran about a can of liquid satisfaction
Harem out the homies doin mad subtractions
Open new horizons, with new interaction
While I never showed while they was maxing
But I’m asking. Too late to tell when they be passing
I’d rather let a sicko than to know it’s my last when
It’s a party or the funeral you ended up
crashing You understand it’s everlasting
For the memory
that we stay behind
On the avenue
that we took in stride
Could not run it back
Never live it down
When we pour one out
Salut
Libation is the affirmation. We taste liquor not
to get twisted but to send the ones we miss a salutation
My homie passed away when he was barely
sixteen when his caddy turned colder than an avalanche
He never had the chance, to wipe his mama's tears.
Fogging up his windshield as it shattered to
a million pieces. Shit, he had so many drinks
He didn’t even notice when he heard the tires screeching
(Screech) Head spinning he was full of venom
And I was spiderman, trying to reach the good within him
Wish I could tell him pop the clutch and put in in reverse
‘Cause popping bottles like stepping on the throttle but
You in a herse. Yeah, I miss the conversations
Blowing smoke like the exhaust, now you higher than the
Constellations, now I’m standing with this liquor bottle
Pour a little out to lift your honor

In the middle of the night I was on with intel
Set sail want the wheels to spin well
Full of topics, news and gossip
Believe what you see and you read is toxic
The bag full of flames and I call that hot shit
You can’t stomp it out whether now or nineties
Walk red and talk the bull, define this
But no delivery and they might not find this
In confidence
A thread has been spun
To tie on your finger
and watch it grow
yeah they got you covered
no where to go
A fabricate
A garment to show if no news is good news
Then why'd you know the tallest of tales
Vrai ou Faux?
L I L A til tomorrow

Torrid on the floor, and said that I can't take no more, no nilla mi amore, when I wait for....day to turn to night and hide you underneath an eye, the mercury will rise, on the fine line.
Cause you cannot be away from me babe when I'm running the fever, to every girl in the world with the swirl yeah I'm running to you.
Animals roaming, the tour continues
globe may be warming that cold that is in you
jungles are swarming, wild adventures
become the beast in confiding intentions
we are relearning inside of convention
fire is burning so pack your possessions
deep in the journey, fever has set in
knowing she carries the deadliest weapon
tropical storming, call it a blessing
call me a monster but hear my confession
no man's an island, none have exceptions
all that the creatures we seek for affection
are down to domesticate taboo creations
love for the wild is all my sensation
what did we wait for? no vaccination
no representing upon our invasion

See what we wanna be that weapon of the masses
Put it to a rhythm make it set it to a magnet
Rules of engagement evolve and establish
I don’t wanna challenge what they want us to have it’s a light show
Lackluster hype show back bust story told
Ending but it’s not we discussed it so I’ma make
right the offence is rubbish shield stays
foggy captain’s log we will be with the
mob like something on a promise
Stick to the script like bones in the closet
Rock is the start from your home to your office
Strike with no evidence straight off the top I be headed in
But the downer is a sedative
And yo the past is a relative here save the sedatives
The last man standing will never be credited
There is territory in the line draw in sky
Foe is made about the pros we go to wars and
Side to fight against the allies all lies told
Come undoing of the bun eyes good eyes gold
Young but they gung-ho jump through the gun smoke
Told em it’s a long race now they wanna run slow
watch with a long face everything’s done so
premeditated there is nothing to be supposed
Won’t even shave ‘cause there’s nothing I will cut close
See my reflection when I swing into Something
front row up close uphold utmost
Rhyming and reason I thing I got a couple
Find me a beat and the time we’ll eat
When the bomb’s on the baseline mind’s on asleep
We march to a drum line time that’ll keep and
combine to a heat-seek find your physique
You say that it sucks though the world’s bout to blow
My whole empire’s got a long way to go
You sign me the deed for the rhyme that I read
One life to die with one promise to keep
There is territory in the line draw in sky
Foe as made up by the pros we go towards a
Side to fight against the allies all lies told
Commandeering of the blood as good as gold

Replica

What is it?
Takin a photo, they never detected a duplicate
exuberant never intuitive
Try and deny your redo in this foolishness fallin away gregruitous
easier than it was shedding influences let something pour like a fluid
this personal quest path is circuitous more to this music than doin this
who is this replica more misconstrued when the free than what your choosin
I’d rather be alone than loosin one more tip and it ain’t gratuitous
First yourself and someone else
Think you’ll make one more band think it’s felt
but you see but I can’t tell
that someone else but to you it’s a notch on a belt
We were shown the replica
amid repose the fortuna
The call was loud but no one herd could be the lead when lead astern

If it’s down to the moment, and it’ll be the last
If the sky’s on fire and about to collapse
And they still wanna ask me makin all the motions
A star’s supposed to burn for the galaxy we know
But there’s no returnin no escape the journey
and I really wouldn’t plan on departin too early
I wanna watch but what will we observe
if the globes gone wild dun already occured
But presserving the pause when givin me applause
droppin all jaws just lookin at in awe
I capture the rapture after disposal
the perfect exposure is flow in the nova
Hopefully, I’ma take a moment
Make the matter like hell but a little more flattering
Red black shadowy and earth shattering
yeah this right here is the last that’ll ever be i'mma take the final moment put it to ya
ooooooooooh

Submergin, not urgent search for breath but losin intertia.
No motions, just coastin, free market closes and opens
No emotions let em go we arrive to the top acapella go
Wanna let them know, all in a commotion someting will pop to the bubble we be blowin
We sittin atop, you would think we was floatin. It looks so good without the sugar coatin
I hope but it’s down below we plunge in the pungent the end of the road
And down to the dungeon I come up slow what will we become when it’s said and done
‘Cause it’s a whole lot a talk when they value one but bound to the back are the salutations
We sat there wonderin and calculatin the outcome how they approxomatin’
Salty solutions are not included, Disillusions, it’s just music
There’s no confusing the sound for the movement
So hold your breath till it’s gone and that’s what’s fluid
