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

No News 03:33
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 03:46
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

Liquid 8 07:44
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
